Early in the episode Walt is seen wearing a white undershirt under his blue dress shirt. Later, when disheveled in his home after packing and arguing with his family, he is no longer wearing the undershirt. I sure hope somebody was fired for that blunder.

A very good, but very sad show. Not what I expected at all.

ridiculous that sort of error is allowed. really bothered me and makes me question the whole series.

Me too. Made me a little nauseous when he told him he watched Jane die.

GDI, Walt. I mean, hes' just doing what he does. Also, GDI Skyler. Didn't she learn to trust Walt instead of Hank/Marie, and hasn't she already sided with him past the point of no return? I mean, why tell Junior with no confirmation Walt's in custody. And, what makes her think telling WJ is going to do any good? Kudos to whomever called Jesse being forced to make meth again with the kid and his momma being the reason he does so.

He basically alienated anyone who cared one iota about him in that episode. Is there a living sole that is still on his side? And not just alienated them, but burned any type of bridge that ever existed such that he'll never be accepted again.

I know there's been speculation about what the ricin is for, but at this point, what does it even matter? He could kill himself and wouldn't even matter. If he kills Lydia, all that does is stop the demand for meth, so Jesse may get killed instead of being a slave. Todd's crew still has the vast majority of the cash. And, Walt has very little use for it.

In my mind, the show could have just stopped there. The only question is rather or not Skyler gets to keep the car wash as a sustainable business and what their life will be like going forward. They'd likely report any cash they received from Walt at this point. Marie is [expletive]. Jesse is [expletive]. Hank is dead. Walt is gone. Todd's uncle/crew is partying.

I can't wait to see what Walt wrote on the notes pinned to Holly's shirt.

More BB discussion.

At least Hank got a cool death scene. Poor Gomey was just dead.

By the way, if you take a second to examine the relationship between Gomey and Hank, it's some total BS. Hank and Gomey work together on everything but Hank gets all the credit, Hank gets all of the promotions and Gomey gets nothing but shot.
