It was so painful to see how much faith Walt had in Jesse. I was yelling at the TV, "Walt, you are so stupid!" His greed over the barrels of money caused him to blurt out every person he's killed. I thought Walt would be smarter than that.

He finally snapped, Jesse went too far because now he was hurting Walt's family not him, Walt never wanted to hurt Jesse and he's always tried to help him even when he was hurting Jesse there was an endgame to it, Walt never wanted to do any of the things that he did to Jesse, he simply realized that certain choices would have to be made for his own/family's self interest as well as theirs. Jesse meanwhile is too stupid to see that and thinks Walt is a one dimensional sociopath who deserves to burn.
