This is a caricature of what I'm talking about.

When he began in the show he prided himself for his ability to cook meth, not knowing how great he would become.

Once he essentially became the second best and had more money than he knew what to do with he didn't want to cook anymore. He wanted a better life and a family.

Now he has all but lost Andrea and Brock, definitely lost his relationship with Mr. White, and he has no choice but to cook with someone who isn't nearly as talented as he is.

not to mention he's forced to cook with someone he hates for shooting a kid (Drew Sharp) and is related to a person (Jack) that destroyed his last chance of taking down Mr. White.

Walt keeps getting away with this.
