How badass was that shootout at the processing plant, with Gus walking right into the hail of bullets?

That was REALLY badass.

I really hate it when Walt talks down to Jesse.  I'm bothered that he doesn't remember that Jesse killed Gale for him.

Totally, but that made Pinkman's beatdown of him that much more satisfying.

They were going to kill Jesse too. He killed Gale for both of them. Walt killed two people for Jesse last season. Sure they were guilty while Gale had really done nothing wrong but he still basically saved Jesse's life.
Jesse's life never would have been in danger and they wouldn't have had to kill Gale if Walt had just made the ricin when Jesse asked.

So are you guys thinking what I'm thinking in regards to Skylar's subplot?  That she's going to front Ted the money he owes the IRS, then he repays her, thus laundering about 800 grand through Beneke's company?  How is she going to explain that money?  Maybe cook the books so it looks like the money came from within the company?  But then the money never comes back to her.

Yes, and I sense when Walt learns of it, it will be the end of Ted, literally.

Gus in real life would scare the crap out of me.

I just KNOW that Gus is not going to give in to the cartels.....

I hope Walt counters by going to the cartels w/ his formula and cannot picture any other scenario where that doesn't play out.

That WOULD make sense and I can see how the Walt/Jesse/Cartel storyline would play out next year....... but that only means we are wrong.

And yeah, Ted is dead man walking.

I want to say that Walt would never be so brazen as to murder someone not involved with the drug trade, who he has clear and documented motive for murdering (Skylar's affair with Ted and Walt's outburst at Ted's office are well known), but after killing Gail, he crossed the moral event horizon.  I can see Walt slipping Ted some ricin just for revenge.

Bob

I dont see Walt doing the killing, but someone like Mike or the Cartels to protect their interest (Walt not going to jail).

I don't see any reason for the cartels or Mike to get involved in Walt's petty personal dispute.  Why would they care if the CEO of some failing business used Walt's money to pay the IRS?

I am guessing because they may snoop into HOW an unemployed teacher had all that money.

You know, someone really needs to die from the ricin at some point in the series. Man, we're going on three seasons!

Wonder if they are saving that for the series final or it is just a tease by now.

Wait, the gun Sterling gives Cyril? In that case, that isn't good news for Wendy! Archer's back tonight, yes!!

Well played, Mr. Gilligan. Well played.  :D

So who thought the cartel would be erased by this point in the series? Unreal, and the coolest thing I'll see in any medium this year. That was incredible watching that final act to "Salud" unfold.

And not only did Walt Jr. choose breakfast over lunch but also, driving. Fuck, does he like breakfast!

A PT Cruiser?  Man!  What is Skyler's problem?

Thrifty

I kinda fell asleep in the middle, so I only saw the beginning and end, and I'm not sure what was real and what was a dream.  Did Skylar actually tell Ted that she provided the money?

Actually I have it recorded on DVR, and if my roommate ever leaves the house for an hour, I can watch it.

Bob

Curious to see how Jesse handles (by himself!) getting Mike and Gus out of Mexico safely.   I have a strange feeling he will be calling Mr. White.
