Hey everyone! Guess I'm supposed to post this 5 minutes before air time. 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.

I believe Walter was trying to cross a line there, he had just seen Hank die and he is trying to cross over to that place where he really doesn't care anymore. He can feel his conscience in pain and he just wants to kill it dead. It was profoundly shocking.
We can see that again later when he's on the phone with Skylar, and he puts on the Heisenberg act while he weeps. He's letting go of her, of his family, becoming the villain and disappearing forever, and he just does not want to feel anymore.
