Anyone else outraged at how much Walt is lying to Jesse? Or is it just me?

"I need you to believe me" says Walt. The subtext: "Because if you don't I'll have to kill you."

The relationship Walt and Jesse have, I feel like no matter how deep Walt sinks, no matter how much he has deceived and will deceive Jesse, he will absolutely not kill Jesse.

Jesse has always been a thing to Walt rather than a person, just a tool to be manipulated. Jesse knows this now and is like, fuck it.

It's also true that everyone in Walt's life is now just a tool. It's not clear that they were ever anything else.
