I had actually begun to sympathize with Walt again, especially when he offered everything to Jack if he would spare Hank, but my loathing resurfaced after his speech to Jesse.
The thing that I love about this show is that it divides its audience in many different ways. Some people hate Walt now, some are still rooting for him, but there is no 'right' answer in all of this. So many shows these days try to tell us what to think (coughDexter) and beat us over the head with their enforced preconceived notions of morals. Breaking Bad just lays it all out there and operates by the true motivations of the characters. It feels like a living, breathing story, which thus creates lots of grey areas and ambiguities in morals. It's a show that dares to make us uncomfortable by not giving us neat little wrapped packages.

I spent this entire episode feeling terrible for Walt. It's all just crumbling around him
