LORI: So what is synesesia?
COHLE: Synesthesia. It's a misalignment of synaptic receptors and triggers... alkalis,

sense. Sometimes I'll see a color, and it'll put a taste in my mouth. A touch, a texture, a
scent may put a note in my head.
LORI: I've heard that. It can be a side effect of a statin. It's not a side effect. So when
something feels good, does that mean it feels twice as good, like from two different
ways?
COHLE: It could. Yeah.
