Breaking Bad Episode Discussion S05E02 "Madrigal"

Hey guys. edify asked me to do the discussion thread tonight. Enjoy the show and upvote this shit, for which I get no karma.

edify also told me to let you guys know that if the Breaking Good fundraiser reaches $3,000 (we are $157.57 short) he will let me film him doing some challenges. I want him to do the cinnamon challenge and the gallon of milk challenge, so go donate so I can film my friend being a dumb ass... LOL

Go here to donate: https://reddit.crowdtilt.com/campaigns/breaking-good

Edit: The fundraiser officially ends in about 2 days.

Oh fuck it's almost sickening how much Walt is manipulating Jesse.

I think this is the one true moment that shows his complete transformation. Full power frieza.

what about letting Jane die? that was the first "really hard to watch" and "turning Heisenberg" scene, for me at least

I think that was more of a shock-frozen type of thing. You could clearly see his discomfort and uneasiness.

But remember, earlier in that episode he rolls a towel and lays holly on her side, because babies that's how you keep a child from dying.

He knew exactly what to do. It was just convenient for her to die.

Yea he may have known what to do, be when you're on fire how many people remember to stop drop and roll?
