The Mike in BB was born when he told Nacho's dad what happened to Nacho in BCS. Mike thought he and Nacho were better than everybody else mixed up in this mess. Nacho's dad set him right.
Mike still had moral issues with it though. He wouldn’t kill (anyone else) for a while, wouldn’t take dirty jobs until Gus saved his life from the street brawls and even then did it with the justification of revenge.
This scene is eerily similar to when they bury Lalo and Howard under the super lab. Mike was downright ashamed of himself but here he seems used to it but still ashamed.
10000% it’s so sad to realise this has probably happened to a missing persons out there & there family’s truly never knew what happened to there son or daughter & even family member < this is such a good show but powerful in every way ☹️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@arthurfleck629 Well no, it's not THAT common to be happening simultaneously everywhere at any given time... but yeah it surely happens once every few times you hear somebody went missing.
This cold open is by FAR the most frightening scene of the entire BrBa/El Camino/BCS universe. The way they dismantle the bike and put it into the barrel then open another one for Drew is horrifying. There is no coming back from something this horrible.
them dismantling the bike might as well have been an analogy for what they did to drew afterwards Like temperature, the acid is going to eat faster through something the more exposed it is- chopping up the body before placing in the barrel was probably standard, especially after rigor mortis sets in
I've realized that despite Mike being one the lesser evils amongst them, he is involved in two of the worst crimes in this universe. The coverup of Drew Sharp and Howard Hamlin
Back in 1989 and 1991, I knew of two kids in Southern California who vanished without a trace. One of them was named Shane, I don’t remember his last name. The other was Jared Negrete. Shane vanished not too far from where I lived (at the edge of the Angeles National Forest), Jared was further away when he vanished in San Jacinto. The theories were that they were, much like Drew Sharp, in the wrong place at the wrong time and saw something that they shouldn’t have, and as a result they were made to disappear. To this day, neither of them have been found.
To me is pretty obvious Walt is still a little bit troubled by what happened. Not as Mike perhaps, and obviously not as Jesse, but he is. Todd on the other hand is completely cold, a true psycho.
Yeah, but knowing how Walt's mind tended deal with guilt: It's only a matter of time before he starts telling himself "it had to be done" or "it could've been worse", or "actually it was someone else's fault", or whatever excuse criminals tell themselves in order to convince themselves the're the "good guys" somehow. The problem isn't weather or not they feel bad about what they do, it's weather or not their willing to change their behavior.
@@KeksweitwerferThat's such a microcosmic moment, too. Guy _does_ have guilt, but he actively works to shoo it away to suit his egotistical goals and actions.
3:09 the creepiest thing about this is that we know Todd feels nothing - he’s not nervous or stressed about anything. There’s literally no need for him to smoke, unlike Jesse who just witnessed one of the most traumatizing things in his life.
Mikes face at 2:25 is so haunting. I believe his inner monologue is saying (in the words of Paul Edgecomb) “I've done some things in my life I'm not proud of, but this is the first time I've ever felt in real danger of hell.”
The disc with Jesse's confessions was at Jack's compound, we don't know if they destroyed it after watching so maybe while investigating the scene other cops found it, and Marie tells them they recorded it at their house
I think where he morally changed is in 609 (Fun and Games) when he talked to nacho’s father After that he knows he can’t strive to be a good person anymore, in better call saul we see Mike had something still in him after Werner but in 609 its gone…
I love how it first looks like Walt doesn‘t want to look at the Body and goes away because of that, implicating that his Moral Compass is still somewhat intact but then it‘s revealed that he was just getting a barrel. Cold as Ice, doesn‘t give a damn.
You can clearly tell he cares a little still, but there's not a lot of that care left. At the end of the day he accepted the death of Drew pretty quickly and decided to stay in the business knowing this could happen again, and that's when he really stopped caring and his soul was truly beyond saving, you could never redeem someone like that.
This scene is perhaps the most horrific in the entire series after you yourself have had kids. Imagine them murdering your own boy for no reason and putting his precious body in a plastic container to be dissolved by acid. You cannot fathom the sheer horror of it all. These people were deep into evil, psychopathic territory. They were all culpable. Awful stuff.
I don't even have kids and I'm hesitant to rewatch this show because I know this will eventually come up. So I'll probably never watch it again if I have kids.
Nah, the human is softer and more elastic/squishy so it's easier to stuff down into the barrel. The bike required a lot of extra sawing just to fit, definitely more work and with sparks flying that could burn you. I'm a bit on the lazier side so if it was one job or the other I had to do I'd personally take the former
@ pro-socialsociopath769 It ever occur to you that people are NOT, in fact, impressed by your sociopathy? 🙄 I’ve seen you often in the comments with this same demeanor.
