Breaking Bad

Crazy how Jessie is now Gus's "Mike", wonder if Walt eve tell's Hank he was apart of the operation.

And what a dumb ass that guy Ted is fucking falls over a rug and breaks his neck.

[krulmichael]

Holy...Fuck! I'm getting chills right now, that was fucking crazy. And I think Walt was auditioning to be the next Joker at the end there.

[padman59]

That was a hell of an episode.

[DDRGuido]

Very dark & disturbing episode. Kinda wish Ted would of died in a more believable way. But I did like Bill Burr's cameo!

[Shayn•Da•Pain]

That was a hell of an episode.

I mostly don't agree with you.

 

Medical scene
Good, but I expected Jesse to carry over and Boss up a little bit in there...he didn't. The blood bag, and the doc knowing so much about Jesse shows once again how much of a G Gustavo is. But really, I don't know...I think the scene was reaching for something that I don't think it achieved, which was Jesse becoming something bigger. We already knew Gustavo was a smart motherfucker who thinks of every step. It was an ok scene. I really loved how Jesse stood up for Walt before they walked into the desert...only to shove Walt away and basically make Walt feel unsafe and like a dead man walking. Maybe he knew the guys were waiting outside, I don't know.

Skyler and Ted
We all knew Skyler was going to go to Saul to take care of Ted, so that was really predictable. It was another 10-20 minutes of the show that I already knew was going to happen. And Ted tripping and breaking his neck I think was supposed to be funny...it wasn't.

Walt crashes
Answer this, would you laugh off an accident like that? Say you gotta be somewhere and you ask the driver pull in up here at the cleaners, they obviously see the turn in and drive past it...then they pull right out in front of oncoming traffic...Would you laugh it off? Now imagine you're a DEA agent, you wouldn't wonder why the fuck this highly intelligent guy next to you was acting to awkward. Now I'm not saying Hank would jump to any conclusion about Walt being a drug dealer at this point. But shit has to start adding up sometime soon. Hanks connection to Pinkman, Pinkman's connection to Blue Meth, finding one of hanks HS masks at a meth crime scene in season 1, I believe Hank thought W.W. in Gale's book was Walter White, until Walt pointed out the Walt Whitman. I understand though that Hank just doesn't see Walt that way. Hell Walt was his best man I believe. But I think Hank will eventually discover Walt on his own. At least I hope so, just so Hank doesn't look like the dopy detective, and actually looks like the sharp DEA agent the show attempted to make him out to be before.

Gus and Jesse visit Hector
Loved this scene. This is when the episode really picked up for me. I loved when Gus came in and showed Hector the man who killed his last family member...again. Jesse was a little bitch in this scene, but it's understandable that he's in shock I guess. But I don't think he should act completely surprised at what Gus does anymore. But Jesse's right to fear Salamanca, that was a trippy day out there with Tuco and Hector the last time they saw each other.

Walt's Ego
Now why did he have to say a fucking word in the desert. Just say ok...I'll stay away. No. Instead he had to speak out of place and attempt to assert his place in some futile attempt to what, protect himself? Hank? His family? And now Gus has to threaten him, and so Walt goes off the deep end. But I LOVE that he finds out Skyler took that money and gave it away. That ending was classic. I loved the audio cinematography. Walt laughing like that, the drama, the phone ringing, Skyler, all of it...that scene was perfect.

But that's just how I felt about the show tonight.

If only Walt went go karting with Jessie, none of this would be happening.

Response in bold.

I mostly don't agree with you.

How so? If anything, it reinforced how small Jesse (and Mike to a certain extent) is compared to Gus.

Skyler and Ted
We all knew Skyler was going to go to Saul to take care of Ted, so that was really predictable. It was another 10-20 minutes of the show that I already knew was going to happen. And Ted tripping and breaking his neck I think was supposed to be funny...it wasn't.

I didn't find it funny either, but Ted served his purpose this season after Skylar gave him the money, which was taking away Walt's ace in the hole and forcing him into a corner. As for the believability of Ted's death, the first thing I thought of when I saw it was that the writers must watch 1000 Ways to Die since a girl died the same way in one of the episodes. As long as Saul's guys cleaned up after themselves, I don't think there will be much consequence coming to anybody about his death.

I think most can agree that dumping Ted from the show is a good thing.

Walt crashes

At least I hope so, just so Hank doesn't look like the dopy detective, and actually looks like the sharp DEA agent the show attempted to make him out to be before.

For the reasons you listed, it's hard to believe that Hank will suddenly suspect Walt as being Heisenberg (at this point anyway). I'm not surprised.

If you want a logical reason for this instance, you might be able to write it off as Walt being nervous about pulling into a potentially dangerous laundry facility that is acting as a front (as opposed to sitting in a car a fair distance overlooking a chicken farm).

Gus and Jesse visit Hector
Loved this scene. This is when the episode really picked up for me. I loved when Gus came in and showed Hector the man who killed his last family member...again. Jesse was a little bitch in this scene, but it's understandable that he's in shock I guess. But I don't think he should act completely surprised at what Gus does anymore. But Jesse's right to fear Salamanca, that was a trippy day out there with Tuco and Hector the last time they saw each other.

I've enjoyed each of the scenes between Gus and Salamanca this season.

Walt's Ego
Now why did he have to say a fucking word in the desert. Just say ok...I'll stay away. No. Instead he had to speak out of place and attempt to assert his place in some futile attempt to what, protect himself? Hank? His family? And now Gus has to threaten him, and so Walt goes off the deep end. But I LOVE that he finds out Skyler took that money and gave it away. That ending was classic. I loved the audio cinematography. Walt laughing like that, the drama, the phone ringing, Skyler, all of it...that scene was perfect.

If Walt would have kept his mouth shut a few times before, I don't think he would have encountered some of the shit he's already had to go through. However, Walt appears to have the need to display his intellectually superior to Gus and show him that he's a few steps ahead in the chess match between them. You might also say that Walt wouldn't have heard Gus' plan to get rid of Hank if he hadn't opened his mouth.

But that's just how I felt about the show tonight.

 

Overall, I think it was a good episode because now Walt is in a corner, and you know he's going to have to take some drastic steps to save his ass and his family. The last two episodes have been great at setting the stage for the final two episodes of the season.

[BrntO4Life]

lol even in an Emmy skit his acting is gold.

Aaron Paul is a funny dude. He played Weird Al in a short on Funny or Die and it was great.

[Cornelius]

 

I almost had a feeling that Ted was working for the government at this point to dig more into Skyler and Walt. I wonder if that shit is ultimately going to end them. Think about it, Al Capone didn't get thrown in jail for killing people. He was put away for tax evasion.

That was an amazing sketch. Patton Oswalt's one line in that sketch had me rolling. "By changing the lyrics, you can change the world!"

Fawkin awesome.

I burst out laughing when Ted died. of course he was going to die.

what else can be said? 2 more episodes left and i have no idea how its going to end. it feels like the end of last season where things changed RAPIDLY in the closing 2 episodes.

[StealthShot]

 

Fucking Gus somehow finds the poison in Jesse's cigarettes and knows that he will think Walt had something to do with it. The has the gut feeling about his car and walks away this fuck just doesn't want to die.

[DDRGuido]

Damn I really thought Jesse was going to waste Walt there.
