Apparently, Anthony Hopkins wrote Bryan Cranston a letter after this episode aired, telling him the crawlspace scene was "the best acting I've ever seen." Imagine getting that kind of praise from an actor like that!
Well since they thought it was hilarious and thought Walt was one big dopey idiot in that moment....my guess is that no...they couldn't imagine that.
@@blackowl5143 you know that you can think a character is being an idiot while at the same time seeing that the actor is doing an incredible job right, they're not mutually exclusive
@@blackowl5143they literally praised Bryan’s acting in that ending scene
@@blackowl5143they literally said that the last seven minutes of Bryan Cranston’s acting, including the crawl space scene, was impeccable…
@@blackowl5143 They literally praised his acting in that scene bro, said it was "impeccable"
Kuby: "Huell, you happy?"
/-_-\: "Reasonably."
😂
Definitely represents Huell accurately with that face.
Huell is a mood. Huell is the moment.
This is really the turning point of Huell’s mood.
Ooh, ah, ooh, tiki tiki!
Walt's fault isn't stupidity, it's ego. He thinks he's smarter than everyone else, he thinks he can predict what everyone will do and acts according to THAT. But because he's all book smarts and not street smarts, he often guesses wrong, and then he lashes out and makes things worse. And because of his huge ego, he's unable to stop this repeating behavior, he ignores the mistakes that backfire on him and only looks at his handful of victories as proof of his superiority.
Yes, it is ego, but I don't see why having such immense arrogance, to the point where you and everyone else around you is constantly in danger, is somehow not stupid?
Walt telling Hank that Heisenberg was still out there was egotistical, sure, but also incredibly stupid.
A lot of his actions are stupid, we just understand the source of that stupidity, which is his ego.
Yeah Walt is logical and analytical, he often fails to consider people's actions are often guided by emotion rather than logic. He seems to realize this throughout the show though, and his strategies shift from pure logic to manipulation. That's what makes Gus such a good antagonist, because he's as logical, analytical and manipulative as Walt, but he's also in the life.
In brief: Walt cannot take an L to save his life, literally.
Walt is insufferable, but he is not an idiot and his enemies do the same mistake you do: Underestimate him. And he is absolutely right about Gus calculating to bring Jesse on his side. Its obvious and kinda confuses me that you don't see it. Walt is right about that - but he is to unempathic and proud to actually talk to Jesse. Whom again he saved in season 3 by killing these two guys.
I will never, ever forget what it felt like watching this episode the night that it aired. What an incredible hour of television.
wow I wish I could've experienced that
@@llfarnazll It was amazing for sure, but it was also painful having to wait every week.
And then having to wait between seasons as well! S5 aired in two eight-episode halves and the wait between them was UNBEARABLE. Especially with the reveal they drop at the end of episode 508. 😩
same here. i remember going online on forums and discussing it afterwards. that last shot blew everyones minds
@@DanielZeal And the audacity for them to do the same thing with the last season of Better Call Saul!
@@DanielZeal Man that is brutal. I watched GOT as it aired and I was so submerged in the subculture omg it was an other era :)) I wish I'd experienced that with BB too
walt goes from " i am the danger" to "why so serious ?"
Y’all go on for 20 minutes about how he wasn’t “responsible” enough to set aside the money when he literally had the money set aside. What am I missing?
Your real gripe seems to be that he didn’t hide it from Skylar (i.e. he trusted her not to liquidate half a million dollars without saying a word about it)
They said their real issue. Their real issue is that Skyler was in the dark about what really went on. If she had known the situation Walt was in, she never would have given that money away. She thought it was the right call to make because she thought they could go on like this for a while and that Teds IRS troubles were the most dangerous issue for them right now. Because Walt told her a fairy tale.
@@Serryyits not about honesty tho. nobody in their right mind gives away 600k without even MENTIONING it. defaulting to “its walts fault” is crazy
It's cause they *know* that Ted has an IRS issue. And they *know* that Jesse isn't gonna kill Gus. 2 things Walt doesn't know.
It's basically Captain Hindsight. It happens when you forget that you get to watch all the characters.
For God's sake, Walt doesn't even know that Skylar is even still talking to Ted, much less on the hook for cooking his books.
@@djbillybool8173 It's both faults because of Skyler's initial mistake. But quite honestly, she doesn't have much of a choice here. She doesn't give that money away, the IRS is on their ass.
You're missing the fact Walt repeatedly lied to and misled Skylar about whether or not they were in danger all ego. He wanted his wife to think he was in charge, that he and so she and their family were untouchable, that his face being messed up was because he go into a bar tussle with a co-worker who he went easy on because he was older.
He misled her about the dangers, he got her to believe they would have $7M by the end of the year, and LITERALLY TOLD HER that a business that would crash the NASDAQ only ran because of him. ALL because of his ego.
*Walter breathes*
"He is LITERALLY the worst. I can't stand him!"
Gustavo: I will kill your infant daughter.
"oMg, Daddy Gus!"
Dude just stop watching then, what are you even doing here? Lmao
@@lokazoum4816 wow why didn’t I think of that?! Thanks bro! :)
@@F26_RAIDER no problem man! Hopefully you stop wasting your time watching something that you clearly dont like
@@lokazoum4816 golly, what would I do without your insight!? I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy day to share your wisdom. 🙏🏻
@@F26_RAIDER Don't worry about it, clearly you wouldn't do anything without my insight, as proven by the fact you continue to watch something you don't enjoy just to complain.
