I came across this sentence in an article by John McPhee but I'm unable to parse it. Could you please help me parse it?

The sentence reads

By the end of 1945, I was inhad passed the soup now goodpoint of no return. I was in the soup now good.

Basically, I can't figure out what good is doing there.
