It was so f***ing weird.
And hes sitting there.
Hes sitting there for a moment.
And then he lifts his hands.
He has a drill in it.
And he turns the drill on.
And he puts the drill to his ear.
And he starts pushing it in.
And then it goes from there.
Thats the start, right?
Thats how it starts.
And then I think you see… another kid…
