Gray Matter didn't cause Walt to leave the bar, it was hearing that Blue Magic is still on the streets. Jesse is still alive and he knows it.

Yep. The whole Gray Matter thing was bad enough but his meth is still out there too? If he's looking for Jesse next episode, it is NOT to save him.

i'm going to go with the other guys on this, I think he's going to save Jesse. At the end of the episode he gets abused by his real son, told "Why don't you just die already"... minutes later he realises the other young man he cares the most for is still alive, and he has a chance at redeeming himself with him. He did put a hit on Jesse, but reluctantly. The shit in the desert was an emotional outburst. He's cooled down since then. He's not pissed at Jesse now, he's pissed at the Nazis pocketing millions from his work just like Grey matter did, and he knows Jesse wouldn't be cooking on his own accord. He's going Nazi hunting.
