The second half was greatness. I love getting back to the Walt/Jesse dynamic after they have basically had almost seperate stories going on in the 2nd season.
I don't think I've ever seen a TV show or movie where a character's cancer remission is seen as anything less than 100% great.
If I was in Walt's position, I'd cook enough to live comfortably for the rest of my life and then retire from the business. Too bad that plan won't work for Walt.
So I was trying to psycho-analyze why Walt was so angry about the news of his cancer remission.
I guess the obvious reason is that he's just angry because he went through all of this (highly illegal) activity to take care of his family, and it turns out he might be around for a while longer. But could there be a deeper meaning? Perhaps he had accepted that it was his time, and going back to the pilot (prior to him finding out about the cancer) it seemed he wasn't all that happy with his life to begin with.
There's also the fact that he almost died anyway over the weekend because he was in a rush to make money for his family, and as it turns out he had plenty of time left.
I was wondering if Walt installed the tankless water heater correctly in terms of making sure there was a return flue (that was up to code) because I had thought about tankless when replacing my water heater in 2007, and it would have required more work done to my house to get the requisite piping in place.
I think the tankless water heater will most definitly play some part in the accident.
I was actually looking at them at Lowe's last night, and there are a ton of warnings plastered all over them about how they require a professional installation because of the special installation issues and the calibration of the gas line load.
In order to do that, you must be able to calculate the exact line pressure load (in pressure and BTUs) of every gas-using fixture/appliance in your home, and you need to know the exact mainline load coming in from your utility.
If you were to undercalculate your total load, you could cause a big-time problem with the tankless water heater.
Pure speculation on my part, but with what's going on with the territories and such right now, could the house blowing up be some elaborate plan set up by Walt to make it look like an accident with the hot water heater, and the two body bags are actually two competing dealers? Pretty far out there I guess considering having two drug dealers killed in his own house could implicate him further, but with this show, who knows?
Yeah, the season finale is May 31. I like that AMC doesn't skip a week because of a holiday (Easter or Memorial Day). Even HBO has started skipping holidays.
Eventhough everyone should know better than to do heroine, I feel bad for Jesse.
Thanks to Breaking Bad, I can now cook up a speedball.
A speed ball is typically H and coke. Not sure if they call H and meth the same thing. And I'm not researching on my work PC.
Jessie sure is going down the spiral. Based on the previews, just the thing he and his relapsed girlfriend need is a pile of cash. That will be shot rather quickly. Burn through the cash or death, whichever comes first.
Very creepy, even more so that she did it once before for him. My wife was saying if a girl did that in her office she'd be 'done' as far as the other women were concerned.
