You knew Jesse was going to be forced to cook. As usual, Jesse fricked his own self up. Had he just taken the $5mm and shut the frick up, everyone would be cool. Bitch.

There was no other way this could end. Jr had to find out. Marie and Skyler would never forgive Walt for Hank's death.

For a split second I thought Walt really lost it on that phone call, but then I quickly realized he is taking care of his family and getting Skyler out of trouble. Heisenberg is going to wreck shite though.

Can the last 2 episodes come close to this one?

This may have already been mentioned but, as far as Walt leaving Skylar and Breakfast with nothing once the police seize everything, I'm pretty sure Hank would have a pretty large life insurance policy. With Walts phone call at the end there, I'm sure Marie will forgive Skylar and take her and the kids in.

When do we see the crane

ETA: I watched online and didn't get to examine the shot, but anyone see anything significant in the shot of the game of chess at the end... Obviously black vs white and the king piece. Didn't look like it was moving into checkmate or anything, but like I said, was too fast for me and watched online.

Breakfast would say "jackshit." That seems to be his catch phrase.

I hope breakfast ends up deep dicking Lydia while Todd cries and beats off in the corner

Walt's going to move east and re-establish his identify with a nag named Lois and four boys named Dewey, Malcolm, Reese, and Francis.

how many loose ends are there?

- skylar/walt tape implicating hank
- marie knowing skylar was a part of it
- walt jr knowing skylar was a part of it
- saul, nazis, jesse, lydia
- recording of walt's call admitting to everything
- video of jesse's confession

the first 3could hurt skylar

the last one could result in the nazis going after walt's family maybe?

walt's confession is meaningless at this point since the police have his phone call to skylar

who else knows?

Of course it was out of anger, but he's been angry a lot in this series. He's still never done anything that evil on a personal level.

He did it because he blamed Jesse for Hank's death. "Walt" was slipping away from the moment of Hank's death. He tried clinging to his family, but in the end he gave up on "Walt." He's dead.

Where's the moment he gave up on Walt then? When he got in the van? Because that was definitely "Walt" that made the call to Skylar and left Holly at the Fire Dept.

Plus 9 or so months from now, he's still putting bacon on his breakfast at the diner which seems awfully "Walty".
