Many  comments about this show have been like, "Even when you know where it's going, the way it takes you there still makes it great."  But to me, the episode had several big examples of what gets on my nerves.  Like some other episodes, there were plot points that I think were supposed to ratchet up the tension;

The short time I spent with the First Four Years EP (on cassette, before the fateful day someone stole all the cassettes from my car) didn't convince me of much at all.  Almost every Black Flag track that has ever stood out to me is from Rollins era.

So, Gus the genius just tells Walt "stay away or else."  Awesome plan.  Guaranteed to work.  No way will Walt continue to cause problems for Gus, after a foolproof solution like that.