Always happy to give advice to anyone who needs it!
Walt is a bad guy and you're supposed to dislike him. But I don't think Vince Gilligan wanted you to think he was stupid. Opposite actually. It's his high level of intelligence that keeps getting him in trouble. He keeps making a series of bad decisions because he is an over-analytical control freak and is unable to see the downside of every decision he makes. Not because he's stupid but because he's too smart for his own good.
Bravo Vince 👏👏
But to be fair, if he's frequently unable to anticipate (and mitigate) the downsides of his bad decisions, then that IS still a type of stupidity.
Well there are several points where his ego overrides his normal analytical self and he has to rush and fix his mistakes. Hemanages to do so because of his intelligence.
@dlweiss it's not stupidity that causes his blindspots, but his own ego and need to be in control. He is incredibly smart and often makes the right decision, but he is more than willing to abandon reason and caution if his actions will make him feel powerful and in charge. He's also totally unwilling to relinquish control no matter how much it might benefit him
The girl wearing cap has brain of kid,
You gotta love that Skylar giving Ted the money she helped him cook is somehow still Walt's fault.
Its both faults. If Skyler doesnt do it theyre fine. If Walt doesnt lie to Skyler, she doesnt do that and theyre also fine.
Daddy issues
@@benguenschethis. Sometimes Freud gets it right
She thought the IRS was the biggest threat they were facing, because Walt didn't tell her about the bigger threats.
@@benguensche
That would be like me saying that you made that comment to cover for your tiny penis. Lazy sexism.
To be fair, Walt never said "I *hope* you'll end up in a barrel buried in the desert somewhere", he said "You'll *probably* end up in a barrel". Walt was trying to illustrate the threat that Gus poses to them and why Jesse needs to take him out w/ the ricin post haste.
Placing zero blame on Skyler for giving away all the family money to the guy she had an affair with is insane. C'mon ladies 😅
Wait, how does her affair with Ted change anything here? She didnt give that money because of the affair, she gave that money to keep herself and Walt out of trouble.
What other option did she have? She's right, her name is all over those books. Giving the money to pay the IRS was a smart move. Cooking the books in the first place was the dumb thing. She should have ran away from Ted the min she figured out he was breaking the law. She also should have told Walt about all of that before giving Ted the money.
@@supagremlin3274 Even telling Walt she still would have had to pay Ted. No way around that. I'm defending the decision to give the money not the choice to keep it from Walt. Walt AND Skyler are both to blame for the mess they are in.
@@supagremlin3274 If Walt tells her the truth, she never gives that money away
@Serryy if skyler was in a barrel back in season 3 everyone would be better off.
You guys are giving Skylar a pass but, don't you think telling your million dollar illegal meth lord husband about the pressing Ted/IRS situation would be a good idea?
True, but from her perspective, Walt is making shit tons of money, and will continue doing so for the foreseeable future, since he's constantly telling her "We're okay, I've got this under control", when he never did.
Everyone that criticizes Walt at this point forget that he’s only in this mess because of Jesse. He had the perfect partnership with Gus and that was severed the moment Jesse had an issue with those street thugs. If Walt followed Gus’ original advice he would have killed Jesse a long time ago and never would have compromised his relationship with Gus, Gale, and Mike. But because he chose the moral high road and remained loyal to Jesse, he was placed in this series of insane events.
That’s why he’s laughing at the end, because Skylar giving Ted his money is the ultimate cherry on top.
Good point, from someone with logic haha. I get that Jesse is a vulnerable big hearted little pretty boy but the exoneration he gets of any wrongdoing from everyone that loves the show is wild to me. Very similar to Nacho in BCS aswell imo. They deserve much more blame and criticism than they receive.
@@WholeFnShow1I love Jesse but yeah viewers tend to give him a pass because he’s outright protective of children. That’s all great but actions still have consequences
@@WholeFnShow1 He doesn't get exonerated of any wrongdoing. He just gets a little bit more empathy from viewers because, ya know, he's a much better person than Walt with a much longer life ahead of him. That's not even up for debate and it's crazy that people like you can't grasp that incredibly, incredibly simple concept. Walt is a massive piece of shit. Jesse isn't. End of story.
Walt is in the mess because he choose to be a meth dealing murderer. That's the thing that everyone forgets.
@@mehim2893if we’re talking cause and effect, Gus being at odds with Walt is the pivotal driving force for 70% of the series. If Jesse didn’t exist in season 3, there would be no more story to tell because Walt would’ve just cooked until he died or been killed for something else.
I am confused at some of their analysis here. Walt sucks but he's not to blame for literally everything happening here. On the one hand you think he's an idiot...but on the other a puppet master pulling all the strings? Forcing Skyler to give away his money?
I think most people have the same view points as you do. I love these two but their hate of Walt has completely blurred their vision of the show.
Yeah, I don't get why they say SKyler gave Ted the money just cuz Walt wasn't honest. Like bruh, what kind of conclusion is that? Walt was a liar and all, but lying didn't make Skyler go ahead and help Ted with his fucking own crimes with the IRS. She did it to keep the feds eyes aways, sure, but that aint walt's fault at all.
It's not that big of a deal.
Nah. Skylar asked straight up if they were in danger and Walt said no. The danger is the whole reason Walt needs the money. If he was honest and communicating effectively that money would still be there.
