How To Correct This Sink Drain Piping!

What happens here

Using a plumber's saw, cut the horizontal section of the existing drain pipe close to the wall connection. Once the pipe is cut, carefully maneuver and remove the entire P-trap assembly, including the problematic corrugated flex pipe, from both the sink tailpiece and the wall drain opening. Be prepared for any residual water to drain from the trap.

Goal: Carefully detach and remove the existing under-sink drain plumbing, including the flexible corrugated pipe and P-trap.
