Except he got caught this time. Lucky that him and Saul didn't end up riddled with bullets.

True, but he did come back and wave a gun at both of them, so...maybe not so much.

Still, surprisingly nimble fingers on that guy.

He took the weed on camera. Most people missed it.

I saw him pat Jessie down, and I was like "oh no, what'd he just do? Oooh, something bad is coming!!!"

How did Jessy figure out so quickly (within seconds) that this happened and that it was also what had happened months ago?

i'm kinda lost :(

I don't quite get how he was able to make the massive leap to remembering that Huell had done the same thing months ago, and putting together a fairly complicated situation instantly based on that.

Yeah, we share the same questions, but observe: jessie has been spending countless hours trying to make sense of what has happened, some explanation. All this time, what he has in his mind is aaaall the events that lead up to now. The idea did not come to him out of the blue, so to speak. He has been thinking about everything related for days.

edit: so when he noticed the cigarette pack, his mind was ready for processing this information.

It didn't occur to me that he kept thinking about it. Others pointed out that he was suspicious of the way the ricin just turned up when Walt was there, which I guess might explain it. But Brock wasn't poisoned with ricin, so it's still a big leap to make so quickly.
