this. last episode when he burst into saul's office and beat him, while screaming about 'you stole the ricin cigarette for MR. WHITE!' man, he killed me, with that pure heartbreak in his eyes and voice.

it shows how murder becomes part of everyone's 'i'll go there' list when needed.

you sound like me. every weekend my husband begs me to go out and i just want to be a couch-hugging, joint smoking, beer drinking asshole.

what's so difficult to grasp about a man who goes to extreme lengths and does some pretty bad shit, also being human in some respects? can't walt be irredeemable in terms of the crap he's pulled, and yet have some humanity and emotions? i don't get this black/white thing either, not when you consider the entire show.

agree completely. walt loves him and he cares about how jesse views him. it's the same as his relationship with sky and jr: loving them doesn't mean he won't manipulate them.

walt knows jesse, the others don't. they just see him as an unstable problem dog/junkie; walt knows his loyalty and his soft heart, and his humanity. that someone as depraved as walt can see all this in jesse is some poetic shit, yo. it reminds me that there are yet vestiges of humanity in walt. it's strange but for…

his use of 'naivete' was when i knew he'd fucked it. really, walt? try not to sound so fucking pompous when you're selling shit to people.

really? i didn't get that vibe at all. more like, even walt's sick of the lies and it takes all his effort to keep yammering on in the face of skepticaldeathglares from skyler.

dude, you've posted this thrice now. calm down. really. we've all read it.

he should've stayed out in s2, but he didn't. really, it's all on walt.

what nobility! almost-but-not-quite-killing-a-kid is way up there on my list of virtues!

na. jesse's gone batshit. he be out of walt's reach now. it isn't just brock; it's everything. i did love the irony where hank was convincing jesse of walt's love and jesse's all like 'fuck that noise.'

was it really, though? was there no other alternative at all? anything else walt could've done…

how'd he know brock would live? what if the doctors didn't figure it out in time? really, there's no way walt was certain about brock's survival. jesse nailed it; it was a move. that he would go there indicates what an absolute irredeemable prick he is.

makes me wonder exactly what walt was planning to say to jesse if he showed up. what spiel did he have ready that would magically and retroactively justify brock?

i kinda buy it, if you consider everything he's been through; he chased the blue meth for ages and was fucked at every turn by walt; he must be in a desperate place right now. that's the thing, all the players have their backs to the wall and that makes them crazy. hank never gave 2 shits about jesse so his attitude…

it's simply the fact that hating on a female character comes with a ton of misogynistic, hateful abuse: slut, whore, bitch…

good one! wait…

that was an epic fucking moment. I was in hysterics when ted awkwardly banged his head; wtf, dude? way to panic!

think of how gus got to walt initially, when walt had one of his 'i'm out' bouts: he spoke of providing for the family. it's one of the oldest dick-measuring tools out there, like ancient times old. of course it's about pride.
