Breaking Bad on amc

Tonights episode was masterful. My jaw was on the floor during Walt's "confession." Jesse going ballistic at the end was icing on the cake. I thought his eyes were going to pop out of socket. I've never seen so much tension in a show before on a weekly basis.

The table side guacamole scene was awesome. Walt's fake confession was incredible. Still curious to know what happens with Todd blabbering about all the details to his skin head peeps.

For me, there was one part of the episode that doesn't make sense. When Jesse has the ricin cigarette theft epiphany, he realizes Walt was the one that took it. This is confusing to me because Brock was poisoned by the lily of the valley plant, not ricin. When Jesse is holding a gun to Saul's head, he is screaming about the stolen ricin and how Walt poisoned Brock. This makes no sense because Jesse knows Brock was poisoned by the plant. So, even if he did know that Walt stole the cigarette, how would that connect the dots to Brock being poisoned by Walt? Also, I thought Walt covered his tracks for the missing cigarette with the Rumba scene. Any insight from the peanut gallery?

I think the scene before kind of set that up, when Jesse told Walt to stop playing him. When the dots started connecting with the missing weed to the missing cigarette, I think he just put together the missing cigarette was just a smokescreen but realized since Walt did that he also gave Brock the plant.

It was mostly the light bulb came on that Walt has always been using him, one way or the other.

Also the realization that he had lied straight to his face, not just about knowing where the cigarette was the whole time but he knows Walt killed Mike. He finally realizes he can not trust Walt at all.

Fantastic episode. Have to admit I did not make the connections that Jesse made. I could tell with the way Saul looked at Huell that something was up. I was under the impression that Huell took his phone and that the "Vaccum" guy was going to kill him.

I watched the episode again today, and you can clearly see Huell put his hand in Jesse's pocket. Hard to believe I missed that. Jesse is living on borrowed times, also anyone else highly annoyed by Marie this episode? I loved how Walt called her out about luring Jr. to her house.

That's exactly what I thought at first; I thought it was a fancy way of setting someone up to be killed, and the bag of money given to Jesse was in fact the payment for the guy to off him. Before they came back from commercial break, I thought it was merely Jesse realized they were setting him up to get killed.

The reason he makes the connection is because the entire ploy was "Gus knew about the Ricin so he stole it to poison Brock with as a true F.U"

Walt said it wasn't him and that only Gus would do something so terrible, in fact had he not done this Jesse would've killed him already. Once he realized it was Huel who took it, it all clicked that Walt poisoned him and orchestrated all of it. Because why else would Huel or Saul do that if not for Walt?

Glad to know I was not the only one thinking this. Just goes to show how unpredictable BB is.

I'm confused about the cigarettes. What did he realize? I thought Walt had the ricin cig?

He realized that Huel had taken the pot without him noticing. Thus this made him think back to the ricin. As you may remeber he accused Walt of having Saul get Huel to grab it off him. As well as he has finally figured out how much Walt his lied and manipulated him. So with Saul's conformation he has finally figured out what Walt has done.

Oh, ok. I thought for some reason Jesse had some ricin on him just then.

Many tanks!

Anytime, it can be hard to keep up with this show. Luckily I have Netflix, and have watched every epsiode 2 or 3 times.

I would go back and watch, but I would want to skip past every skylar or hank appearance in the show.

Will be interesting to see what becomes of Ricky Hitler and the two neo-nazis with the trailer load of methyl amine.

I haven't figured out the point of Todd's storytelling yet. It's obvious he has a high regard for Walt still.

My first thought was Todd will end up bringing the ultimate downfall of Walt. The story gets out maybe. He tells others. His uncles crew gets busted cooking meth and they roll on Walt for a light sentence. I don't know.

Yeah, it was made very clear in the last opener that they are very careless. Todd isn't the brightest guy, and his uncles aren't any better. Only a matter of time until they are caught, and they would rat out Walt in a heart beat. Or at least the uncles would.