Jesse is probably so troubled, cuz the whole train heist was his idea. Also, he was the one who told Todd repeatedly, that nobody should know about that heist
@@ieatsand9259 As well as the instance that Walt throws himself at Carmen and she turns down his advances, thus preventing us from ever getting to see her naked. That still haunts me to this day.
@@katshuskysthis feels worse. At least Brock was never going to die and Walt poisoned him to save himself from Gus, but here it's just out of money and power.
One of the things I love about Breaking Bad & Better Call Saul, and what makes it so realistic, is that if something is trully screwed up, I feel it. Every series, every movie has to be packed with action, gun shots, death all the time - it's meaningless at this point. I watched Breaking Bad for the first time in 2019 and it was a refreshing approach to brutality - there wasn't a lot of it comparing to other shows, but I got so used to shows not giving any crap about someone's death that seeing Jessie that couldn't get over over some random kid's death was like "yeah, it actually is such a screwed up thing to do". Other shows only make you care about someone's death if that someone was important. This show makes you care about a random character that showed up in the episode only to die. What other show does that?
Man there's too many top moments from this show... when drew died... the elation we all felt after successful robbig the train... to utter tragedy and despair... man, ill watch this for a 4th time
Oddly, scene like this remind of a sober truth: Out of everyone, Todd would have probably made the best drug kingpin. He simply has no conscience, no pride, no real emotion about anything. He doesn't commit unnecessary crimes, but he has absolutely no qualms about doing what needs to be done. Family around him get killed; he shrugs it off. He isn't overly greedy, but if there is money to be made, he will pursue that. He isn't paranoid or delusional; he doesnt think he is smarter than he is, but he always applies himself and tries to learn. Dude is unlikeable as they come; but in the cold light of day, he really would make for the perfect leader for a drug organization.
This scene is so powerful because we never see what happens to Drew but it’s all implied from previous moments on the show and the fact they show the bike getting the same treatment. We’re left to fill in the blanks and that’s what adds to the horror of the scene.
Best scene in the entire show hands down. Nothing will ever top this level of music, suspense, sadness, and whimsy. BRAVO VINCE GALLAGEN YOU CANNOT MISS!!!
What if they all just started messing around with the pieces of the bike as the ominous music played, like Walter just holds part of it over his head and starts acting like a monkey as Todd and Mike stand there laughing.
I wonder if Mike left the room during the disposal of Drew. His expression speaks volumes seeing a young child, someone’s young son, who wasn’t ever in the game, now deceased.
What's interesting to me is that the unsettling way they're trying to fit all the bike's parts, and then having to brutally break it apart into smaller chunks, to all fit in, is in a way either foreshadowing or symbolizing the brutality of how they perhaps fit Drew's body into the tub. They demonstrated the violent act without needing to visualize it on-screen.
So weird seeing this as a dad now, I mind watching it years ago when it came out and just treating it like a somber scene. Now, I'm bloody crying! My kids have turned me soft!
@@joseluis5055 Nothing can prepare you for it. You will never love anything the same as you love your kids, you won’t understand it till it happens. The single greatest gift you can ever get.
It's interesting that Jesse Walt and Mike had no issues manufacturing drugs and destroying so many lives across the nation and later the world, but this affected them the way it did. Jesse had seen first hand the conditions that little boy was living in at Spooge's house, and also the condition of Tuckers house and life so he knew what his line of work did to children and families.
Isn't this the same show where the main protagonist picks up a big potted plant and says to his wife "I'm talking to Ted" and throws it against a window?
You know, I like to think that one of the only things Mike appreciates about Walter is Walt's insistence that everyone follow proper lab safety protocols
This scene always made me think about missing person cases. It makes me wonder how many of those people who simply up and disappeared simply saw something they weren't supposed to see...
People watch this and still say that Skyler is worse than walter, Walter did not directly kill this child no, but he covered it up and thought nothing of it. That itself should be evil enough for anyone.
My god, not only did they cut the life of a child off before he probably even hit puberty but they also desecrated his corpse. Drew can’t catch a break!
2:24 Mike looked like he obvs felt bad and wondering how he ended up here but ppl say walt was a monster sometimes but u can tell he felt somewhat terrible that he has to do this to keep himself and everyone else safe from the police, dissolving a child
Fantastic detail that I never noticed. The MOMENT Jesse lights his cigarette, Todd starts across the parking lot, audibly crunching the gravel with each step. When I was deployed with the Army, the only thing you had any control of was using tobacco. If you dipped, smoked, etc. etc. If you did, smoking that cigarette was your five minutes of peace that you could escape and distract yourself with. Todd is SUCH a problem and polar opposite in Jesse's life, that Jesse can't even light a cigarette and have five minutes of normalcy, without a psychopath inserting himself into the situation.
The mood whiplash of the previous episode which then led into this cold open is one of those "you had to be there" moments. The emotion of seeing that on TV for the first time, no matter how many times you rewatch the episodes, you will never feel that again.
