Big, Screwed-Up Family: The Melroses. Patrick was sexually abused by his father as a child, resulting in him becoming a drug addict and a alcoholic. He was also the product of rape when his father David forced himself on his mother Eleanor. David was likely abused himself by his father, but this doesn't excuse what he does to his own son.

Abusive Parents: Patrick's main issue. His father is a monstrous child rapist, while his pill-addled/alcoholic mother clearly knows something is wrong but chooses to do nothing.

Bits of Me Keep Passing Out: Patrick trying to walk to the bathroom after several quaaludes have kicked in. He's much more coordinated when he's walking back because he's done several lines of coke.
