One minute he was totally sloshed, shooting shit in his pool, the next minute he was totally sober and ready to attend his daughter's performance. A Christmas miracle!

There may have been a tipping point, where he was told/and or had an epiphany, realizing that if he doesn't shape up, his career and life will be over. Either way, good for him. I'm sure it wasn't easy and took discpline.

That still doesn't explain how the alcohol left his body in record time.

Good point. I didn't realize the gravity of degrees you were referring to.
