Summary: Ever since he got that letter seven years ago, Ryan’s life has been one dictated by routine. He visits his therapist, Gerard, twice a week; he writes small editorials for the music magazine he works for; and every time his mom’s name comes up on his cell phone, he sends her straight to voicemail. When he finally takes a chance, finally gets the opportunity to write a feature article for his magazine, something he’s been dreaming about, Ryan realizes that life is full of surprises, especially when he is assigned to find out why Brendon Urie, the lead singer of the popular “Industry of Being” , up and left his bandmates, apparently suffering from a manic episode.
