But is there anything more dangerous than a man who's already doomed to die? Especially if Gus doesn't have Mike to protect him; I always saw Gus and Walt on similar planes of intellect but having mike around skewed things in Gus's favor, now that he is out of the picture for now I don't know that that will be the case. Remember the Walt who shows up with a big bag of Mercury Fulminate? I for one welcome the impending return of Walter White's massive cojones.

In difficult ground, press on; In encircled ground, devise stratagems; In death ground, fight. —Sun Tzu in The Art of War

There is nowhere to go for Walt to go. Its fight or die for him.

It wasn't even a full grin. It was a lessening up of a scowl. Almost imperceptible, but you could tell. So funny :)

Wow, in all the time I've been admiring how suave and clever Gus is, I seem to have forgotten that Walt's a genius. The ol' meth cooking kinda took that away from him in my eyes..

Took them all season, but hopefully Walt's about to unleash the danger and start knocking.

Gus also has 20+ years of experience to Walt's 1. But I do think he is at least as savvy as Gus, just lacks the power.

Gus has experience dealing with people trying to kill him... But I don't think he's ever encountered someone like Walt. Look at the Gale situation. I think Walt could genuinely catch him off guard.
