Just a thought: Breaking Bad is the Star Wars prequels done right.
I don't see the connection at all. Please expand on this.Greg_S_H said:Just a thought: Breaking Bad is the Star Wars prequels done right.
Me too. There were a couple shots where you could see the fence and I expected Todd to pop up and start shooting people. That wouldn't make any sense but I was still waiting for it.Lou Sytsma said:The last scenes by the pool were so tense as I kept expecting something violent to happen.
From a legal standpoint but Hank will just use that book as the catalyst to start investigating Walt. Hank will probably become convinced when he looks at things like Walt's cancer diagnosis coinciding with Heisenberg appearing on the scene, Walt being a chemistry genius, a gas mask the DEA found coming from a Walt's high school lab, Hank believes that Jesse is Walt's pot dealer and he knows that Jesse is involved with the blue meth, Walt just happening to be at a DEA sting when they were surveilling Badger, Walt's huge 'gambling' winnings (Marie will probably reveal that Walt paid Hank's massive medical bills), Walt buying a car wash, Hank having shared snippets of Gale's murder investigation and investigation of Gus with Walt, Walt causing a car wreck when Hank was trying to get a look at Gus' laundry and Skyler's recent erratic beahvior. Once he puts all of those things together, I think he'll start talking to Skyler and that's when things could go real bad for Walt.MarkMel said:As for Hank finding the book, all Walt has to do is deny, deny, deny. If that's all Hank has, it's pretty flimsy.
True, but the the thought was already planted in his mind evenQuentin said:My problem is using the W.W. as a 'spark' for Hank. Really? The flashback alone reminded us that he'd already gone down the path of trying to figure out who W.W. was and "Walter White" came up and he dismissed it!
Nothing has happened since then that would cause him to now think W.W. is, in fact, Walter. In fact, I'd argue he has more sympathy for Walter now and be less inclined to be suspicious of him.
I realize they have to use SOMETHING to get Hank back on his tracks. And, this episode was otherwise brilliant. But, that moment on the can rang false to me.

Jessie with the gun after Walt left, he thought Walt was coming for him and his face when he realized that wasn't the case. - awesome
Plus, Gale Boetticher's initials even close the inscription in the book. Maybe it's convenient for Hank to have found the book or for Walt to have kept it but Hank would absolutely make the connection when he sees what's written in the book.TonyD said:Now he finds the same note in a book In Heisenberg's bathroom the
thought is there again and now he will be very suspicious of him
and will certainly try to make a stronger connection.
In Episode 3, Walt officially moved back into the White family-house. Unpacks a box, takes out the book, and goes "heh":TravisR said:Plus, Gale Boetticher's initials even close the inscription in the book.

. Finally, Hank knows. And now, knowing, no one else knows that he knows, so now he has to weigh the possible collateral damage to his life and career if he spills it and arrests Walt, or does he just let him go off into the sunset?
I mean, by now, 3+ months after all of the shankings, no one can really say that there was much else that could have been done if all of their leads were dead and gone. OH, MAN, THIS IS GONNA BE A SLOW FUCKING YEAR.
It's not really worth taking up more thread time, but I mean it's a much more realistic portrayal of a character's corruption and fall. Granted, they have 80 hours versus 7 and a half.Lou Sytsma said:I don't see the connection at all. Please expand on this.
Yeah, that's pretty much my thinking, too -- there's no way in hell Hank's gonna tip Walter off that he's finally onto him, especially not when he's proved so incredibly adept at covering his own tracks for the past year-and-change. In my mind, there is only one antagonist left: Hank. With only 8 episodes left, I really can't see them developing another antagonist for Walt, on top of Hank.TonyD said:He cant arrest him yet there is no evidence.
Hank will investiagte, probably on his own. I doubt he will confide that info to anyone right away.
Haha, I thought I would pass out from the tension during that pool-scene. When Flynn was driving Holly around the pool, you're just thinking, "AHHHHH!! What's going to happen??" And then the Dump of Destiny™ occurs. What an amazing episode.Greg_S_H said:It's not really worth taking up more thread time, but I mean it's a much more realistic portrayal of a character's corruption and fall.

I guess everyone had their own fear of what might happen by the pool. I had the irrational idea that the ricin was somehow in the sunscreen that Walt Jr. Was putting on Holly. Of course, when Holly coughed at Hank's house, I thought, "Oh no."
I'm thinking maybe Hank will say, through gritted teeth, "Take your family and get out of here." That's how they're in New England (via Saul's guy). Maybe Declan and Co. will kill Hank, and that's why Walt is back to take care of them.

That scene made me think Walt is going to bone her down eventually.joshEH said:Also, my God...I would absolutely wreck Lydia. I am not alone in this notion, either, as I've seen so many others across the 'net commenting on it. She's really, really hot, in this uptight, hypochondriac-way. (The topics of meth and the Czech Republic are clearly aphrodisiacs for her.)
