re: Breaking Bad S5E14 9/15 "Ozymandias"

I just don't see Walt saving Jesse

but freakout if Jesse brought a small bag of weed?

It was more an issue of Jesse being stoned. Saul didn't want him getting baked on the curb.

quote:

---

Walt concocts a way to save Jesse

---

nope.

jesse couldn't forgive him already because of brock (no change of mind on torching the house..hank just arrived before he lit the match) and now that he knows about jane, he will kill walt with his own hands if ever given the opportunity.

I just want to see Jesse rage murder Todd, while Todd just stares off into the distant horizon and grins as Jesse bashes his head

quote:

I think ultimately Walt concocts a way to save Jesse and his family by sacrificing himself.

you and me both brotha.

it is for him and lydia, it makes perfect sense.

I am not so sure Walt buys it in the end. One of my theories, for the last two years, has been that Walt will lose his family and everyone he loves but will ultimately become the next Gus. The end will show his face as he finally realizes what he has sacrificed to become the king.

Walt has watched himself become the one thing he really thought he was incapable of becoming. The bad guy. He really thought in the beginning that he could just go into this type of business and innocently make some money for family and then get out. The drug business always changes people. As for Jesse. I think Walt has to be through with him at this point which is why he told him about watching his Gf choke to death. He finally realizes you can only help a dumb arse so much. And Jesse is the ultimate dumb arse!

I just wish Walt would think sometimes before he says shite. Hated him telling those lowlifes the 80 mil was right there. It's like Hank told him before he was killed. "Your smartest person I know, but you're so stupid if you think he's gonna let me live".

quote:

---

The guy is fricked up beyond redemption.

---

I do agree with this. He did some fricked up shite, and there's no coming back from that.

quote:

---

But, intentionally or not, he put Hank in that position.

---

I guess I see what you're saying, but Hank did that to himself also. If he would have told everyone at the DEA office what's up, he would have never been in that position. He was afraid he would lose everything though. Also, Jesse didn't help matters either. They were basically both there to get Walt for revenge. I know Walt did some fricked up stuff, but they are no saints either.

quote:

---

Hank at least had principles.

---

I think had is the correct word here. We all talk about Walt's faults, so let's not leave out Hank's. Hank was basically willing to let Walt kill Jesse when they were supposed to meet in that public place when Jesse was wearing a wire. He said as much.

quote:

---

Walt gives up Pinkman like the bitch Walt is to save his own arse.

---

This isn't true either. Walt was free to go. He pointed out Jesse because he was being spiteful and wanted Jesse to get hurt. It wasn't because they were about to kill Walt.

quote:

---

She may be a schmuck, but, really, she just wanted a regular life and to protect her kids

---

Yeah, but she may have went about it the wrong way. If what you want is a regular life and to protect the kids then just leave. She knew Walt was basically gone. Flynn didn't help matters when he called the police. I don't think Skylar would have done that, but I could be wrong.

Walt was crushed when Jr turned on him to protect his Mom. He had a look of I just didn't expect that. Jr was everything to him. He's imo in I really don't give a frick mode right now where he's capable of about anything.
