I do this for a very good reason.
Lao Bai said this sentence no less than 6 times in the play, and this sentence runs through the whole play, finding a suitable excuse for everyone's behavior, as long as I have a good The reason, I can do anything, I am for you, I am for this family, how can you not understand!
There is a well-known debate in the legal world, that is, "motivation theory" and "consequential theory". To put it bluntly, it is whether the crime is sentenced according to the result of the offender's behavior (such as manslaughter) or based on the offender's motive or Sentencing based on the original purpose of the crime (such as attempted murder).
This kind of argument actually comes from life. For example, if you want to do something stupid, as long as you have a very good reason, then everyone will forgive you more or less. Of course, whether the reason is good enough is up to everyone. It's good enough, then ok, nothing is wrong, if everyone thinks it's too far-fetched, then you'll feel too sad, I've done so much and it's not understood. So many people think that lying is right, I don't want to worry you, I don't want to destroy this family; some people think it's right to kill, I'm defending my country, I'm doing justice, I'm doing it for heaven Do the right way; some people think that robbery and stealing is right, because I want to live, I want to support my family, what else can I do.
Many times we feel that we can't understand and that's it, either because we can't say that "good enough reason", or because the reason is not good enough in the eyes of others, so we think: what the hell do you think! Am I for me, I am for our future! Go away, you won't understand me.
More or less, behind every lie, every mistake, every crime, there is a man who thinks he has nowhere to go, and there is a sympathetic story.
However, no matter how poignant the story is, it cannot excuse the mistakes that have been made. Now, after all, it is a society that sees results.
After lying to himself for 5 seasons, Lao Bai finally saw himself clearly in the last episode: I did it for me.
If Breaking Bad needs a central sentence, it can only be this one: I did it for me.
Everyone has a selfish side, even facing the people closest to them. The inner demon is not defeated with education or experience, but is buried deeper and more suppressed, and the best way to face it is to stay away from it as much as possible and never touch it, because , Human nature is the most fragile and unchallenged thing in the world.
