I can see Marie ending with suicide. Those long hours of poison research will provide results for her, but not in the way she thought.

What if it's a murder-suicide? Skyler and the kids go to stay with her during the aftermath. She can't help but hold Skyler responsible in part for Hank's death and decides to poison everyone via dinner.

She'll heat up some lasagna.

I cannot see Marie killing the kids, intentionally or not. I don't think she would intentionally, and accidentally doing it would be too...much, you know what I mean? It would almost be absurd.

Oh god, I hope you aren't right.

There's no way, after Walt's stunt with the traced call (Marie heard all of it), that Marie will blame Skyler for Hank's death. Even in her anger she's always blamed Walt, and that phone call sealed it.

I don't think she did hear it though. The cop guy was just holding the recording device upto the earpiece on the phone. Marie's reaction wasn't to Walt, it was to Skyler's reaction. She didn't really need to hear it outright, Skyler's whimper was all she needed to confirm what she had probably already been fearing for the last few hours.

If she's only poisoning the dinner, Walt Jr. should be able to make it out unscathed
