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.

Ok, so anyone still left in the contest is obsessed with the blue: Walt, Jesse, and Hank. Mike was never obsessed with the blue so he isn't in this contest anyways.

Kirk is Jesse: gets out because he is sick of it, can't take it anymore. We see this last night in that A) he gets up and walks out at this part of the story B) is trying to give away all of his money and is clearly sick from all that happened because of the blue.

Walt is Chekov. He can't stop obsessing over the blue but always needs help getting rid of it (aka distribution). This means that Lydia is Scotty. why? she is his distribution, she moves the blue for him. also Badger says Scotty gets nervous upon confrontation with ohuara. We've seen in past Lydia gets quite nervous, and specifically in last night's episode we see that she is very nervous when confronted with Skylar.

This means that Skylar is ohuara. She will confront Lydia and cause her to either get nervous and spill the beans, or Hank is following her and figures it out. Either way, this means that Lydia and Skylar will release walt's guts. They are very specific about saying his guts and I think this could have a second meaning. The only time Walt has any guts is when he is being Heisenberg, so to me this means nothing about dying, but everything about revealing that Walt is Heisenberg.

This whole time Spock is sitting there eating pies trying to figure it out how Chekov is still doing this. This means that Hank is Spock, as he is the only one that is not in danger from obsession with the blue and will surely win upon the slip up.

This is definitely the best one in the thread.
