this commercial kind of makes me feel bad for the guy who got brain damage, but kind of makes me feel neutral since texting and driving is dangerous...but most of all, it makes me think of Walt Jr

He was actually a passenger, and he was pronounced dead at the scene multiple times. It's a pretty amazing recovery.

Also, listening to him and Walt, Jr., speak, definitely makes me LOL at all the people who sound like that without cerebral palsy or traumatic brain injuries.

Admittedly, there was a loud conversation that started right beside me at about that point so I may have missed some details, but did they say she had only been putting the money away for 3 months? She's mentioned multiple times since they started the car wash that Walt was bringing in more than she could launder. For all we know, there has been a backlog of cash that started while he was still working for Gus.

We were also expecting the phone in the back of the toilet to ring when we saw Hank go into the bathroom. I think I would have liked that better than him finding the book, but either way leads to what we all knew was coming. Now it just comes down to what does Hank do about it and how many people go down in the last 8 episodes.

The reason he started cooking again was because he lost a lot of money from the previous season and had to 'start over'. Reason why he went on and said 'we can afford it again' in the bathroom scene before Skylar went ape shit to get her children out of the house. Remember, he actually didn't work for Gus very long before he went ahead and just killed him. I mean what, all of season 1 to 4 was just a year?

As for the time period, there was the conversation with Marie and Skylar about how they had the kids for almost three months so it gives you the time frame in the last episode.

poster credits Hector Salamanca's death as a Wp or wheelchair pipe bomb, yet does not add his own death to the total death on the bottom. There are four accounts of To instead they credit only three. And really it should be death by suicide so that shouldn't be just one, but two.

I don't think the toilet phone ringing would do it. Why would Hank pry? Now, if Marie had found a suspicious phone ringing, you can be damn sure she'd stop at nothing to learn the entire story about it. But Hank? No, he'd just chalk it up to Walter doing some more shady husband shit, but after the Skylar/Ted situation he'd probably figure "more power to him". I just don't see anything coming of that.

No, the book was the best way. And I actually really liked the way they edited in the "You got me" from Walter, calling back that earlier discussion from last season. That, followed by Hank's look, made it awesome even though I knew what was coming as soon as Hank entered that bathroom.

Please you two... The cell phone would be off. Don't blame it on something stupid that "Walt's slipping" or something stupid like that again about him "forgetting to do something". Its pretty clear that once Walt killed the 10 guys in prison that he pretty much wised up for 3 months and was clear sailing without incident otherwise they wouldn't have made a 2 min montage for shortening the time frame.


look, its simple...

Hank shits in toilet...
toilet backs up...
he opens the top to fix it and finds cell phone in a baggy...
gets interested...
turns it on...
see's the cell number OR reads a text message from pinkman OR whatever have you as your discovery setup for the next season...


And honestly, now that I think about it. It wouldn't have worked anyhow since he only hid the 2nd cell phone from Skylar so she wouldn't discover about the meth business... now that she's completely (well 90%) in the loop, its completely moot that the cell phone would be in the toilet now.

he didn't seem to bat an eye that there was a dead Mike in a trunk

there's going to be a showdown between him and Jesse, probably

I donno, he seems like that diehard loyal type who will follow someone to the letter. I mean he did kill that kid since both Jesse and Walt made it absolutely clear that no one other than them should know about the train job. Did it without a flinch of emotion.

I do agree that there might be some showdown with Todd and Jesse but since Jesse has been out of the game entirely, not sure how they'll write him back in. Interested to see how they'll do that for sure.

I'm kinda interested to see what happens with his business relations with Lydia and the other drug leader, plus if the Aryan brotherhood associated with Todd's Uncle will pull a move.

Shit, a part of me kinda wants to see Walt lie about quitting the meth business and start to take over Latin and South America; goes all guns blazing godfather style. Although, maybe not have a nose full of meth and going on a shooting rampage in a large mansion...

I think those numbers are very off though Jbaz. Do you really think he is paying Saul 50k every single time he cooks? I know Mike brought it up after the first cook, but its more likely that they pay Saul that every month, and it just happened to be after that cook. Ditto for the payments to the pest control.

Sal gets 5% cut from profit. The figures are straight out of episode 3... 39 mins in.

And yes, I do believe they pay the lawyer for each cook cause that's what they did when Walt was working for Gus.

would the overly cautious Walt really keep that book from Gil. Not only keep it, but take it with him after he moves back in with Skylar? So, super paranoid and always thinking ahead Walt, took a book that could implicate him from his bachelor pad to his house with Skylar that he knew Hank would visit?

Seems careless and out of character. Also, haven't read the other pages, but for 4.5 years we've been told that every minor decision or action leads to shit. every minor loose end causes an issue. So we are supposed to believe that Walt had these 10 min killed and then its all fine. We get a nice little fast forward montage. The aryan's that killed all the prisoners don't want more money, the guys in distribution don't want more money. Their family doesn't try and talk etc.

Over all, good episode, really looking forward to next season. The cancer is obviously back. Will Hank turn Walt in? Wouldn't that implicate Hank? He built his career on Heisenberg and Fring, now he has to say his Bro-in-law was Heisenberg. Makes Hank look inept or at worst, in on it....just rambling thoughts.

Not necessarily. First episode skips a year to his 52nd bday with him having hair and looking somewhat healthy, not someone whose sick and would be back on chemo. They do make a lot of foreshadowing, but it could be as simple as a reference back to his humanity and being close to death; reflecting on if all his decisions and effort was worth it. Basically if he had regrets.

And yeah, the book is a bit of a stretch, but I'll still buy it. Perhaps Walt just kept it and didn't realize that Gale left a note on the title page. I had a teach gift me a book and only realized it 2 years later that she wrote a personal message on chapter 1 when I finally got around to read it... lol

^i didn't even think about the not looking in the book, you're right. I assumed the cancer was back and him having the hair and stuff was just he is on the run and not getting treatment/fighting it. I guess we'll find out in a year

Also, just to note, the still shot that TreeTwista10 has found is NOT from the video. Its a promo still and has been photoshoped (surprise!). Many other people have came to the same conclusion on other review websites. Everything in the video only shows only 20's and 50's. Don't believe me? Then watch the video again. 33 mins in.

He's obviously not on chemo in the flash forward. He is popping pills of some kind though. I think the cancer is back and he's either not treating it and popping pills to manage the symptoms, or he's trying some sort of pill treatment. I'm thinking it's the former.

The entire reason the money is in a pile in a storage unit is because it can't be laundered through the car wash

Yeah, then he could put up billboards all around the SW with his face and the line "If you're having cash problems I feel bad for you son. I own 99 washes and a bitch runs one."

And maybe throw in a smiling cartoon car getting washed because that seems to be pretty standard.