I thought the same, but they’re using the same barrels that they managed to shove Victor in. They didn’t need to dismember him, and Victor is, well was, a full grown man.
Obviously, the worst thing they could have shown was the boy's body in the acid, but there's something even more heartbreaking about the systemic disassembly of his bike-it just reinforces the innocence and joy that was lost.
Perhaps it was a metaphor for what would happen next, considering the body wouldn't fit in the barrel in one piece.

Jesse had seen first hand the conditions that little boy was living in at Spooge's house, and also the condition of Tuckers house and life so he knew what his line of work did to children and families.
Maybe don’t drive in the middle of nowhere, boy
he was looking for a tarantula
This is how soap is made
You do not talk about fight club
Boy meat soap 👦🥩🧼
Bro did nothing he probably wouldve kept his mouth shut.
The scary part is that he probably would have talked to someone at some point. What would they have done then?
Isn't this the same show where the main protagonist picks up a big potted plant and says to his wife "I'm talking to Ted" and throws it against a window?
You know, I like to think that one of the only things Mike appreciates about Walter is Walt's insistence that everyone follow proper lab safety protocols
2:25 Mike's face just screams "Damn us all."
poor mike
This scene always made me think about missing person cases. It makes me wonder how many of those people who simply up and disappeared simply saw something they weren't supposed to see...
People watch this and still say that Skyler is worse than walter, Walter did not directly kill this child no, but he covered it up and thought nothing of it. That itself should be evil enough for anyone.
Those idiots were lighting up RIGHT NEXT to the methylamins
One thing I learned from this show is to get rid of all the evidence
After howard, I think this is the worst death in the entire universe
I love how Jesse punches him right after
This is the moment where Drews parent couldn't find their dirt bike
The point of no return.
That was actually the first time I felt sick to my stomach while watching the show.
It got me going, personally...
@pro-socialsociopath769 going where? I mean I liked that they showed the dark side and reality. That's it not all fun and money.
What about the Happy birthday mr president of beneke incorporated
My god, not only did they cut the life of a child off before he probably even hit puberty but they also desecrated his corpse. Drew can’t catch a break!
Darkest scene of the entire show / breaking bad world.
2:24 Mike looked like he obvs felt bad and wondering how he ended up here but ppl say walt was a monster sometimes but u can tell he felt somewhat terrible that he has to do this to keep himself and everyone else safe from the police, dissolving a child
Fantastic detail that I never noticed.
The MOMENT Jesse lights his cigarette, Todd starts across the parking lot, audibly crunching the gravel with each step.
When I was deployed with the Army, the only thing you had any control of was using tobacco. If you dipped, smoked, etc. etc. If you did, smoking that cigarette was your five minutes of peace that you could escape and distract yourself with.
Todd is SUCH a problem and polar opposite in Jesse's life, that Jesse can't even light a cigarette and have five minutes of normalcy, without a psychopath inserting himself into the situation.
The mood whiplash of the previous episode which then led into this cold open is one of those "you had to be there" moments. The emotion of seeing that on TV for the first time, no matter how many times you rewatch the episodes, you will never feel that again.
On rewatch, I always forget how depressing Breaking Bad can be.
I missed days like this on the show before it got dark.
Todd is the perfect example of a psychopath.
The notes at 0:41 reminds me heavily of the opening track off the Blade Runner 2049 OST.
Walt was waaaay too far gone at this point.
Fun fact that I found in this video: Walter White, Mike and Todd are dissolving the same boy they met at the desert. Bravo Vince!
Vrabo bince!
I certainly HOPE it’s the same boy and not another one they iced between episodes. 😬
Walt never pulled the trigger but he melted the body into nothing but soup
This is actually a darker scene compared to my future
Mike's face is profound acting and Walt did a good job as well.
This is by far the most disturbing and dark scene I’ve ever seen in BB
The pauses Walt and Mike make when disassembling the bike while Psycho Todd just keeps going.
The scariest scene from the show
The song is PERFECT for this scene
Nah it should have been funkytown and the scene would've went a lot differently
im shocked the whole dirt bike fits in that barrel.
Only because he stood at the wrong place at the wrong time. He didn't do anything wrong
Todd didn't want to take a half measure. What's your problem, Mike?
Definitely the most chilling scene in Breaking Bad. Shocked they let it happen on cable tv.
Their dismantling of the bike implies that drew's body was also dismatled before it was dissolved
Chop chop 🔪🔪👦💀🥩🩸
I thought the same, but they’re using the same barrels that they managed to shove Victor in. They didn’t need to dismember him, and Victor is, well was, a full grown man.
In the insider podcast (Breaking bad podcast)
Vince mentioned that they never thought about dismembering the kid's body cuz they feel it was bad taste
@@slayerpro1856 That and too much mess.
i scrolled way too far to find this
