I think that may have been the single most intense tv episode ever
I would have to agree. This is the first episode I ever watched and, knowing virtually nothing, I was drawn in. I can't imagine how intense it have been for people who know the characters well.
Gilligan is a god among creators. The cast performances here are untouchable. Everyone raised their game (except Cranston, his was always up there), even RJ Mitte. His best performance so far. What else can I say? It's been a privilege to watch this whole show unfold. This will have to be re-watched at least another couple times, with so much having happened.
Here's my thoughts/ideas on what's to come..
Spoiler!
Walt will find out Jesse is still alive by putting 2 and 2 together when he notices the resurfacing of his signature blue on the streets. He knows that they couldn't produce it the way he could - he probably taught them improperly on purpose, as it was "his" recipe.
Also, I'm sure he wants revenge on the nazi crew. But this is about Jesse. He wants him dead. I'm sure Walt's figured he's a threat to Walt's family as long as he's alive with even the remote possibility of escape, since he went all out by admitting his witnessing of Jane's death. Walt's Heisenberg side will also see this as a betrayal on the part of Jack. Certainly enough motive there to come back.
The M60 is for the crew. The ricin (not sure why that method yet, but it's only fitting) is for Jesse.
Lydias days are numbered. Better jump on that horse quick, Todd.

Hank obviously called to get as much heat of Skylar as possible. Only real piece of "strategy" that can be discussed. Rest of the episode was just insanity. Some dick on FB spoiled the episode for kicks luckily I didn't read it but what kind of a-hole does that.

With Walt having fled, and the cops knowing pretty much everything about him through Skylar, I would think that the Aryans aren't going to think twice about eliminating a key witness that could bring the heat down on them.
I'm not sure who you mean here. Walt? Walt's family? Does Skyler even know about Todd, Jack and that group?
So what's going to make Skylar and Junior move out of the house? Sometime between now and Hank showing back up, they desert the house and someone tags the inside. Do they move in with Marie? Witness protection of some kind? Or do they also go on the run?
I don't know about the ricin being for Jesse, I still think Walt is going to use it to hasten his own demise. Basically ingest it, go to the police and take the blame for all of murders and illicit activities that happened, and then after he has been booked and in jail, he'll just die. It would make sense for him to do this, especially to take the fall for whatever Jack and company did, so they would have no reason to go after Skyler for knowing anything, since Walt already confessed / falsely confessed to everything.
The hate that Walt has for Jesse is so intense, and ironic, especially considering Walt pretty much caused alot of pain and misery to Jesse, and Jesse only really finally retaliated now. I wonder if Walt, in the last 2 episodes will recognize how he mistreated Jesse.

I think either Jesse or Marie tag / vandalize the house. Depending on whether Jesse escapes or not. Marie is full of rage, so it could be her way of coping.. and letting everybody know exactly what Hank was trying to prove.
One of the darkest things I've ever seen on a TV series, it's almost gut wrenching to see all these characters you've watched for so long get completely torn up so fast
