Yeah, that $177,000 is definitely NOT beside the point, because it’s a real, undeniable paper trail linking Hank to Walt’s illegal money. And worse than that, it makes Walt’s story more plausible, because it DOES seem more likely that a terrified victim would pay Hank’s medical bills, as opposed to a malevolent crime boss paying Hank’s medical bills.

32:15 you can actually see Huell take it out of his pocket and nod to Saul, so we can assume the reason Saul left earlier to “get a bag for the money” was really to tell Huell to do that. Nice job to Kailyn for picking up on that as I don’t think most reactors do, and not many pick up on the fact that Jesse realizes Walt poisoned Brock either and are usually confused as to what is happening until he confronts Saul about it, so nice job to Eric as well. Love that you both were able to put together different pieces of the puzzle like that. Some people seem to think it’s far fetched that Jesse would put those things together and make that connection, but I think they forget that was exactly what Jesse believed happened at first until Walt manages to manipulate him into thinking it was Gus instead. I think anyone that has been a victim of gaslighting knows that feeling of “I knew I was right the whole time and I can’t believe I let them talk me out of it and trusted them over myself.” I also think the scene of them in the desert earlier was done to show that Jesse is finally able to see through Walt’s bs now, especially after witnessing how Walt reacted to Drew Sharpe’s murder. Season 4 Jesse may not have believed that Walt was capable of caring so little about a child dying, but season 5 Jesse definitely can after that. Not to mention he knows he killed Mike and had all those guys in prison murdered, so he sees how far he’s willing to go to protect himself. I wouldn’t be surprised if deep down part of Jesse still wondered if it could have been Walt after all, and all he needed was that one piece of evidence to finally allow himself to believe it. Sorry for the essay but I’ll just say one more thing: I love your reaction to Walt’s “confession” tape because I also lost my MIND the first time I saw this episode and I could not believe what I was watching. I have never been so furious and disgusted yet shockingly impressed at the same time 😂 Wait I forgot one more thing…you are completely right to be concerned about some fans of this show and their love for Walt. The amount of people that try to justify and make excuses for what he did to both Jane and Brock is absolutely astounding. I swear some people literally think Skyler “cheating” with Ted is worse than both of those things combined lol. And don’t even get me started with their victim blaming of Jesse and Skyler for their reactions to Walt’s abuse instead of condemning Walt for the abuse itself. Ok I’m done lol excited to watch these final few episodes with you guys and hope to see you continue with El Camino and Better Call Saul as well😊

The thing about great characters and writing is that they actually make you feel something. Gus is my favorite TV character of all time, because he's such a great villain. Walter, is a great character, but my emotional response to *his level of manipulation to those close to him,* makes me really not like him. Skylar is such a amazingly acted character, that the actress kind of had to lay low in a sense, because of the the intense fan reactions, legitimately lashing out at her as if she were actually Skylar. While the Skylar/fan reactions were always a bit extreme... That, along with the other examples I mentioned, were all just a testament to the writing & acting on this show. That it makes you feel something.

And for that matter feeding one's broken ego doesn't count as purpose to me.

Walt’s repulsiveness actually has very little to do with his criminal behavior. The character of the man underlying the criminal is what people sense when they find it difficult to empathize with him. Walt also has almost no empathy for anyone else either - at least none that’s not self-serving. He’s not funny, or kind, or brave, or honorable, or considerate, or well-intentioned. What’s to like? He’s smart. Is that it?

There's a big difference between knowing things and having evidence of things that can stand up in court.

All Walter would have to do is put some doubt in the jurys mind and he'd get away with it.

Hot take: Hank's not a hero, but he's not one of the villains, either. He's another victim of Walt. I think the show tries very hard to show that Walt's actions are a kind of moral contagion, infecting everyone around him. When the show started, Hank was a good cop and a good husband. Even his bigotry was meant to be in light of itself -- when he said racist things, he was clearly playing a game, not expressing genuine opinions. It's only after the traumatic things that happened to him -- each caused by Walt -- that his character started to change. (Yes yes, Hank is an adult who can make his own decisions; I may as well say Walt is a victim of cancer and his mediocre marriage. But I still think moral contagion is a narrative the show itself pushes.)

