I enjoyed the episode a lot, but couldn't help but think a few times "wow, this is really over the top." Whereas the "I forgive you line" worked, the "it's not over until I say it's over" in Saul's office and the "because I said so" in the back of the car with Mike and Jessie felt forced and out of character. Yes, Walt is a bad ass. Yes, Walt thinks his s*** doesn't stink. But Walt was good when he was outsmarting/outmaneuvering people in an "innocent" sort of way. He was a bumbling idiot (criminally speaking) with crazy knowledge about science. This episode mad him more Rambo-like which just didn't fit.

 

The "I forgive" line worked so well because that's your typical Walt - totally oblivious to what others are thinking/feeling at the moment. He was only concerned with what he thought Skylar would want to hear. He has no idea that she is truly afraid of him now and that emotional connection is long gone.

He's not the same person he was in season one. Odds are that attitude is what ends up being his downfall, however that happens.

He's not, but he's always been a nervous wreck about things and never seemed comfortable having to perform X job to get him out of trouble. That was the case even last year in the finale

when he was rigging up the car bomb.

The sudden flip seems just that - sudden.

He's been heading down that road for a while now. He detaches a little more from his former self each time he does something crazy.

I wonder what the beginning of the episode was foreshadowing. Could be the end of the series or something in between.

Are you watching the same show everyone else is? Just curious.

I watched the finale from last season before the premiere. Walt is frazzled, nervous, unsure, etc. etc. when he's trying to rig that bomb on Gus' car. He's not this stone-faced "don't question me" character. Yes, there's a progression from season 1 and he just took down his biggest nemesis so he's very confident. But he's never been so in-your-face about it before. Sorry, but that scene with Saul where it's a close-up and he's breathing like Christan Bale as Batman was a bit much.

 

Clearly this is a new Walt, look at Jessie's reaction when he says "because I said so" or whatever in the back of the car. He turns around like "what the f***? Who are you?"

He's gaining confidence and digging himself deeper. It seems perfectly reasonable.

WHy do they keep calling Britney one of the best Big Brother players of all time? She wont no comps, she was played from day 1 by her biggest ally, and was pretty much just a pretty face. Thats one of the WORST players ever.

LOL, I think you can stop worrying about spoilers for episodes that happened in past seasons.

Yeah I wasn't sure. I noticed some people in here were only up to season 2/3 so I didn't want to ruin anything.

Thats my reason for liking her. I feel like they tried to get Rachel back or something and ended up with Brit. They needed another female player. Still, Brit is one of the bottom rung players.

The entire show is about his conversion. You're never satisfied.

OHHHHhhhhhhhhh. BREAKING BAD. WHOAAAAAA.

Walt in the past is a consistent "Oh s*** Im in trouble" worrier, but then he wins and he does a 180 to "Everything i touch turns to gold" until he gets in trouble again. I though last night's episode was very consistent from his character.

She looked better two years ago.

Black Dynamite is awesome...

 

b**** slapping a guy named Cream Corn, little Michael Jackson said "You're the sorriest motherf***er in this motherf***er, motherf***er!"

His "conversation" with Saul was awesome, too.

 

Seconded.

She definitely looks saggier this year. Janelle looks like she had another bob job.

 

Agreed on Britney. Never much of a game player. Wonder if they just wanted someone more recent or a bunch of girls declined.

Bob jobs are the worst.
