Holy shit. What did I just see?
That was one of the most intense episodes of any TV show that I've ever seen. Just watched the DVR... whoa. I thought that the only way that Walt would have been able to leave the desert would be if the DEA were gone. Gomez was totally dead. And Hank... he got killed in a solid way. I loved his comment, "He'd decided 10 minutes ago." Walt wasn't thinking clearly. He totally gave up his position with the $80 million. And giving up Jesse like that was pretty ****ing cold-blooded. And then make the comments about Jane? Holy shit. What a total asshole. I had a feeling that when Todd was asking to bring him back, that they'd make him cook, thus making Walt less valuable... and teaching them how to get the purity up. Todd's dangling the photo of Pinkman's girlfriend and Brock was pretty dickish... and brilliant wicked. I hope the Aryan Brotherhood gets taken out in these next 2 episodes... and part of me wants to see Jesse and Walt kill each other in an epic crescendo to end the series with everyone dead... Most likely, the only ones alive, will be Skylar, Holly, Flynn and Marie... although, I hope Gilligan finds a way to kill off Marie. And Holly, saying "Nee Ma-ma" was some of the heartbreaking scenes... Glad that Walt did the right thing with Holly, in the end. What a ****ed up show. Odds of people living at the end of the series? Walter White: 5% Jesse Pinkman: 20% Saul Goodman: 45% Todd: 10% Todd's Uncle: 25% Skylar: 80% Holly: 99% Flynn: 95% Marie: 60% |

The flashback at the beginning of the episode was quite effective. Not only did it set up Holly for the episode, it also showed Walt's relationship with Jesse and Skyler at completely opposite points from what they've degraded into. No one trusts Walt at this point, they've all seen through him. Without his powers of deception, Walt is actually a pretty impotent character.
I can't really imagine Walt going back to try to save Jesse at this point. Walt's revelation to Jesse in this episode was out of complete malice. Walt felt betrayed that Jesse teamed up with Hank and wanted to show him that the betrayal went both ways. I think you guys might be right about Walt wanting to try to save Jesse to gain some sense of redemption, if only because I don't know where else the show could go plotwise, but I don't think Jesse will receive him very kindly if that is what happens. |

Close, but no cigar.

It's a crazy dynamic. It's easy for people to hate on Pinkman but Walt has betrayed him over and over again...
Walt has also saved his ass over and over. Jesse may hate him for letting his girl die, but there's a pretty good chance Pinkman is dead if he doesn't. Heroin is a hell of a drug. I'm not rooting for any character... I'm just rooting for a satisfying conclusion. I'm feeling confident it's going to happen. |

Wow, that was the greatest non sports thing I've ever watched. I literally said "Noooooooooo!!" when Walt grabbed Holly from her bed.
And thanks to the people who cleared up the phone call. I didn't get why he would say those things and then give up Holly to the FD at first.

Like I said, liked the phone call, so I thought they pulled it out in the end. It was really just a hiccup there for a minute or so. The other 42 minutes of the episode was amazing. |
