He doesn't care. It goes to show you how the lust for power has totally clouded his judgment on his own reality. He thinks he can do anything he damn well pleases, just because he killed Jesse James.

The one thing more annoying than skylar is how often all you figs complain about her.
Given the circumstances, she is acting pretty much how you would expect a suburbanite housewife to act.
This. How else would you expect her to act once she found out her husband is a psychotic, lying, amoral, homicidal, meth maker. She's also upset with herself for not getting the Hell out when she had the chance.

She actually "broke bad" when she went to the Four Corners and pulled the coin back into New Mexico.

I don't think she knew what she was getting herself in to. She realized the magnitude of the situation when when saw Ted all trussed-up in the hospital. She's come unglued.

So what's Skyler's best play? I say she needs to go back to her divorce lawyer, get a consult with a criminal defense lawyer 
, and offer up Walt on a silver platter in exchange for a reduced sentence. Otherwise, she's left to hope that Walt's cancer kills him before someone else does the job, possibly wiping out her whole family in the process, or he gets caught, which has to be looking very unlikely from her point of view. If she just keeps going along, there has to be a 99.9% chance it blows up in her face anyway. This is a very interesting situation due to her own criminal involvement and the ripple effects of action and inaction. It could push anyone over the edge.

No way. Mike did a background check on all the pest control guys. Mike doesn't frick up.

Surprised nobody has mentioned that from the previews at the end of the show, Heisenberg is coming back in the next episode & the head shaving has to be a prelude to a wild scene in the making!
Of course, Walt picked that name in reference to Werner Heisenberg, the German theoretical physicist, who by the way died of cancer.

Totally different point. I'm also surprised nobody has brought up what they are doing - cooking the way they are - is basically going to kill the people living in the houses. It should be everybody's major worry, with so many meth houses these days, that you make sure you don't live in one of these cook houses.
Again, ironically, the dangers that go along with meth houses include exposure to cancer causing chemicals that can saturate walls, carpets and other building materials as well as all contents. Lead and mercury are common byproducts. Obviously, children are at high risk, as well as adults, to serious, serious health issues.
Walt has to know this, if anyone, and you'd think even Jesse should have known this, too, as well as Mike. I guess they don't care, but that is really kind of sick, too.

I thought the tent they put up kept the byproducts off the interior of the home.
Posted on 7/30/12 at 7:07 pm to LarryDavid
They used that plastic tent to keep the chemicals from effecting the house.
Posted on 7/30/12 at 7:09 pm to rondo
Yeah. No way they would be so stupid as to allow their meth to kill the occupants of the homes.
Posted on 7/30/12 at 7:16 pm to Nonetheless
the tent doesn't really help very much, shite is everywhere, the floor there, all around, they're going to take it down anyway
really, you think it's just fine, that much meth, cooking in a house with a tent, you may want to do a little research on that

They hooked a huge vacuum up to blow all the vapors outside.I thought that took care of it.
Posted on 7/30/12 at 7:26 pm to tidalmouse
I saw it, the "blower", but on that scale, though, shite is everywhere, no matter what they did to try and get it out, you saw the vapors inside as they hooked up the hose, there's more than that. And, it was coming out from inside the house somewhere, too.

No, they were cooking on a much larger scale in Gus's lab and didn't contaminate their lab or the surrounding environment. With care it's not that big a deal. Meth heads tend not to be careful which is the main reason for problems at meth labs. And the cops love to make it sound more dangerous than it is in reality.

Between the blower, the tent, and the fact that we're talking about one cook I think maybe you're a little zealous in that proclamation. I'm no chemist (and maybe you are and can prove me wrong!), but we have to be talking about trace amounts of chemicals here. The risk has to be negligible.
And if not, well, if Walt will poison an 8-year-old to achieve his ends, I'm not surprised to see him do this.

I'll just leave it and say I wouldn't want to live there, or have it done in my home, and side with everybody with the meth cooks
Besides, who cares, right, Heisenberg is coming back in the next episode & the head shaving has to be a prelude to a wild scene in the making!

I'm pretty certain that the tent is sealed...nothing was getting out of it.
Notice they left it behind too....seemed to me it was so the fumigators could break it down appropriately

Jessie serves as the antithesis to Walt. Through the last year Jessie, initially the lost soul, has found his soul through, initially, selfish intentions.
Walt, the one originally with the soul and with selfless intentions, has lost his soul.
The difference is in their fatal flaws. Walt's is pride which consumes. Jesse's is the want of purpose and acceptance, showing itself through loyalty. It has caused him to do stupid things in the past, but the nature of the flaw doesn't consume. In fact, it can be positive if the person senses they have accomplished something and have been accepted.
The result: Jesse is now good and Walt is now evil.
