When he returns to his home, he pours himself a drink and after drinking he collapses on the floor. The woman comes out of a doorway.

The album commences with "Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough for the Two Of Us," which for the most part is one of the more "conservative-emo" tracks on the record.
'However, its opening salvo is a crashing fan-favorite that sees Gerard Way hurling the contents of his throat over serrated metalcore licks, all while a restless rhythm section threatens to subsume every catchy moment in pure chaos.
'The song kicks off with a metalcore guitar lead and features all the tenants of a great MCR song: searing vocal yelps from a charmingly underdeveloped Way, scorched-earth guitar riffs, an anthemic chorus, a brief moment of soft respite during the bridge and a subsequently explosive payoff.'
