And that was set up very early as a way for him to rebel against/reject his father, if only in a symbolic way - the expansion of its use, more or less, corresponds with Walt's transformation to Heisenberg - if Walt, Jr. had continued to be called that, logically, he would be Heisenberg, Jr. - this gave him an out before it was even needed.

He did get better with his LCR, but, let's face it, going to war is not exactly in Walt's wheelhouse - from a trigger pulling standpoint. Either it will be used in an unconventional way (as you suggest) or it is for a team he's assembled.


In the diner restroom scene where Walt pays the guy for the M60, he asks if there are instructions for the rifle, the other guy says get them off the internet. This seems to imply Walt is going to use it himself.

It's a fools errand then (or VG goes completely Rambo-level unrealistic, which is unlikely).

A 52-year old man with an M60 and instructions off the internet, even with a few hundred rounds of ammo for practice isn't going to do well against a well armed, professional crew of 6 or more neo-Nazis.

He would have a firepower advantage for a couple of seconds. I'm brainstorming, if he somehow staged an ambush...maybe... heck - it's just crazy enough to work.

(I would have tried to get a M249 SAW, especially without an AG, but that's just me.)

I'm making my way throught the thrad now.

Again, I'm expecting something that nobody is really thinking about. Something like Jesse teaming back up with Walt. His hatred for Walter is probably not as bad as before after the Nazis killed Andrea and are forcing him to cook. He might be able to get over it if it means killing the Nazis. It would be crazy if they reunite, and then Jesse accidentally kills Walter during a shootout or something.

It's been mentioned several times as a possibility - personally, I don't know if Walt is going back to free him or kill him. I don't know if, once the Nazis are dead that Walt will have it in him to kill Jesse. Once freed, and Todd dead, I don't know if Jesse will have it in him to kill Walt, either. They've been through a lot, together - they've literally killed for each other - this is as close a non-sexual, non-blood relationship can be - akin to that of soldiers in combat (or a father and adopted son) - a very close, but tumultuous one.

Walt feels betrayed by Jesse, Jesse feels betrayed by Walt, but that could be assuaged by the common effort of killing Jack and company.

3. How do you think he ties up the Lydia/Czech situation?


In the end I think Lydia is the new kingpin though I'd prefer she eat a bullet. The problem with that, though, is who will her cook be? Todd - maybe but I think Jesse kills him somehow. Certainly not Jesse or Walt. So I'll have to disagree with myself since Lydia can't do it without a cook.

Why has no one made a gif of the principal strutting her short skirt out of the office yet?

I didn't catch every page of this thread, so I'm not sure if anyone else thought of it, but I noticed that for the second time Lydia mentioned Stevia when getting her tea. I wonder if she is the one who winds up getting the ricin.

I also believe that the person who gets the ricin is not going to be the person it was intended for.
