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

it reminded me Nashville... that scene, apart from the dread.

Man those stabbings were dreamy

Uh, FREAKY. Damn phone

lol

the dreamiest of stabbings

super dreamy *swoon*

it was sort of dreamy, if you hadn't corrected that i wouldn't have thought you were a psychopath.

please don't now brand me a psychopath.

I'm glad they bleeped Mike saying "fuck," otherwise this show would be inappropriate for some audiences.

I assume the "fuck"s will be unmuted in the DVDs and when the show hits the streaming services. Is this the first basic cable drama to include (muted) "fuck"s in the dialogue?

The torrented versions that I see have all the cussing intact, so they must be broadcasting them unedited somewhere.

mad men's had a handful of muted 'fuck's too.

Huh, my torrents are always censored.

I kind of hope they insert a load of extra 'fuck's into the DVDs to give the language more veracity. Jesse in particular would have a fucking foul mouth.

I like how Jesse was playing along with Walt's reminiscing game but wasn't really into it himself, just waiting for Walt to get on with whatever he had in mind.

Netflix streaming includes the fuxxx

tbh, this could have been a series finale and it would have made sense, it kind of felt like one. even the last scene.

I thought maybe Hank would have a keyser soze moment at walt's funeral when he sees Jesse in attendance

yeah, can't believe he didn't realize even then

btw you guys, it's sergio leone/clint eastwood day on amc - currently 'the good, the bad and the ugly'

"I never forget old friends, Tuco"

Ah, I guess I was wrong. The ones I see do have the cursing muted. I guess my brain was just seamlessly imputing all the missing fucks.

hahaha

is it weird that i'm kind of blasé about prison neo-nazis, from what i've read it's just another prison gang, ppl join them for protection, not because they love hitler

they're not REAL nazis

otm consorting w/ nazis isnt v meaningful in this context

Cranston's delivery on the "I used to love to go camping" line was a series highlight for me.

To anyone else the inscription could be willed away as it's kind of ambiguous. But Hank KNOWS.

hank knows gale's handwriting

i thought that at first but then i think the only people we see in the desert scenes are walt and todd? but i dunno. and ey who cares.

They fistbump with a leather-jacketed hand in the desert, last week they signed on to do meth-trading business with dudes in leather jackets in the desert, presumably we don’t see ppl clearly bcz they saved money by not hiring featured performers and it was shot by 2nd unit

GAH

one of his most evil moments for sure

Haven't read any comments yet, but oh my god, what a spectacular episode. There were some downright Godfather II moments, from the very Gordon Willis look of stuff to the incredible juggling of the (multiple) family dynamic(s).

BTW

they're not REAL nazis

What's weird is that I could have sworn one of the guys I recognized, the one with a huge swastika on his neck, from "Justified," where he played ... a neo-Nazi with a swastika on his neck. So first I thought, huh, maybe they got this guy because he already had the elaborate temp tattoo on. And then I thought, hmm, maybe this is actually a Nazi turned actor!

maybe's he's a nazi actor

also he knows gale wrote about a mysterious "WW" and the inscription is signed "GB"

spider jar= gale's book

no i'm pretty sure it was leaves of grass

has anyone dug up a scene where skyler puts it behind the toilet or somethin'

I felt the book thing was a little too scripted, esp w/ the book reappearing in this (or the prev? I watched them together) ep in the lab. if walt had been reading it on the reg it would have felt like less of a throwaway plot token that it ended up in the bathroom.

it's funny how the multitude of ways for Hank to find out that are really plausible (like Mike not losing the cops on his trips to HQ) would seem cheap somehow, so they have to do something which is really kind of silly

btw, i'm pretty sure nazi dude sitting on bed was Gator from Justified

okay gf says they showed him reading it in an earlier ep in the season...still not enough to merit being the thing the whole show turns on

he needed to read it ALL THE TIME

i think he found it in a drawer and had a bit of a chuckle ("o gale, remember that guy? what a character!") and left it on the bedside table. not sure how it made it into the bathroom.

oh yeah I vaguely remember that

still no real weight attached to it, it just was pure plot device

i have zero issues with the book.

it was the guy who played Devil, from the most recent season. Also, I don't think he had any Nazi tattoos in Justified, tho he was part of Boyd's crew.

tbf im p sure he reads it in a lot of the parts of the show that arent broadcast, just in his down time or w/e, its a real thing, def not a plot device

whoops devil, not gator. confused

i was fairly certain titus welliver was in the back playing one of the nazi guys. he had maybe one line, but he's not the kind of actor you bring on to shadow in the dark and say one thing, so if it was him i'd expect the nazis to be back in the second half.

could well be that the prison guys may want a bigger piece of the pie

i think he found it in a drawer and had a bit of a chuckle ("o gale, remember that guy? what a character!") and left it on the bedside table. not sure how it made it into the bathroom.

yep, then i thought i saw it shown somewhere else in another room in a later episode - it kept popping up in the background, maybe in different rooms, implying he was carrying it around, reading it around the house and so on

it is hella creepy he'd keep that book as a momento, him and todd-the-tarrantula-keeper are birds of a feather no?

neo-nazi's are, i understand, the de-facto gang for white guys in prison. so on one hand it's not really that surprising uncle prisonconnections had swastica tatto dudes around him. on the other hand, yep, just how low can walt sink ffs?!?!?

yeah, that's the point there