@@Roguegunslinger1even if they arent in danger, giving away 600k without even mentioning it is crazy
Did they just say Walts money missing is his fault because he wasn’t……….. honest…….. their need to blame anything on Walt is getting more frustrating than Walt himself. 💀💀💀🤦🏾♂️
Yeah the mental gymnastics honesty don’t make sense. At this point they’re going out of their way to hate him and after a couple of things they said in this episode they definitely have it spoiled for themselves.
I don't know what's hard to understand.
They shouldn't blame the guy that chose to deal meth and kill people? If Walt had never done that then none of this would be happening
These are the kind of people that will rally behind shows like The Acolyte to be nominated for Emmy's.
Gotta blame the man. All women are perfect 10s
Damn even Gus doesn’t hate Walter as much as these girls. 😂 They literally make reasons up to hate him like aren’t plenty enough. Like Skylar giving away the money and not telling him about it was because he wasn’t honest. Like that doesn’t even make sense.
it makes sense tho, he told her that everything was under control (but he wasn't), thus, from her view, Walt is doing "fine", makes a lot of money, it wouldn't hurt in the big picture to give that money to Ted
@@niubisaurio That didn't give her the right to spend their entire savings without telling him. She wasn't being honest either. She helped Ted commit tax fraud and didn't tell him about it. Why does she get a pass for dishonesty but Walt doesn't?
bryan cranstons scream into laughter is amazing, one of my favorite scenes from the entire show
Blaming Walt and a lack of communication for Skyler giving Ted the money behind Walt's back really requires some crazy mental gymnastics
Skyler was giving that man the money no matter what.
Their hate for walt blind Their logic
I really don't get how people that have watched this show are still defending Walt. I mean the show is literally called 'Braking Bad'.
@@SAYKODELIKmra Not defending Walt is not the same as blaming him for everything. He is deeds are really not defendible - but Skyler giving Ted money is really not on Walt. Its such a weird take.
@@TheOriginalDogLP Him not being open about this whole situation is the only reason why his whole family is in danger.
How is it not his fault???
Walt and Gus share an IMMENSE ego, the major difference between them is Walt is IMMENSELY human, while Gus has shedded all humanity and made his business his life. While Gus may be cooler on the surface and Walt keeps sweating about, one is clearly the protagonist and the other antagonist.
Dude these two completely misunderstand the writing constantly.
Gus did turn Jesse against Walt. That was his entire plan
Jesse bargained for Gus to let him live, for the time being, at least. So, no. If Gus is playing anyone, it's Walt. Walt grows increasingly paranoid and disgruntled working under surveillance and being cut out of the loop with Jesse being given more responsibility and face time with Gus. Walt then directs that anger against Jesse and pushes him away on his own.
He literally didn't tho, he knew what kind of person Walt was, and Walt did all the fucking work for him, which he knew Walt would do. Everything that happened that turned Jesse against him was all Walt's doing, Gus had nothing to do with it.
A lot of early BB fans don't understand Walt's character. He's the villain here. All the characters are bad (aside from the kids I guess), but Mike is 100% right about Walt, his nature and who he is. Walt is an ego maniac driven by nothing more than pride, regret, and spiteful bitterness. Any good intentions he may have had at the start of all this were completely gone by the end of Season 2.
@@theminingbat Mike kills dozens of people, and you write that Walt is a maniac because of his ego? WOW. Let's say that he has pride, ego, and then what? Many people have that. And this allows them to achieve great heights. Walt's haters are very hypocritical. You blame him for lying and trying to get out of jail, but everyone criminals on this show is lying and trying to get out of jail. And some people commit crimes because it is the norm for them (Gus, Mike). The same Jesse, by the way, was a criminal even before meeting Walt (In 1 ep). And his entire business with Heisenberg is their common business. All of Walter's crimes can be divided into 2. But you ignore this and consider Walter the worst. Walter actually decided to pursue crime for a worthy cause. Walter gets so much hate because we are constantly shown how he lies and manipulates for his own purposes. But let's be honest and adults. Jesse made his own decisions. So does Skyler. If we were constantly shown how Mike or Gus lied to hide their criminal activities (and it cannot be otherwise in this business), then they would receive the same amount of hatred.
This is the moment the crawlspace becomes Heisenberg.
You win comments
This is the moment the fly becomes Walter Jr’s imaginary superpowered friend
**crawlspace laugh**
I am the one who crawls
Among many points before this
You guys aren't giving Walt enough credit. His death warrant was signed the moment he saved Jesse when he confronted the drug dealers that killed his girlfriend's brother. every action he took after that was to prolong not just his, but Jesse's life as well, which worked out for him, because now neither of them will allow the other to die. Also, shouldn't Skylar have told Walt that she was giving away the majority of the money he had on hand away before doing it, instead of blaming walt for not paying ahead of time when he knew he had the money to pay for it already?
They're so dumb at this point
I love Beneke this episode because it's part of my favorite recurring theme in Breaking Bad/BCS: nobody thinks their own crimes are really *CRIME* crimes.
Marie shoplifts habitually but she thinks anybody who smokes pot is a subhuman. Hank bends the rules and assaults suspects on the regular but he's all about "catching the bad guys." Beneke defrauds the IRS to buy himself sports cars but illegal gambling money is "just not right." And if y'all watch Better Call Saul, you'll see the same theme recur. Privileged people delude themselves into thinking their own crimes don't count, somehow.
