I saw the final episode already. Don't click if you truly care about this dumb ass show.

Walt "wins" in the end. Loses everyone he ever cared for in the process, but he was so power hungry it didn't faze him. I guess that's their little shocker :ehh: .

final episode :comeon:

shut up

- walt is basically like the dude from the shield. We just need the OG Forrest wittaker to come in and break down how he kills kids, poisons babies; kills women and holds his wife hostage. This dude is basically evil at this point
- And walt is a damn idiot; u only got 1-2 years left of life; why not take the 5 mil; save some money for the kids college and use the rest to spend as much quality time with the fam as possible. Instead dude wants to build an "empire" which he prob wont be around for to reap the benefits. ( i could understand if dude had the whole rest of his life left and didnt want to settle for 5 mil but the clock is ticking)

- The only dinner more awkward was the office dinner party episode

oh, and Mike would have killed dirt bike boy.

please, if you're reading this? Don't fool yourself into thinking otherwise.

Mike may be an old man and tells some good jokes, but the only things that divide Mike from Walt is loyalty and cancer.

Then why was Mike tearing up when he was watching his granddaughter play? The kid's death clearly affected him, and helped lead to his initial decision to cash out. Plus if he was so cold-blooded he would've killed Lydia already.

Its the opposite
The fact that he only has a little time left is probably why he's going all in. He really has nothing to look forward to. If he had a future, he would have took that 5 milli.

Had an impromptu Breaking Bad/Summerslam viewing party at my place with my girl and some friends :leon:

-The cold open was grim as fukk w/ just ambient music being played. I wonder what happened with Drew's body since they weren't gonna dispose him. Jesse snuffing Todd was appropriate.

-Todd explaining himself to Walt & Mike was a great scene because he was echoing what Walt used to say to Jesse ".....us vs them, Gale loses!". Not to mention Skyler saying she gave the money to Ted "...for us, for the family" (which was true) in Crawl Space. The scene reminded me of two brothers (Jesse/Todd) fighting for their father's (Walt) attention. Todd even called him "Mr. White" (Notice they cut to Jesse precisely after he said that, Jesse was heated).

-Breaking Bad usually has one "fukk" per season. We got it lol

-Jesse and Mike quitting made perfect sense, I called it. Mike & Jesse's plan w/ Declan and the methylamine was a good idea but of course Walt wouldn't take it. This is probably Walt's 5th out of the meth game and he ignores it. This time, it will cost him. Walt again is missing the big picture that 5 mill and a clean out >>> 100 mill and death by cancer/thug life.

-Walt whistling after that pep talk to Jesse shows how far Walt's come in the drug world now being able to shrug off a child's death as "shyt happens". Jesse looks at Walt after he says "Because I said so.", is disgusted with Walt's Icarus tale, sees Walt continue to cook without a care in the world, and his refusal to take the 5 mill deal all points to Mr. White fully embracing that thug life. A far cry from who they were in Season 1.

-Skyler was actually close to revealing the truth, the fact that she fukked Ted is the gift that keeps on giving lol. Marie was lookin type good. No Lydia this ep.

-Gray Matter. Walter White. Elliot Schwartz. Schwartz is German for black, thus Gray Matter. Walt's revelation here is full confirmation of his all or nothing approach. $5,000 for 2.16 billion. $5,000 for his children's birthright (Somewhat offtopic, Walt using the word birthright here is interesting as Walt's life resembles the story of Isaac and Esau, Esau gave up his birthright [the recognition as firstborn] for a bowl of soup and Isaac reaped the benefits. Walt gave up Gray Matter for $5,000 and Elliot/Gretchen reaped the benefits). Walt revealed the biggest mistake of his life to Jesse and Jesse ironically shrugged it off, Walt's ego took a crazy hit here.

-Walt/Jesse con't. Walt had a decent point about Jesse/Mike now selling to a competitor after all that they've been through but now the meth business would be someone else's problem, not theirs. I liked Jesse calling out Walt's attitude as he originally only wanted $737,000 (Season 2 premiere was "737"). Walt's gonna get that empire to make up for Gray Matter, no matter the cost. It's not that Walt provides for his family and if he can't someone else (Elliot/Gretchen/Hank/Marie/the community) will, Walt has to be the MAN to provide for his family or they don't get it at all.

-Walt/Skyler/Jesse's dinner was hilarious and awkward. Jesse tends to be "the child" in these scenarios and it was great how he tried to make small talk in order to ease the tension. I like that Skyler's attitude towards Jesse hasn't changed from the third episode and now she knows that Walt and Jesse are dealing together. Walt spinning the situation in order to make Jesse feel guilty was :wow:. Walt's getting sloppy partially because of excessive pride but also because he doesn't care anymore. That's what I got from Walt during this scene.

-Walt being "chained" in the garage reminded me of Krazy 8 chained in Jesse's basement. His smirk at the very end of the episode was chilling.

-Declan is trouble. I think he will be related to Walt's M60 somehow. Declan vs Walt will not end well.

Two (10) episodes left. Everybody wins? You damn right :shaq: 6>5>3>2>4>1.
