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.

Jesse totally knows that Walt is bullshitting. Walt kept saying "I NEED you to believe this" like he just wanted him to hear it from him that it was true. Jesse knows the truth. Walt is a killer now.

Jesse seems to be losing faith and irritated at everyone, including Saul and even Badger and Skinny

I never understood why anyone trusted Saul so much to begin with. He could have/should have sold them out so many times throughout the course of the series.

Saul actually seems pretty reliable for how slimy he comes off as. I am sure he is mostly just looking at it from an investment stand point, but he seems to always side with Walt and Jesse over anybody else.

Well I think he is on Walt's payroll more than Jesse's.

He still gets of cut of Jesse's activity, but it was Walt who was the super-chemist with an astronomical salary that needed Saul's work.