Okay Walt does suck but y’all are taking your criticisms too far & you’re making me like Walt piss you off.
They have a brain of 13 year old
For someone who calls Walt dumb, yall saying Ted should be capped is even more dumber 😂
“Even more dumber” ok smart man 😂
@@SpicyMarcoBBtouché
Walt being at fault for skyler giving the money to ted is some real convoluted reasoning. I'm trying to understand how that makes sense.
It's like saying it's all skylars fault cause she originally married Walt and after a million things happened, some weird thing happened that can be traced back to that moment
Don't try to make sense of their reasoning lol. They are both biased and additionally they can't even pick up on simple things. Constant weird interpretations. Just give up. It's been happening since ages on their reactions to BrBa 😂
@dariusz_darson_8968 I'm probably done with their reactions but I must admit I'm intrigued about the next 2 episodes and the mental gymnastics they will go through to somehow not give Walt any credit and make Hector their new daddy lol
@@MrAvaholic1921 Credit? Dude they will hate the outcome of the last episode. It's not something they want to happen. They will not credit anyone, they will BLAME Walt for what he does.
@@dariusz_darson_8968absolutely! It’s actually entertaining seeing how much they hate Walt lol
@@MrAvaholic1921 I will keep watching simply because I get so much entertainment out of seeing them hate Walt. And we’re not even at the point where Walt is at his worst yet, so I’m curious to see just how deep their hatred for him can go 😂 Its okay to dislike Walt at this point in the show, but hating him to the point to where you even blame him for things he had nothing to do with is next level stuff
Well if Walt had kept his 'stupid' mouth shut in the desert, then he wouldn't have found out that Gus was about to take out Hank, he also had Gus confirm that yes eventually he'd come after Walt, he only got this information by antagonizing him.
Keep in mind that Walt is only in this situation because he saved Jesse's life. That's what put him in Gus' crosshairs and to think that Walt being incredulous towards him made it worse is just not true. "Big Daddy Gus" is a mass murderer. I don't know why people don't recognize that.
Lol I think they forgot sylar cooked the books before she found out about Walt being a drug dealer. Him being honest wouldn't prevent them from her owe IRS. Also he did sign the divorce papers for her to leave and she chose to stay. Yall need to hold the other characters accountable for their decisions with the same energy.
I love walt idk how you guys can hate him so much. He is such a well written character.
How is walt supposed to anticipate Skylar giving away six hundred thousand dollars to a random lover that’s such a lukewarm IQ opinion.
One unexpected moment at the end of a long chain of poor decisions this season. He shouldn't have allowed things to get to the literal last resort.
@@SuzakuX that’s so much easier said than done
He should have just had skylsr wacked when she kicked him out
She never would've done that if Walt was honest with her from the get go. What about that is hard for you to understand? I can give you another example to illustrate their point if you'd like. Have you seen Better Call Saul Season 6?
Because he made Skylar feel like money, even that amount wasn't an issue and also kept her in the dark about the potential of actually needing money. He really created the whole scenario.
Omg, are you guys really that biased or you just unironically don't pick up on things?
Well, it somehow looks like both. Lol
I think the fact that they hate Walt and love Gus so much shows that their hatred is not so much based on morality, but rather personality type. They just don't like Walt's personality. That's fine btw, this is all subjective. HOWEVER I don't think you can then take the moral high ground like "If you like Walt you're a bad person" etc. Because you know, people who like Walt simply like him the same way the girls like Gus 🤷♂ Why is that so hard for some people to understand? Maybe we should start calling him Daddy Walt?
Thank you for writing this comment ❤ I agree with you completely
fr lol
7:11 bro I never realized that foreshadowing of Ted tripping wtf
God, i forgot how good this season was. One thing inlove is how everyones mistakes come back to bite them in the ass. Walt drunkely reigniting Hank's detective passion because he cant handle even the idea that the DEA thinks theybgot one over on him, Skylar having a fling with an old flame and going out on a limb to cook his books, the cartel establishing dominance over gus when he was new leading to a massive grudge.
God this show was good and it get so much better on rewatches
Walt is supposed to be a narcissistic insufferable devious malicious bozo who is only truly intelligent when it comes to science, which makes the writing even more incredible because as much as you dislike him you can’t help but feel compelled to watch.
Never really disliked him.
For someone only intelligent about science he sure got the upper hand on quite a few folks lol.
Jessie would be dead about 3 times over if not for Walt.
@@marvymarv959 yeah let me amend that statement, he is intelligent about science AND manipulation/setting traps.
He’s probably the smartest human in the show and science is kind of an after thought by the end of the
@@willbyrn5920 intelligence is not so simple. Gus in comparison is far more intelligent in areas where Walt is just incompetent. Some one can be very intelligent with certain aspects of life, and less so in others.
@@Etticos.True. Just turns out in this case Walt gets the better of him, pretty easily too
I think them saying Walt was stupid for talking back to Gus in the desert misses the point...which is, Gus was gonna threaten to kill Walt's family no matter what Walt did or said. Gus' threats weren't the result of Walt being disrespectful, those threats were the plan all along. The reason the show has Walt getting cocky and arrogant instead of remaining quiet is because the show constantly builds layer on top of layer on the character that is Walter White. As an audience we're meant to keep seeing moments of Walt's ego and arrogance coming through, and it plays a definite role in the events of the rest of the series.
