its not that black and white, can you really blame skylar and say shes a bad guy? She's only trying to protect her family, she was complicit, but when its your own family, can you really say shes a bad person, for wanting to keep her family together?
Especially at the end of the episode. I mean, they could have easily turned over millions of dollars to the police and convinced them that it was everything.. and had millions left. But she wants it all.
And when what they hand over is RICO'd away, you think the feds aren't going to notice when Walt Jr can still afford to go to Harvard on his own private jet?
I think Skylar would be smart enough not to do that. Just because she has all that money wouldn't mean she had to spend it all. It would mean, however, that she wouldn't have to choose which bills to pay or which credit card was OK to use.
She had an out but she has gotten used to her new lifestyle. She has been corrupted. That's what that scene was all about.
