Bookie season 2 episode 2 sees Danny get high at gunpoint

Bookie season 2 episode 2 saw Danny Colavito get into different kinds of trouble when he went with Hector and Ray to collect the bet money a dr*g lord owed them.

Going into the job, the three of them already knew it wouldn't be an easy task. They were stopped by multiple groups of heavily armed men as they located the home of the notorious dr*g lord, El Condor.

At the house, a young kid served as their guide, and he told Danny where the bathroom was. However, in the bathroom, when he was about to relieve himself, a huge snake, which was chilling in the bathtub reared its head, frightening Danny. The boy told him not to be afraid because the snake wouldn't disturb him.

But, as Danny was relieving himself, gunshots echoed, shocking him and causing him to turn and accidentally pee on the snake. When he went outside, Ray, Hector, and the kid were nowhere to be found. He looked for them, but some armed man caught Danny along the way and brought him inside a room filled with dr*g contrabands.

The men had someone, most likely the supplier, tied to a chair, and they were debating whether the white powder was fentanyl or m*th. The supplier said it was m*th, but the men weren't sure, so they had Danny try the product for them. Unsure of what he was dealing with, Danny prayed before quickly snorting the powder.

Soon enough, he was running high as a kite around the El Condor's home and even went on to preach to some people there. When he got face to face with El Condor, Danny had a false sense of confidence that when the man refused to pay them, he bravely told El Condor that they would never accept another wager from him.

Charlie was the hero of the day in Bookie season 2 episode 2, when he saved Danny, Ray, and Hector's lives and had El Condor pay the money he owed. After the visibly high Danny threatened El Condor about not taking his wagers again if he didn't pay up after losing, the other man got testy.

El Condor was armed and could give any and all of them a fatal shot as he did to Hector's phone when they tried to play the audio evidence of him making the bet he was now refusing he did. However, the baseball shirt-clad Charlie arrived on the scene.

Danny and the rest were shocked as much as Charlie to see them there.

It turned out that Charlie was El Condor's second cousin. When Charlie learned that El Codor owed them money, he reminded his second cousin that he was the "jefe" and encouraged him to do the "jefe" move. All the "jefe" talk changed El Condor's mind, and he decided to pay up.

Bookie season 2 episode 2 saw Lorraine pitch her new business venture to Walt—psychedelic mushrooms. They were aboard the yacht when Walt told Lorraine that he would like to try the goods, but Lorraine asked him what he wanted to get out of the entire psychedelic experience. Walt replied that he wanted to understand the animosity he had with his estranged mom.

The entire psychedelic experience brought Walt back to the time when he was still in her mom's womb. He learned a lot about when he was still a fetus, including that his mom had s*x when she was already pregnant with Walt, that he had a twin, but he ate the fetus, and that he was breached.

Throughout the whole ordeal, Lorraine guided Walt. She helped him make sense of his journey back to being a fetus and made him realize that his animosity towards his mom could have been misplaced.

After the supposed "birth," Walt came out of the high, telling Lorraine that they were going to make a fortune with the shrooms.

By the end of Bookie season 2 episode 2, Walt had also decided to reach out and visit his mom. They both cried as they hugged during the reunion.