No. That ain't it. They really believe that Gus is giving Walt an out. Walt, on the other hand, absolutely believes that Gus will kill him and his family once his usefulness ends. There is no out. So, he tries to bluff a strong hand.
Their opinion is entirely influenced by the fact that they believe Gus at his word.
@@thedarkemissary - I think it's more about them thinking Gus would have stopped at "You are fired" had Walt not gotten arrogant and cocky. Clearly, though, that wouldn't have been the case since Gus had already decided he needed to take care of Hank since Walt "failed" at controlling his brother-in-law. Gus' threats against Walt's family was to guarantee he didn't warn Hank in any way or tell Hank about Gus.
Walt is not an idiot. He makes dumb choices because of his ego but he's the smartest man in any room. It's also sort of the point of the show. He gets in trouble because he wants to be taken seriously and he defeats his enemies because they don't take him seriously.
Intelligence has many different forms, and Walt is definitely stupid in some ways, and smart in others. It takes a kind of stupidity to let his ego get in the way of his own original goals and morals for the sake of his pride, and it takes an intelligence to give into his pride and still find a way to survive the consequences.
Walt is definitely a genius but he has major blind spots.
@@backinmydaycartoons7957Exactly. He's incredibly book smart, but lacking in street smarts. He's radically socially inept, and that paired with his inflated ego are the combination that lead to ruin. I think too many viewers downplay his flaws and aggrandize him, which I've always believed antithetical to the purpose of the story. There's a reason he's likened to Ozymandias... It's what makes the character so compelling.
Yes and he makes dumb choices because he is panicked and scared. Throughout the entirety of S4 Walt is on the brink of death largely as a result of what happened at the end of S3. During this whole season Walt is a cornered animal making rash decisions in attempt at survival. His ego isn't really the largest factor in his decision making this season.
Is it just me or are these two the ones becoming insufferable with their hot takes on Walt only not knowing all that’s coming up and acting like they do? While they cheer on other characters doing bad shit too.
Hating on Walter (which is understandable) while asking to put a hit on Ted lol
Lol right. They show their hypocritical sides with this show.
Ted sucks so much cmon
@@paulmitchell2030 I mean the show is pretty good at making you root for drug lords. I don't think this mindset for a fictional show is too bad.
@@paulmitchell2030 They literally said they didn't want him to die. It was pretty obvious they were joking around with the hit thing.
How is this hypocritical? 🤔
One of the best episodes of the series AND of television.
Hector "Macho" Camacho was a professional boxer who won championships in three different weight classes. He was one of those guys who was such a big deal while he was happening that even us people not into sports (much less boxing) heard his name regularly. He died at 50 back in '12.
Johnny Tapia would of made more sense since he was from NM
@@SouLAssassin_ Nah, that would have been WAY too obscure of a reference outside of jock-nerd circles.
"Macho Camacho" may not have had the same kind of brand familiarity as Ali or Tyson for Xoomers and Xennials but it was much more recognizable than whoever that is.
Your name would have left too many people in a 2011/2012 audience as lost as Maple and Ariana were here.
Also, and this is just a pet-peeve, but it's "would have", which contracts into "would've", and not "would of".
Man... Every since season 2 episode 12 you two have just been unreasonably hating on walter for the worst reasons. Yes walt is not a good guy, he's Honestly horrible and pure evil and yall will really understand how evil he's become in season 5 but you two believe walt is just some idiot who randomly ruin things with his ego and pride. Like you said walt is very intelligent but his ego and pride is what's causing him to make these decisions you find stupid like the ladies at the laundry, him constantly beefing with tyrus and mike and unintentionally giving hank more motivation to continue the Heisenberg case but those things are purely out of his growing ego but it's not just stupidity and the way yall talk about those things feels like that what you want us to think especially Arianna but decisions such as walt letting jane die is a calculated, complicated and smart move you two just brushed over as a irredeemable action, which isn't a bad opinion to have, but that's the problem. yall simply don't understand the writing of walts character and the reasons why he does things related to life or death. If Walt had save jane multiple things could've happen, she would've seen walt in the house and most likely would rat his true identity out, she could move with jesse to wherever the hell they were going to go and blow all their money in their arms and eventually overdose on heroin and you're lying to yourself if you don't believe that. A horrible outcome would've happened to both of them and walt had to make the bad decision in quick time. Walt is reasonably mad at jesse in 4x9 because he literally did sign his death warrant all the way back in 3x12 when Jesse went out his way to kill those gangbangers on his own against gus's orders and walt had to save him resulting to walt and jesse having to kill gale and the war between walt and Gus while gus is at war with the cartel that started all because of jesse not keeping Peace and walt having to save him it makes perfect sense why Walt is saying and doing (mostly) everything he's doing and yall have so much spite and hatred for walt that you're blinded by the reasons of why he's doing these things that label "stupid". It's so annoying when yall just state things that doesn't make sense at all like walt being dumb for saying what gus will do to him. Yeah it's ballsy to say that in your position but he knows that it'll be a warning instead of a elimination because like he said he would already be dead so he has the ground to say that no matter how crazy it is because of his ego but it's not stupidity at all. You have some good points about walts pride and ego taking over but you completely miss the point that walt is being controlled by his ego and pride and not allowing himself to be under gus's boot and stay scared for his last moments working with gus so he uses anything that could help him with trying to get jesse to kill gus multiple times so the very thing that happens in this episode with not only walt being in danger but now his whole family. I can't really go in depth because I've seen this show and know exactly what happens so I'll let you just watch the show but please just have a better understanding on walts character not just being some crazy dumb lunatic but someone who has the intelligence of defeating someone like gus but allows his pride and ego to manifest into a horrible person that lies, manipulates and commits the worst crimes to succeed in his goal which will show in the next two episodes and the rest of the show that makes so much sense for us to understand walts character which you two clearly don't understand at all in this season. Yall do have great opinions and takes on basically anything else but for some odd reason you don't understand Walter White at all he's not this perfect crime lord like gus he is a man who submits to his own terrible temptations of becoming someone in his life in the worst way possible fuelled by his pride and ego yall are still entertaining and i cant for the other episodes but yall finish yall need to watch or even react to analysis videos on walter white because yall quite literally dissecting his character the wrong way and its comes off annoying as FUCK. I mean zero intentions to hate on yall cuz yall are really entertaining and I fucking hate Walter White (in the best way possible) and i know i didn't properly explain walts character but i hope you'll get a better understanding somehow, someway of walt. Have a great rest of your time all love here 👍🏾♥️
"because you weren't honest"
??? What????