I don't believe it's cowardice to do everything in your power to stay out of the prison system in the US, especially when it means your family loses everything as a result. Not just you. The legal system does not equate to justice. It just makes you a cog in the machine for the for-profit prison industry in the country with the highest prison population in the world. It's industry, not justice. And not 'owning up to it' to the state doesn't mean you're being a coward. It may just be because I can't stand the government, but I don't think they have any business calling it 'justice.' And of course they make you taking justice into your own hands illegal 🤐

A lot of ppl miss a key point in Walt’s confession. Walt drops in hints of how he actually felt and situations he was in during his time in the drug business. He simply moved the people around in the confession for who to blame etc. Don’t know why Kaitlyn thinks everything Walt does is pure manipulation. Sure he used manipulative tactics in the confession, but alot of the points he made of feeling scared and hopeless were actually true. In many cases he was left with no choice. Obviously it was Walt’s fault that he ended up in these situations. However, from the very beginning everyone who worked with Walt either tried to kill him or use him. Kind of disappointed some reactors only look through one lense because of their emotions. Very hard to fine emotionally intelligent people unfortunately

Our healthcare system here absolutely disgusts me and I get people feeling desperate. But doesn’t excuse the crazy choices he’s made in the meantime and he’s clearly gotten to where he enjoys it. Don’t worry you guys have a normal take on the show.

Among the many things this series does well is it manipulates viewers by establishing then exploiting biases. 1. Most fans of Walter fail to recognise the anchoring bias that was established in the first episode; where Walt is disrespected by students (in school and at the car wash); Walt's birthday celebration where Hank insinuates he isn't a man, gives him backhanded compliments, and then hijacks the party to watch himself on the news; and where his birthday hand-job is combined with nagging and distracted by ebay. This is the seminal reason for the imbalanced preference for Walt and the distaste for Skylar and Hank. This episode's confession is given credence by the way Hank publicly shat on Walt during the birthday party. 2. Framing bias is thoroughly used throughout the first three seasons to justify Walt's multiple felonies; murder, drug creating, larceny, terrorism, attempted murder, poisoning children, etc. 3. Once these are established, Walter Fans use False causality bias to strengthen the believe that Walt was forced into these actions, thus absolving him of full guilt. 4. As improbably successes begin to add up, fans begin to fall victim to Feature Positive effect, thus focusing primarily on the short-term "win" and ignoring the long-term destruction Walt leaves in his wake. The writers were truly amazing.

3:10 I think there's another important thing to consider about Hank relative to Walter, which is that he owns his mistakes. Assaulting Jessie obviously was unacceptable, but he also told the entire truth about it after the fact rather than trying to cover it up, despite everyone around him advising him to lie. That being said I don't think there is a "hero" in this story. All of the main characters have some sort of addiction or obsession, and one of the main themes is exploring the various ways in which addictions can manifest themselves. Walter is obsessed with control. Marie's "drug" when she becomes too stressed out is thievery and the escapism of pretending to be someone else. Jessie's is the more standard drug addiction. Gus' was revenge. Hank's is his casework, and when he can't do that, he tries to fill that hole with minerals.

For this level of the show, it’s just a shame - you’re missing out on 50% of the complex multi-level nature and philosophy that the authors put into it. For you, the picture is clear - good/evil, black and white, almost like Star Wars. Perhaps, due to your youth, you have not yet thought about this seriously.

Why is every Walt defending comment like this? "You're missing the nuance, its too one sided" bro get real. Hank has flaws but Walt is unequivocally meant to be the villain at this point, they show it so many times. Not pure evil but he's still a slimeball.

@@LordofLions maybe because it’s true?) what to be realistic about, is it necessary to call someone a “villain”? I don’t see any point in this, for me it’s flat. On the contrary, it is important to see a simple person instead of a villain. These aren't comics. Walter is an ordinary person, just like you and me, there was nothing villainous in him before the events and circumstances into which he was driven. It is the understanding of this that makes the show deep, and the characters’ feelings are ambivalent, as in reality. Step by step, in critical conditions, the hero performs actions uncharacteristic for himself, guided by and large by good intentions (just don’t tell me that he’s an egoist, he doesn’t care about his family, etc.: these stereotyped conversations are good in a psychologist’s office, not in real life, where such actions are committed unconsciously). Step by step he dives deeper, making mistakes. And the further you go, the more - and at some point it is already clear that there is no turning back. You realize that you were wrong, and as someone said earlier: “we are the world we created.” All that remains is to come to terms with the consequences, which are the price to pay for any choice in life. And it’s no longer possible to redo it, although you might want to. That is, in general, this is almost the path of The Hero with a Thousand Faces, which is why the show has become so popular. The hero’s path to himself, redemptive, but at the same time crippling and criminal, causing pain, destroying, and yet inevitable like fate.

