I actually really would have liked to see the scene where Hank is telling Gomez about the whole thing.joshEH said:I feel disappointed we were kind of cheated out of Jesse's confession that was entirely off-camera. That could have been a really powerful scene.
Me too. I wonder if they shot the scene but it got deleted for time since the audience can easily figure out that Gomez has been informed as to what's going on as soon as they see him there.Joe_H said:I actually really would have liked to see the scene where Hank is telling Gomez about the whole thing.
Walt Jr. is the character that I feel the most sorry for at this point. Walt, Skyler, Jesse, Saul are all criminals who have made their own beds. Hank and Marie are wreckage in Walt's wake but at least they know the real Walt now and are trying to stop him. Junior, on the other hand, is totally in the dark and is worried about his dad dying. When he presumably finds out the truth about his dad, it's going to be pretty brutal.Ronald Epstein said:2. Creating an "aha!" moment when Walt Jr. exclaims, "Dad, why
are you lying?!" For a brief second you think Walt is in big trouble
as his son is on to him --- only to find out that there is a different
thought pattern going on here altogether ("You fainted, didn't you?")
For myself, Hank's still in the nominal "good guy" column, at least for the moment, even after the events of last night's episode.SamT said:Wow, after this episode, I consider Hank as one of the bad guys now. The way he treated Jesse and consider him like a sub-human. It makes me want for Hank to go down long before Walter.
While it isn't Hank's job to judge people, I think asking Hank to not to be judgmental of Jesse is asking him to not have normal human feeling. Hank has seen and occasionally been a direct victim of the destruction that Walt, Jesse, Gus, Mike, Todd, Lydia, etc. have done and so I think it's nearly impossible for him to have much sympathy or concern for Jesse. Plus, Hank's plan- while potentially dangerous- would have worked if Jesse had followed it. Walt would have gotten caught on tape, there was no hitman to kill Jesse and the series would have been over 4 episodes early.SamT said:The last time I checked Hank was a cop and not a member of Nazi Germany. He is supposed to do his job and not judge people. I don't even care about Jesse. It's not about him. It's about Hank and the principal of what he was doing. A decent, honorable person wouldn't act like that.
