Breaking Bad chat

[Wirey]

Okay, so here's my take:

Skylar is dead. Her telling Walt to whack Jesse is her Lady McBeth moment. And what, you may ask, leads her to suicide? Why, the accidental death/murder of Marie, or course!

Walt Junior, also dead. See; The Pearl by Steinbeck.

Hank? Dead. He's going to protect Jesse in order to bring Walt down. He said to let Jesse die, but he secured his seat belt. After Marie is killed, Hank will stop at nothing to destroy Walt.

Anyone care to disagree with my perfect synopsis?

 

[Me Myself]

nope.

Just anxious to see what actually happens

I am almost sure Walter dies by cancer. I just wonder if in jail or just after hearing a "guilty" veredict. Then again, I am completely sure of nothing.

It has been an outstanding series so far. I only hope I think the ending is epic and orgasmic.

 

[Wirey]

If you've got no insight, why would you interrupt? Tell me, why did Walt go back for the ricin?

 

[Revoltingest]

No way!
Walt has second thoughts about whacking Jesse, so Skylar offs him herself.
Marie tries once again to intervene, but is completely taken aback by Skylar's new turn.
Hank is under investigation for his complicity in the meth manufacture & distribution.
Junior kills Hank after his indictment. Saul hires a "cleaner" to fix it for him.
Saul then goes on the lam, but only because he is off filming the pilot for his new TV series.
Hewl joins weight watchers, & morphs into this....

I already see Saul in his own series. Did you notice his name is actually "It's all good, man"?

Skylar going after Jesse is interesting. I still think she'll die. After all, Walt started the whole thing to help his family. What could be more poetic than their deaths?

Yes...nice arc!
Hank, being the tireless martyred good guy, deserves to be caught up in some awful fate he doesn't deserve.

 

[Wirey]

He does. But, as the guy in the White Hat (notice white) I don't like his chances. What do you think, why did Walt go back for the ricin?

 

[Revoltingest]

He was going to make ricin crispy treats for Jesse or Hank?

The OP's predictions seem plausible. The only thing I feel pretty sure of right now is that

Spoiler: Spoiler

Jessie wont be killed by the hit Walt prepared to put on him.

Something will prevent that from happening. Notice that Walt didn't want to do it, it was Skylar's idea, she's always paranoid about something happening to the family; Hank is right when he says that Walt actually cares about Jessie. Of course, Walt is absolutely out of reach of redemption in Jessie's eyes at this point, so Walt will have to bite the bullet (pun intended) in some way in the near future.

Also about Hank and Jessie, I agree. Hank acted like he didn't care when Gomez questioned the validity of Jessie's fear of being killed, but when I see him interact with Jessie, I actually see him caring a bit about him more than just for the sake of bringing down Walt. I think he pities him for what he perceives Walt has done to him.

EDIT: I dont think that Jr. will die though, I just dont see that happening. EDIT: but your reference to the Pearl, does make sense. It wouldn't surprise me either way.

Oh the contradictions! It's a perfect plot line for the show!

Lady McBeth, anyone? Failed hit at Marie's house kills Marie/Hank, Skylar realizes it's her fault, and blam! Dead chick at the car wash.

I hope not. It's more fun to imagine Skylar walking on a darker side than even Walt.

Ridiculous idea:
Skylar kills Walt (after locating the money), & runs away with Saul.

 

[Me Myself]

Yes...nice arc!

To be fair, to me he stopped being the good guy at least, by the last season.

There were many moments in which it was completely clear that he was keeping on on the job for his pride alone and nothing else.

He was full of spite and regret given he getting out of graymatter project that made his friends rich. When he talked to Gustavo, if you watch that scene again, you will notice that gustavo while he was tlaking to walter about being a provider to his family, what he was actually talking about was how much of a good man he was and how he was such a "man" for being abe to do this.

You realise then and from moments onwards, that his main motivation was the need to feel he contributed to his family, which is not the same as having his family okay. It was a pride thing "i am the kind ofan that takes care of his family and if I go, they will never need a thing ever"

Rewatch that scene, it is totally worth it

I think its all an act. Hank doesnt give a rats butt about jesse as long as he gives him walt. The reason he put on the seatbelt was because he is afraid anytng might happen to his opportunity to get walt.

He would truly love something happening to jess, imho. He is still mad about. Hm that such a low life gae him so much trouble because he rightfully(in his mind) beat the crap out of him for threatening his family.

Jesse is a means to an end.

 

[Revoltingest]

Jesse is a means to an end.

Hank even planned to use Walt's possible murder of Jesse at their meeting.
Anything to convict Walt. But this isn't so egregious, since Walt made the
CD framing Hank for the whole meth business, & murder of the rivals.

He would have no problem if he didnt rry to pursue hank, and he nows they wouldnt try to blame him if he doesnt pursue him.

He sees e pursue of justice as something that you just have to do, or that at least he needs to do. Its the should, its the must.

He cant let walt not pay for it, if he has to risk his reputation, he will, but he sure as hell doesnt plan on losing, first of all, because walt has to pay.

 

[DreadFish]

That ******* cliffhanger!!! :thud:


I KNEW that it would happen though. That was the variable that was going to happen.

Spoiler: SPOILER

First, when Walt gave himself up, I knew that those guys were going to come anyway. Second, when Hank had a heart to heart moment with his wife. They dont just put stuff in this show, its for a reason. Why would Walt call the guys just to call them off? They could have just had Walt not call them, but he did. Why would Hank have a moment with his wife over the phone and say "I love you"? Because now he might just die right afterwards.

Who, if anyone, do you think is going to die in this exchange??

I'll tell ya, that was like the most hardcore cliffhanger yet.

 

[Revoltingest]

Walt's assassins are terrible shots, but I expect they'll prevail.

Yeah, all the elements are in their favor, but something's gotta give. It can't just turn out the most obvious way that it would turn out. Something is going to happen.
