Dreamer

When Dean comes for him in this version of 'Five Districts Five Drugs', Sam is living with Jess in the Haight district of San Francisco. He is addicted to the strong prescription painkillers which he takes to control his intense headaches. He wears gloves to prevent the clairvoyance which occurs whenever he touches objects or people (apart from Jess or Dean.)

'Sam looks up at Jess, completely serious, and kisses each one of her eyelids, followed by the tip of her nose, and then her lips. It looks like a ritual, almost, one carefully but meaningfully followed, and Dean feels left out, again, of this home, these people’s lives, as if he’s stepped into a church and gotten lost in the order of service.'
