It's not ego at all. Walter is 100% correct. that is his formula. jesse has no right to steal his recipe and then go sell it. can you go work at a coca cola factory and just leave and start your own company that sells the same product. no. obviously. ffs these comments
@@TeamTwiistz ffs I think you’re overreacting a little. You’re answering a question nobody asked lol sure if Walt’s meth business was a legal enterprise I wholeheartedly believe that he would be entitled to deny someone else’s use of his formula. I don’t think any of the comments imply that Walt was wrong for doing what he did and feeling that way about it. However, It’s not an unfair observation that Walt’s actions throughout especially near the end of the series are almost wholly ego drive and end up being his downfall.
Went from referring to him as “son” and being concerned about his sobriety to condescending him to Pinkman and calling him a junkie in less than a minute lol.
Jesse spoke about the pH balance, the equipment he used, the type of catalyst he used, and more. He's learned a ton about chemistry, and Walt couldn't even acknowledge it. Walt was instantly threatened when Jesse produced a product as good (or nearly as good) as his own. He called it inferior without even testing it. Walt had all the money he needed to leave his family, and then die knowing they'd be secure. But his ego couldn't handle someone else making his product; which proved his stated intentions were completely bogus.
He knew that if he gave Jesse some positive reinforcement, he could even make a better product. Jesse's meth from season 1 improved slowly but steadily. Walt needs to think he is a genius and his stuff is unachievable by some stoner kid.
@@maskedmarvyl4774 yes, and it’s natural for Walter to feel threatened. Besides pride, Jesse could have become a real competitor, or worse, reveal (at least most of) his formula to someone more capable. Walter is not the only genius on earth.
Wow how quickly Walt changes attitude. He goes from calling Jesse "son" (trying to be the manipulative father figure) to "Pinkman" (his ego breaks out and Jesse is just his deadbeat student again).
In real life, Walter White would have been caught already you telling me that his brother-in-law who was a DEA agent did not catch on or was even suspicious that Walter was dealing drugs? This series is so unrealistic I mean come on there are CCTV cameras in the stores and they were shopping together if this did happen in real life he would have been busted already
Walt: “What did you use for reduction!? Don’t tell me…platinum dioxide, right?” Jesse: “No…mercury aluminum amalgam; the dioxide’s too hard to keep wet.” …the dumbfounded expression on Walt’s face when his attempt to “trick” Jesse into fumbling is thrown right back at him is perfect.
@@_MaZTeR_ Almost certainly, because I think the blue color exists solely when it's at a very high purity. All less pure meth won't be blue (within the BrBa universe)
@@jro3213Perhaps - even Gale says before he starts working with Walt that he "can't account for the blue color". Maybe it's just that he's never seen meth that pure before. But even Gale was routinely producing product at 96% purity, and it wasn't blue - the lowest confirmed purity at which we see meth be blue is 96.4% - when Jesse produces it for the cartel in Mexico. So perhaps any purity above 96% would be blue (only in BrBa universe, as you said). The idea that ONLY Walt "owns" meth of such high purity is hilarious to me. How fucking arrogant can one get.
@@illuminocalypse5210 Good point, I forgot about Gale boasting about 96% yet he can't account for the blue color. He described the difference between 96 and 99 as a 'gulf' so every tenth of a percent past 96 must matter a LOT, hence around 96.4 the blue shows up
Yeah this scene made me more angry than when he watched Jane die or ordered the deaths of 10 people in prison even though those scenes were WAY more immoral. Walter cared about Jesse in a really twisted way and a lot of what he did was also to protect him, but this was straight up abuse based on nothing but pride.
Yes, and when Jesse countered with "no, mercury aluminum amalgam", Walt froze for a good three seconds. His student that he criticized and belittled had learned more than the teacher was comfortable with. By the way, that happens at colleges All The Time. Professors feel threatened when their students outshine them for a moment.
@@maskedmarvyl4774 Walt is, by design, extremely insecure, egotistical and petty. He is by no means representative of real life teachers or professors.
@@cometmoon4485 , He is representative of the theater arts teachers and music teachers I have seen firsthand at my college. When students started to outshine their professors, encouragement turned into belittlement and they would obstruct their students from moving forward. A female student explained to me what the theater department had done to torpedo her boyfriend's plans in the department. It explained a lot about the strange politics of my theater department when I was there. Unfortunately, I chose to remain, instead of following my instincts in leaving.
Walts ability to go from a nice, supportive guy to a hardened crime boss is terrifying...the change in demeanor....then tryna school Jesse by assuming his cook and then his face when he finds out his assumption is wrong, he becomes a straight up hater lol.Bryan Cranston is a masterclass actor...so is Aaron Paul.
The story of Breaking Bad isn't about how the drug business changes Walter into someone completely different. The story of Breaking Bad is how the drug business reveals who he always really was.
I think the Heisenberg Id was already there he just never had an opportunity or an excuse to let him out until his cancer diagnosis at which point he just said "I got nothing left to lose fuck it I'm breaking bad" or something like that
0:27 Walt struggles to come up with anything, since he never bothered getting to know Jesse. And since he only sees him as a junkie, he then asks him about his sobriety.
@@tylerhartley5031lol NO he’s not in the slightest as Walter nor ANY if the characters are “gAy” for ANYONE at all. NOR would Jesse ever say something as god awful as that, seriously, just stop. It’s just insult jab between the two and that’s it. Lol just get that trash nonsense out of here because that is disgusting to even say.
@@RealLifeAlias lol NO they're not, NONE of these characters are in the slightest as NO ONE is "toTaLly gAy fOr" ANYONE here.

Just nom there is no, "yOu GoTtA aDMiT iT" AT ALL here, except say and admit that YOU are factually wrong here in EVERY way ENTIRELY so, nothing more. And done deal. Just stop, seriously.
Walt firmly states he doesn't want back in the business then does a 180 when he sees Jesse really can copy his recipe. His ego was the entire cause of his descent into becoming the criminal monster Heisenberg. It all started with his ego being bruised by Gray Matter offering him a job and he still wanted revenge.

@Akshay Natu You're giving Chemical know how too much credit here. Making Meth isn't an art. Most chemistry is just following a recipe, you don't need to be 300 IQ giga brain to conduct an experiment/operation. Nobody cares about a 3% purity anyway, literally only Walter and Gale cared.
@@mohmedhassan6875 That was my interpretation. Walt would normally be all pissy about how it wasn’t being done right (see seasons 1-5) but he was obviously impressed with the setup and attention to detail. I always thought that look was him being proud of Jesse finally “getting it”.
@@brandonsloan155 Could be a combination of both, he reminisced about how big his empire became as well as recognizing Jesse became a master meth cook. Of course, Walt was also willing to destroy Jesse's life if it suited him, but he was proud of him as a student.
