I never hated Skyar more than when she fricked Ted behind Walt's back and then told him out of spite.


Did she know about Walt's actions at that point? I don't recall.

I'm not sure either. I just remember thinking the punishment doesn't fit the crime.

I was also diehard Team Walt at that time. I didn't see him as the murder he is now. His actions were still justified to me.

Maybe maniac is too harsh, but he is a murderer.

No reason to complain about someone being a thorn in the side of the biggest meth dealer in the Southwestern US.

Mother fricking this. Walt has definitely become the villain, but Skyler is a cockroach taking any stance she can to benefit.

I could see Walt having resigned himself to death and not accepting chemo, but if that were true I don't see how he makes it a year and seems perfectly fine. I think he goes to the doctor in NH and they tell him he's fine, and he has to face living alone for the rest of his life without his family.

She went with Walt in the beginning to try and keep the family together.

How does that make her a cockroach?

She doesn't take any responsibility for anything. She expects Walt to. She cheated on Walt. It was Walts fault. She took money from Walt to pay her lover's IRS debt. She continues to act like a dysfunctional mess but when it's clear there is a threat to her, she wants it snuffed out regardless of moral principles. Pretty roach like behavior.

You missed the point about the cheating. She was trying to get Walt to move out. She was doing anything she could to get him to leave her. She had no interest in Ted other than as a way to get rid of Walt.

I'd hardly call fricking another guy, taking the kids from the house, and acting bat shite crazy in front of everyone trying to keep the family together. She acts on emotion and fear, until she sees an opportunity, then she scurries to capitalize.

She's powerless in regards to Walt, but is willing to adapt and survive. The writers have demonstrated this several times. She's gradually tried to gain the courage to stand up to Walt, but always wilts, waiting for the cancer, then taking his side when she sees benefit to be had. The knife was the latest installment of this, which was why there was plenty of camera work to go with it.

In the next episode she'll refuse to cooperate with the police, after she finds that the baby is safe, or the writers will make a huge deal of her finally getting out from under Walt's shoe.

ETA: I think her cutting Walt, and the fancy slow motion shot to boot, symbolized her finally cutting Walt out of the family. Her and junior stare up, not even recognizing him. However, she only has the courage to do this after talking to Marie and being convinced team Walt is losing now. Last week she was ready to sign Jesse's death warrant.

so that means we are at least 22-23 months out from Walt's 50th.

We are like 16 months out from the 50th birthday.


Can't be. Wasn't Skylar still pregnant at Walt's 50th? They said Holly was 18 months old when the police were giving out her description.

Well if he does A, then B is impossible. He was given $11 million. All he wanted to do was take his family and go. All Sky had to do was go and they all would have been safe.

No, she did it because Walt was responsible for killing her sister's husband.

Just pointing this out, Walt never confessed to killing Hank, he told them they'd never see him again. Granted, for his family and the police, that means he killed them, but he never said he did.

Yeah, but when Skylar confronted him at first and asked if he killed Hank she knew he was hiding something and that's what caused her to grab the knife.

He said "I tried to save him." In regards to Hank
