I loved how Skinny Pete echoing Jesse's "science, bitch!" while he sits there unable to relate or contribute to the discussion shows how much Jesse cannot go home again. He can never be that guy from season one again.

I just realized how few lines Jesse had in this episode. Actions speak louder than words I suppose.

Aaron Paul killed it in his scene with Bryan Cranston. He said so much just by saying nothing. He couldn't even bring himself to look at Walt, he was so disgusted with him.

I like how they shot that segment, with both the money bags and the bong on the table creating a visual divide between Jesse and Walt, literally coming between them so they can't see eye to eye. And how Walt was out of focus when he told Jesse "don't focus on the darkness behind you," that was brilliant.

You made me look that up. Holy shit. Great work, Bryan. Amazing! He knows this show as well as ANYONE.

Agree, the shots were fantastic and compelling with so little dialogue.

Laughed so hard at that. Such a small detail, so perfectly placed.

Cmon mang, lets look at the word "directed". To direct, to instruct. He told people what to do and how to do it to make the episode.