@@brandonsloan155Im pretty sure it reflects on the fact he is proud of his accomplishments as a teacher. If you look at the series before it starts walt was someone that built an empire and then failed to keep it. only to then go onto teaching his knowledge. the same thing happens in breaking bad. walt builds an empire. fails to keep it. and then at the end he realizes he has accomplished nothing and that educating was the only thing in his life that gave him any meaning.
Also reminds us that even in that moment walt cant think of a single thing jesse Is good at Note- hes Very good with kids. Hed probably make a good dad. Maybe he should look into being a babysitter? Or a nanny?
@@Logan912I think Walt saw in Jesse a normal son that he had always wanted. Throughout the show Walt tries to connect with Walt Jr but it just isn't there between them like it is with Jesse. I think Walt resented the fact that his own son had cerebral palsy, much like how he resented being just a high school teacher. He had other visions of where his life was supposed to go with the kind of intellect he had
Even 10 years after this show has ended, I still love every minute of every scene Breaking Bad has to offer. Watching this show when it was first on TV, was truly a privilege I don’t think I will ever experience again in a TV show.
@@Reeclll This is early. Already his ego prevents him from admitting that Jesse did a good job cooking. He also was offered the money he needed and a position at Grey Matter. He could have taken that offer and been completely fine. But he didn't want that because he's the biggest narcissist and egomaniac in the entire damn continent.
In real life, Walter White would have been caught already you telling me that his brother-in-law who was a DEA agent did not catch on or was even suspicious that Walter was dealing drugs? This series is so unrealistic I mean come on there are CCTV cameras in the stores and they were shopping together if this did happen in real life he would have been busted already
Walt’s ego was so inflated here that he went from the concerned father type appraising Jesse’s sobriety, then tells him that Gus doesn’t deal with junkies. All because Jesse made meth just as good as Walt’s. Lmaoo fantastic writing
lol yeah, it's because it was the real deal. Think about it this way. Walt already had the deal with Grey Matter where he did the grunt work and then left, and they profited off of his work. He doesn't want to do it again with Jesse. See Jesse roll up in a Benz like "Hey Mr. White! Check out the new whip bitch!"
@@weshouser821 I mean he is still right tho this is inferior to Heisenberg’s cook its 96% pure instead of 99% and Gale had already said that there is a huge difference in those 3%.
No you have failed to understang what he is saying. The meth is also blue so it's kind of like walter's "brand" after a fashion. If people bought it expecting his quality and end up disappointed then he feels like it's his reputation which takes a hit. Like other knockoff products. Of course he is the only actual person who cares about this but that's just his line of thinking
@@aldahry4573 lol for dramatic purposes yeah 3% makes a difference…but in reality 96% purity is REALLY good since it’s a matter of efficiency… From a 100g starting sample you get 96g of product or 99g of product…and even then, you’d likely go through a round of cleaning to remove any residual “junk” left in. You’d still come around to making the same ‘ol meth when you’re done.
This scene really is the bridge between Walt being a loving caregiver, and the most dangerous meth cook on the planet. What's better is they cap it off with both of them resenting the other, similar to how a father and son would fight. You can almost just tell that Jesse wasn't intentionally trying to ditch his stuff off the roof. They weren't that spiteful towards each other yet.
@@EDoyl No, I'm saying this is the moment where Walter White and Heisenberg were sharing the same body in the same scene. This caregiving side of his personality will begin to fade massively from this moment on.
Its also interesting how in the "say my name" scene Walt is asked how methheads will be able to tell the difference between his product and the lower quality one, and Walt claims it will give a better high
Imagine rolling up to the dude-who helps you jumpstart your entire meth empire and sticks with you through 95% of the journey-just to tell him his best effort is “trash.”
Walt Thought he was a drug lord. A real drug lord wouldn't be threatened by a subordinate bringing him quality goods. He'd only be threatened if his turf was being personally invaded, and Walt was supposedly out of the business entirely by this point. Walt was being entirely petty on every level at this point. His student had excelled beyond his expectations, and instead of praising him for his skills and what he learned, Walt put him down and belittled him. This was actually a pathetic scene.
@@maskedmarvyl4774 bro it’s crazy how dumb people are to think Walt built an empire, they were basically bankrupt with no dealers until they asked Saul for the Gus contact. Walt acting like he was a drug lord was his downfall, he didn’t have control over anyone besides Jesse 😂
@@maskedmarvyl4774lol There no such thing as a “real” drug lord, you either are you or you’re not. You’re not supposed to be a drug lord at all as it’s illegal and a criminal act so there’s no set behavior in order to BE one, that simple. Walter WAS a real drug lord but he was just an extremely petty one from his own egotistical pride and vanity. That’s it!
@@dravidianking1298I mean Walter DID build an empire entirely from his own product, yeah it’s off the backs from Gus’ distribution that kick started him up and than he found his own! Absolutely NONE of the fans are AT ALL “dUmB” for saying that Walter built an empire because they’re RIGHT in saying so. Nobody is “cRaZy” for saying so AT ALL so you’re entirely wrong when you say that. Obviously it wasn’t from nothing but he DID pull from the lessons and scraps of everything he’s been through. Walter wasn’t “basically bankrupt” AT ALL, he just Walter White WAS a drug lord and a really good one, we see that throughout the show that he’s an excellent drug dealer with great resources by his side to him up climb the leader. Walter wasn’t “aCtInG” like a drug lord, he WAS a drug lord, and that wasn’t his “dOwnfAlL” in the slightest, his downfall was his ego and pride on the fact that brought him down AND the fact that he shouldn’t have ever been involved in crime to begin with. It’s what destroyed him and his family, alongside everyone who was involved in crime as they all suffered the same fate, they ALL had self destructive tendencies that got themselves killed in this line of work, from Gus, Mike, Nacho, The Salamancas, and even Jimmy who suffered greatly in the end. You’re bad attempt to talk down to Walter is invalid as Walter White WAS drug dealer and drug lord mob boss and an excellent but still met his inevitable demise like everyone else. Nobody is “duMB” for saying that Walter built a drug empire as Walter DID build a drug empire, there’s no set standard on how you do something like that as it’s ILLEGAL, you know, a criminal act that which you’re not supposed to do. So regardless, how you get a drug empire can be anyway possible as there’s no rules or set standards on HOW your supposed to do something this illegal in organized crime, you know, that thing that you’re NOT supposed to do. Walter had control over a lot of things MORE than just Jesse, it’s just some thing went out of control as Walter made millions upon MILLIONS of dollars from all the meth that he sold but he couldn’t control the DEA investigating the Heisenberg case. That’s it! Walter WAS a drug lord, just an extremely petty one due to his own pride and ego.
