LOL I am intimately familiar.....hahahaha so true. This was a great episode. The funny thing is that with all the so called "filler" parts tons of stuff keep happening. So I guess this is going to move into an eventual showdown between Walt and Gus. I loved where Walt was completely lying. We knew he was, we can tell from Gus's reaction that he knew Walt was. I loved that scene. Then Gus shows up at the hospital and Walt had the hand in the cookie jar look. That was a great moment. As far as the brother coming at the door, it can be explained away as the brother just seeing a bunch of DEA agents. Of course somehow this is going to come back and haunt Walt eventually. If you notice with this show even little mundane details come back later in this show to bite a particular character in the ass or become pertinent to a plot point later. Just look at Walt's collection jar, the munchos, the flashbacks, teddy bear parts, Hola Dea, key alarm on the RV...... etc. etc. I am sure I am missing a bunch. Just a bunch of details not normally associated with other shows.
Hahahaha. "It had waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much talking! My head exploded due to lack of exploding heads!"
I'm going to be pissed if Aaron Paul doesn't win an Emmy this year. He's been great all season long. The story about shop class and the wooden box...just great fucking acting. Bringing Skinny Pete and Badger to the Narcotics Anonymous meeting was so incredibly evil of Jesse. Oh yeah, Skyler's a cunt.
...and dammit, Scik. I knew this thread would turn into a giant piece of shit without the smugness of Jetophile.
Skyler is definitely the antagonist of Breaking Bad. I thought the gambling cover scene was really well done, you actually thought for a minute that Skyler actually got it and might start acting like a human being, but then no, she was right back to being the petty, hypocritical cunt we all hate. Overall this was a great episode, it had a nice mix of comedy with the nail salon and drug pusing at the NA meeting and drama with the Walt/Gus negotiations and Jesse opening up. He really has done an amazing job this year.
my roomate was watching this when i got home last night. checked out like 45 minutes of it and it seemed really good. he gave me some of the backstory and that also sounds pretty sweet. gonna have to check out what i have missed.
I thought the scene with the gambling cover was very well done. Since Marie is unable to keep secrets, Hank is going to hear this story and I am not too sure he is going to buy it. Skyler is taking a huge risk with this one.
Yeah its definitely going to be a major plot point next season. On the surface it wasn't a bad lie but she kept rambling on and on about all these details. The key to a great lie is simplicity.
You should definitely watch it. It's become one of my favorite shows of all time and it's probably the best show on TV right now.
Anna Gunn's done an excellent job playing an extremely unlikable character this season. I don't see how anyone can actually like that evil bitch. She was even a bitch to Ted.
This episode was genius. My roommate was getting so pissed because "nothing was happeneing" - when really, Walt is quietly self-destructing. The fly clearly isn't what's contaminating the lab, it's Walt's guilt.
I was like zoning out a lil until walt apologized to jesse (about jane) I thought he was gonna tell jesse he saw jane dying and basically let it happen
I really think that Walt sees Jesse as a son - "never give up on family" Earlier in this thread, I explained why the ICU episode was like that. It made perfect sense to me.
