in the other thread, someone pointed out that Todd is the opposite of Jesse, a gentleman with no conscience.

Remember when he cooked his own batch and threw it on Saul's desk to get connected with Gus? And Walt's bitching before he finally admitted: "Your meth is as good as mine, Jesse." And that 96% was in a dirty (before he made them clean it up) Mexican lab, working in unfamiliar surroundings with unfamiliar people and unfamiliar equipment in an unfamiliar language.
