Amazing episode. It's going to be a long week waiting to see what happens next week.

Gus is one true badass. His stares and then going out into the middle of nowhere and telling the twins to basically shut the frick up and listen to his orders..

Did anyone else notice the look of remorse on Saul Goodman's face after his secretary made the bogus phone call to Hank about his wife? That was the first time I'd ever seen him seem even somewhat uneasy with his career path.

I definitely got the impression Gale was looking to learn the Heisenberg formula so that one day Walt could be phased out. I was a little disappointed they chose that actor though, because it seems like he's been in so many shows (The Wire, Damages) that it will be tough not to think of him as an actor.

What a badass episode.

I dont think Hank gets killed off. If anyone goes it is probably the cousins. Question is what do they do with Jessie now? Does he find a way to keep cooking, join forces with Walt(highly unlikely), etc etc.

When the phone call came to Hank I did not see Saul being behind it. What a great episode!

Me either. The voice on the phone sounded like Skyler, so I thought maybe it was her. Regardles, Hank got played. My question now is could the operator of the junk yard be in trouble for obstruction/tampering with evidence?

I don't think so. He technically never saw what was inside, and was merely instructed to crush the RV. Plus, that guy seemed to know his law

I guess you're right, and Hank was unable to get a warrant to search the vehicle. I'm sure there's no record of the RV ever being at the wrecking yard, so the junkyard lawyer can simply say "what RV?"

Nothing Hank could can do to him. He never verified anything illegal in the RV.

I am a little skeptical of Hank leaving so fast. He could have called another car to the lot and then left with them watching the RV. Would have only taken a few minutes at most. That was a weak point to me.

I am not sure how the heck Hank and Wifey don't end up dead meat next week.

i thought hank was going to stroke out in the hospital at the end, because earlier in the episode, it seemed to show him eating fries and they made a point to zoom down in on the burger and fries

seemed like foreshadowing

Greatness.Like someone said,Gus is a Bad Mutha to change the Murder Twins Minds and give up Hank to them.

Had to laugh at the Boy doing the River Dance after a Hit."My Brain feels like it's boiling in Anthrax".

Hank has been zoned in on this case. I still think it would have taken mere minutes to call in another car to the lot.

I didn't say it was impossible, I just felt it was weak.

Add to the fact the caller ID would not have shown a police department on it, Hank should have been a touch suspicious. The caller ID would have just said Cell Phone and he would not be getting an emergency call from a cell phone.

Glad to see them getting Jesse's idiot friends back in play. They frustate you but they bring humor too.

Jesse may be clean but his brain just doesn't work well anymore. Maybe it never did!

He has become nothing but a liabliity to anyone. Walt is going to have a tough time keeping Gus from killing him.I think he is going to disappear by the end of the season.

True story. My parents got a call one time from a gentlemen who turned out to be mentally ill. He told them that I had been in an accident and was clinging to life in the hospital. They both lost their minds and were preparing to drive to BR when I called my mother on an unrelated matter. After the fact, there were a dozen ways they could have figured out the call was not legit, but they didn't think of any of that in the panic that ensues when you get news like that.

cliffs notes: I totally bought the way Hank fled.

I do think all the panic attacks and shortness of breath could be pointing to some type of cardiac event for Hank.

But as last season proved, things may point one way and end up something entirely different.

Great season so far.

Looking forward, after the cousins get done with what they are going to do, i.e. killing Hank or Walt, do they then go away from the show? Easy alternative would be to have them killed but that seems unlikely.

There has been no character development of them however if you look at episode 7 preview it does flashback to their childhood.

just curious to your thoughts?

I'm glad they finally spoke up last night. It was getting to be a little ridiculous that they never said anything.

I think Hank's bum heart is a red herring and I do not think he'll die of a heart attack and I honestly don't think he's going to die at all. I could see him getting badly injured but not dying.

I could see him actually leaving the DEA. His career is, after all, dead because of his refusal to go to El Paso.