Lol Jesse getting all nervous when he pulls it out looking around , Walt not giving two shits , just holding a big huge bag of meth 😂 “THIS IS MINE , THIS IS MY PRODUCT”
i think the real reason this series is so famous is that we the audience can connect to walt's ego natured mind set and jesse's innocence in this series. that relatable factor made this series a great one.....atleast for me.
this is giving vibes of that one spongebob episode where Spongebob creates a genuinely good marble sculpture only for Squidward to pull out critiques out of nothing
Walt's big mistake was teaching Jesse the process in the first place. Walt should have kept him just as an assistant without explaining anything. That way everyone would have depended on him.
Walt couldn't keep it to himself though. Jesse was his validator and unwittingly built up Walts ego even further with all the praise about Walts product.
Yeah if he didn’t want Jesse making it he shouldn’t have taught him. Walt could’ve retired several times over and Jesse could’ve been his successor, a new Heisenberg, and then he would’ve been the start of a legend rather than wanting to take it all with him. Maybe Jesse would never achieve 99.1% purity but if he was actually able to improve on the process then he would’ve gotten pretty close and it would be years to decades before it became known his product was not the same as what came before, and that’s if the previous product wasn’t entirely used😅
It’s amazing how the show makes me empathize with Walt’s problem early on, then disliking him for being such an egotistical prick, to finally rooting for him to get back at those that hurt him and those in his life while hoping he gets what he deserves. What a show that people will still be talking about for decades to come.
It's so interesting how offended Walt is. He doesn't want to be in the game anymore. But he also doesn't want his name sullied, even if he's not in the game anymore. Hubris was Walt's biggest flaw and his ultimate downfall. Even when it didn't serve him anymore.
They were polar opposites and wouldn't stand each other's company. It wasn't their call, anyway. Gus would never admit Jesse into his lab unless Walt insisted and vouched for Jesse.
@@paulrockatansky77”They were polar opposites” So? I mean, Jesse and Walt were also polar opposites. At least with Jesse and Gale, Gale would have been a lot nicer than Walt so that if Gale had the opportunity to teach Jesse stuff, he would be a lot more genuine and enthusiastic about it with none of Walt’s manipulation/egotism.
Jesse though he was good in something for the first time of his life and Walt just destroyed this and dragged him down to a stupid junkie with no future, that's so heartbreaking
1:10 Torn between a proud father figure, watching his "son" excel at his own field, and absolutely enraged because his ego can't take someone else being just as good as him.
Not just symbolizes, if you slow the video down to 0.25x speed you can actually see the documents bouncing off the concrete forming the word "bad" for a split second.
@rheese12 right as the box hits if you pause it, you can see the script of breaking bad fall out and break apart just as jesse has been broken by walts badness
I like to imagine an alternate world where Walter and Jessie continue to work together with Gus with no issues, have a good, non-toxic relationship; Walt lives a happy family life and quits the business when he has earned a few million, which is more than enough; Jessie continues but then decides to pursue an education in chemistry; Gale takes over production for Gus with slight tutoring from Walt every now and then to make sure quality remains top notch and everyone lives happily ever after
@@HForkproductions Definitely a grey area but they have let people walk away from it. If you watched Better Call Saul when they were building the underground lab they let the crew walk away afterwards. If mike trusted Walter he probably could convince Gus to let him be free
Yeah it took me awhile to see it. But I don't know he was getting no respect for a longggg time. Then he finally found his calling so maybe he wasn't always like that, or maybe he was?
The best part about this scene is that Jesse's meth is about as 95% as good as Walt's but Walt's ego can't allow him to believe an uneducated junkie was able to fully learn his recipe by simply watching him cook it.
to think this behavior was all born out of Walt’s past insecurity of leaving Grey Matter behind and Elliot becoming successful with it anyway. Walt can’t let Jesse feel like he can succeed without him, because if he does, Walt will just get left behind, again.
Damn , poor Jesse , everytime he tried to have a calm conversation with Walt it ended up with Walt being mean to him and saying disrespectfull thing’s to him.
Yep, he took Jessie's meth which was made in a measuring beaker and mixed with chilli powder and taught him how to make it properly. Now Jesse is making in properly but Walt is upset because he wanted to be the gatekeeper to the perfect product. His ego couldn't let some two bit junkie who he failed in high school chemistry be on par with him - a prize winning chemist who by his own claims should be a multi millionaire for his work in chemistry founding Gray Matter.
I've watched this scene so many times and just now noticed something kind of funny. Look at Jesse's bag of meth at 1:21, the meth is in a Hefty brand style sandwich bag with a red slider to seal it. Then just a few seconds later at 1:25, you can clearly see that the meth is randomly in a completely different sandwich bag that looks more like a Ziploc without any slider on it lol.
We see Walt go from himself to Heisenberg in like a minute. His pride and ego take over and he shits on Jesse, because he can't accept that he's almost as good as he is. He wants Jesse to always be dependent on him, so he can use and control him. And he looks down on him because he thinks he's smarter than everyone else.
you realize how crazy walter sounds about jesse making "his product". they're arguing about selling drugs and walter's formula but before he pulled the bag out he said he was out and didnt wanna cook anymore. once his ego was attacked it became a challenge and a game to walter so he pursued a way to prosper over jesse to assert his dominance.
Such a weird moment. Jesse was basically saying he’d pay Walt royalties for his formula and keep him and his family out of the game respectfully and Walt just decided to whine at him.
In real life, Walter White would have been caught already you telling me that his brother-in-law who was a DEA agent did not catch on or was even suspicious that Walter was dealing drugs? This series is so unrealistic I mean come on there are CCTV cameras in the stores and they were shopping together if this did happen in real life he would have been busted already
@@dwanedexter7685 Lol just no. This series IS realistic and makes complete plausible sense for Walter White to get this far. You’re not making ANY sense at all. There was nothing for the “brother in law who was a DEA agent” to even SUSPECT what Walter even was at all as there was NOTHING that was linking Walker to “dealing drugs” definitely intill the very end where Hank puts it all together! That should be obvious here as the show makes everything VERY believable and convincing! Which you’re not getting AT ALL here! Just because there are cameras in stores, and they were shopping together in VERY earlier parts, doesn’t mean that makes them suspicious at all of anything. Having CCTV cameras doesn’t mean anything as Jesse and Walter weren’t doing anything suspicious on camera that could have gotten them caught in the slightest AT ALL. And even the moments they WERE caught on camera, no one could have saw it with either Walter OR Jesse because their faces and bodies were blocked and covered. That simple and it all makes COMPLETE sense here entirely THROUGHOUT the show! What you’re saying isn’t true AT ALL here. The show IS very realistic while having fun with itself as a show, NOT “sO uNrEaLiSTiC” AT ALL. Walter White having a brother in law who was a DEA agent in real WOULD NOT have gotten “cAuGhT alReAdY” in the slightest as the way how they escaped every scenario and got rid of most of the evidence in every situation they were in by the skin of their teeth made COMPLETE sense because of HOW each and every situation was portrayed. Just STOP with your nonsense here, seriously!
