ELI5: What would happen if you took a powerful drug such as ecstasy, but passed out before it had a chance to kick in because of excessive alcohol consumption?

Depends on how it's taken. You said MDMA, but I'll lump Cocaine and Meth in there as well, never know what that white stuff is that random strangers give you. Of course, 5 year olds (and anyone for that matter) shouldn't be doing this.

If it was snorted, you wouldn't be going to sleep. All 3 will kick in very quickly, faster than you could find a place to sleep. All 3 are well known to overpower alcohol/exhaustion and keep people awake.

If it was smoked (cocaine/meth, not the MDMA) same thing-it kicks in very quickly, wouldn't ever get to sleep.

If it was eaten (more common for MDMA, especially pill form, pretty uncommon for Meth/Cocaine) you might be able to sleep before it kicked in. We're now in the murky spot. It can overpower alcohol, or even sleep, and wake you up when it kicks in. Then again, with enough alcohol or exhaustion, nothing can really help. Chances are, you'll just sleep like crap.

I guess the best way to put it is, will the Patriots beat the Giants? They could, but it really depends on more factors than when they start the game.
