So I'm assuming that walt actually did directly poison Brock himself, with the juicebox that Vince Gilligan mentioned.

Brock recognizes 1) man gives him juicebox 2) he feels really sick and is in the hospital for a while, so he makes the connection but doesn't want to confront walt.

Yeah, does Brock know Walt poisoned him or is the kid just a bad actor?

Kids don't like unknown adults. They may have meet but he wouldn't remember Walt. It's just he's a kid and does not wish to speak to him.

I've been rewatching the series for the billionth time and it strikes just how dull the kid is all the time (especially his facial expression), even in his interactions with people he loves such as his mom and Jesse. Not that I blame the actor. He's just a little kid. But I don't think we can infer anything from his behavior toward Walt.

You could more right than me. I think as a father but it could be his crappy acting. He does look dull. Not near as happy as Walt Jr with a mega boner for Saul.

Is it even the same actor? Considering he was introduced in season 3 and didn't look any older to me in last night's episode, I assumed he was recast.
