Hookers and Blow: Difference between revisions

[[File:shepardbookhookersandblow_4153.jpg|link=Firefly (TV)|frame| The Good Shepherd sure knows how to party.]]

[[Sex, Drugs and Rock And Roll]] is a [[Sub-Trope]] where this happens to rockers. A [[Binge Montage]] is a common way to portray a night like this.

Compare [[A Party - Also Known As an Orgy]], [[Trade Your Passion for Glory]], [[Paid Harem]].

* Charlie Wilson (a Member of Congress from Texas), in ''[[Charlie Wilsons War]]''. He's indicted and later acquitted of doing cocaine with strippers and a playboy model in Vegas. In [[Real Life]] he was known for his laid-back ways and liberal social views (and lifestyle--hey, it was [[The Seventies]]!) before he latched on to the [[Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan]] as a worthwhile pet issue.

* In ''[[Robo Cop]]'', an OCP executive who later gets blown up in his house does this. In the sequel, the baddies include an organization that seems to be a hybrid illegal drug manufacturer and religious cult.

* In ''[[Bad Lieutenant Port of Call New Orleans (Film)|Bad Lieutenant Port of Call New Orleans]]'', the [[Dirty Cop]] protagonist has a [[Hooker With a Heart of Gold]] for a girlfriend, uses his position to extort sex, and spends the entire movie high on Vicodin, heroin, marijuana, crack cocaine, regular cocaine, or more than one of those at once.

* Lord Iron from "[[The Cambist and Lord Iron (Literature)|The Cambist and Lord Iron]]" has this reputation.

* Charlie on ''[[Lost (TV)|Lost]]'' falls into this in flashbacks. Before that he was a good Catholic boy who just wanted to make some music.

* Happens in ''[[Supernatural (TV)|Supernatural]]'' to an ''angel'' no less. Dean is flung a few years into the future to see the outcome of his choice of action. {{spoiler|They lost.}} Castiel is seen arranging orgies and doing drugs like there's no tomorrow. {{spoiler|Because there might not be. He's also been turned mortal.}}

* Played with in one episode of ''[[House (TV)|House]]'' that featured the main patient purchasing cocaine from a drug dealer... in his sleep. His very specific form of somnambulism turns out to be one of the clues to what ails him, rather than a specific fall from grace. During that same scene, Thirteen is shown to know her blow, to the surprise of her partner in investigation.

* In [[Cage (Music)|Cage]]'s "Grand Ol' Party Crash", this is partly how we know that [[George W. Bush|The Dubya]] (voiced by [[Dead Kennedys (Music)|Jello Biafra]]) has fallen from grace.

* The [[Exalted|Green Sun Princes]] (who are often referred to as the [[Sex, Drugs and Rock And Roll|rock stars of Hell]]) are often said to be partially kept in line by their Yozi masters with the equivalent of demon hookers and blow (the other part being by their [[More Than Mind Control|Urge]] and [[Restraining Bolt|Torment]]). It's been noted that this is pretty ineffective in the long run; even if a Prince ''is'' primarily motivated by [[Hookers and Blow]], they'll eventually realize that they can easily acquire it for themselves.

* In ''[[Wizard School (Webcomic)|Wizard School]]'', Graham complains that the magical academy [http://www.meetmyminion.com/?p=1311 "blows. And not in a good way, like hookers or cocaine."]

* This trope will sometimes come up in [[The Nostalgia Critic (Web Video)|The Nostalgia Critic]]'s show. In what is a nice change, though, he doesn't act like there's only female prostitutes and realizes how difficult it is to get out of that life.
