Song: “Slippin”
Description: Rock Bottom
Leading up to the season finale, John Thackery has really hit the bottom of it all. He won’t leave his brownstone. He’s been on a mission to find cocaine any way necessary. It’s crazy to think how far people would go to get high:
Example 1: He stole bottles and tried to extract cocaine from them to shoot up.
Example 2: His co-workers got him salt water that they thought was liquid coke.
Example 3: He smoked opium, but it wasn’t enough.
Example 4: He broke into another hospital’s pharmacy just to get high.
Example 5: He begged the salesman for a “Thackery’s Solution” advance for drug money.
Being turned down by the cockroach salesman was the icing on the cake. To think, the man with the least dignity on the show didn’t give him a chance? That says a lot of how far Thackery has fallen.
