What I found interesting about the restaurant scene with Todd, his Uncle Jack and the other member of their group was when Uncle Jack compared Todd jumping off the train to the movie Hooper with Burt Reynolds. The other guy said that it wasn't the same because it was a helicopter and Uncle Jack dismisses him. There is some obvious animosity between them. Todd has on several occasions had to tell Uncle Jack to be quiet when he made derisive comments to Walt or Lydia. On the way out to their truck Todd and the other guy are laughing and rough-housing with each other.
I think Uncle Jack's days are numbered.

The first few minutes of the next episode should tell us Uncle Jack's fate.
I kind of like him - he looks like an evil, mirror-universe version of Christopher Lloyd (circa 1980s).
Vince Gilligan was either going for extreme, real-life police realism in that ending shootout, or it was a hat tip to The A-Team. A whole lot of lead flying, but no evidence of so much as a hair being clipped.

Are Uncle Jack and his crew Aryan Nation ex-con guys? I have never heard the word Aryan used on BB but over at Slate the commentators are calling Jack+crew Aryan (nation)
