Vinnie is an episode of season 7 of the popular show Intervention. This episode follows the story of Vinnie, a 47-year-old man who has been struggling with addiction for over 25 years. Vinnie's addiction began when he was just a teenager and he started using drugs and alcohol as a way to numb the pain of childhood trauma.

As the years went on, Vinnie's addiction only got worse. He has been in and out of rehab multiple times, but he always relapses soon after leaving. Vinnie's addiction has also taken a toll on his relationships with his family and friends. He has become isolated and withdrawn, and his loved ones are at a loss for how to help him.

In this episode, Vinnie's family and friends stage an intervention to confront him about his addiction and urge him to get help. The intervention is led by Jeff VanVonderen, an interventionist who has helped countless people overcome their addictions.

At first, Vinnie is resistant to the idea of getting help. He denies that he has a problem and insists that he can quit on his own. However, as the intervention continues, Vinnie starts to realize the severity of his addiction and the impact it has had on his life and the lives of those around him.

In the end, Vinnie agrees to go to rehab and get the help he needs to overcome his addiction. He is taken to a facility where he undergoes intensive therapy and works on developing new coping mechanisms to help him stay sober.