I know. Makes no sense. Women and accountability are like oil and water
"Walt are you in danger?"
"I"m not in danger Skylar, I AM the danger."
"Don't worry, the family is safe."
He lied REPEATEDLY about the danger they were in. He was dropping money left and right over trivial things (before they had a business to clean it). He WASNT honest.
@@Athasin Ah in that case it makes sense to give away all the family money to the guy she had an affair with and not to mention a single thing to the guy who made that money lol.. Big brain logic.
These guys are INSUFFERABLE! Newsflash in case you weren’t my reacting. The reason ANY of this is happening is because Walt was selfless saving Jesse’s impulsive trigger happy ass from Gus’s two guys. That is the reason Gus made it his agenda to have Walt dead and use Jesse to do it.
Ted is one of those characters you hate because you know they exist in real life
What are they on about? Blaming Walt for not being “honest” when it was skyler who did all of this behind his back and not being honest… they go further and saying it was somehow his fault for buying the car wash like if he could somehow see what was gonna happen in the future and should of saved the money. walt and skyler were gonna buy a business regardless cuz at the time that was the best idea, they didn’t know what would happen in the future. they are so blinded by hating walt that is quite honestly makes what would be a amazing reaction to a amazing show to something much less
Well if Walt didn’t start being a criminal 😅none of this would be happening so yeah it is his ultimate fault
@@Timshot100 that doesn’t change anything, she still would of cooked the books, Walt being a criminal had nothing to do with her actions, she did this for her own interests
He let her think that the IRS was their biggest threat. Quit trying to morally excuse his actions by trying to make hers sound worse. That's what all the incels do.
@@elbruces what are u talking about? Again how is that his fault? 1 he didn’t know about the IRS thing and 2 again it was HER actions that got her there in that place. No one is excusing his actions its just pretty annoying having them complain about Walter 24/7 so chill with the insults
@@elbruces also skyler isnt stupid, she knows damn well there were bigger threats than the IRS… Walter though his actions has made that very clear even if he tries to hide it. This was just Skyler on her own covering her ass (along with walt) because of something she did.
Me, after watching this episode: "... Someone cooked here."
Okay they LOST me blaming skyler spending WALTS money to pay off teds taxes on Walt, Skyler first off all was being so adamant and insufferable about using Walt’s money in the first place, then works for this guy and fucks him then gets caught in a whole separate crime on her own with teds company and resorts to Walt’s drug money to clear that up without telling Walt anything about that situation but somehow skyler is not at all at fault 😭
if ted got busted, skylar and likely walt too were going down
@@MagnificotheGreatSure, but the only reason this is an issue is because Skylar decided to cook the books for Ted of her own choice. It was her own mistake that put her in that position, it just came to a head at the worst time possible.
@@MagnificotheGreatYou’re still missing the point lol. This whole situation is still on Skyler. Not Walt’s fault she was cooking books for her boss whose she’s attracted to. Blaming Walt for that is foolish.
@@DKZK21 She prolly wouldnt have spent that if Walt was honest about the danger the family was in. Im not saying Skylars blameless but idt bb fans giver her enough credit.
@@treyfromtheland3385 It's not about blame, im saying it was in walts benefit. Ted situation was most definitely Skylars fuck up. Most of this seasons biggest conflicts is due to both of them keeping secrets.
Not my own observation, but something worth mentioning:
Skylar begging with Walter that she did it for the family flipped Walt's narrative on himself, and for a brief second Walter gets to experience what he did to his family this entire time.
also the crawl hole where he’s laying down in, looks like a coffin ⚰️
Oh my god, they blame Walt for EVERYTHING. If someone else sneezes miles away they would be like "that's Walt's fault". It's the most bizarre shit.
She yaps louder than walt screams lol
Walt getting tased has such Malcolm in the Middle comedic vibes to it.
lol true
Also, how is the money being gone the fault of Walt "not being honest"? lol...How does Walt not being honest play a role in Skyler making the decision to give the money to Ted?
Because skylar did not know that things are dire and they need this mountain of unusable and basically unlaunder-able money. For her, it is just this pile of cash that will be replaced in a few weeks.
@@mappes1 - But Walt didn't know how dire things were until after Skyler gave the money to Ted. He never had the chance to tell her. And neither Skyler or Saul bothered to talk to Walt first before giving the money to Ted. There's no criticism of that, though...
