Good episode but nothing unexpected. Pretty safe to assume that it would fall apart. The question was how badly.

UNREAL, the new winner for best of the series. Walt on the phone with Skyler OMG, telling Jesse about Jane OMG. It does look like it will go out with the original plan of Walt dying but the family will have money. I think he will go try and save Jesse also, or at least giving us the idea he is on his way to. It was GREAT that he made Skyler look innocent on the phone after all that, he still has some kind of heart.

I sure as hell didn't see that child abduction coming :)

It was just Walter being desperate. He gave the child back quickly so it had little impact on the story. Walt always has to be in control and that was clearly him trying to show he still had it. He truly is a selfish individual no matter how he tries to spin it.

Taking the kid gave him the chance to tell the police Skyler isn't in on it. So it has a HUGE impact on the story IMHO.

Yup, on most of this.

Either he'll find out Jesse's still alive (pure blue meth being circulated again) or he'll go back to retrieve the rest of his $$$ from Todd's uncle.

lol I liked how the Sunday night football game was delayed (due to lightning) exactly the time Breaking Bad was on.

That episode blew my mind. On the edge of my seat the whole time. My wife even teared up at one point because Holly in the fire truck looked exactly like our daughter who turned 1 today.

I was scared Walt was about to do the unthinkable and kill Holly...

At this point I expect anything.

In the next week preview,
it seems like someone is threatening Skyler and Jr., so he has to return to protect them. I would assume it's Jack and crew.

I considered him going back for the money also. MUST watch again after Talking Bad, its too good to not watch it again.

The article I read...

pretty sure anyone can edit imdb, though if there's gonna be a flashback ep i'd guess it would be the next one with walt killing time with his new identity


ep was directed by Rian Johnson
Breaking Bad (TV Series) (3 episodes)
- Ozymandias (2013)
- Fifty-One (2012)
- Fly (2010)
