I am recording it and something else at the same time. I will delay watching it until about 10pm. That way I can avoid commercials and rewind if I miss something. I won't tell you what happens.
This episode was great. Can't believe the end there, and with so many new plot threads now.
Obvious Hank vs Walt showdown finally
but now we've got Jesse VS himself (and we all know, eventually walt)
The European cartels now because of Lydia
The Cancer (when you can say terminal cancer isn't the most dangerous point in a show its really something).
And we finally have a 100% Sighting of Chechov's Ricin.
Now for my crazy end of show prediction for potential bragging rights (subject to change but I think I saw something in Gilligan's eye whenever they said on Talking Bad about "Greek Tragedy" and "Hubris must be punished")
Rant ahead
This show has forever to me felt like a modern day Hamlet. It's not a story about events that happen and the protagonist goes to challenge them, its about a story that happens within the protagonist. And it will end in that way, within Walt. The Ricin will be used to kill himself as he tells his story/fesses to his crimes/reflects on himself after we THINK he's going to die in a shootout. But, just like Hamlet, everyone will die except for one or two minor characters, with my guess being Saul lives. He will be the person who has to clean it all up at the end, and he'll simply sweep it under the rug and never lose a nights sleep.
Walt will have to kill Jesse as well. And that's when we will all give up on him having any redeemable qualities in the end. And Jesse will know about all of the things he did, and he won't be able to do anything about them.
I tweeted it after the cold open "He walks like he's Osama in the suburbs."
I'm looking forward most to seeing just how it all gets out for him to be so dangerous that his neighbor ****s her pants just seeing him at his own house in broad daylight. (or she might've just thought he was dead or got out of jail, who knows).
One last side not/wild guess. Some graffiti or something in the house will give it all away in the end when we look back in hindsight. I think there was something in dust or spray painted as he looks out the window at the kids skating that you can kind of see, but I can't make it out. I think come the end there will be something in that house that gives a lot away.

There's still a lot going on, but I agree they wasted no time getting right down to business in terms of Hank. Could have done without the skinny pete and badger 10 minute sci fi rant. They are a couple of my least favorite characters.
I don't know wtf is up with Jesse. The money ain't gonna heal his head but it would sure as hell get him the funk out of Albuquerque, which is the last place on earth I would be. I gotta feeling the Russians are coming and Jesse ain't seen nothing compared to what they're gonna do.
Watching the Hank/Walt confrontation again, I love how Walt switches over to his Heisenberg voice when he says, "tread lightly." Incredible acting from both Norris and Cranston in that scene.
Gotcha. I thought that's the one you were talking about. With the detail in your spoiler post I was wondering how in the world you couldn't make out Heisenberg on the wall.
