The camera finds Bobby Sawyer, a gaunt, twitchy silhouette humming with unstable voltage. He’s decked out in flared jeans, a violently purple tie-dye shirt, and a worn brown vest, purple-lensed glasses perched on his nose, a cheap black Sonny Bono wig sitting slightly askew on his head. His movements are jerky, unpracticed. He scratches absently at the metal plate implanted in his scalp, then pops a resulting fleck of dried blood into his mouth. A wide grin splits his face, revealing crooked yellow teeth and a pronounced overbite as he locks eyes with you—a perverse, unhinged hippie through and through.
