@@scoopydaniels8908 "Leniency" is the wrong word here. Tax "evasion" is a crime. Which is when you purposely don't pay your taxes. If you made a mistake filling out your tax forms, this doesn't rise to the level of "evasion". It's not a criminal offense. However, you will be ordered to pay the unpaid taxes due, along with an additional penalty on top of it. In general, certain laws are not only tied to actions, but also tied to a "state of mind". If you lack that state of mind, the offense is considered drastically different. The easiest example can be seen by someone shooting a gun, and hitting no one. If you pointed it at someone, declared, "I'm going to kill you", and missed. This is attempted murder. If you pick up the gun and fire it by accident, you will only be charged with unlawful discharge of a firearm.

The fact that still tried to blackmail her , his neck break was so satisfying
"All falling into place now" Her legs in the air and Ted pile driving.
Never let them know you're the smartest in the room
Fr, Skyler was the MVP of Walt's empire ever since she found out he was doing shady shit. She knew when to listen, what to do, how to manipulate Walt, how to play dumb and she doesn't have an ego to bruise.
Homegirl could've been a kingpin on her own without her empire falling apart
Everybody know you are not the smartest in the room
Never let them know how your line were written
@@dreck250huh
@@williambutcher7429 it was a tv show so it was scripted and not real
Skyler killed this.
Why? I get she is annoying sometimes but this is one of her best scenes
@@CheeseAndCrackers_ Yeah. I meant it positive.
@@outsidewithjames ohhhh, by bad
Scenes like this are why this is such a great show.

Anna?

@@HaveAGoodDayFk.Uthat's the actress name
“It’s like a calculator on a computer” 😊
She's the hero in BB. She saved what she could of her family and did everything for them.
Sanest person in the whole show.
no way, she's the worst.
She was an asshole to Walt. Who was only trying to help his family.
@@Wheresthelove7 YOU IDIOT, HAHAHAHA
@@Wheresthelove7he literally said verbatim that he only kept the business going because he liked the thrill of the crime. walter was a narcissistic asshole murderer who threw temper tantrums when he couldn’t get his way. let’s be clear-he didn’t get there trying to help his family.
It's like having a calculator on your computer😅😂
This is the moment Skyler White became your grandma.
Cracks me up every time! "Do you guys use that here?" 🤣
They also used quickie method to solve all number problems.
Quicken is an accounting program. A “quickie” in pretty universally known as a fast bout of sex. It seems you’re trying to reference being quick and using some “quick method” to do books.
@@trudykennedy2380 explaining it ruins all the fun.

