randy arrives in houston, texas, bleary and crashing from non-stop traveling on trucker speed. he somehow manages to find the dive bar where august collins first tried alcohol and drugs with spider. randy sits on the ruckus patio with a cigarette and a cocktail during happy hour as the patio fills with strangers who seem familiar because of the stories august has told him about the place. randy meets someone who offers to help him find cocaine for his travels then accepts a joint which is spiked with something, sending randy into a hallucinatory state where he thinks he might actually be august collins. he wakes up the following dawn in the back seat of his car, in the parking lot of a different bar, the r&b club where august worked after he ran away from spider five years earlier.