That’s total BS, Hank would never be a dirty cop and it’s explained very clearly Explained why he can’t say anything about Walt Just yet, because there’s no proof and he’ll be laughed out the office. Sure he hit Jessie but that was one time for thinking he tricked him about Marie’s car crash.

I think calling Hank a dirty cop because he assaulted Jesse, is silly... That wasn't "police brutality", that was "A husband beating up a criminal who has information on his wife and floats the possibility of her being hurt" Hank would've beat him up the same way if he had been a plumber rather than a cop. That's like I don't know, if Hank had a kid and a guy walked by and grabbed his kid and Hank beat the shit out of him, would you say he's a dirty cop because he should have arrested him peacefully? That wouldn't have been "Hank the cop", that would've been "Hank the father". And in this case, it was "Hank the husband".

To me, one of the important reasons for gray morality as a trope is to uncover how attachment to a person can lead to misplaced sympathy for truly bad people. Neither Walt nor Hank, objectively speaking, deserve anyone rooting for them. But, because of the way the story is presented, it's easy to pick one you want to win. It's very similar in that way to both Dune and Lolita. In both, the protagonist is a horrible person, and the audience is meant to come away realizing that they feel wrong for sympathizing with the protagonist. It's a useful life lesson as well: just because you've been around a person and become attached to them doesn't mean you should act like they are beyond reproach. It's certainly a lesson Jessie could have leaned much earlier, then maybe he wouldn't have stood by Walt for so long.

On why people understand Walt…“The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things…” ― Henry David Thoreau

Off topic, but you guys should consider reacting to the first season of Fargo with Billy Bob Thornton. It's got a lot of similar vibes to Breaking Bad. EXCELLENT acting from almost literally every single character no matter how seemingly brief or unimportant, and also INSANELY good writing, and PERFECT direction. Second side note: check out the first season of True Detective. Both are shows that made perfect television for one stand-alone season and never quite could find that magic again in successive seasons. But both are just peak cinema in their first seasons with wonderful actors

I need help. I haven't seen the show since it aired. Jesse knows that Brock wasn't poisoned with the ricin. It was Lily of the Valley.

I think it's just that Jesse can see more clearly now how manipulative and ruthless Walt can be. He almost figured it out in 4x12 -- he'd guessed that Huell may have stolen the cigarette on Walt's say-so in order to poison Brock -- but he didn't understand the motive (he thought it was Walt getting revenge on Jesse). At that time Walt convinced Jesse he had no motive to poison Brock. Walt's plan was admittedly convoluted: He poisoned Brock (with the plant), counting on Jesse to initially panic and think it was his own fault (with the cigarette), then expecting Jesse to conclude it was Walt leading him to Walt's house, where Walt can convince him that it was actually Gus who poisoned Brock in order to trick Jesse into killing Walt! Thus convincing Jesse to turn on Gus. You're right that Huell stealing his weed proves nothing. We're just expected to think that it just got Jesse rethinking that whole situation and figuring out what actually happened.

People will go to such lengths to take Walter's side. People, he's a great character, but he's a bad person. He's not inherently evil, but he is corrupted, by pride and greed. And Hank yeah, he's not perfect, but he does not intentionally hurt anyone. He had one fit of rage against Jesse, and now he's scared for his future and thinks he can both get Walter and save his career. Thtat's not SO condemnable. If you don't want to consider him a hero sure, but he's a hero compare to Walter that's for sure.

Hanks bosses and colleagues would have never believed he was working with Gus,, because Hank was telling his coworkers Gus was the kingpin they were looking for.

22:51 it’s not beside the point at all. If Hank’s very expensive therapy was paid for with drug money, he could be held liable as well. Now if he were to convict Walt, he now will be on the defense when prosecutors inevitably come after him. It also serves to lend more credibility to Walt’s story since there was an actual drug cash exchange to Hank’s benefit.
