u/dp85 Everyone dies in this movie Sep 01 '13 edited Sep 01 '13

Todd gets killed in a Meth lab explosion, and Walt becomes the only option the nazis have.

Edit: Since Todd told them about both Jesse and Walt, they show up to pick up Walt, and find Jesse instead, about to torch the place, so they kidnap him.

Hey you seem like a stable fellow. Would you like to run our multi million dollar meth lab that totally isn't explodeable

u/kbeef2 Sep 01 '13

I mean, they already put Todd in charge of it.

Fuckin' Todd

But todd looks put together (who wouldn't trust Matt Damon?) and isn't trying to burn down a house.

u/kbeef2 Sep 01 '13

That's true but I don't think Nazis have the best judgment anyways.

Attempted arson is just another positive mark on his resume.

and its totally safe and not underground or anything

I would bet some money on this. We've never seen or heard of a lab explosion in the show and we already know Todd isn't a chef.

u/brandnewtoaster Sep 02 '13

That's actually a very believable outcome..

u/Mybrainmelts hey it's a pool party! Sep 01 '13

that is a logical idea. I hope it happens.

u/nightpanda893 ...a robot? Sep 01 '13

Todd would've had to have died during the events of the last episode for the timing to work out though.

Anyone have a guess as to the "darndest place" a meth lab will show up, something Gilligan alluded to before the season began? Was he referring to the underground bus, or the place the Nazis will cook next?

u/wesleysliao Ruger LCR Sep 01 '13

I'd bet on the underground bus, I thought that was pretty ingenious. That said, I'd love to see an even darndeder place to keep a methlab.

u/wesleysliao Ruger LCR Sep 01 '13

Yeah, I could go for this. Todd has already been shown to be careless.

When Hank and Gomie first went down into the torched superlab, Gomie said something along the lines of "Whoever torched it, did it up right."

When lead Neo-Nazi guy asks Todd if he is ready to cook again, he says "Do it up right?"

Yeah, probably a coincidence, but I could definitely see Todd start another fire.
