The Save Walter White and Better Call Saul sites are both owned by Sony Pictures. The Madrigal one is not, so it's safe to assume, it's not officially affiliated with the show.

Walt manipulating Jesse to dump his girlfriend, using Skylar's fear to move back in and revealing her affair with Ted to Marie was really showing how fast he's going to the dark side. It all seems so easy for Walt to be evil these days.

Mike was freaking awesome this episode. Yelling to get out of the prison. Showing up when Badger and Skinny Pete are trying to hit Jesse up for a job. Laying down the law on the pest control guys - "you need a name for 'em? call 'em yessir and no sir."

When Walt was talking about Viktor, was he making a point about Mike's "people", Mike himself, or was he trying to put fear in Jesse? I didn't quite catch what point he was making.

I loved the scene when they were watching Scarface and Walt Jr. asked his mom to join them.

Yeah I watched it again and all I can really infer is that he's referencing Mike impacting the money they make. Not sure why he'd be threatening Jesse at this point, but who knows.

Walt becoming less and less sympathetic and likeable with each episode.

How are things?
... With the money.

Not so subtle Scarface inference.

I wasn't sure what Walt was referencing with the Victor comment. Was that supposed to be about Mike trying to replace Gus, the way Victor was trying to replace Jesse?

Curious about Todd's fate. All of those pest control guys were told to not speak unless spoken to. Even though it was a helpful comment, Walt seemed perturbed by it. Maybe he'll go boxcutter on him to prove a point and show Mike that those guys didn't listen to him.

I liked the little smirk on Walt's face when Marie hugged him.

Damn you week long wait!

I thought the little speech at the end to Jesse was basically Walt saying he wants the respect that Gus had

Victor was killed because he disrespected Gus' product and his choice in chemists ("I can do this by myself" did both)

He got too arrogant/flew too close to the sun

Walter thinks Mike is doing the same either by all the extra fees, or by them all having to pay a cut for his legacy payments

So it seems that Walter thinks he is going to have to do something to put Mike back in line (or where Walter thinks he should be in line)

Yeah, that was about as foreboding as it gets. Pretty sleaze move to spill about Skyler and Ted too, though I don't know what he can say to Marie to make her leave. I guess he's dug the hole at that point, all he can do is dig deeper.

Pretty much a given that Walt and Mike would cross paths and soon, Walt just thinks too highly of himself and takes too many risks. He'd be a much happier man (though the show would be less interesting) if he was just happy with the deals he has. $100,000 in a week (maybe two?) is good money and would do everything he ever wanted for his family when he first set out on his path to 'break bad' after he got his diagnosis. He wanted what, a little over a million to provide for them after he's gone? 10-15 weeks of work and he's got it if he doesn't rock the boat. Plus he already has the car wash, which even if it isn't a great business is at least a considerable amount of equity.

Of course, I guess that shows the corrupting power of money. Once you get some, you want more. Although, I think in Walt's case, it's more about him wanting to be 'the man' than earn as much as he can. His pride and ego constantly screw him up. He wants to be in charge and wants others to know how awesome or how dangerous he is, when he hasn't quite paid the price yet.

As Mike said, and I've been thinking this since the third season, Gus took 20 years to set up the perfect network and cover, but for some reason Walt thinks he's deserving of it in a year or two of work.

They'll shock if they detect fibrillation (atrial, ventricular) so a normal, rhythmic pulse or no pulse = no shock. TV LOSES AGAIN! Another thing, if I remember too, the guy put the wire in his mouth and the pad on the upper right side of the chest. The arc wouldn't cross his heart and wouldn't kill him. However, who cares?
