I think he ends up being the Danny that owns the Lazer Tag place. His name is Daniel.

I wish your theories would be as simple and neat as this one is.

The complexity of any theory that eventually is proven true is entirely up to the writers of the show.

Wanted to get people's thoughts:

Im starting to think the pharmacist guy is kind of the predecessor to Walt for Mike. Middle aged, kinda nerdy, white collar guy who is obviously in over his head, and doesn't really like to take Mike's seasoned advice.

Walt was obviously the more dangerous of the two, being that he knew his time on earth was borrowed and nothing left to lose. But I wouldn't be surprised if the pharmacy guy causes some real trouble for Mike in the end, and might end up dead himself. Would add to and help explain Mike's obvious distrust of Walt throughout Breaking Bad.

Interesting theory, but I don't really see how the bald guy would play into anything down the road. After Nacho gets done with Hector, what use will Nacho or anyone else have for bald head dude?

I don't think he plays a part or ties in to anything down the road. Nothing like that. I just think his story echoes Walt's in a lot ways.

And it's a chance for the audience to get an outside perspective at a character like that. With Walt, we obviously followed his story and his actions were easier to accept as such. But when you have a similar character, the bald pharma guy, who you aren't invested in like Walt you get a clearer sense that they are in over their head and really shouldn't be doing this.

So no, I don't have some complex theory that he's anything other than what he's shown to be, but I am starting to think Vince Gilligan may be intentionally echoing Walt through him from a different perspective.

So after watching it. You think Jimmy is going to scam chuck out of his buy-out and/or insurance?

---

From watching the clips it looks like the whole insurance angle is going to be a plot device to cause more issue between Howard/Chuck vs. Jimmy/Kim.

It shows Howard telling Chuck they have an issue. It also shows Kim telling Howard that she was just defending her client.

Kinda need to move past this IMO. The Chuck angle is played out.

Totally agree.

So the newest episode of BCS, "Slip", was accidentally aired in Spain this week. The episode can be found with some searching and it's in English with Spanish subtitles.
