Then after that we're back to the very first character we meet who I could have sworn was already killed. Making sense of this movie is challenging enough sober, throw marijuana and alcohol into the equation and a flow chart becomes a necessity.
My comment wasn't saying that only someone who was high would have to use a flowchart to understand a movie, but that only someone who was high would actually make a flow chart to understand a movie. Of course, maybe film geeks just do stuff like that. *shrugs*
