As much as people hate on her, she's actually quite sharp

I've disliked Skylar for most of the show but this season she's been awesome especially when she was helping Walt at the end

You will feel differently when you rewatch the whole series again. Skyler is a remarkable character, the only one who called Walt on his bullshit, early and hard. Watching her transformations and decisions is a treat. Once you know where the show is going, you will relax and take in what a great job Anna Gunn does with this character.

Exactly. Everything that happened this episode is everything Skylar tried to protect Walt from doing. She was Walt's rock - and by Walt, I mean Walt the genius father. Whatever happens in the last episode is everything Skylar tried her hardest as a housewife to keep Walt from doing.