Walt went from being nice to Jesse to insulting him over the meth. I love how this show just flips the script so quickly you can never guess what’s going to happen next it unpredictable. That’s why I love this show.
He wasn't even nice to begin with. The apparent niceness is entirely self-serving, and he's not even good at it. He can't come up with a single nice thing to say when Jesse asks what he's good at. He mentions his sobriety, which is more to police him than to compliment him -- and he later calls Jesse a junkie anyway. Shows how he really feels about him.
"You cut me in? No no, I cut you in." That's all it was about. Even if they both got the same amount of money, what always mattered is that Walter is on top.
Walt is upset because he thought he was the only one capable of making the blue meth but now that Jesse has learned to make it the same way as Walt its a threat to Walt being the only one capable of producing the good stuff.
@@stormtraitor6545Be real, He WAS very immature and extremely emotional, he acted without thinking too many times and constantly let his emotions get the best of him.
Jesse might be immature, but he's also the only one who actually deems abusing children wrong. Walt would have happily kept cooking for a child murdering drug kingpin had it not been for Jesse (untill his ego got in the way that is) Jesse has a heart, Walt doesn't.
@@jeremiahnoar7504 I was really surprised tho because in the last season it is revealed that HE left. All this time I thought they screwed him over, but in fact he decided to leave and accept the 5000 dollar compensation. Legally he was protected UNTIL he himself packed up his shit and left. Which is kinda shit since all he had to do was not be a coward and grit his teeth through an awkward situation.
@@Dctctx He did not patent it. It is an illegal product that should not exist. A recipe for meth existed before him, he was just extremely good at it. He can't be mad if someone is also capable of doing it.
I guess I just had an awful father growing up cuz when I was watching this for the first time my brain didn't even question Walt's change in demeanor. Supportive to immediately insulting and berating. Now that I'm a grown man I immediately recognize the pride and envy in his reaction. Having a dad like that reinforced being proud of my OWN work instead of waiting to be insulted by him.
Jesse was like a proud son showing his dad his report card, that he finally passed his classes. And Walt was like the never-impressed dad that said C's are not good enough and it is mediocre. Heartbreaking.
Anyone notice how the bag of meth changes at 1:24 then back again at 1:41? (the bag at 1:24 is one of those regular food safe bags, but the bag at 1:41 is a food safe with a zipper)
This is brilliant! Vince made it symbolise walt cooking meth, the RV and the blue stuff all symbolise walter starting to cook meth. Jesse's stuff is a metaphor for Jesse learning walt's recipe, revealing a heartbreaking connection to jesse selling meth. Bravo vince!

I wonder if this is the same level of cook he made for Don Eladio's cartel which was, 94 or 96% if I recall
@@_MaZTeR_ Almost certainly, because I think the blue color exists solely when it's at a very high purity. All less pure meth won't be blue (within the BrBa universe)
@@jro3213Perhaps - even Gale says before he starts working with Walt that he "can't account for the blue color". Maybe it's just that he's never seen meth that pure before.
But even Gale was routinely producing product at 96% purity, and it wasn't blue - the lowest confirmed purity at which we see meth be blue is 96.4% - when Jesse produces it for the cartel in Mexico. So perhaps any purity above 96% would be blue (only in BrBa universe, as you said).
The idea that ONLY Walt "owns" meth of such high purity is hilarious to me. How fucking arrogant can one get.
@@illuminocalypse5210 Good point, I forgot about Gale boasting about 96% yet he can't account for the blue color. He described the difference between 96 and 99 as a 'gulf' so every tenth of a percent past 96 must matter a LOT, hence around 96.4 the blue shows up
This scene always hurt to watch. Jesse was like a proud son
Jesse sold meth to recovering addicts too
@@Justinhomii That's probably the worst thing he does. I'd definitely place it above murdering Gale.
And Walter was the dad who never wamts his son to surpass him
Yeah this scene made me more angry than when he watched Jane die or ordered the deaths of 10 people in prison even though those scenes were WAY more immoral. Walter cared about Jesse in a really twisted way and a lot of what he did was also to protect him, but this was straight up abuse based on nothing but pride.
Yeah it's like an abusive narcissist dad when his son tries to impress him
The delivery of “don’t tell me….platinum dioxide, right?” In sheer disdain keeps getting me 😂😂😂
It’s like the scene in the lab with victor, explain to me again because I forget 😂
Yes, and when Jesse countered with "no, mercury aluminum amalgam", Walt froze for a good three seconds. His student that he criticized and belittled had learned more than the teacher was comfortable with.
By the way, that happens at colleges All The Time. Professors feel threatened when their students outshine them for a moment.
lol platinum dioxide pffff you platinum diamateur
@@maskedmarvyl4774
Walt is, by design, extremely insecure, egotistical and petty. He is by no means representative of real life teachers or professors.
@@cometmoon4485 , He is representative of the theater arts teachers and music teachers I have seen firsthand at my college. When students started to outshine their professors, encouragement turned into belittlement and they would obstruct their students from moving forward. A female student explained to me what the theater department had done to torpedo her boyfriend's plans in the department. It explained a lot about the strange politics of my theater department when I was there. Unfortunately, I chose to remain, instead of following my instincts in leaving.
Walts ability to go from a nice, supportive guy to a hardened crime boss is terrifying...the change in demeanor....then tryna school Jesse by assuming his cook and then his face when he finds out his assumption is wrong, he becomes a straight up hater lol.Bryan Cranston is a masterclass actor...so is Aaron Paul.
According to anyone commenting videos on YT, every actor, movie, singer or whatever is masterclass genius of all times. Duh.
The story of Breaking Bad isn't about how the drug business changes Walter into someone completely different. The story of Breaking Bad is how the drug business reveals who he always really was.
Walt genuinely thinks he owns meth cooking and takes offense to someone using a recipe that, according to him, was just basic chemistry.
yes but only in breaking bad lol
I think the Heisenberg Id was already there he just never had an opportunity or an excuse to let him out until his cancer diagnosis at which point he just said "I got nothing left to lose fuck it I'm breaking bad" or something like that
Walt was actually impressed, he’s got too much ego to compliment Jesse. Remember Jesse cooked down in Mexico & it was 96.2% purity.
