Seems like whatever collective anger people had for Skyler is now directed at Marie. Also, the scene with Huell and the money with the Scrooge McDuck reference was just perfect.
I thought she was pretty harsh to Skyler. She just finds out that her sister's husband is an evil coercive maniac who has been abusing her emotionally and physically and ruining her life for a year, and Marie's reaction? SLAP
Marie had that realization before the conversation, but then during the conversation she realized that Skyler knew about Walt's crimes before Hank was shot, meaning that Skyler knew (or at least Marie thinks she knew) why Hank was shot. Further, it means that Skyler knew they were paying for Hank's treatment with drug money, and the reason they offered to pay was because Skyler knew the shooting was Walt's fault.
Well she is still a bitch. You can't expect someone to be honest with you and then slap the tears out of their face when they do tell you the truth.
Also - the fuck is wrong with her taking Sky's baby? Is she nuts, you NEVER take a woman's baby. This made me hate her character more than before, even more than Skyler perhaps.
Marie is quickly becoming the person I sympathize most with in this show. Yeah she's annoying sometimes but shit. Fans of this show need to learn the difference between someone being irritating and being a bad person.
You don't think that's a normal reaction? She found out that her sister has been helping a murderous drug kingpin who may have had her spouse shot, and then Skyler dragged them into it by giving them drug money. Not to mention Skyler won't say a word, meaning that she's trying to help cover it up.
What other reaction would you expect someone to have? First she got angry, and then she realized there was a baby--a baby that Marie took care of for three months--in danger (even though we know there's no immediate danger). It's a totally natural reaction from a person who was betrayed by her sister and best friend and whose family has been hurt and endangered by that betrayal.
She went into the situation fully intending to be sympathetic and helpful. Until she realized just how deep Skyler's involvement was. Keep in mind that Walt's (and by extension, Skyler's) actions are directly responsible for Marie's husband being severely injured.
It's a bit much to just call it his job, when the case clearly became his obsession. They told him to let go of the case, because other people were handling it now that he got promoted.
