Breaking Bad Season 5 Official Thread

[Mr. Manhattan]

i have a feeling Walt is gonna use the Ricin on himself when this is all over

 

[TillWeDie]

damn...this also makes me think how Gus would run the politics in this country

Ain't it funny how we always root for the bad guy until he does some foul shyt, and then he needs to die.

Of course it is. I was still on Walt's side but thinking about what this situation has set in motion it's not gonna end well.

 

[sm0ke]

It's just about done. Walt's transformation is almost complete. He hasn't killed his Fredo or Manolo yet... I'm not sure who it's going to be. I don't think it will be Skylar. I think it will be Jesse

 

[ThatKidBlackHippy]

I am still whole heartedly rooting for Walt lol

 

[obarth]

that he has an actual reason to be sad about, because when he made the decision to take the gun he didn't realize shorty new the names as well...

That's the bad writing part I was talking about, breh. Why did Walt take that gun in the first place? You guys really expect me to believe Walt thought Mike was gonna kill him at that point? After spending a whole couple episodes getting out of the game and making that explicitly clear to his former partners in crime, he's going to kill the fukking brother in law of the DEA agent that's on his ass? That's how Mike is going to exit the game? At that point, Mike was the least dangerous to Walt then he'd ever been. Mike could have genuinely killed Walt multiple times this season already, and Walt never reacted as scared as the normal person would because he knew he had some leverage and that Mike was a reasonable guy. Getting out of the game was not going to magically make Mike reckless enough to kill Walt. I'm willing to say that Walt maybe was pushed to kill him because of his ego in the end, but the premeditation was there as far as killing Mike being an option in the first place. That scene would be executed much better minus the lamentation about being able to get the list from Lydia. That's Walt's true Breaking Bad moment. The forced and illogical remorse does nothing for the scene.

Jessie didn't get his money. He got to paid some how.

Which would be stupid on both of their parts, 1 or both would be dead, if it's Sky, she can't take care of Holly and Walt jr. and Jessie would never get his money, think for a second, would you risk the backlash for 5 million over Skyler? GTFOH on that non sense.

Killing Mike wasn't foul though...thats like saying Gus was a good guy and Walt killing him was some foul shyt. I find it funny how people all of sudden hate Walt now but when he damn near killed that kid wit Ricin it was all good.

Man, Walt took the gun cause he didn't want it to be used on him. I don't believe Walt went to the meet saying, "I'm going to kill Mike". If that were the case he wouldn't have left the gun in the car when he gave him the bag.

Mike pissed him off, Walt gets the gun and kills him.

Not complicated.

 

[melraH]

just got to check the episode out, I feel like we are for a long cliffhanger next ep, so who do you think will die of the main characters next ep, jesse?( he is def going to get emotional over mike ) skylar? Flynn?

Killing Mike wasn't foul though...thats like saying Gus was a good guy and Walt killing him was some foul shyt. I find it funny how people all of sudden hate Walt now but when he damn near killed that kid wit Ricin it was all good.

Why...would...Mike...kill...Walt? God forbid anyone point out any flaws with this show to any of you guys. What is Mike's motivation to kill the brother in law of the DEA agent that was seconds from locking him up? Mike spent the better part of two episodes vocalizing his exit from the game. He's going to add that much heat to himself at the very moment he's getting out? Walt is on his way to help Mike leave the game and all of a sudden decides he should protect himself from dude when he's never brought protection the numerous run ins he's had with Mike before when Mike had motivation to kill him? Has Walt ever even showed aggression at the times Mike has had a gun pointed at him? He had a damn smirk on his face the last time.

My whole point is Walt went there knowing that killing Mike was a definite possibility. In the heat of the moment he doesn't realize he can get the list from Lydia and makes the decision that he was already aware he might have to make. Name me the times in this whole series Walt has carried a weapon for protection as opposed to going on the offensive against someone?

Who says walt is worried about Mike Killing him? Walt took the gun so he can Kill Mike or at least Coerce him to give up the names... again

I wasn't referring to you when I said "you guys", my bad. Only the first sentence was referring to you. People in this thread are saying Walt took the gun for protection from Mike.
