Skinny Pete can sure tickle the ivory. Didn't expect that.

He always did seem less of an inherent idiot than Badger, but that was surprising.

One of the interesting tidbits from this episode is when marie tries to prepare for walts birthday. That means from season 1 ep1 to season 5 ep3 is about year in time.

---

Two years. Remember he was having his 50th birthday party. He's soon turning 52.

Does anybody think that Marie blabs to Hank about Skyler's affair with Ted? Will Hank get curious and speak with Ted? Hank's a keen investigator. He knows something's up with Walt and may be curious to find out if Ted is somehow involved. Do y'all think Brock recognized Walt? Walt is saving the ricin tablet for somebody. Will it be Mike or Skyler? Walt wants Mike out of the picture, and, in his current state-of-mind, may start to view Skyler as a liability because she's gone crazy; he's worried she'll spill the beans to Hank. This would be the true irony of the show: he kills the people he initially wanted to help. Does Walt go out in a blaze of glory? He didn't buy that M-60 for deer hunting.

Charles Baker was originally a music major at UT-Arlington

I've read he's quite the musician and singer. You wouldn't guess this by looking at Skinny Pete. Badger was having a hard time catching some flicks on that double-necked B.C. Rich guitar.

Someone needs to explain that last scene where Walt said Victor flew too close to the sun when tried to make a batch.

---

Apparently Victor went behind Gus's back and did some freelance meth cooking to earn some cash on the side.

quote:

Jesse, to me, looked shocked about what he said

---

Because Walt is talking about killing Mike. Jesse also knows that Walt's wheels have come off the track and he has gone insane with power.

I think Walt is talking about when he was making the batch in the Box Cutter episode. Bragging that he knew exactly how to cook like Walt did.

Incorrect. Even in the episode Marie said it had almost been a year since Walt was diagnosed.

---

You're right. I now remember Marie saying this.

---

I think Walt is talking about when he was making the batch in the Box Cutter episode.

I think he is too. Walt said he thought Victor was taking too many liberties,with Gus's operation and that that was why Gus killed him.

Now that Walt considers the operation to be his he is inferring to Jessie that Mike is taking similar liberties with his & Jessie's money and he is "flying too close to the sun" and needs to be taken out. Jessie gets the not so subtle inference and is not happy about it. Showdown coming soon.

I think Gus killed Victor because he was sloppy and was seen at Gale's apartment after the murder. I still believe he was sending a message to Walt.

Something is up with that Friday Night Lights kid. That's more than just a cameo. He's gonna screw them somehow I'm guessing.

---

Yep, with this show everything happens for a reason. Once he walked up to the two of them and mentioned the nanny cam, you knew his character would have an implication somewhere down the line.

quote:

Perhaps he's an undercover APD officer.

:mindblown:

that'd be some shite...it's possible, but it's not like Landry Clarke is such an A-list actor that his appearance has to mean something deep.
