When Alice is out with Bill she experiments with "torpedos" and "Speed". Both drugs are like riding shooting stars through the Milky Way, but a trillion times better. First she is a little bit scared of Speed because Bill has to inject it right into her arm. When the drug works she can hardly control herself, but she doesn´t even want to. She dances, feels great, free, abandoned, different and improved like belonging to an other species. The trip is wild and beautiful and so she can´t wait to try it again...
One week later she tries acid and this time she uses drugs it is groovier and greater than all the other times. She´s examing the exoticness and the magnificance of her hand - she´s discovering the marvel of her body. While being on her trip she has her first sex with Bill that is exciting, wonderful and indescribable.
The next day Alice can´t believe that it is all real. She thinks if the other kids ever had sex or got started on a ride. She´s mixed up and living in doubts, apprehension and fears that she has never dreamed possible. What if she´s pregnant? Alice is ashamed and regrets the whole thing. It seems as if her life is over, as if everything is too late.
