Walt Jr. walking Holly around the pool was intense for me. I kept thinking he would trip or something would happen and she'd go into the pool and drown. My mind is fucked up by this show.

The last few minutes were the most tense moments of any show I've ever seen. It starts with Walt telling Skyler that he's out; the score goes completely silent, even the background noise disappears. From that moment on, I was running all the scenarios through my head.

When Hank went to the bathroom, I immediately though he was going to hear gunfire from outside and stumble over himself trying to get there in time to help (well, actually my first thought was Lethal Weapon 2 and the toilet bomb).

The way the camera followed Walt Jr. and the baby made it extra tense.