He wasn’t “impressed” AT ALL, he was just insecure and egotistical about his own work that someone else made. That’s it.
@@Gadget-WalkmenHim being jealous about Jesse s product means he is impressed
@@gordongekko9742 not in the way that you phrased it or that which you think at all here. “Impressed” is NOT the right word, it’s insecure.

He did that cook in a foreign lab without any of his usual shit with like two dozen people watching and still nailed that demonstration
1:20 bag changes from zip to seal style.
OH I DIDN’T CATCH THAT! GOOD EYE!
they dont call it blue magic for nothing
0:27 Walt struggles to come up with anything, since he never bothered getting to know Jesse. And since he only sees him as a junkie, he then asks him about his sobriety.
Good catch

You're good at other things right? Like... Um, staying sober? Yeah?

Walt firmly states he doesn't want back in the business then does a 180 when he sees Jesse really can copy his recipe. His ego was the entire cause of his descent into becoming the criminal monster Heisenberg. It all started with his ego being bruised by Gray Matter offering him a job and he still wanted revenge.
In real life, Walter White would have been caught already you telling me that his brother-in-law who was a DEA agent did not catch on or was even suspicious that Walter was dealing drugs? This series is so unrealistic I mean come on there are CCTV cameras in the stores and they were shopping together if this did happen in real life he would have been busted already
@Akshay Natu Jesse can't do 99.1% but he can get the blue color and a high purity ( 96% ? ). Good enough to threaten Walt's ego
@Akshay Natu Jesse cooked chained and beaten for months and he was still managing 96%. He's fine. He surpassed Gale. Only Walt is better
@Akshay Natu You're giving Chemical know how too much credit here. Making Meth isn't an art. Most chemistry is just following a recipe, you don't need to be 300 IQ giga brain to conduct an experiment/operation.
Nobody cares about a 3% purity anyway, literally only Walter and Gale cared.
Ye
I love how the series ends with Walt being proud of his greatest student’s work.
Wait a second is that was the meaning of him walking in the lab in the last scene 😢
@@mohmedhassan6875 That was my interpretation. Walt would normally be all pissy about how it wasn’t being done right (see seasons 1-5) but he was obviously impressed with the setup and attention to detail. I always thought that look was him being proud of Jesse finally “getting it”.
I always looked at it as him being proud of himself and looking back at all his success with a sense of nostalgia
@@brandonsloan155 Could be a combination of both, he reminisced about how big his empire became as well as recognizing Jesse became a master meth cook. Of course, Walt was also willing to destroy Jesse's life if it suited him, but he was proud of him as a student.
@@brandonsloan155Im pretty sure it reflects on the fact he is proud of his accomplishments as a teacher.
If you look at the series before it starts walt was someone that built an empire and then failed to keep it. only to then go onto teaching his knowledge.
the same thing happens in breaking bad. walt builds an empire. fails to keep it. and then at the end he realizes he has accomplished nothing and that educating was the only thing in his life that gave him any meaning.
“You’re good at a lot of things son”. Subtle but breaks my heart every time.
The fact he says son reminds us of how he has neglected his real son
Also reminds us that even in that moment walt cant think of a single thing jesse Is good at
Note- hes Very good with kids. Hed probably make a good dad. Maybe he should look into being a babysitter? Or a nanny?
@@ses694Thinking about it you don't see much about Walter's relationship with his son, as opposed to his relationship with Jesse
@@ses694 Yeah like the scene when Walt Jr. visits him when he's nearly passed out, and Walt accidentally calls him "Jesse" without realizing it.
@@Logan912I think Walt saw in Jesse a normal son that he had always wanted. Throughout the show Walt tries to connect with Walt Jr but it just isn't there between them like it is with Jesse. I think Walt resented the fact that his own son had cerebral palsy, much like how he resented being just a high school teacher. He had other visions of where his life was supposed to go with the kind of intellect he had
Even 10 years after this show has ended, I still love every minute of every scene Breaking Bad has to offer. Watching this show when it was first on TV, was truly a privilege I don’t think I will ever experience again in a TV show.
It's so good, some of the scenes give me chills.
BB is one of the best shows we will ever see on TV. It’s sad but true.
Well said mate
@@droo2oord Yeah, like the scene Skyler sings happy birthday for Ted
@@mrmister3782lol those are the worst kinda chills when they come from cringeness 😂
Walt was a really good manipulator, had me thinking he was a good guy for the first bit of the show
Maybe having to almost lose his life multiple times in row when all he wanted to do was cook and earn money might have something to do with it
@@Reeclll This is early. Already his ego prevents him from admitting that Jesse did a good job cooking. He also was offered the money he needed and a position at Grey Matter. He could have taken that offer and been completely fine. But he didn't want that because he's the biggest narcissist and egomaniac in the entire damn continent.
In real life, Walter White would have been caught already you telling me that his brother-in-law who was a DEA agent did not catch on or was even suspicious that Walter was dealing drugs? This series is so unrealistic I mean come on there are CCTV cameras in the stores and they were shopping together if this did happen in real life he would have been busted already
It’s what happens when a egoist gets to be themself
I don't think he was manipulating in this way. IMO he was convinced himself that he was a good guy and it was the thing that made viewers believe him.
The way bryan slips out "son..." Is so masterful
Almost as good as when he calls Walt Jr “Jesse”
@@brianking2365?
When?
Salud when Jr comes to Walt’s place and finds him all fucked up
Walt’s ego was so inflated here that he went from the concerned father type appraising Jesse’s sobriety, then tells him that Gus doesn’t deal with junkies. All because Jesse made meth just as good as Walt’s. Lmaoo fantastic writing
1:29 “What the hell is this? This is MY PRODUCT.”
2:01 “I’m not gonna lend my name to an inferior product.”
Walt just bashed his own product 😂.
lol yeah, it's because it was the real deal. Think about it this way. Walt already had the deal with Grey Matter where he did the grunt work and then left, and they profited off of his work. He doesn't want to do it again with Jesse. See Jesse roll up in a Benz like "Hey Mr. White! Check out the new whip bitch!"
@@weshouser821
I mean he is still right tho this is inferior to Heisenberg’s cook its 96% pure instead of 99% and Gale had already said that there is a huge difference in those 3%.
No you have failed to understang what he is saying. The meth is also blue so it's kind of like walter's "brand" after a fashion. If people bought it expecting his quality and end up disappointed then he feels like it's his reputation which takes a hit. Like other knockoff products. Of course he is the only actual person who cares about this but that's just his line of thinking
@@EvMund nobody is gonna feel the difference between 96% and 99% except a computer lol.
