this video is definitely interesting. i was wondering why they zoomed in on the plant at the very end but couldn't remember if they referenced it before....then i forgot about the "gun spinning scene". but Brock wasn't poisoned right?
wtf what where u doing during the show
jessie tells walt on the end that brock was poison with a flower with berries on it , doctors say is common for kids to pick them up and eat them, but jessie or nobody said how brock got the flowers or if somebody gave it to him
a few minutes later they show the flower at walts house
you didnt put 2 & 2 together ?
Brock was poisoned with the Lily of the Valley plant. Jesse was under the impression that Walt fucked around and gave the kid the Rycin. Walt needed to get Jesse back on his side (after Gus did everything in his power in season 4 to separate the 2 of them, and plant seeds of doubt). This was Walt's way of making Jesse see the other side ... think that Gus or one of his guys did it ... considering that Gus had harmed children previously (season 3). Walt basically playing the role of "Why would I do it? What do I have to gain?" (the faux sympathy card to win him back - considering Walt himself is a father of 2).
Should be interesting to see what happens with the whole Rysin AND Lily of the Valley angles in season 5. My guess is Walt gets the fuck home and immediately disposes of that damn plant in his back yard, if he hadn't already done it previously (which he probably did). I still have a feeling someone followed Walt back to the parking garage at the end of the episode.
* My prediction is Gus' guy (the white guy who was driving him and Tyrus) who Gus told to "Wait here ..." (as he went inside Casa Tranquila) followed Walt back to the parkade at the end of the episode after the explosion took place. Hence viewers/podcasters noting it sounded like someone was breathing and/or taking pictures from below and at a distance as the scene was about to come to a close.
i also have the feeling that Mike is gonna plot revenge on Jesse when he gets better & gets out of Mexico since Gus is no longer alive.
I don't think Mike is that loyal to Gus on some avenge him after death shit...plus Jess came thru in Mexico big time...he won't be happy but I don't think he'll be a problem for Jess/Walt...I think he's more likely to be an ally if Walt decides he'll stay in the game or is forced back into it...the only way I can see Mike being a threat is if Gus had an unseen boss/partner which I doubt...I wouldn't even be surprised to see Walt/Jesse even asking for his services and he turns them down...fuckin w/ Gus maybe took its toll on him...I don't see him respecting Jess/Walt enough to risk his life any further working for/with them unless they give him a cut so huge he can't say no...Idk all this is speculation but I see him being an ally to them (or just not fuckin w/ them period) moreso than an enemy
Yeah I don't think he'd be a problem. He gained a lot of respect for Jesse over the short time Gus had him mentor Jesse. Jesse handled himself like a trooper. Smart, resourceful and unlike Walt he knew when to Shut the Fuck UP and tow the company line.
On the other hand I can not see Mike getting involved with Walt on a business level. Unlike Jesse I think Mike actually lost a lot of respect for Walt. Walt was a whining, complaining little bitch as far as Mike was concerned. I think that smack down he gave him at the bar was the last straw.
Good points. Yeah ... it's tough to say how Mike will return. We never got a full picture of how loyal he was to Gus. He did take a bullet for the team when he got blasted in the latter portion of season 4 in Mexico. He knows Jesse is the loyal type when you're on his good side. Mike has had the friction with Walt. Walt ordered the hit on Gale. Gus killed Victor. Walt planned the murder-suicide of Gus and Tyrus with Hector's assistance, etc.
i'm sure this has already been said but i just realized that Hector is the car assassin from Scarface.
Oh shit you right...oh shit I just noticed too that Walter played the father from Malcolm in the Middle...oh shit I just realized Gus was also in Do The Right Thing...!
i know. late pass like a mug.
Oh shit I just realized that's Dave Chappelle in your avatar...
Possibility...Chilean niggas...I forgot Gus won't Mexican
Good points.
I'm also keeping an eye out for Gus' guy ... the white dude who drove Gus and Tyrus to Casa Tranquila for the confrontation with Hector. Where did that guy go? Did he follow WALT back to the parkade after the murder-suicide explosion had happened? Was he the one in the parkade watching Jesse and Walt shake hands (hence people pointing out the alleged breathing / clicks of a camera)? Or ... will Mike be returning from Mexico with a score to settle, or will he align with Walt or Jesse individually or both?
Some dude on here a few weeks back swore gus was a fag , he was all happy about it
Hopefully we don't have to wait until June / July 2012 for season 5.
With it being the last season, it may be a little a little further off than that.
Yeah its the last season. But what they are going to do is split the 16 episode season into 2 parts like how the sopranos did. The thing that sucks about that is we gotta wait until 2013 to finish the fucking series.
The Best TV Character Deaths of 2011
The Breaking Bad Murder-Suicide Death Orgy of Vengeance
Was there a more talked-about single shot on television this year than the vision of Gus Fring — the apparently invincible, almost godlike drug king of Albuquerque (and, yeesh, maybe the entire contiguous American continent) — emerging from an exploded hospital room, straightening his tie, and then collapsing over dead, with half his face burnt away?
Breaking Bad showrunner Vince Gilligan recently told EW that that image had lived in his mind for months beforehand, and with hindsight, it became clear that the entire fourth season of Breaking Bad was a slow, steady buildup to that sequence.
What made Gus’ death so brilliant was that it was simultaneously inevitable and shocking.
Inevitable, because someone had to die in the showdown between Walter and Gus, and it’s hard to imagine that even a show as brilliantly twisted as Breaking Bad would kill off its main character with a whole season left to go. Unexpected, because the exact method of Gus’ death was so shocking. All season, we’d seen Gus visiting Héctor Salamanca at the old folks’ home, awaiting his simple vengeance — he wanted Héctor to look him in the eye. Héctor used to be a drug enforcer, but over the course of Breaking Bad we’ve seen him lose everything: his family, his friends in the cartel.
In the end, Héctor finally gave Gus what he wanted. He looked in his eyes — and hell followed with him. He rang his iconic bell, but no sound came out — the chair had been rigged with explosives. So Héctor died in a moment of triumph. Gus died knowing that his vengeance would never be complete — and, perhaps, knowing that Walter White had gotten the better of him. And as for Gus’ enforcer, Tyrus? We’re guessing he’s currently splayed all around the inside of Héctor‘s hospital room. A good old-fashioned death orgy: The perfect end to a perfect season of television.
