Last week picked up pretty good imo, better than the rest of what the season offered. Now just to see what happens today.

See why it's got all those awards, jmebonner?

Oh man. Loved Walter being trapped in the RV tonight. Gonna be interesting to see the twins target changing too.

Agree, great episode. This season is finally speeding up.

Also agree with my bro that Skyler is extremely annoying. Also she's fucking ugly.

I can't believe those dumb shits went to watch the RV get destroyed after tricking Hank into leaving. Sheesh.

Yeah, I was kinda a little amazed they were still standing there, a PO'ed Hank shoulda appeared.

But I guess it was there to show sentimental purposes, the memories etc. Near death experiences, the galvanized metal incident, Jesse's future gone.

epic episode last night, I totally called Gus saving Walt. I can only hope that the twins leave Walt alone now.

Made up for the start of the season, was worth waiting.

Now I can't wait to see what's going on next episode.


Hank's bad times officially are over. I thought he was going to get nicked earlier this season.

Think Juan is gonna give Gustavo hell.. It's not over yet with Tio either.

I really wanted Hank to bite it, his character was really annoying and one-dimensional until last night when he finally spoke to his wife. For building up the twins so much as badasses, they can't even kill one fucking guy in a parked car? Pretty lame.

Really don't want Jessie back in the picture either.. and Gail(Gale?) was cool!

Great episode. My thoughts...

Gale has to die... He knows too much now and obviously wants money.
Hank has to find out eventually. Possibly start covering for Walt/Jesse?

#1) Who called and warned Hank?
#2) Is Gale really that careless? Or did Walt just want Jesse back?

#1) Who called and warned Hank?

#1) That is the big question left open. My guess would be Gus, as he felt bad about offering up his name to the twins so at least wanted to give him a fighting chance.

#2) I think Walt picked up on the fact that Gale could easily replace him. I think the temperature "mistake" Walt got mad at him for wasn't a mistake at all, but the tipping point where he realized Gale knew his entire process already and therefore made him expendable. So, he threw Gale off by claiming the process was wrong, used it as an excuse to get rid of him, and brought Jesse back in as Jesse already knew the process and already knew who he was anyway. The question left there is what will happen to Gale?

Well Hank was warned so they didn't totally blindside him. I assume the bag man in Gus's employ warned him.

Gale is kind of annoying and Walter obviously doesn't want him getting too good at cooking his formula since he could end up out of the picture. Getting Jesse back in neutralizes him as a threat, saves Hank, assuages his own guilt, and scores him major points with Skyler.
