THE BLURB: "Mechanic" may be his last name, but all Nick Mechanic knows about cars is that he likes driving really nice ones. Nick was an audacious, young turk Hollywood agent who made all kinds of movie and TV deals for actors, writers, directors and producers. He also made drug deals - and turned up on the radar of three different police departments. Nick fell from grace and ended up in prison and then rehab. Eventually Nick got disgusted enough with himself to change things - and to not merely attempt to recover but to succeed at it. That's what THE MECHANIC is about - outrageous, true behind-the-scenes tales of Hollywood excess and deal-making, wretched excess, drug-dealing and addiction, and a rousing, uplifting story of personal rebirth.

    THE BLURB: Nick picks up his "Genesis story" where he left off in episode 1 - with his arrest for dealing drugs. While Nick thought he'd hit bottom, as he'd learn, addicts don't actually have one rock bottom; they have many and he had many more to experience. But, everything Nick had learned in order to navigate Hollywood would serve him well while he was behind bars and dealing with the legal system. But, it would take a while still for Nick to reach that place internally where actual recovery was possible. How he got THERE is also part of this story.
