    My favorite moment is where Payson decided not to take drugs as a moral statement and then immediately broke her spine on national tv. Not sure what message the writers wanted to send there 😅

    • @matthewbrown1849
      @matthewbrown1849 Před 2 lety +159

      If she wanted to continue competing she needed to take those drugs but how she got them was illegal. She should have just gotten a prescription but her mother was not allowing her to take any more. I don't think Payson's mother knew how dangerous that sport is if you are in constant pain. IMO if she is not going to take the medication then she should sit out until she is healed. In the movie "The Martian" starring Matt Damon, his character has to perform complex tasks each day so he can survive on Mars while on a very low-calorie diet, due to food being in very limited supply. There is a scene in which he crushes up some Vicodin into his food. I don't see him as abusing drugs but instead using them as a tool for survival. Being on calorie restriction while trying to survive on Mars is extremely dangerous and any mistake can cost him his life.

      I could fully understand the message that the writers wanted to send. She should have taken the drug at this point, it was a big competition for her with the stress of winning and her not giving her back porper time to rest and heal, she need that drug at that point, her not taking the drug will do more harm than good. If she just gave ther back the proper healing and rest she needed, she would have a different income. If she threw away the drugs, she should have atleast told Sasha she wouldn't be about to complete in the final around, she wouldn't have won but atleast she would have made the national team and wouldn't have gotten injury. Even if the drugs she was taking was illegal but how she got those drugs were illegal, which is one of the reasons why Payson felt bad about taking it, since she was going behind her parents back, when her parents have been nothing but supported and understanding.

    I love the cortisone plot line because it's a medicine that is administered by injecting into the affected joint, and the effects aren't felt for around five days.

    Looking back I don't know how the girls could be friends with Lauren. She was a horrible person and was no friend to any of the girls. Getting with her best friend's boyfriend and not feeling bad about it, and even tried to break them up. The stunt she did with Emily, could have ruined her career and gotten her seriously killed. Then humiliated Payson with the kiss with Sasha. She never suffer any real conscience for her action compared to Emily and Carter who were kicked out of the gym.

    your videos have always been spot on for me but this one was the best thing ever. I feel like you know exactly which shows I watched growing up and you have such wonderful insights on them that only make it so much more fun and nostalgic to come back to. Literally none of my friends watched make it or break it and so I never had anyone to talk to about it so this was everything I needed. I hope your candles always smell good. Your work is amazing. Editing is top tier and your voice; perfect.
