A man who marries a woman with children. The man then decides to take on the children as his own. Eventually, he runs out of love for said children and begins to treat them like shit. He tries to control their lives and degrades them in every way possible. The stepfather takes away the rights of said children and refuses to grant them any privileges in his household.

A phrase to describe someone who is cognitively degenerating. Synonym of "going off the deep end". Can have varying degrees of severity.

Reference to the song "Hey You" by Pink Floyd. The line "and the worms ate into his brain" makes no sense in an otherwise linear and literal narration throughout the lyrics.
