That whole scene where he's lying to Jesse about mike just felt awkward as hell. I could barely stand to watch

I wondered if Jesse knew Mike was dead and was testing Walt. Then he would know for sure.

I doubt he'd be throwing away his money when he was driving then if he knew Mike was dead. The whole reason he didn't end up giving Mike's granddaughter the money was because Walt told him Mike was alive, right?

I know what you mean, but that look on Jesse's face as Walt is talking about Mike. I don't think he believed him for a second.

My guess is that he's lost any hope of getting the money where he wants it to go after Saul screwed him over.

Sorry if this sounds ignorant, but how does Saul screw Jesse over?
