"Boosting methlamine from a train is like a...major rap. So point is, no one...other than us can ever know that this robbery went down...nobody, you got it?" - Jesse to Todd

Ironic. Great writing.

Todd was just doing as he was told.

If you watch the "inside the episode" on amctv.com Aaron Paul says, "Jesse does NOT like that. The next episode SH*T hits the fan."

I mean from a strictly business standpoint it was probably the right move. I couldn't have done it though.

If I had to list my favorite shows from the past few years, I would say Breaking Bad, Friday Night Lights, and Justified.

I don't think so, necessarily. It's likely the kid had no idea any foul play was going on. Now they have a body to get rid of, and it may be a big problem moving the tank of Methylmene (sp?) if people are looking for the boy in that area. If they can move it that night, it's probably not a problem.

while I hate her, the foreshadowing from Skylar was crazy.

What a great episode, just when you start to cheer for them getting it done...

Kid was just doing what he thought was right according to Walt and Jesse. Walt and Jesse were just telling the kid what they were told by Mike earlier in the show.

There's two kinds of robberies. The ones where the guys get away with it, and the ones that leave witnesses.

I just assumed they were planning to leave the tanks buried there and come out there to get their methylamine. Can't leave them there now. The cops will be looking for freshly excavated soil.

Just watched last night's episode. Intense! I really wish that had not happened.
I'm becoming more and more sure of myself that Walt is going to go down hard, or his whole family will be killed. I find ogre want Hank to finally catch him.

My thought also. Figured they'd leave the tanks out there and just fill up a barrel or so of methylamine as they need it.

No chance of that now. Parents call the cops about missing child. Will say he was riding out looking for spiders. Cops go on the search. Not only do they have to hide a body, move the tanks, but they're also on a timeframe. How long before people/police come looking for the missing kid.

Question for those that are chemistry smart.....how hard is it to make your own methylamine? Remember last season when Gus took Jesse down to Mexico, their chemist said they sythesize their own methylamine. Is that not something that Walt could do?

I don't think they have the lab capacity/availability of ingredients to synthesize their own at the time being.

but why would they look in that spot? Toss the kid in the empty water tank (and add whatever chemical they've used before to dissolve a person), get rid of his bike and move on. No one is going to just start digging in some random spot in the desert

saw this and thought it was funny

I've been kinda torn on the ending. At first I really liked then the more I thought about it I kinda thought it was kinda stupid. My biggest issue was that Walt has spent 5 seasons lying to people and has basically become a master manipulator but he can't come up with something to tell a kid to get him to leave. It's not like the kid even knew what was going on.

But now I think that during the entire show Walt has been ultra careful but he let someone in that he didnt really know or trust and it had horrific results. Walt, Jesse, and Mike would not have done that but they slipped up and now have a bigger problem to deal with.

Something else to think about. The movie Heat was mentioned by Hank. A movie about bank robbers that add a new guy to their group and he turns out to be a loose cannon and ultimately brings them down.

It's not that they would look in that one spot, just that they'd do a search of the general area all around and may stumble across it. And it's not about finding the kid. It's about finding out about their operation. Finding a tank of water or methylamine under the one bridge in the middle of the desert is going to generate questions.

I think the gun got pulled and fired a little too quickly for Walt to say anything, or process what to do. I mean, as soon as I thought "Okaaaay, what's gonna happen no-" boom, kid's dead. Dude was only doing exactly what he was told.

while we don't know how far away the kid is from his home, I will say that a person on a vehicle can cover some serious ground in the desert. I just think the idea of them stumbling across a tank at some random point in the desert is remote. However, I do think it comes back to bite them in the future based on how the new guy just came into the picture and did this

There was at least 10 seconds, which is longer than you think. He even waived at the kid before he shot him.

Edit: Ok I just watched it again and its closer to 25 seconds. Also, I'm not so sure the kid is dead which could be a bigger problem than if he is.