@@aldahry4573 lol for dramatic purposes yeah 3% makes a difference…but in reality 96% purity is REALLY good since it’s a matter of efficiency…
From a 100g starting sample you get
96g of product or 99g of product…and even then, you’d likely go through a round of cleaning to remove any residual “junk” left in. You’d still come around to making the same ‘ol meth when you’re done.
This scene really is the bridge between Walt being a loving caregiver, and the most dangerous meth cook on the planet. What's better is they cap it off with both of them resenting the other, similar to how a father and son would fight. You can almost just tell that Jesse wasn't intentionally trying to ditch his stuff off the roof. They weren't that spiteful towards each other yet.
No, he's the most dangerous meth kingpin at all times.
@@itwasaliensNo, he wasn't always like that.
you're suggesting This scene is the moment Walter White became Heisenberg?
@@EDoyl No, I'm saying this is the moment where Walter White and Heisenberg were sharing the same body in the same scene. This caregiving side of his personality will begin to fade massively from this moment on.

I like how Walt always compartmentalizes his chemistry from the people actually using the drug. “What, from a bunch of meth heads?” haha
As opposed to non drug users Waltuh? Their opinion on the drugs quality doesn't matter to a seller.
Its also interesting how in the "say my name" scene Walt is asked how methheads will be able to tell the difference between his product and the lower quality one, and Walt claims it will give a better high
Walter Gaslighting White 💀💀
1:25
"What. The hell. Is this? "

@@pigglesgoomshby7249Jessie grew as a chemist
2:01 i mean look at the diameters here.
“This is very shotty work Pinkman” like he was back in chemistry lab at the high school 😂😂
It’s actually sad because a second ago he calls him son, then immediately distances himself from Jessie.
Imagine rolling up to the dude-who helps you jumpstart your entire meth empire and sticks with you through 95% of the journey-just to tell him his best effort is “trash.”
In less than a minute Walter goes from “you’re good at a lot of things son” to “WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!?”
This scene was building the foundation for the scene where Gus took him to Mexico and Jesse destroyed the Mexican chemist.
Perfect writing
Walt goes from supportive hs chem teacher to hardcore drug lord in about 2.5 milliseconds. Jesse was definitely not cut out for the game.
Walt Thought he was a drug lord. A real drug lord wouldn't be threatened by a subordinate bringing him quality goods. He'd only be threatened if his turf was being personally invaded, and Walt was supposedly out of the business entirely by this point.
Walt was being entirely petty on every level at this point. His student had excelled beyond his expectations, and instead of praising him for his skills and what he learned, Walt put him down and belittled him. This was actually a pathetic scene.
00:03:00 back to Walt again
@@maskedmarvyl4774 bro it’s crazy how dumb people are to think Walt built an empire, they were basically bankrupt with no dealers until they asked Saul for the Gus contact. Walt acting like he was a drug lord was his downfall, he didn’t have control over anyone besides Jesse 😂
@@maskedmarvyl4774lol There no such thing as a “real” drug lord, you either are you or you’re not. You’re not supposed to be a drug lord at all as it’s illegal and a criminal act so there’s no set behavior in order to BE one, that simple. Walter WAS a real drug lord but he was just an extremely petty one from his own egotistical pride and vanity. That’s it!
@@dravidianking1298I mean Walter DID build an empire entirely from his own product, yeah it’s off the backs from Gus’ distribution that kick started him up and than he found his own! Absolutely NONE of the fans are AT ALL “dUmB” for saying that Walter built an empire because they’re RIGHT in saying so. Nobody is “cRaZy” for saying so AT ALL so you’re entirely wrong when you say that. Obviously it wasn’t from nothing but he DID pull from the lessons and scraps of everything he’s been through. Walter wasn’t “basically bankrupt” AT ALL, he just
Walter White WAS a drug lord and a really good one, we see that throughout the show that he’s an excellent drug dealer with great resources by his side to him up climb the leader. Walter wasn’t “aCtInG” like a drug lord, he WAS a drug lord, and that wasn’t his “dOwnfAlL” in the slightest, his downfall was his ego and pride on the fact that brought him down AND the fact that he shouldn’t have ever been involved in crime to begin with. It’s what destroyed him and his family, alongside everyone who was involved in crime as they all suffered the same fate, they ALL had self destructive tendencies that got themselves killed in this line of work, from Gus, Mike, Nacho, The Salamancas, and even Jimmy who suffered greatly in the end.
You’re bad attempt to talk down to Walter is invalid as Walter White WAS drug dealer and drug lord mob boss and an excellent but still met his inevitable demise like everyone else.
Nobody is “duMB” for saying that Walter built a drug empire as Walter DID build a drug empire, there’s no set standard on how you do something like that as it’s ILLEGAL, you know, a criminal act that which you’re not supposed to do. So regardless, how you get a drug empire can be anyway possible as there’s no rules or set standards on HOW your supposed to do something this illegal in organized crime, you know, that thing that you’re NOT supposed to do.
Walter had control over a lot of things MORE than just Jesse, it’s just some thing went out of control as Walter made millions upon MILLIONS of dollars from all the meth that he sold but he couldn’t control the DEA investigating the Heisenberg case. That’s it!
Walter WAS a drug lord, just an extremely petty one due to his own pride and ego.
"Who was "they"? A bunch of meth heads?!"
Well, yeah those are your customers walt.
1:23 to 1:25 watch the baggy magically transform from a plastic zipper to a ziplock 👀
Good find! Also at 2:25 Walt is looking at Jesse and then it cuts to him looking out the window. Continuity is all over the place in this scene
Good catch!
Lol Jesse getting all nervous when he pulls it out looking around , Walt not giving two shits , just holding a big huge bag of meth 😂 “THIS IS MINE , THIS IS MY PRODUCT”
In a high school parking lot too 🤣
i think the real reason this series is so famous is that we the audience can connect to walt's ego natured mind set and jesse's innocence in this series. that relatable factor made this series a great one.....atleast for me.
This is low key one of the funniest scenes in the series
I’m glad at least 18 of us think that😂
I swear ,Walt was on some Hating ass Shit😂😂😂
Thank you
Walt felt some type of way about someone else creating his formula without his permission. Let alone almost perfecting it
This scene shows just how insane Walt really is.
this is giving vibes of that one spongebob episode where Spongebob creates a genuinely good marble sculpture only for Squidward to pull out critiques out of nothing
So True.
"you do a lot of things well"
"LIKE WHAT? ...
"your sobriety"
😂
Instead of acting like a proud dad, he acts like a jealous child. Walt’s character always bugged me
Walt's big mistake was teaching Jesse the process in the first place. Walt should have kept him just as an assistant without explaining anything. That way everyone would have depended on him.