@@endorphinzz walt was anticipating being killed by gus all the time and played "everything is under cobtrol" with skyler, even got angry when she seriously questioned it ("i am the one who knocks"). So no, she had no grasp on the situation because walt refused to tell her how it was in truth.
I meam he even tried to kill gus multiple times because he felt his life was tjreatened. And killed gale because if it in the first place.
@@mappes1 - Um, did Skyler tell Walt about the possible IRS trouble they would be in thanks to Ted's cooking the books?...Did I miss that episode? Or did she keep it secret from Walt--only to then take like half their money and give it to Ted without telling Walt she was going to do so? But again, Walt gets blamed and Skyler gets a pass.
Forget Heisenberg. Walt has become The Joker.
It’s kind of silly how stupid they think walt is. “Why do you keep saying things like you have the power?” He literally holds all the power lol at this point lol.
You obviously didnr watch the full reaction, they straight out said they dont think hes dumb but frustrated in his actions. Walt is very intelligent but doesn't have the street smarts
Yeah, his ego shattering to the point he's trauma-laughing/dissociating in the crawlspace is the kind of 4D chess move a powerful man makes.
@@BH-wh2vo that’s not what I’m saying. How do you think that’s a 4D chess move? He’s obviously in distress as literally any human would be in that situation. He acts accordingly though. Like I said it’s kind of silly to look back on this and think he’s genuinely stupid/ not intelligent after the following events.
Did you watch the same episode I did? Walt doesn't hold any power there.
@@elbruces the events of the show say very differently.
How does Walt’s dialogue trigger you both so much, lmao grow up
They just generally have a problem with white men. Watch their shogun reaction, they hate anjin too immediately for being a white man. 😂 They are pretty simple minded so have to fall back on their rigid woke worldview to know what to think.
Walt is evil personified, he isn't meant to be defended or admired unless you're an edgy child. He's literally a sociopathic lying manipulator. You also seem triggered by their reaction lol
Excuse me that’s the point n Dramatic Shows if you are not igniting this type of interest in the characters the show is doomed
That scream from Walter is incredible
The comedic duo of Lavell Crawford and Bill Burr in the series is so underrated.
They always cracked me up when they appeared.
"plEEase just hear me out plEEAAASE 🤓"
💀
*AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*
I fucked Ted.
I laugh so hard everytime I watch this episode and Ted eats it. This show is so awesome when it comes to dark humor.
And Walt in the crawl space laughing is one of the best moments of the show.
You guys missed a HUGE line during the desert scene. Gus Isnt letting Walt go. He literally says Jesse wont let him kill Walt FOR NOW. im not a Walt stan. ive hated Walt since season 1 when he denied Gretchen and Elliots money. but to say he is doing it to himself fully is just wrong factually. Gus said to his face he is going to murder him as soon as he is allowed to and can get away with it. Gus has been trying to kill walt since before the end of last season. I do love the reactions though. yall have some unique ones. even if i dont agree with everything i do side with yall on a lot.
There is exactly one main character that is loveable from episode 1 to the finale. Walt...Jr.
Walt feels stuck. He probably assumes he'll be killed regardless, so he tries to hold on to some semblance of power, no matter what's staring him in the face. He feels he's clinging on to life, and yes he acts irrationally, but this is all happening quite quickly. Walt also saved Jesse's life in his own eyes, so I guess he feels he's owed something.
He’s also not wrong. Jesse didn’t turn on Walt
22:15 yes the audacity to ask the man whose life you saved (& by doing so put you in the position you’re in) to not contribute to your death. 🤦🏼♂️
What a performance from Bryan Cranston. That laugh felt **real**
It was and Cranstons acting is on showcase here because that laughing could have been cringe but every breathe felt so authentic that he literally lost his mind
I don’t even know if I’ll finish the reaction series after this one….
3:08 I'm guessing you've been told already, but just in case, Hector "Macho" Camacho was a famous boxing champion in the 80s and 90s. He was murdered roughly 10 years ago.
Reactions are great, but it seems in this series, more often than not, they become discussions that take away from the content. It becomes difficult to watch at times. Have you considered adding pauses for discussions in this series? Thanks for the great videos, keep it up :)
This right here was exactly when my stress levels went off the roof when watching this show
girls fixate on walt being terrible but skyler sucks hard too
It's funny how they have completely absorbed Skylar of any wrongdoing with cheating....and being pulled into Teds' problems
Y'all just keep getting more and more off with your takes, it's kinda wild to watch. Still entertaining tho!
Y'all missed the mark on Walt this episode by a country mile lol
Skylar would've gave that money to Ted no matter what. She cooked the books so the money was cooked the moment she did that. So Walter not being quote un quote honest means nothing.
If you had a brother-in-law that you loved dearly wouldn't you try to do everything you could to save their life?
By that logic Walt should have come clean and helped Hank nail the entire operation regardless of the cost to himself. Walt is only interested in protecting the "normalcy" of his life. He doesn't want his personal or professional lives to interact at all
@@Mayhem242The funniest thing is that Jesse did suggest that solution back at the end of Season 3, and Walt’s reason for not doing so was “production can’t stop. The cook must go on.”
@@Mayhem242No. At some point, maybe the fundraiser, Walt realizes that coming clean to Hank would ensure his death, not prevent it.
