Breaking Bad Starts Again

That’s how I chose to interpret it.

Also I’ve really been hating the way Hank had been progressing in the series, in that he was losing his edge and showing a lot of weakness. I liked seeing him go out like man. I’m bummed about Gomez though.

Ya if you watch the “Next week on Breaking Bad” he has a conversation with Saul and they talk about it looks like how they “DEA” are going to go after her regardless. [/quote]

I thought they were talking about Uncle Jack for some reason. Never even crossed my mind that he meant the DEA. [/quote]

Uncle Jack comes into the screen when they’re discussing it but why would he want to kill Walts family?[/quote]

Marie knows about the Video that Hank and Jesse made(I think she does), or at least Jack will have that impression. And the fact that he knows Walt ran away and is not with his family would possibly make him believe that Marie told Skylar as well.[/quote]

Okay but if they’ve collected the tape, destroyed it, what difference does it make if someone is aware of its existence?

I would assume that Jesse may have let it slip that Skylar knows everything. That plus what optheta said above.[/quote]

I’m not sure if either of them know about Uncle Jack.

If you guys are correct, that would be one weak tie and I’d be disappointed

The only thing I can figure would be Uncle Jack going after Skylar/Walt Jr. / Marie - would be they need Walt to teach Meth Damon how to cook.

Though I don’t foresee that since a) they have Jesse and b) he basically lead them to $80M

Liked the way Hank kept his head up till the end.

His line about Walt being the smartest person he knew but too dumb to see his inevitable death was awesome

$80M[/quote]

Genius.

Yeah which leads to one thing I just don’t get. The nazis got like 70 Million now, enough for several lifetimes for each of them plus expanding the movement and building a fucking Wolfsschanze if they so please.

Why the fuck are they so pants-on-head retarded and keep cooking meth, unnecessarily putting them on DEA radar for what can now be considered low reward?

We don’t know the size of their gang. Granted there are only a few of them in the desert to retrieve the money, but they managed to arrange to have 10 or so (can’t remember the exact number) guys killed simultaneously.

Also, I’m wondering whether the cooking is something Todd is trying to break into on his own. He didn’t mention cooking when he made the case to spare Jesse, although that may have been to get Walt to agree. I think the cooking might be a way of Todd emulating Walt, whom he admired, and wanting to make something of himself.

What would your ideal ending to the show be?

Also what would be worst way the show could end for you?

Last 2 episodes are 75minutes including commercials, w00t

I think its just Todd who wants to cook because he wants to impress Lydia.

I think its Todd going out on a limb as he’s in love with that corporate psycho girl

Idk what my ideal ending would be anymore. I wanted Jesse and Walt to make up but I have a feeling that that will never happen.

The worst ending would be one in which Skylar and Marie both survive. I want both of their characters to die but I can settle for one or the other.

The worst way the show could end for me would be Walter White becoming the ultimate white knight and using that big gun to break Skylar out of prison and dying in the process.

The best way: Walter living on unscathed in the Bahamas with a boatload of money and a new 25 year old girlfriend.

Todd convinced Jack to take Jesse to home base so he could be interrogated then killed. Todd fucked up the cook which lead to the execution of Declan’s crew. Lydia wants increased purity. Todd is keeping Jesse alive to impress Lydia.

I really really do believe that Todd was fully intending on having Jesse cook when he stopped him from being executed. Say you are going to kill him so Walt is ok with it and why kill him when he can make a better product.

BTW- I totally see that as a typical “bad guy” flaw. Whenever they catch the good guy, they could easily blow them away but they always have to take them away to their lair to do things and the good guy always escapes. Jesse is going to escape. Bad guys need to learn to just kill the guy and not pussy-foot around it.

I agree.

I also think Walt will go back to rid the world of Uncle Jack and get his money back.

In doing so he will find Jessie and will have an end of life change of heart and free Jessie, probably giving him some of the money. Somehow I see Walter realizing how everything he has touched has turned to rot and has to make it up to Jessie.
