What signs of intoxication is John showing? He is having a serious conversation with Cori and Dean, and he begins flirting with Paris, hoping she will bring him another drink. When his friends suggest that he’s had too much to drink, John becomes quiet and sullen as he considers their advice. His speech is slurred, his mind and body seem to be moving slowly, but as soon as Paris explains she cannot bring him another drink because she might lose her job, John’s mood changes from civil to aggressive. Responding to Paris’s suggestion that he’s had enough, John argues reasonably that Cori is the designated driver and Dean will “keep me out of trouble.”
