But yeah there's a lot about that which doesn't make sense, like WHAT else exactly would he be trying to get her to do/say?

To have spent at least 30 minutes in a situation where a minute costs thousands of dollars, just so you have a master shot where the cloud comes in and leaves again...
Also, they just dubbed over the dialogue for that scene, so they could have easily had stand-ins sitting around while the digital camera whirred.
Clearly, if Ted is dead he's going to be a problem. Local businessman dies the same day his $600K check is mailed to the IRS? Anyway, Ted is a dead red herring. Walt has bigger fish to fry, because yeah, I don't think Gus was bluffing. He just murdered a dozen capos and dons in Mexico.
And there was no way Ted was wearing a wire just to catch Skyler.
Ending of this ep was a no way out sort of tipping point. There was always a fail safe - running - but now that option is gone. Really, I'm at a loss how this show can spin this out for as many episodes as it has left.

Also how's this as a prediction for the end of this show? ---> Jessie to end up teaching high school chemistry. I mean, he really knows his stuff now, right? Well, not well enough to cook but well enough to teach high school chemistry.

I dunno, this show's raison d'etre is painting its characters into corners and then pulling them out, the current situation will change in a hurry I'm sure... xxxp
re: walt and skylar in love... if you watch the extended preview of the next eps on the AMC site, it's a pretty tender scene between them where walt lays it out
I have lived under the threat of death for a year now. and because of that I made choices. I alone should suffer the consequences of those choices, no one else. and those consequences are coming. no more prolonging the inevitable.

I think that would be a pretty radical way for the show to end, for everything to return to some degree of surface normalcy, because that's like the last place you can see them getting to at this point and it is almost hard to remember what it was like. I'd be more satisfied with that then "oh everybuddy dyes"

Hmm if Gus does indeed put the hit on the White family it could be very easily spun as cartel payback for Hank. So yeah, I guess there really is nothing standing in the way of that happening, should Gus so choose.
Basically, we can speculate all we want but this:
walter white backed into a corner is walter white doing something fucking mental, he's proven this all the way through.
is OTM

I keep flashing back to one of those first conversations Walt has with Gus, where he shows a pretty strong grasp of long-game strategy re: the cartels. That Walt has been unable to think long term since then has been a facet of his narcissistic myopia, which manifests itself as sloppy desperation. I would guess at some point the show will reunite/realign him with Jesse, and that's how it will play out.

I feel strongly also that ricin cigarette has a part to play in the denouement of this season.

uhhhh the fact that he cooked a batch without Walt was a specific plot point this week.

it was tested for purity
I'm actually waiting for something to get fucked up in the lab and jesse can't fix it, something as simple as that could bring walt right back into the picture

I don't think the Mexico batch was as pure as walt's. Gayle was talking about the purity in an earlier episode flashback.

"I don't think the Mexico batch was as pure as walt's. Gayle was talking about the purity in an earlier episode flashback."
Yeah, wasn't Walt's like 99% pure or something? Gayle was saying he could only guarantee 96%, right, which was what Jesse hit.
