Details: "Inherent Vice": PARANOID

Everybody’s going for a coked-out drive, and when Denis asks what Dr. Blatnoyd is putting underneath the seat, Blatnoyd tries to keep to keep him calm by saying something like “pay no attention to that bag, I don’t want to make everybody **PARANOID**”, spitting (!) out the word in a way that reveals how the word was on his mind but halfway through the sentence he completely forgot what the word was there for and the sentence achieves the exact opposite effect of what he intended.
