Shall we anticipate the FIFTH SEASON of the AMC series "Breaking Bad"? I think I may.

It seems like, in the classical tragedy tradition, Walt has to die. But I think Jesse won't - he will probably end up with nothing, starting a new life, but not dead. Not De Niro at the end of Casino, more like sad music at the end of the Incredible Hulk TV show. He should probably be the one to kill Walt (fulfilling his oedipal duty as Walt's surrogate son).

Problem is, that all seems kind of obvious. Depends on the degree to which the writers feel the need to surprise us.

Perhaps neither will die - maybe one or both of them will end up arrested/imprisoned. That would be more of a humiliation for Walt - he's not unused to the idea of death, but being judged? He wouldn't like that. Of course, showing any courtroom stuff would be out of character for the show.

This series is in two 8 ep parts, yeah? If so, I presume there will be a cliffhanger at the end of the next ep, probably a character death (or in the case of the main two, possible death (like Cooper at the end of season 1 of Twin Peaks).

)

not to be the pedantic plot complainer from lagoon's otm description of ilx tv threads butttt

as much as i liked this episode the one thing that struck me as lame was how EASY it was for hank to break through. all of them have the same lawyer, and none of them will flip, we suspect they're getting paid off, lets tail the lawyer, hey look, hes putting money into deposit boxes

~everything crumbles~

idk i could have used a lil more intrigue or something

every breaking bad thread has been non-stop speculation about how walt will die, i so hope he doesnt just to fuck with you guys

BTW, in this most recent episode, there's a surveillance photo that Hank squints at. It looks like Mike waiting in the diner, alone, but there's something that catches his eye. Is it .... Lydia? Did anyone else notice?

the stills were posted here monday

i dont think the point of that scene was him figuring anything out, it was just supposed to show him being distracted by that case

My god it's a glass of milk.

is it? or is it... something else

Hank already knows Mike and Lydia worked together tho...? don't see what would be the big revelation there.

does he?

no he doesn't.

No

guess Shakey's not so good at watching this show after all

tbf I did miss an episode. but it doesn't seem like a giant cognitive leap of detective work to determine that two people who used to work for the same company might know each other/work together

rong rong rong

this is where shakey's house of cards comes tumbling down

idk what you guys think you're after - they know she's connected enough to the operation to raid her office and place bugs on her tanks

so they suspect her, and they suspect Mike - OMG WILL THEY EVER PUT IT TOGETHER

well, Gomez doesn't suspect her, because he as an idiot. but lol hank knows better...

you're panicking

it's just fun watching you squirm, shakey tbh

they don't suspect her personally of anything. She's just another person who works at Madrigal.

in fact, i'm pretty sure Hank didn't really know who she was when she called him about the bug

At Madrigal in Houston, Lydia (Laura Fraser) receives a call from Mike (Jonathan Banks), who warns her that the police are about to arrive. She escorts Hank (Dean Norris), Gomez (Steven Michael Quezada), and other officers to the Madrigal warehouse and points out foreman Ron (Russ Dillen), who was supplying her with methylamine. Mike reassures Lydia that Ron will not talk, adding that she will have a new guy in the warehouse soon.

they went to her office and interviewed her, Gomez said he thought she was too high-strung to be involved, altho Hank suggested otherwise

guess you have the upper hand now

wow this totally proves your point about the DEA knowing of the Mike-Lydia connection, good job

try to keep up here bro

that was in response to Number None asserting that Hank/Gomez didn't know who Lydia was

and all I said was that the DEA already know Hank and Mike work together/for the same company. which is true.

but OMG you guys have totally figured out the super-secret clue in the photos Hank was looking at, blowjobs all around

and all I said was that the DEA already know Hank and Mike work together/for the same company. which is true.

well some dude in germany making chicken nuggets "works for the same company"

there's no evidence that they have any idea that there's a Mike-Lydia connection so if they indeed saw her meeting him in a diner while he's under police surveillance it would be a big deal bro

yeah, they just came in and asked for Ron, so she pointed him out. They didn't come in and ask for the person who is their methylamine supplier. As far as they know, they did Lydia a favor by removing a criminal from her legitimate business operations

a really unpredictable thing for this show to do would be for Lydia to outsmart everyone and escape unscathed. which we all know is not going to happen.

lydia/badger meet cute, spinoff show

Saul as wacky neighbor

Method of Love: Coming This Fall on AMC

oh man I would so watch that

walt has to off the lawyer. but not before getting his hands on the payoff money. at which point he thinks, fuck these guys, who cares if they flip, i'm going to set up a meth lab somewhere far, far away. he's got no family any more anyway. saul can hook me up with a new identity, he knows a guy.

and all I said was that the DEA already know Hank and Mike work together/for the same company. which is true.

OK I have totally missed something here

yeah I know that was supposed to say Lydia duh

or WAS IT

I've said too much

Come on, that was obvious though. I called the Hank/Mike connection in s01e01.

and I wrote it down in my diary

Yeah. The Curb Your Enthusiasm music on blackout would have worked even better with this episode, something tremendously comic about how thoroughly Walt fucks everything up
