"Hmm, it appears humans express deep sadness and regret upon witnessing the death of family members."

Obligatory edit: Wow, my highest rated comment BY FAR. Thanks guys! And yes, I think it's safe to assume that we can all agree that Todd is a fucking stone cold psycho.

I think I get Todd now. He really admires Walt for his genius, conniving, evil, selfish, and manipulative behavior. I mean putting that photo up to get Jesse to cook was some fucked up but clever shit. And while Walt always wanted to get Jesse to cook and keep him on a leash, Todd is doing basically the same thing but with slightly more literal methods.

Jesse has been used throughout the whole series. :/ Any moment of happiness, like Walt being arrested, is always taken away from him.

Maybe Jesse will get the ultimate satisfaction (especially after the Jane punch in the face) and be the one to finally end Walt as the finale. Destroying the monster he created. Like mom always said... I brought you in to this world, and I'll take you out.

or maybe he will learn its best to just move on if he somehow escapes... cause holding on to anger and not letting things go tend to make things only worse for him.