so glad breaking bad shorts are popping up fr

What u Talking about
@@zrraiise1627 the guy skyler is talking to looks like walt
@@eeemli he looks absolutely nothing like him 💀
@@eeemli y’all must be kinda blind smh
@@blu7384 nah really? This dude thinks he does. 🤯
Skyler is vastly underappreciated.
i'm loving the captions, really paying attention to where they are placed
She’s honestly pretty good at being a criminal and knows how to play the system. And she was always trying to save other peoples lives.
She also lacks the pride in her work that Walter has. No way Walter would've allowed that man assume that he's anything less than the genius he is.
It's like having a calculator on the computer... 😂😂😂
She's such an amazing actor
But her character was such a bitch lol
Actress*
@@It_Is_The_Me it could be either one calm down Debbie
Skyler was just as gangster as Walt
Well, she kind of HAD TO become like that. After all, she was the wife of Heisenberg himself.
It’s like a reverse Erin Brokovitch
And still Ted goes and buys a Mercedez with hand wheel warmer in the middle of the desert
Skylar was unironically a phenomenal character. Her and walt deserve each other
Right? I dont get why She get so much hate, Marie on the other Hand...
@@AdamOwens135 I’m glad she cheated on walt he’s a literally psycho that put his whole family in danger when he could of had all his problems solved by Gretchen and Elliot. Walt is still a brilliant man but he has the ego of a child. Like you gotta realize how much meth ruins lives after breaking bad. They literally have Jessie, Jane, Wendy, and a bunch of other meth heads in the show to show you how much it ruins lives. Walt is responsible for changing thousands if not millions of peoples lives with how much meth he was giving to the Russians and Gus. Like Walt said at the end of the series. He did everything for himself because it was fun.
@@ilteschio8244No shut up whats wrong with Marie? She did that stealing shit for like 2 eps then shes nothing but helpful for Walt Skylar and especially Hank after his injury no matter how much of an asshole he is to her in that part. Then does the right things if you ask me after the truth about Walt comes out
@@AdamOwens135 high and mighty to a meth distributor is an average person anywhere on earth 😂 dude technically a terrorist, poisoning the masses, putting everyone who cared about him in extreme danger. Youd have to DIG to be Walter's level of lowlife.
I swear people like the decisive an intelligent even if they don't give a shit about what benefits anybody else.
"It's like having a calculator on your computer"
I don't care if its a show.
I died a little inside hearing that.
that's the point
I thought it was funny 😂
One of the best written sequences in the whole show
Shes that MOM you can't help but stare at every time you see her....
That's a fine pair of Norgate Cities you've got there MS. Quicken.
Everyone present :?????????
Your the creep that makes decent women feel bad about themselves cuz you are the pervert
Honestly this was one of the only times that Skyler was super smart and I really appreciated her in the series.
Skylar is honestly smart during the whole entire series. Just because she's against the protagonist doesn't mean she's a bad guy. She's trynna protect her kids from a murdering meth kingpin.
When I think of breaking bad, I think of this epic scene all the time. When I first watched this scene it honestly blew me away. The writers were spot on.
Anna should have gotten an oscar for this episode
The guy who plays the irs auditor is my next door neighbor, His name is Rob, he’s pretty cool.
Where you live then huh
@@hoodini.k8070 why would he dox himself and this man
His name is james picarus bro
His name is niga
Can I meet this man???
She has a pair of big qualifications
My trainning ...oughhhh
right Teddy ? 😂😂😂
orange, next question.
Skyler is one of the best characters in the show.
"It's like having a calculator on your computer!"
The ONLY correct follow-up question is "Sorry, how did you get this job?"
😂😂😂
Cleavage?
@@professornuke7562dude, tone down your perversion. You're being creepy and it's not your first comment either
This is the moment Skylar White demonstrated "just the right amount of dirty".
What a genius move from Skyler! Anna Gunn amazing in here
Yea its almost as if thats how the script was written wild right
Legends focus on Target
Sorry sir... ITS JUST IMPOSSIBLE!!!
As an accountant, I find Quicken to be a very efficient way to use my Apple IIC.
Fucking brilliant play by skyler. It’s not until rewatch that you’re like, “oh, right, Walt is a demon and Skyler is trying to live with it”
Skyler was just as cunning as Walter, if not more so. She would’ve kept Walt out of trouble if she’d been involved from the start. Wicked smart.
"How could I be overdrawn? I still have CHECKS!"
Anna was a doll back then. ♥️
Her eyes look great in this scene. Her EYES fellas I said EYES....... 👁👄👁 but the heavies tho
Skylar is a W character she just messed up with the Ted situation
She cheated . Real L energy
Skyler is a bitch, worst character
@@cam3032 was kinda trashy cheating but to be fair her husband turned into a murdering, lying drug kingpin so she’s probably one of the morally better characters in the series.
