Travis the counselor tells Charlie he spent two years in County Jail. By law the maximum time you can spend in County Jail is 364 days. Any sentence beyond that gets you sent to prison.

Citas
Jimmy: Hey, I never sucked dick.
Charlie Mills: [startled] Good for you.
Jimmy: Some guy did blow me once, though. What? It was for some H.
Charlie Mills: Some guy sucked your dick for heroin?
Jimmy: Sure. Why is it such a big deal? I'm not gay. I was desperate.
Charlie Mills: But... you gave some guy heroin to suck YOUR dick, so technically speaking...
Jimmy: Wait. No, no, no, no. He gave ME the H. I was jonesing.
Charlie Mills: Oh. Wait. That doesn't make any sense.
Jimmy: It was a fucked up time. I'm not proud of it.
Charlie Mills: Hold... but wait, wait, hold on, hold on. Some guy gave YOU heroin to suck YOUR dick.
Jimmy: Yeah. It's not that complicated.
Charlie Mills: But...
Jimmy: Addiction is a disease, man!
Charlie Mills: No, I get WHY you did it. I get what YOU got out of it, but what does HE get out of it?
Jimmy: Fuck if I know.
Charlie Mills: I can't believe I'm saying this, but that doesn't sound like such a bad deal.
Jimmy: Yeah, if you close your eyes and think of Jessica Alba, it's really not that much of a difference.

Why Isn't this Adam's Story?

This is about Charlie, the guy who had too easy of a life and who blew it all on a life of drugs. I found Charlie to be impossible to sympathize with or to care about because his attitude is two-dimensional. On the other hand, his best friend, Adam, who supports him in every way, now that's a story. Now he's a person I want to know better. Devon Bosticks is impossible to look away from. No offense to Nick Robinson because he's good. (It's Nick's character that is less interesting.) Adam as a character is that friend that every one of us wants. Wants to be. And Eva? I couldn't care less. Her character is boring. ..... As for the film as a whole, worth a watch. The story is human.
