The scene where he attacks the guys mocking Walt Jr is so full of rage. You can definitely see his inadequacy in full flight there.

BTW, Slate answer guy calculates Walt and Skyler's pile of cash to be between $17 and $45 million.

lol it's so stupid to even pretend you can guess at that. "Skylar can't figure it out, but i can!"

Doesn't seem that stupid: http://www.slate.com/blogs/quora/2012/09/06/what_is_a_good_approximation_of_how_much_money_skyler_had_in_the_storage_unit_when_she_showed_walt_how_she_stopped_counting_it_.html
― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 6 September 2012 12:53 (thirteen years ago)
Then again, it's an estimate that varies nearly $30 million. So obviously this guy comes to the same conclusion Skyler did: it's a lot of money, and certainly too much to come to an accurate count by hand.
― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 6 September 2012 12:54 (thirteen years ago)
if they bought 4 or 5 of these I bet they could blow through that pile. 1500 bills per minute!

She's probably going to regret showing Walt where all that money is sitting.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 6 September 2012 13:57 (thirteen years ago)
I assume that's where Walt got the $5 million to dump on Jesse.

interesting to see that much cash
― Brony 4 Life (Latham Green), Thursday, 6 September 2012 15:52 (thirteen years ago)
I'm pretty sure walt has one of those at vamanos that they showed he and todd using. so yeah, I was confused as to why it wasn't already counted.
also they should pile some old furniture and junk up in front of that cash
― wk, Thursday, 6 September 2012 16:42 (thirteen years ago)
because skylar was just all sigh more cash throw it in the pile

yeah the point isn't that she *couldn't* count it, just that she stopped when she realized there was no way she could launder all of it
and sure why not give jesse his cut, prolly didn't make a big dent in that pile
curious about what jesse does with his blood money now

Here's a good interview with the consultant chemist on the show. Unsurprisingly you can't actually cook meth by following the actual steps taken on camera.

Did anyone notice that Walt name on the fake id is Lambert (Skyler and Marie's maiden name)? Also, he's presumably using his real birthday. Makes you wonder who knows about him being in hiding.
