In 1998 Los Angeles, Winona lives with her parents, has dropped out of college and works for her father as his secretary.

One day Winona visits her pediatrician Dr. Cotton due to pain in her armpit which had lasted for a month.

Dr. Cotton does an examination of her and determines she may have an anxiety disorder and suggests she visit a therapist.

Thinking he is having an affair, Winona attempts to drive after him, but she gets worried since she only has a learners permit, and she unsuccessfully tries to get a stranger to ride with her.

Later, Winona has another attempt at following her dad, but she gets distracted from talking to herself and she rear ends the woman’s car.

Richard steps out and isn’t mad, but more concerned when he sees that Winona suffered a minor head injury.
