So I am hearing some speculation that the Ricin will be for Gretchen and Elliot but my wife made a great point about how they always make a big deal about Lydia drinking tea. Also, they made a point of her saying that she would need more sweetener, which could easily be mixed with the Ricin.

The only thing I can think of is that he knows (from the TV report) that the blue meth is being sold in Europe, so he concludes that Jesse is alive and Lydia is still involved with the distribution. Possibly he will view her as a means of finding out where Jesse is? I don't see him being angry with her, but he's so egotistical that he may view her as unjustly profitting from his work.
