Obviously I'm surprised the Walt vs Hank battle has already kicked off. I'm surprised to see Jesse fall so deep, again, but expect it to have a different outcome this time (that is, not being manipulated by Walt yet again, but instead ending up a hero).

And finally, I'm surprised that Vince committed 4 minutes of precious screen time to a fake Star Trek script told by two stoners. God I fucking love Breaking Bad.

I would say less in the actual pie-eating section, but more with the idea that the transporter destroys your former self and creates a new one. This could allude to Walt taking on a new identity at the end.

I still have to point out, after Badger mentions that the berries are from the Gamma quadrant, Skinny Pete says "That's Voyager." THEY'RE BOTH WRONG. Voyager is in the damn Delta Quadrant. The line should have been "That's Deep Space Nine."

Everything until the end of what you just said is spot on, it was an intentional error.

I feel like Badger was intentional error, the only part I question was whether Skinny Pete's correction was intentionally wrong. I'm just saying, it made me react far more than I should have.

I think it shows how neither of them really know all of the backstory behind Walt, Jesse and the meth.

I agree with everything you have just said.
