[S3E8] Reaching Rock Bottom

Coral: This is the story of how I quit being a prοsttսte. But it's also the story of how I stopped falling off the wagon, hit rock bottom, and started living. And how Wendy and I managed to get away from the B-side of life to look for a better future.

[S3E8] Reaching Rock Bottom

In season five of the critically acclaimed drama, "Better Call Saul," Jimmy McGill's decision to practice law as "Saul Goodman" creates unexpected and profound waves of change throughout Albuquerque's legal and illegal circles. Kim Wexler finds herself at a crossroads as her connection with Jimmy deepens. Wracked with guilt and regret, Mike Ehrmantraut hits rock bottom. Meanwhile, Nacho Varga tries to survive as Gus Fring's covert war on the cartel becomes a life-and-death chess match with the mercurial and relentless Lalo Salamanca

What we got was a tour de force experience that proved a pivotal moment for her character, a veritable rock bottom that we can only hope she emerges from more motivated, more driven and hopefully a little smarter than we've seen from her basically all season. Ironically, the turnaround came at the hands of one of Gilead's enablers, the male doctor treating Natalie.

Mrs. Coulter took a much more personal journey of self-reflection and growth spanning these two episodes. She very nearly manages to defeat the Magisterium, only to have her victory snatched away by a higher power. After that, she hits rock bottom, to the point of trying to commit suicide by witch. Instead of killing her, Serafina helps her see how she has been transformed by her love for Lyra. With that revelation, Mrs. Coulter reconciles with her daemon and is ready for action again when they find out Lyra is alive.

Brockmire is sometimes an agent of chaos, but he can also make sense of difficult situations. In the Season 1 episode "Kangaroo Court," some Morristown Frackers players get into an argument that threatens to end the day's game. The feud starts over a miscommunication caused by a language barrier, and the team holds a heated kangaroo court to get to the bottom of the issue. Pedro Uribe (Hemky Madera) insists that the team's star pitcher, Yoshi Takatsu (Daisuke Tsuji), purposely ignored his request to retaliate against an opposing team.

The penultimate episode of Season 2 includes some of Brockmire's worst moments on his way to hitting rock bottom. After another night of questionable drug-fueled decisions, Brockmire finds himself in the hospital. To his surprise, the staff invites several medical school students to stand by his bedside. He's confused at first, but a doctor explains that he has a highly unusual diagnosis: scurvy. All the students are fascinated by Brockmire's rare disease, but he doesn't take it seriously. His addiction has gotten so out of hand that he no longer appreciates the dangers of his behavior.

Because alcohol lowers inhibitions, it can encourage people with a tendency to self-harm toward destructive behavior and even suicide attempts as they hit rock bottom. In addition, extremely heavy drinking can lead to psychosis, bringing on symptoms such as delusions and hallucinations. 041b061a72
