Breaking Bad -Last Season (spoilers for sure)

no evidence of so much as a hair being clipped.

Agent Gomez was hit.

[woodbutcher1963]

Either that or Hank’s partner(I can not remember his name-CRS kicking in) gets killed.

However, based on the phone call Hank made to Marie. I think you might be right.

Maybe in the end(based on prequels) Walt is coming back to kill Todd, his uncle and associates.

The other thing I still wonder about is that in the first episode of this season when Walt was buying the machine gun he was driving a Volvo with the NH “Live Free or Die” license plates. When he showed up at his house to retrieve the ricin, he was driving a different car. I wonder if they will show when he switched or if it was a mistake.

I am guessing Hank gets killed in the shootout. That last conversation he had with his wife was a giveaway. Also when Walt went to his old house I thought the neighbor lady was more in shock to see Walt than scared.

I wasn’t watching BB much when Brock was poisoned by Walt. Why did he do it?

[Semper911]

At the breakfast diner, the gunseller guy brings the other car with the machine gun in the trunk. He passed the keys to Walt in the bathroom. Walt switched from the NH Volvo and into the other car, evidently leaving the Volvo at the diner.

when Brock was poisoned by Walt. Why did he do it?

He was trying to turn Jesse away from Gus Fring. Gus had decided to kill Walt and he was having Jesse do all the cooking. So Walt had to make Jesse think that Gus poisoned Brock.

They only fence off your house if it has been seized by the DEA/IRS/US Marshal Services. They do not fence off your house if it just foreclosed by a bank or Fannie/Freddie.

The next episode is “Ozymandias”(A poem about empires falling). The one after that is called: Granite State(NH). The last episode is titled Falina.

A buddy of mine answered my question about the car switch. He drove up to the meeting in the Volvo(with NH plates) and left in the brown sedan with the machine gun in the truck.

Thanks Semper. That is why I actually like to watch each episode twice or wait until it is on ondemand do that I can stop and replay the important parts.

[Mr. K]

I THINK (and I am not sure if I remember it all correctly)

Walt has Saul’s guy lift the cigarettes from Jesse, then gets Jesse to think Gustavo Fring did it. He did this because he thinks Fring is going to bring Jesse over to his team and kill Walt.

But then we find out Bronk is not poisoned by Ricin- but by an extract of the plant “lily of the valley”. This is a little bit of a disconnect for me- They show Walts house at the end of that episode and show a Lilly of the Valley plant... but now they act like it was ricin... I dont know...

[Semper911]

I actually like to watch each episode twice

Same here -- at LEAST twice. It is amazing how much you pick up the second time around.

And watching multiple times gives even more appreciation for the details -- camera shots, music, acting, etc. Not many shows are worth watching more than once.

[ColdOne]

I remember now. I did see that episode. Thanks

The crystal blue persuasion scene? That did kick A.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

It sure looks hopeless for Hank and Gomey. I think Jesse is going to come through again though, just like in Mexico. He's sitting in Walt's Chrysler 300C SRT8, one of the fastest production cars currently on the market. He can't be sitting in it for no reason. I think Walt left the keys in the car. I think Jesse is going to slide over into the driver's seat, crank her up, back up to where Hank and Gomey are and tell them to get in, and then high-tail it out of there with no chance of the bad guys catching up.

With all the lead that was flying, nobody has yet been hit. That's why I don't think they're going to kill off Hank and Gomey.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I also think that at this point Walt is the captive of the redneck cartel. That would explain his need for the M60 machine gun he bought at Denny’s in the first episode of this season.

"I also think that at this point Walt is the captive of the redneck cartel."

I'm with you on all points.

[JerseyDvl]

Great post,i agree whole heartedly and appreciate your insight.

[Mr. K]

One of my favororite episodes was where walt took that explosive stuff (that LOOKED like chrystal meth) and went into the other drug dealers headquarters (way early in season one or two)

Then exploded the place on the way out

I vaguely remember the chrystal blue persuasion song playing in one episode and remember thinking how awesome it was

[Mr. K]

That would be a good reason they showed Todd shooting his mouth off at the beginning of last week naming Walt by name

[Ransomed]

Yes, the Tommy James and the Shondells crystal blue persuasion montage was a high point of the show, truly great.

That was a great episode too, as were all that included that psychopath, Tuco. He was so unpredictable and violent that I was often on the edge of my seat.