@@Cocksucker7117 that doesn't excuse cheating.
also by that time walt was not a murdering druglord
Its funny because Walt claims he does everything "for the family" but on second watch its clear it was to boost his own ego.
Meanwhile Skyler does all these things she hate to protect her children, because shes actually doing it for the family, not herself.
If Walt took a page from her book and learned to use other people's underestimation of him to his advantage he'd have been fine.
Funny enough FTX used quicken
This is the moment Skyler white yo became boobsenburg
Skyler is a great character. Just idiots hate her.
Oh she said right teddy? I thought I heard right daddy? 😂😂
That push-up is working flawlessly.
Well,she got two very big and convincing arguments...
Oh and my brotha please wake up , stop watching pointless fake TV shows that take your time and energy and focus off of improving your own life… The time your wasting watching these TV shows, RUclips videos, movies, playing video games, and watching sports entertainment, is time you will never get back in your life so please be smart with your time you have on this planet and don’t be a mindless sheep that consumes pointless entertainment, please use the time you do have to exercise and improve your own life and become financially successful and become a smarter higher consciousness spiritual human being, because these movies and TV show entertainment has no benefit to your life whatsoever it just wastes your time and energy …😊❤️
@@DMTEntity88 bro wtf
Skyler had the heavies
God I ain't heard quicken in a while, my dad used Quicken back in the 90s and early 2000s
Screw the IRS they know how much you owe and if you don't know you go to jail
The smartest person in the room lets everyone else think they are the smartest person in the room.
"Right, This is all falling into place now".....a man excepting his male coworker made a decision with his other head and not shaming him openly 😂
He’s an auditor for the IRS - he’s not an employee! - and seems to “accept” Ted hired Skyler for her looks.
@Trudy Kennedy I never said employee I said coworker and since you feel like you're educating me, let me take it upon myself to share some real facts:
The necessary between a colleague and a coworker is that, first, a colleague is a person in your agency with whom you work and who is largely equal to you, whereas a co-worker is a person in your agency with whom you don't necessarily directly work, and they may also be superior or lower to you in rank.
So I should have said "a male excepting another males decision" and then you wouldn't have been triggered to correct anyone lmfao 🤣 but I still feel like you would have tried
@@trollzyou9383 The irony of you reeeing like that while calling someone else triggered... All while being so superior to your target that you still failed to correct "excepting" and turn it into "accepting" as the person who triggered you so hard tried to tell you.
... While naming yourself a troll. 😂😂🤣
@Trudy Kennedy you really can't expect a take like that to come from someone intelligent
@@JP-sx7fq You’re my hero. How are we intelligent, able-to-think-critically, fact-finding types to get rid of such oxygen thieves? What, exactly, are our options?
This was such a great moment. She's such a good character.
Skyler haters are just plain wrong. Walt didn't deserve her.
He did deserve her, they are both terrible people in different ways
@@pippofranco879 But he did take her for granted as a criminal partner. If walt had just kept his head down and his ego in check, they would have kept all the millions and made some more .. The show would become pointless, but still...
@@pippofranco879how is she terrible?
Yes very true Walt as Walt deserved better than a dumb wife
@@janniboss9020 Walt deserved to die horribly and alone like he did. Dude is a murderer.
Using the old George Costanza "pleading ignorance" defense, never fails
No one manipulates a situation as good as Skylar, she’s slick asf
bet she's good at that #1 thing guys love😂
She's got a big pair of qualifications. That's why she's been hired...
Its like having a calculator on a computer 😂
Meanwhile Marie would be like “I didn’t pay taxes on that because I didn’t have to declare it.”
Eyes:👀⬇️⬆️⬇️⬆️
Congrats to the actor, she perfectly plays somebody acting like somebody else, managing 2 characters while being funny 😂
Somehow the auditor is the bad guy for assuming what they are implying
Lol he was sickened when the found out that she used Quicken for a company that size. FTX the crypto bank that failed and was worth up to 40 billion was using Quickbooks.
Skyler is literally the only rational thinking character throughout the whole show
Junior is right there but okay💀
No she aint lol shes a typical woman its all good when it benifits her til it dont then its an issue and her shit dont stink.
I mean. I rather call Saul, but that's just me
@@KingofdaNerds the baby never did anything or said anything wrong so she is the most rational
She is actually naturally gifted for sure.
She is such a good actress here this show is so well directed and so many points
