After having watched tonight's episode; I'd have to say that's a pretty good call, nothing that has happened precludes any of that.

 

My reaction at the end of the episode



I didn't think it was going to be drawn out with Hank like that, but I guess it had to be because he's such an integral character to the plot. As soon as he started with " Walt, you're the smartest guy I know..." - I knew that was going to be his last line. And the other thing is that after the way WW acted towards Jesse after he found him under the car - I don't think he comes back to "save" Jesse. I think it's passed that - they want each other dead.

I didn't see WW taking Holly! Holy good god, that came out of nowhere. I also thought it was interesting to see WW call back to the house and put on that show with the police obviously there to clear his wife and the rest of his family. I didn't seem the splitting up - but clearly, they do - which would explain why WW is so melancholy at the Dennys in the opening episode of the season.

 

Gotta' admire the characters of Hank, Gomie, Mike and Don Salamanca

They died with their boots on. The twins for that matter, too


@ Conrice - I had to watch the phone call scene twice to get the subtlety of Walt's ploy

I think it's evident that the M-60 is for the Aryans, but who is the ricin is intended for, is still a mystery to me.

Far-fetched theory #1.

Walt blasts the ***** and recovers the remainder of his money. Springs Jesse and let's him go with his word to return the money for the family and takes the ricin himself

 

Far fetched theory number two.

I'm plumping for a "Shawshank Redemption" kind of ending.

Walt and Jessie end up running a charter boat business down on the Mexican coast with $20 mill to keep them comfortable.

The rest goes to Skylar and Mariee, with the proviso that they never have to put up with their whining again.

Good outcome I'd say.

 

Cheers, SB

 

Yeah, I can't figure it out. It seems that it's only been 2 episodes that WW has wanted Jesse dead - but I can't see it changing. I mean, the fact that WW told Jesse about his junkie girlfriend (from a few seasons ago) - that says it all - I don't know how they don't try to off each other.

But I totally agree, WW has all the motivation in the world to go after the ****'s. Losing 70 million is not going to make anyone happy. And they killed a family member in cold blood right in front of him.

55-60 million to Mariee (to get her out of your life) would be a deal!

 

WTF? what the hell are those two doing back in the scene?

Yes, I know who they are, but that was series one stuff. Why have they suddenly reappeared?

BTW : good chemistry nerd joke.

"So we like, did this experiment today in Chemistry.

And, like, we kind of made magnesium combine with oxygen.

And I was kinda like; Wow, that is so OMg."

 

Feeling like Gus right now

 

Ozymandias by Percy Sheeley

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.


Interesting that this poem was the basis of last week's episode

 

I can't wait for next episode to see WW unload a belt from that machine gun at the ***** haha. Going to be awesome!!1
