    What I love the most about this is that Mike waited till the two of them pretty much confessed in front of him before killing them. If he had just wanted them dead, he could have done it in a much simpler manner where he wouldn't have risked getting shot but he wanted to be absolutely sure that he was right before killing them.

    • @Francklyynnnn
      @Francklyynnnn Год назад +83

      It wasn't about making sure he was right. Mike knew. He just wanted to let them know that their deaths are a punishment and a consequence for what they did to his son. It's about making them regtet everything that happened as much as he does when they see his gun pointed at him. The "drunk" ramblings were his manifesto

    • @giantWario
      @giantWario Год назад +26

      @@Francklyynnnn Mike didn't know they did it. Mike thought they did it. He thought right of course but thinking is not proof. If all he wanted was to make sure they knew this was for Matty, he would have taken them out with a shot in the back of the head while they were still in their cruiser. After all, at that point, he had already given them his ''manifesto''.
      But no, he, once again, waited till they outright confessed in front of him. Which was incredibly dangerous by the way, Mike almost died because he wanted to hear them confess.
      And by the way, I think you really don't understand Mike's character if you think other people recognizing and/or understanding his actions is at all important to him. Even without the evidence in the show that a confession is what he was after, Mike wanting to give a ''manifesto'' and to gloat in front of his son's killer is not what Mike does at all. When Mike went after Hector, he certainly didn't care that Hector and his family would never know who took him out. Mike is not some pathetic narcissist who gives out a ''manifesto''.

      Worth keeping in mind, they clearly didn't intend to kill him from the start, they picked him up to see what he knew, and then decided to kill him when he said he knew they killed his son and he was going to prove it. They probably would have let him go if he hadn't added "and I'm going to prove it.". Last thing a corrupt cop wants is a dead body, cover story or not.

      Mike's not stupid enough to fall for that line.
      They turned around and he had a gun pointed at them. They could have a legit case for self defense.
      Now, Mike might be able to counter it with "he did have a gun in his hand and I did hear him outlining how he was going to kill me", but that's not the case you just made.
      Your case is solely "they shot first." You pull a gun on somebody and they shoot at you? They are the defending party, not you who initiated the aggression.
      Mike would know this. He would know he set the whole thing up. He would know he put them in a situation where they would have to shoot him. He is smart. He was a cop. He would not be fooled.

Vince Gilligan and Peter specifically didn't use de-aging CGI with this show too, they personally don't like it and wanted a natural feel-on top of the fact the budget simply didn't allow for it like say The Irishman; even with de-aging, a man pushing 80yrs old isn't physically pulling off what he was doing at 40-50yrs old, he isn't going to sound like he did, at a certain point de-aging isn't convincing.

    People are talking a lot about Mike's trap, but the thing I notice is how he was also looking for a reason to not have to go through with it. For example, if they'd said to Mike "you've got it all wrong, we didn't kill Matty", he almost certainly would have listened. But rather than deny it, they took him to Remote Location to finish him off. And even then, he didn't pull the trigger first; he waited until after one of them shot.
    Mike wanted to be wrong about them, and he wanted there to be some other way to deal with them.

    • @markdelmar-sn8wd

      the problem is that he knew these guys very well, he knew what they were up to on the job, and perhaps was familiar with their tactics on the job which no doubt involved regularly assaulting suspects, planting evidence and stitching people up generally. he was also in on the department corruption and they knew it. so when he said they did it, they knew that they had been totally rumbled. no evidence was required. but they also realised he could have proven that they were the guilty ones, if done by the book. so murder was immediately on the cards, and mike had come prepared only for that outcome, knowing without a doubt what they would do. that would be my take on it.

A person with this disorder is unable to non-verbally perceive others' emotions in social situations, limiting normal social interactions.

      @@Freshbrood I suspect by the time of Breaking Bad he isn't quite as firm with his morals. If I remember correctly he didn't have a problem with Gus's dealers killing Tomas, who while being in the game was still a child.

      @@andrewmartinez7559 How many times did Mike try to warn Werner to keep his mouth shut and keep things under wraps? Mike was just the trigger man but he did not enjoy that at all and at that point he had no choice. Werner got himself killed, and if Mike didn't do it Gus would use somebody else to take them both out. Mike wasn't sadistic or cruel and even showed compassion in giving him time to take a moment and not see it coming.

    The taller cop looks like Alec Baldwin as he tries to crawl away.

      ditto. strange camera/ lighting quirk. Baldwin coincidentally would play the same role blindfolded without effort.