Walt couldn't keep it to himself though. Jesse was his validator and unwittingly built up Walts ego even further with all the praise about Walts product.
Yeah if he didn’t want Jesse making it he shouldn’t have taught him.
Walt could’ve retired several times over and Jesse could’ve been his successor, a new Heisenberg, and then he would’ve been the start of a legend rather than wanting to take it all with him.
Maybe Jesse would never achieve 99.1% purity but if he was actually able to improve on the process then he would’ve gotten pretty close and it would be years to decades before it became known his product was not the same as what came before, and that’s if the previous product wasn’t entirely used😅
@2:15...Walt knew Jesse did it the right way.
It’s amazing how the show makes me empathize with Walt’s problem early on, then disliking him for being such an egotistical prick, to finally rooting for him to get back at those that hurt him and those in his life while hoping he gets what he deserves. What a show that people will still be talking about for decades to come.
Walt wasn't really mad about Jesse using his recipe. He's just taking out his anger on Jesse after being rejected by Principal Carmen. 😊
Incorrect
You can't blame a guy for being upset about getting rejected by Principal Carmen. She's got an ass like an onion.
That's hilarious! I never thought about it like that.
Did you even watch the show?
It's so interesting how offended Walt is.
He doesn't want to be in the game anymore. But he also doesn't want his name sullied, even if he's not in the game anymore.
Hubris was Walt's biggest flaw and his ultimate downfall. Even when it didn't serve him anymore.
It's kind of sad how excited Jesse was to show Walt. He's smiling and sounds super excited then Walt just shoots him down.
I would watch an entire season of Jesse working with Gale at the lab.
They were polar opposites and wouldn't stand each other's company.
It wasn't their call, anyway. Gus would never admit Jesse into his lab unless Walt insisted and vouched for Jesse.
@@paulrockatansky77”They were polar opposites” So? I mean, Jesse and Walt were also polar opposites. At least with Jesse and Gale, Gale would have been a lot nicer than Walt so that if Gale had the opportunity to teach Jesse stuff, he would be a lot more genuine and enthusiastic about it with none of Walt’s manipulation/egotism.
This scene is hilarious. The most comedic toxic duo ive ever seen. From "your good at alot of things" to " wtf js this ITS MINE"
Jesse though he was good in something for the first time of his life and Walt just destroyed this and dragged him down to a stupid junkie with no future, that's so heartbreaking
1:10 Torn between a proud father figure, watching his "son" excel at his own field, and absolutely enraged because his ego can't take someone else being just as good as him.
walt was 99%.
3:02 when he flaps his arms in the air :D
Fly reference
The moment Walter becomes Hummingbird
2:33 oh they said it was the 😂
They should know rite😂
It always makes me laugh
It's amazing how Walt's box of stuff right at 3:00 symbolizes "bad," as it has been broken. Vince Gilligan's genius just can't be measured.
Not just symbolizes, if you slow the video down to 0.25x speed you can actually see the documents bouncing off the concrete forming the word "bad" for a split second.
Vravo Bince!
How? I’m confused
@rheese12 right as the box hits if you pause it, you can see the script of breaking bad fall out and break apart just as jesse has been broken by walts badness
It's just amazing how the box briefly yells "It's breaking time" before breaking bad all over the place.
I like to imagine an alternate world where Walter and Jessie continue to work together with Gus with no issues, have a good, non-toxic relationship; Walt lives a happy family life and quits the business when he has earned a few million, which is more than enough; Jessie continues but then decides to pursue an education in chemistry; Gale takes over production for Gus with slight tutoring from Walt every now and then to make sure quality remains top notch and everyone lives happily ever after
And they all sing Kumbaya together too right?
Yeah wasn’t Gus gonna kill Walt anyway? You can’t let people walk away from organized crime
@@HForkproductions Definitely a grey area but they have let people walk away from it. If you watched Better Call Saul when they were building the underground lab they let the crew walk away afterwards. If mike trusted Walter he probably could convince Gus to let him be free
Yeah and all those drug users that got stuck on their harder pure drugs lived happily ever after
@@timeprotector4320 There would be no need to convince Gus
1:36 Walt says it’s his formula 3 times in less than 5 seconds. That sums up his character pretty well: selfish, greedy, and egotistical.
Yeah it took me awhile to see it. But I don't know he was getting no respect for a longggg time. Then he finally found his calling so maybe he wasn't always like that, or maybe he was?
The best part about this scene is that Jesse's meth is about as 95% as good as Walt's but Walt's ego can't allow him to believe an uneducated junkie was able to fully learn his recipe by simply watching him cook it.
Walt thought it was so bad, that he changed the bag it was in and put it in a new bag 1:20
to think this behavior was all born out of Walt’s past insecurity of leaving Grey Matter behind and Elliot becoming successful with it anyway. Walt can’t let Jesse feel like he can succeed without him, because if he does, Walt will just get left behind, again.
Damn , poor Jesse , everytime he tried to have a calm conversation with Walt it ended up with Walt being mean to him and saying disrespectfull thing’s to him.
Walter must have felt like this was just like the Gray Matter thing. He laid the foundation, and now someone else is about to steal his legacy.
Yep, he took Jessie's meth which was made in a measuring beaker and mixed with chilli powder and taught him how to make it properly. Now Jesse is making in properly but Walt is upset because he wanted to be the gatekeeper to the perfect product. His ego couldn't let some two bit junkie who he failed in high school chemistry be on par with him - a prize winning chemist who by his own claims should be a multi millionaire for his work in chemistry founding Gray Matter.
I've watched this scene so many times and just now noticed something kind of funny. Look at Jesse's bag of meth at 1:21, the meth is in a Hefty brand style sandwich bag with a red slider to seal it. Then just a few seconds later at 1:25, you can clearly see that the meth is randomly in a completely different sandwich bag that looks more like a Ziploc without any slider on it lol.
Unwatchable
@@h.schiffer5734lol
We see Walt go from himself to Heisenberg in like a minute. His pride and ego take over and he shits on Jesse, because he can't accept that he's almost as good as he is. He wants Jesse to always be dependent on him, so he can use and control him. And he looks down on him because he thinks he's smarter than everyone else.
Walt was mad that Jesse made a product as good as him and couldn't mentally accept it.
2:10 🤣🤣🤣 "well you must of done it wrong then"
nice argument, but I’m still right
The equivalent of a 4 year old showing his artist dad his crayon drawing, only to have it thrown in the garbage.
Mostly because the dad can't do much better
I really love the chemistry between these two. I just cannot get enough of them and their acting. Its always effortlessly phenomenal at every scene.
