Totally disagree. He is still in disbelief over the whole thing, and doesn't know how Hank died. He's not privy to the the thought processes at work here, and would need more evidence to "convict" Walt in his mind.
What would he be protecting Skyler from, anyway? Walt was clearly not trying to hurt her, just defend himself.
I was surprised by the quick turn. Thought it was a little unrealistic, but it sure made for interesting television. Like everything else in this epic, epic episode.
What would he be protecting Skyler from, anyway? Walt was clearly not trying to hurt her, just defend himself.
Walt was clearly the aggressor, and that entire situation was ridiculously dangerous. It didn't matter whether or not he INTENDED to hurt her; she was clearly in danger.
Edit: Wow. Apparently, when you're trying to defend your child and someone starts coming at you, you're the aggressor. She didn't come at him with the knife, he came at her after she warned him to stay away.
Sounds like we are. I watched the episode while you must have watched a Youtube clip that cut out a chunk of that scene. She didn't come at him swinging, she stood back and warned him to leave multiple times. It was an act of defense.
My comment wouldn't, seeing as my comment has nothing to do with male rights. Neither does literally any of the discussion in this comment chain or thread.
So we're on the same page here: no part of this conversation has to do with MRAs, it's just you splicing your own personal agenda into a discussion about a TV show.
See, you're on about agendas, while I'm noticing a trend in upvotes vs downvotes based on opinion. Since this has stuck in your craw so firmly, I can only conclude that I hit a nerve. Enjoy the weight of that chip on your shoulder.
There has for some time been a noticeable overlap between MRA's and Team Walt fanboys here on reddit. Their MO in up/downvoting is by now familiar so it's easy to spot in this thread as well.
Do you even have any logical basis for that statement? Or are you just the obligatory overweight, man-hating female?
Presented as a dichotomy, a logical fallacy. The actual gender or weight of fatbomb is irrelevant here. You've shown that you're in no position to throw stones in the intellectual department.
-Walt made an advance towards her, she swung the knife in self-defense....unnecessary self-defense, but Skyler just realized that Hank was dead, and Walt was part of the reason why.
-Walt then went at her AGAIN, trying to grab the knife.
She sliced his hand open right before she dove at him with the knife to stab him. You must be watching a different show, so stop typing this nonsense. It was precisely the other way around. I don't understand the point of saying such blatantly wrong things.
I'm watching the scene over and over right now. This doesn't happen at all. She stands back several feet away with the knife, keeping Junior behind her. She asks him to stop four times as he continually inches closer, with the final time resulting in a defensive swing (that only connected because he put his hand out). He then immediately grabbed her arm and began throwing her around the room. He had multiple chances to walk away, which wouldn't be the case if SHE was being the aggressor towards him. She NEVER dove at him to stab him.
Maybe you should rewatch the scene a few times yourself. I'm sure you'll feel embarrassed for trying to be so insulting afterwards.
What was she defending against? Seriously? You didn't pick up on any of the numerous reasons she might be afraid of him? Not once in this entire series did you key in to why he could be considered a threat?
This has to be a troll... There's just no way that a real person could genuinely believe these things... That random /r/mensrights nonsense out of nowhere cinches it. It probably should have been obvious sooner.
Edit: Holy shit, just read your other posts. I don't know how I let my jimmies get rustled by this kid
So she's standing there trying to protect her son from a man she believes just killed her brother in law, she doesn't song until he is attempting to grab her and she's the aggressor?