Especially after Hank almost dies, that cements the notion that telling Hank the truth wouldn't help at all.
@@Mayhem242you think using the vacuum man would be normalcy for Walt?
Lol their rage at Ted is satisfying and humorous
Very relatable too. He's infuriating
Honestly I think it’s you two who have become “insufferable”. The irony of you two calling anyone else an idiot while you’ve missed nearly every important detail for seasons now due to constant yelling over scenes and a almost comical and nonsensical blind rage for Walt is hilarious.
I’ve genuinely tried my best to watch this along with you, but even the perfection that is Breaking Bad can’t get me through another one of these miserable videos.
Walt's excuse throughout is "I was doing it for my family"
Now Skyler is rolling out that same excuse to excuse her actions. She isn't quite prepared to murder anyone (or order a murder) yet but she's long since crossed the line in to justifying criminal acts. Money laundering etc... and she's been lying to Hank & Marie since early season 3 and her justification is the exact same justification that Walt is using - "I'm doing it for my family"
Top 3 episodes of breaking bad without doubt, might even be number 1
11:24 “he’s never had to struggle a day in his life” 🤦🏼♂️
Not to be rude but have you ever been responsible to employees Ariana? How you going to dismiss Ted like that?
She says a lot of stuff like this.
This is my favorite episode of the show. So much incredible acting from everyone
I can’t watch these two anymore they’re both dense. Arianna constantly trying to play the moral high ground is hilarious
I find myself watching old Maple videos because Arianna has OCD of the mouth, constantly yapping over important dialog. Reiterating the same point over and over.
Crazy that people hate Skyler more than Walt. 💀
I dunno, if you ask me, the worst part of Skylar giving Ted Walt’s money, was the fact that she gave Ted Walt’s money lol
Walt's biggest enemy wasn't gus it was skylar
The last scene... Bryan Cranstons and Anna Gunns acting.. LITERALLY hauntingly good.
Skyler should have involved walt in deciding to give ted money that walt earned. Also. Its not just on walt. Hold Skysenberg accountable.
So it's walts fault his wife gave another man 600k? Lol
Season 4: “Someone cooked here”
ive had like 10-15 blood transfusions. I always felt soo much better afterwards. less out of breath and more energy.
This episode is engraved in my mind from the first time I saw it as a teenager, over a decade ago. Those final minutes, damn.
These two have completely miss the entire point of the show. I don't understand the hate towards Walt, his the greatest writen character in television history.
One of the best scenes in TV history, this is when Walt really becomes Heisenberg.
I’m personally loving them underestimating Walter so much, the next reactions are gonna be amazing
6:35 Walt killed people to save jesse from the consequences of Jesse seeking revenge.
Jesse wouldn’t kill gus to save Walt from the consequences of Walt having to save Jesse. 🤔
This is the moment that started the moment jokes.
walt talks back to gus because he has balls and he is smart enough to know that no matter what he says to gus it will not influence gus about whether he will kill walt or not.
I love hearing them talk about how gross and awful Walt is for 2 seasons straight while soon suggesting that Skylar get Saul to murder Ted. Quite curious.
The last few moments of this episode and 'One Minute' (s3e7) are probably my 2 favorites of the whole series!
Those are extremely strong picks
They managed to make walter the problem for skyler giving the money to ted because "he is not honest" and they also managed to forget that gus threatened to kill a baby and they are still calling him daddy because he is sooo good at being a bad guy ........ so i am expecting in episode 13 for you girls to call walter a "daddy" because he managed to win against gus and become the big bad guy that you want him to be ..... you will clearly love him in season 5 because he is so genius and manipulative and bad ..... you clearly wouldn't hate him for the same reason you love gus .. you clearly wouldn't be hypocrites when walt shows what he is capable of 🤔🙄
I don't know if you saw season 5, but Walt still pretends to be the good guy who does everything for the family until the very last episode. And that's an aspect of Walt they don't like (amongst the many, lol).
@arcticfrond8342 what are you talking about ? he was full haisenberg in the first 8 episodes of season 5 ... he was a genius and a master manipulator and savage and badass and that is why they love gus ... so if they hate on him for the same reason they love gus, then that just called hypocrisy
@@Dahmen-ll8cd Again, it's the pretense they dislike. He plays the victim to Skyler's “betrayal” ("I forgive you"), he pretends to be morally upset about the boy Todd kills, he pretends to care about Jesse's relationship with Andrea, etc.
But who knows, maybe they'll love him.
@arcticfrond8342 Yes, he pretended that he was upset about the boy being killed, and he pretended that he cared about Jesse's relationship with Andrea, but isn't that called manipulation ? that what they want him to be ( the big bad guy he thinks he is ), and they will get what they want
@@Dahmen-ll8cdHe's definitely very smart, but absolutely not a "master manipulator". One of his major character flaws is his glaring social ineptitude. Which, when paired with his ego, is constantly landing he and his family in hot water. Most people love Gus because he knows he's not the good guy; he has no moral duplicity. Walter does badass things, but he remains morally hypocritical up until the very end of the show, when he finally admits as much himself, and by which point he's already undergone his own metamorphosis. To deny Walter's flaws is to deny the crux of the character and what ultimately makes him the most intriguing aspect of the show imo. That internal struggle is necessary for his character arc. I think the girls will certainly appreciate his character by the end of the series, but for reasons other than simply being a "badass", because that's never what it was about.
