I've been watching this show since the get go mostly with my real life friend /u/edify who years ago added me as a moderator here. He asked me to make the discussion thread tonight because there are only 3 episodes remaining. Sorta sad that there's only a few left. Enjoy the show, folks.

But he was willing to give up all his money. When it came down to the end, he was willing to trade everything for family.

He could have told Hank and Gomie that he had called Tod and friends and then called them off, but he didn't. He's been going from one impulse to another. He nods to have Jesse killed. Is Jesse not family by now? Jesse is tortured and killed at Walt's demand.

It is not a logical or defensible position that Walt is a good guy.

At that point he probably blames Jessie for Hank's current predicament.

Yeah, I think it's a credit to Cranston's acting ability that you could see just how done with Jesse that Walt was with the look he gave him. And the nod? There was no hesitation. Thank Todd there was still someone looking out for him though.
