He meets Jane's best friend Angela (Mena Suvari) and becomes obsessed with her, experiencing strong sexual fantasies involving her and rose petals. After this, Lester becomes revitalized and quits his job after blackmailing his boss for $60,000. He becomes employed as a fry cook at a fast food restaurant, begins working out with hopes of impressing Angela, and smokes marijuana with Ricky.
