What an a-hole way of ending the episode.

Haha, I screamed at the TV afterwards (wanting an intense scene between Hank and Jesse), then realized what I have to look forward to next week.

Dean Norris is easily creeping into Emmy territory. Brilliant portrayal of his character. The scene between Hank and Skyler in the diner was fantastic. You could feel the desperation from each character, and Norris' performance was enthralling. You could completely identify with Hank's desire to finish Heisenberg at any cost, even knowing what that cost may be.

As an aside, I'm really enjoying Anna Gunn's analysis on the show in this 'Talking Bad'. This lady has a very astute understanding of the show that goes beyond the script she is given.

Yup, I was actually angry at a tv show, which I can't say has happened before in my life.

Goddamn this is a good show. So sad it's ending in 6 more episodes.

Dean Norris is looking very good. I don't think he has ever been weak in the show, but unless Aaron Paul steps it up, Norris looks like the fore-runner for best supporting.

I was kind of hoping that Walt would have dug the hole for the money too shallow. That would have been hilarious.

Walt's GPS must have been broken. Those coordinates point to a movie studio in Albuquerque, not the middle of the desert. http://goo.gl/maps/q6sYr


Titles for the remaining episodes...

Nope, I do that too. I find the commercials completely spoil the mood. There's nothing more annoying than cutting away from a dark tense scene to some loud, obnoxious sunshine and lollipops jingle.

I am not sure if I would, even if I did have a PVR.

I did wish they would follow Breaking Bad immediately with Talking Bad. Although, I have to admit that Low Winter Sun isn't bad and its a good way to get people to watch a new show.

Anyone else suspect Huell and Burr of maybe placing some sort of tracking device on the vehicle or in the barrels?

And boom goes the dynamite!

Fan-freakin-tastic episode.

Forgot to mention last week that's Jesse's behaviour would probably draw attention. Even if he did drive off after throwing the money around, the money probably would have made a story on the news. People wouldn't have been able to keep quiet on that.

So yeah, of course Hank was going to run into him sooner or later.

Was a little surprised he was pushing Skyler so hard when he first met her. Guess it does show to his character, he really wants this.

And for once I did feel bad for Marie. Of course she would be mad if she thought Walt somehow caused Hank to get shot (which in a roundabout way he did).

Wonder what's going to happen with Walt Jr. Wonder if Hank and or Marie might try talking to him. Even if not, Walt and Skyler are going to have to spill the beans pretty soon here.

Like Burr said (couldn't quite catch the characters name) when Huell mentioned Mexico, Walt had 10 people whacked in a two minute span. They're too scared (and smart) to try something stupid.

I think they may have pocketed a stack or two though, lol.

Walt seemed pretty blase about whether all of the money was in the barrels, and the look on Huell and Burr's face seemed to indicate something was up.

The probably did those co-ords on purpose. If they gave real co-ords to a place in the desert some goofy fanboys would go dig the spot up, much to the chagrin of the New Mexico government I imagine.

I thought that was more of a "damn, we could have totally taken some"

Well it's only been a day of time hasn't it? He's probably at school. Or Lewis' house.

Oh, and interesting power play by Lydia. Though I think she's just creating another set of problems to fix hers, if her plan does even end up fixing them.

Yeah, that's what I thought too, or maybe even a sigh of, whew we got away with pocketing a little. But I doubt they planned anything big. Like I said, Burr's character was very clear about knowing how dangerous he knew Walt to be.

That would probably be pretty cool if they gave the real location. Sounds like there are already tours of some of the locations used in the show. Not that I would go to ABQ just for that, but if I was there, it would be pretty fun to do some Breaking Bad geo-caching.

Wonder if anybody can find the real location on Google Earth...

Yup. That's what I was thinking. It also gives some free publicity to their studio.
