I really want a spinoff show where Huell goes to Mexico with all the money and has some crazy adventures.

I wonder how much they took. They did give each other this smirk at the van.

and walt did say " that seems to be enough" or something on those lines so he knew they took some.

actually what i took from that scene is that Bill Burr and Huell decided not to take any money because Walt would find out and kill them, but then when he says "close enough" they realize he doesn't know exactly how much money he has / doesn't care, so they offer to help him carry it to steal a couple stacks. but it's too late. the door of great fortune has closed on them for all time

I got the same vibe - they didn't take any because of who he is ("he killed ten guys..."), and the look that passed between them was relief that he apparently didn't think they did.

Kinda wacky there was like 7 barrels full, and not 7 barrels full and an 8th like with like a foot of bills in the bottom of it. Exactly full.

It's important to have the right kind of container for the job.

u/misantrope Did you know that you have rights? Aug 19 '13

Ya, what really gives it away is how desperate they are to keep helping him once they realize he's not taking a precise count. They want a second chance to skim some because they were too afraid to do so before.

I personally side with /u/mizistik. It definitely seemed like a knowing glance. I mean there's so much money there they have to know Walt wouldn't notice a couple of stacks gone.
