Hey guys what is up welcome back to my blog I’m so thankful that you guys took the time out of your day to read my blog post. Hope you all are safe from the COVID-19. I found that season 2 of How to sell drugs online had hit and I just knew that I had to watch it and after it was finished it left me wanting for more but also realizing that I look at the characters a much different way now than before.
I watches Season 1 of How to Sell Drugs Online when it came out so it made sense that I was desperately waiting for season 2 and when I saw that notification of new arrivals and saw this on it I was thrilled. Just to be clear I will be spoiling entire season 1 because if you haven’t watched it till now then it is not my fault. I will try to keep Season 2 spoilers to a minimum so no need to worry about that. Let’s recap what happened in Season 1 shall we? (If you don’t want to skip to the next chapter) So the show begins with Moritz your local loner coder who wants to build a start up with his diseased friend Lenny. His girlfriend comes over from America and he is pissed that she broke up with him. He finds out that his girlfriend Lisa is interested in the guy named Dan and that Dan sells drugs. So what does Moritz do? Unlike being a normal guy and drowning his sorrows in the night by crying, he decides to buy drugs and start selling them too. He reprograms the site he built for his start up naming it My Drugs and gets a hold of drugs from Dan’s supplier whom he cheats (Take note it comes into play later in the story). He begins supplying these drugs through his new website on the dark web and starts making a ton of money (in bitcoin) by packing and shipping drugs from his room. Things start to go downhill when his supplier comes knocking and wants his money. He kidnaps Lenny and Moritz takes help from Dan to save him. The supplier (whose name I have forgotten) shoots himself on accident and the 3 escape and Dan is welcomed into My Drugs.
Season 2 picks up a while after where we left off in Season 1 and we see that the boys have had a successful business and they’ve made a billion. Moritz however starts getting irritated by Dan being present and considers him of no value. This shows how Moritz despite being so cool with Lenny working in the business doesn’t want Dan in it because he considers Dan to careless. Things begin to go downhill when Moritz wants to move up even more in the drug world so much so that he is prepared to give up his school life to have an office with his suppliers in Rotterdam and have a seat at the table of the big shots. Moritz deeply struggles with trust in this season showing how his web of lies slowly starts to gnaw away at him. Lenny on the other hand wants to bring in another person and make more money but he also doesn’t want to leave his home town and his friends. Moritz starts becoming possessive of the business becoming too careful and overconfident in his own self. So much so that it lead to his ultimate demise at the end of the season (he doesn’t die). Dan also needs the money from My Drugs to prove to his family that he can be something. The boys are also going to graduate soon and they mutually decide to stop My Drugs after that but Moritz doesn’t want to stop thinking of himself more as the CEO and Founder of My Drugs than Mortiz working at his home to sell drugs with Lenny. Moritz changes a lot, he shows character development and his deep attachment to My Drugs. Dan also grows as a character leaving his lifestyle of being just a rich kid behind. Lenny doesn’t change much but he does comes to terms with his condition.
The long and short of the show is that there is more to come and kids shouldn’t sell drugs. The show handles the new season really well as with the first season it showed Moritz’s rise to power using his brain. The second season shows Moritz moving even higher up on the food chain while leaving his friends behind and that leads to his ultimate demise. Moritz shows that he just wanted to move up and not forget his friends as he does still protect them but his web of lies make it so much more complicated for him than when it was at the start. The show really shows how a high schooler who once started on the wrong path falls down a rabbit hole and how once someone enters this life of drug dealing it is hard to get out. Moritz is a perfect example of what happens when someone gets too deep into the business of drugs so much so that he is ready to lose himself. Another point that the show establishes is that not everything is as it seems. We need to learn to educate kids better on the dangers of dealing drugs and not hide the conversation. The series is masterfully crafted and a must watch for anymore just don’t get any ideas from there. Stay safe.
So that is it for this post guys hope you got some value from this. Thank you guys for reading to the end hit me up on Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn with your thoughts and if you have any ideas which I should write about. Stay safe from the COVID-19. Thank you again and I’ll see you all next week.