Yea, the *chemistry* was definitely essential for the show.
you realize how crazy walter sounds about jesse making "his product". they're arguing about selling drugs and walter's formula but before he pulled the bag out he said he was out and didnt wanna cook anymore. once his ego was attacked it became a challenge and a game to walter so he pursued a way to prosper over jesse to assert his dominance.
Such a weird moment. Jesse was basically saying he’d pay Walt royalties for his formula and keep him and his family out of the game respectfully and Walt just decided to whine at him.
Jesse: "Eat me!"
Walter: "Anytime Loser!"
Oh Walter, if only he knew.
In real life, Walter White would have been caught already you telling me that his brother-in-law who was a DEA agent did not catch on or was even suspicious that Walter was dealing drugs?

@@dwanedexter7685lame
@@dwanedexter7685 Lol just no. This series IS realistic and makes complete plausible sense for Walter White to get this far. You’re not making ANY sense at all. There was nothing for the “brother in law who was a DEA agent” to even SUSPECT what Walter even was at all as there was NOTHING that was linking Walker to “dealing drugs” definitely intill the very end where Hank puts it all together! That should be obvious here as the show makes everything VERY believable and convincing! Which you’re not getting AT ALL here!
Just because there are cameras in stores, and they were shopping together in VERY earlier parts, doesn’t mean that makes them suspicious at all of anything.
Having CCTV cameras doesn’t mean anything as Jesse and Walter weren’t doing anything suspicious on camera that could have gotten them caught in the slightest AT ALL. And even the moments they WERE caught on camera, no one could have saw it with either Walter OR Jesse because their faces and bodies were blocked and covered. That simple and it all makes COMPLETE sense here entirely THROUGHOUT the show!
What you’re saying isn’t true AT ALL here. The show IS very realistic while having fun with itself as a show, NOT “sO uNrEaLiSTiC” AT ALL.
Walter White having a brother in law who was a DEA agent in real WOULD NOT have gotten “cAuGhT alReAdY” in the slightest as the way how they escaped every scenario and got rid of most of the evidence in every situation they were in by the skin of their teeth made COMPLETE sense because of HOW each and every situation was portrayed.
Just STOP with your nonsense here, seriously!
Characters in this show go from being friends to wanting to strangle each other in seconds, and it's absolutely believable
His ego really ruined everything
Cranston is an amazing actor. He gets through that Walt knows the product is top notch, but his ego won't allow him to admit it.
Its crazy how much trouble for walt this one scene caused
Walt went from being nice to Jesse to insulting him over the meth. I love how this show just flips the script so quickly you can never guess what’s going to happen next it unpredictable. That’s why I love this show.
It just goes to show that Walt’s friendly relationship with Jesse was never genuine, at least from the end of season 2 onwards
He wasn't even nice to begin with. The apparent niceness is entirely self-serving, and he's not even good at it. He can't come up with a single nice thing to say when Jesse asks what he's good at.
He mentions his sobriety, which is more to police him than to compliment him -- and he later calls Jesse a junkie anyway. Shows how he really feels about him.
Interesting thing is Jesse was pretty good at drawing.
"You cut me in? No no, I cut you in."
That's all it was about. Even if they both got the same amount of money, what always mattered is that Walter is on top.

Walt is upset because he thought he was the only one capable of making the blue meth but now that Jesse has learned to make it the same way as Walt its a threat to Walt being the only one capable of producing the good stuff.
Jesse's immaturity and Walt's Ego were their demise.
Jesse wasn’t that immature, but he did always become naive whenever Walt manipulates him.
@@stormtraitor6545Be real, He WAS very immature and extremely emotional, he acted without thinking too many times and constantly let his emotions get the best of him.
Walt has known how to manipulate Jesse for the entire show to this point... Walt knows Jesse's weakness and how to exploit it.
Jesse might be immature, but he's also the only one who actually deems abusing children wrong. Walt would have happily kept cooking for a child murdering drug kingpin had it not been for Jesse (untill his ego got in the way that is) Jesse has a heart, Walt doesn't.
@@Gadget-Walkmenhe wasn’t lol emotional yeah but he was mature
Jessie was so hurt when Walt said he was embarassed for him. 😞
Walter acting like he owns a chemistry formula 😭
He was cut out of a multi billion dollar business essentially because his old business partner at Gray Matter owned the formula. So in a way...
Well he made it so it is his?
@@jeremiahnoar7504 I was really surprised tho because in the last season it is revealed that HE left. All this time I thought they screwed him over, but in fact he decided to leave and accept the 5000 dollar compensation. Legally he was protected UNTIL he himself packed up his shit and left. Which is kinda shit since all he had to do was not be a coward and grit his teeth through an awkward situation.
Does he not? He created the damn thing
@@Dctctx He did not patent it. It is an illegal product that should not exist. A recipe for meth existed before him, he was just extremely good at it. He can't be mad if someone is also capable of doing it.
0:25 "Son"
Holy shit. Did Walt ever call Jessie "son" again?
He does when he rescues Jesse from the crack house after Jane's death he calls Jesse son again
Several times
Several times
Several times
Several times
It’s like Walt was having flashbacks to when he got cut out of Grey matter & had to watch someone else take credit for his work.
It's gaslighting. He didn't like the fact that the junky he trained ended up making a batch as good as his without him.
I guess I just had an awful father growing up cuz when I was watching this for the first time my brain didn't even question Walt's change in demeanor. Supportive to immediately insulting and berating. Now that I'm a grown man I immediately recognize the pride and envy in his reaction. Having a dad like that reinforced being proud of my OWN work instead of waiting to be insulted by him.
The fact that Walt go so pissed off meant that Jesse's batch was close to his if not the same.
Jesse was like a proud son showing his dad his report card, that he finally passed his classes. And Walt was like the never-impressed dad that said C's are not good enough and it is mediocre. Heartbreaking.
More like A-
"You were gonna cut *me* in? No no, I cut YOU in." This is the exact moment Walt became Moe Green.
“Very shoddy work Pinkman” 😂😂
“shoddy” 😭😭😭😭😭
I'm actually embarrassed for you 😂
i feel for jesse on every level here, the rejection, the dissapointment.
Anyone notice how the bag of meth changes at 1:24 then back again at 1:41? (the bag at 1:24 is one of those regular food safe bags, but the bag at 1:41 is a food safe with a zipper)
Walt being as mad as he was showed that he was actually really impressed with the quality 😂
This is the moment Walt realized he should have patented his formula.
This is the exact moment Walt looked at the diameters
This is brilliant! Vince made it symbolise walt cooking meth, the RV and the blue stuff all symbolise walter starting to cook meth. Jesse's stuff is a metaphor for Jesse learning walt's recipe, revealing a heartbreaking connection to jesse selling meth. Bravo vince!
