Ah, man, you're pissing in my cheerios with all of your logic and understanding...
I predicted Ted wasn't dead last year. I also predicted Jesse and Hank v. Walt. I just want it to be right so bad. Maybe then, somebody will love me. :(
The reason I think Hank and Jesse is because how strongly the show is insinuating that it's Mike. These guys (the writers) are good at making it look one way and having it end up being another (see the exaggerated reports of Ted's death). But I do think something's totally up with that watch. Hank's playing his cards too close to the vest. Jesse's not fooled any longer by Walt's manipulations. We don't know how he broke up with his girlfriend, but I'd bet he just sent them away for safety. After Walt pulled the old cigarette in the Roomba trick, I'm guessing Jesse saw through it for what it was. These are the things that are adding up to me.
Obviously, all speculation and not a whole lot of evidence to go off of, but it's a fun game to play.
Ding dong! We have a winner. Walt's stance to Skylar that Jesse loves him now is just foreshadowing that Jesse actually doesn't.
Is it just me, or are we doing a lot of speculating on what's going on in the heads of Jesse and Hank this season? We don't know what Hank actually saw on the computer or what he was thinking when his boss was talking about a master criminal right under his nose. Meanwhile, we keep getting small glimpses of Jesse being really smart; the magnet solution, solving the logistical problems of cooking in the house, implications that he can cook by himself (which he can and did for the cartel). Theory: This season will be all Walt and Skyler; next season will be the same timeline, but from the perspective of Hank and Jesse, working together AGAINST Walt. Thematically, I think it plays out best with Hank and Jesse v. Walt, they being represented as pure-hearted. Walt, not so much.
Skylar's dead meat by Walt's own ricin-filled hand...er...cigarette.
This episode was ridiculously good. Episode number 50 executed almost exactly one year ahead in the timeline. One scary week at a time. There's no way that "52" birthday is real in the timeline.
Plus, when Walt learned it was Skyler's suggestion to send the kids with Marie and Hank, he basically made teethface...
Or he was distracted by her performance in Love and Other Drugs. Why didn't you guys tell me how bad that movie was? What's that? Oh. You did...? Sorry.
Spoiler Alert for those who don't know: Love and Other Drugs sucked.
Sure, starting with kittens is tough. But once you taste the life force, you'll see the value of this step when we move on to small, willful children...Yippee!
This just made me remember the first viral video I watched at work. It was 2003 (yep, I'm old!). My boss forwarded me the misadventures of Bubb Rubb and Lil' Sis. Ah, the memories.
Makes me wonder, what's the first trampoline accident video you remember seeing?
Just rewatched and I need to give credit verbatim, b/c hilarious:
"Someone...asked her to hold a balloon..."
Marcel the Shell aka (Shelldon Conch) has a lot in common with Charlie Sheen.

"Someone handed her a balloon," is the new "...something bad happened 'downtown.'"
Someone should call SNL and tell them Jenny Slate is effing hilarious.
"I won.". Walt will eat those words in the season finale of next season. Maybe all season, but def at the end.
Ted's not dead. This show executes cognitive dissonance better than any show I've ever seen. Most shows do it in a ham-fisted, obvious way. Not these guys. Ted'll blackmail the crap out of the Whites and be their main motivation to get back into cooking and taking over Gus's empire. Walt will want to off Ted badly but be unable to for some brilliantly crafted circumstance revolving around Skylar's affair with him.
Hank v. Walt is on like Donkey Kong. Hank will prove to be by far the most formidable opponent Walt's faced.
Jesse will team up with Hank to beat Walt.
Walt will kill a family member. Not indirectly or through manipulation. Straight up smoke em.
Not sure what will happen with Mike, but it's gonna be good...(duh)
Keep it real.
I had the exact thought while watching this episode; the juxtaposition of Walt and Jesse's ineptitude in trying to off Saul to the point that they're convinced to hire him while they have guns in his face vs. their current plan to try to get Gus. The ineptitude is back!
RJ Mitte provides a unique authenticity to the disabled character he plays on AMC's edgy new series Breaking Bad. (Sunday, 10 ET/PT).
Bad's Walter White Jr. has cerebral palsy. So does Mitte, 16.

No, she's doing it because if Ted gets busted, then the IRS starts snooping around and looks into her since she's the one who signed off on all the books. And what do they find? A woman with plus or minus $3,000,000 cash in vacuum sealed storage containers under the floor-boards of her house whose only cover story is that her husband won it gambling...So, in order to avoid that mess, she's trying to pay the fine and move down the road. But, Ted's far too stupid to do that. And he will cause a lot more problems.
Isn't this show great? Why didn't you guys tell me how great this show is? So great that I'm commenting on someone's understanding of the plot line 6 weeks after the fact in spite of the fact that only stu and I will probably ever read this comment! That is a pretty GREAT show!
