Snapshot · Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Chloe's abusive ex-boyfriend followed her everywhere after she left him — on buses, outside her workplace strip club — and eventually broke into her apartment while she was ill.
Where this was said
At 47:20 · chapter starts 47:00
Armed with a 'no fucks given' attitude and a server job at a strip club — where the exchange rate made American tips extremely lucrative — Chloe begins making up for lost time. But freedom is not free: her ex begins appearing wherever she is, dipping into doorways, jumping into bushes, hovering just within her peripheral vision. He rides the next stop on her bus and sits across the car. Bouncers at the club ban him; he simply waits outside. His energy, Chloe says, still feels like he's just waiting for her to come to her senses and come back. But after a confrontation in a Tim Hortons bathroom where she fights back and makes clear he will never have her again, the energy turns darker. The motion-sensor light outside her basement apartment keeps being found with the bulb unscrewed. The feet-shaped silhouettes passing the tiny ship-windows are one too many.
Chloe was delirious with what she thought was the flu, collapsed on her futon, and woke to find her abusive ex looming above her, slapping her cheeks. In her weakened, confused state, she didn't know if he had caused her illness or was about to kill her. He put her in a cab to the hospital — saving her life.
