Jessica wakes up the next morning and receives a phone call from someone who hangs up on her. Mike is gone, but Jessica notices a burning cigarette in the ashtray.

Jessica visits John in his office, where he tests her ability to process a room. When she fails, Jessica confesses that she is losing her mind. John reminds her that she has a job to do.

Back home, Jessica is busy getting wasted when Jimmy breaks in and tries to kill her. In the middle of being chased, Jessica passes out.

If the previous chapter suggested that Jessica might have distinguished some correlation between her blackouts and the string of murders she is investigating, this chapter is twisted enough to suggest that Jessica doesn't even realize the correlation between the blackouts and her drinking. Indeed, as Jessica recovers from yet another alcohol-induced coma, the viewer cannot help anticipating some sort of revelation about her IQ that might explain Jessica's fantastic inability to retain four key premises:

1. She gets drunk all the time
2. She passes out every single time she gets drunk
3. Someone is murdered almost every time she passes out
4. Even without (2) and (3) she needs to make some lifestyle changes immediately

Notably, Twisted breaks its previous record for the shortest amount of time after Jessica wakes up from being drunk before Jessica gets drunk again: the film cuts to John's office for exactly 53 seconds before cutting to Jessica back home and chugging red wine yet again. This is so astonishing, in fact, that we cannot think of anything further to say about it.

Jimmy's sudden reappearance certainly startles Jessica, but it startles the viewer even more, as Jimmy's last scene was 30 minutes ago and we simply assumed he'd been murdered by now. Clearly, this is a testament to Jimmy's stealth as he's hunted Jessica; alternatively, it seems possible that Jimmy had an extensive subplot -- dealing with the significant character arc that must have brought him to this point -- cut out in favor of getting to the end of the film a little faster.

Philip: I have bad news. Our budget has just been slashed and we need to cut out some scenes.
Sarah: We already got rid of Jimmy's whole subplot. What can we cut now?
Philip: Can we lose this chase scene with Jimmy?
Sarah: No way. It's the only scene within half an hour where something happens.
Philip: Is there any way we can lose... half of the chase scene?
Sarah: What do you mean?
Philip: Just end it in the middle. We'll save half the cost of filming the scene.
Sarah: I'm not sure it'll make sense in the movie.
Philip: Sure it will. Uh, we'll have Jessica pass out or something. Can we do that?
Sarah: Jessica's already passed out drunk four times in the movie.
Philip: This is going to work. I'll tell Ashley to just fall over in the middle of the chase.
Sarah: I don't know.
Philip: We can throw in the hawk screech. People will love it. [calling] Ashley!
