    Cassie
    episode S1.E2 february 2007
    If the world wasn't strange enough, this episode perceives the world through the eyes of Cassie. A world in which you receive messages through your food.

Welcome to the calm in storm of the surreal.

    episode S1.E3 february 2007
    Time to get to know the girl behind the clarinet. The rest of her family distinguish themselves by spitting out rhymes to booming bass beats, but Jal seeks solace from the chaos of life in the classical tunes that flow over her single reed. Although she seems to be trying to keep a considerable distance from the adolescent conundrum that 21st-century teens have created around her, it is not long before she is sucked into the whirlwind of her surroundings. Can the resulting destruction create something better?

    Chris
    episode S1.E4 february 2007
    Happy-go-lucky party animal Chris wakes up one morning with a hangover and an erection. Nothing unusual there. Until he discovers a grand in cash and a note from his mum saying she's gone away. So, like any not-so-average pill-popping 17-year-old, Chris embarks on a bender to end all benders. But what do you do after you've thrown the mother of all parties and blown all the money? Well, you sell everything that isn't nailed down and go again--and just hope that everything else will start to make sense. But sometimes, life can make a little more sense than you want it to, and Chris must face the fact that his mum might never be coming home.
