His girlfriend talks about in the book, him literally waking up in the middle of the night, screaming, not like, oh, how are you doing, honey? I can't sleep. No, no, screaming in pain and agony.

He's also like super early, super optimistic. So it's a little nutty, you know, in that, in that case, he just thought he could do this.
