The tension throughout the whole second half of the episode was incredible.
05-31-2010 , 05:51 AM
finally a good episode. season 3 has been going downhill imo compared to the first two seasons with a couple of pretty bad episodes and ******ed stuff from jesse.

this episode was very good though

Was it though? Was this something added in season 2? I don't remember any scene with Jesse/Jane in the car, and the only memory i really have of the lipstick covered cigarette is the previous episode.

No way Gus is gay. OP might have homophobia.

Awesome pick up. didnt catch it.



Is anyone else getting pissed off at Hank? I think he is going to go mental when he finds out that Walt / skylar are picking up the tab.

Lolz at Walt Jr. calling out Hank because he has crutches.

He has to play a guy that has no feelings pretending to have feelings. Probably not the easiest thing to do. He just does it really well. Breaking Bad is on another level of quality, but MCH is in the top tier of TV actors.

there was one other mistake Walt made that he can't make again.



not getting the product done on time.

I'm thinking it has more to do with Walt getting back with Schilar.

I enjoyed it immensely.

My immediate thought was that Ted could become their Danny because he's vulnerable and overextended. My second thought was that I don't see how it could possibly work or be wise. Now, I think, well, who knows, maybe...

I think this is based on how effectively they've been at using him to generate tension, and that killing him would extinguish that dramatic option. So they put the audience through some near miss with him, and he lives to be the source of more tension. Looking just at the story, they've been telling a story where his days are numbered.

I guess it can be homoerotic for two men to be in a private home, with one terrified/disoriented/wondering why he has been summoned? I do think it is kind of weird that you think Gus might be gay/have wanted Walt for gay sex... Hey, it's cool if he is and all, that is his own personal preference.

This would have made the fly episode sooo much better.

Did anyone else have a hard time hearing what the mexican chick was saying? I turned my tv up super loud and still missed some stuff.

Like in the restaurant, I thought she said Tomas was her sons father, not brother, which obviously made more sense if his dad was a gangbanger etc. I only realized she said brother when she was talking about the gang stuff later.
05-31-2010 , 01:36 PM
im starting to think the 2nd mistake is getting back with skylar. gus bought from jesse. despite skylar's change of heart she has been and will always be the leader of the family. or maybe gus just thinks walt needs to take control of the family for it to last

yea imsakidd, im always turning it up and down

How does gus know anything about Skylar?
05-31-2010 , 02:18 PM
The mistake Gus is telling Walt not to make again is to hide details of the operation from Gus. Specifically the fact that Jesse is stealing.

I doubt it was added in afterward and I can't imagine anyone being critical of it. It sets up the theme of "wanting that feeling to last," with Jane talking about Georgia O'Keeffe's doors and then later Jesse using that to sell meth to the Mexican MILF. And seeing as how this is the first girl he's hooked up with since Jane died, it makes perfect sense she would be on his mind the whole time -- made even more complex when his goal to sell her the meth conflicts with his struggle to be a good guy when he sees she has a son.

+1, very good observation.

no way jesse dies, he gives way to much breadth to the direction writers can take the show in every episode.

awesome episode next 2 are going to be awesome
05-31-2010 , 03:31 PM
Jesse not dying means some significantly crazier sh*t would happen, and I think I'm fine with that.

I think he's out though.

I just meant added in after she died. Like the other flashback, it's just something they came up with now, didn't set up in any way, so it didn't seem planned. Otherwise that scene could have been in last season, or at the lipstick cigarette, and then have Jesse flashback to the context surrounding it. Not that I have a huge problem with it, but I remember someone else (rightfully?) criticizing the show for doing the same with the turtle/head/bomb thing, attributing it to the psycho twins after the fact to make them look more badass.

Someone also mentioned reading/hearing that the creators are flying by the seat of their pants to a degree with this show (as in not having everything planned out longterm), this would back that up I think.

Didn't even think about that, but this makes sense. Walt would probably love it too, to be able to hold over Ted after HFS. Would be a nice plot development I think, but I can also see it ending badly.
