Ethan is not the kind of person to spend his time with a bunch of freaks, but he is the kind of person to get caught drunk driving. As an alternative punishment for drunk driving Ethan is assigned to spend time at a local rehab center. There he meets Rexie, Blue , Kat, Winter, and Scarlet who have anorexia, bulimia, schizophrenia, anxiety disorder and bipolar disorder respectively. As Ethan spends time with each of the girls and learns about what it truly means to be disordered he must assess his orignal definition of crazy; is crazy being disorderd or throwing your life away?
❝The color of peony pink
courses through these fragile hands.
Now can you tell me my dear,
have we reached the golden land?❞
In which two teen best friends are unstable messes, but do their best to try and get through it together.
That is, if they stay alive long enough.
