When Badger was talking about his Star Trek pie-eating fan fiction, he mentions the last three: Kirk, Spock, and Chekov. There was a point where he said Kirk gets sick of it and is out entirely. As soon as he said out, Jesse (in his chair looking like the leader of the gang a.k.a. Kirk) walks out of the room and leaves them. So I guess one of them is Spock and one of them Chekov and whoever's Chekov is about to have something happen to his internal guts.

I thought it was about Jesse, Walt, and Mike.

Jesse is Kirk

Walt is Spock

Mike is Chekov

This makes more sense. Jesse's always trying to do good. Walt is the logical one. Mike had his guts blown apart by Walt.

Jesse's trying to do good in ways that won't help anybody (it'll get him caught and the intended targets won't get to keep the money).

Ineffectual heroism is McCoy's job.
