It had a lot of parallels for me because the movie was challenging different ideas about faith and it was looking at religion in a darker way.

So, whenever I'm around a cop, I get uncomfortable and nervous, worried that I'll say the wrong thing or look so guilty they'll arrest me anyway. Being completely out of my mind on drugs doesn't help the situation any.
