#BreakingBad #BrBa #4DaysOut - บันเทิง
"I used to wake up frightened - fear, that's the real enemy, but ever since my diagnosis, I sleep just fine..." - "Walt, I have your scan results. You're showing signs of remission"
Now he has to be responsible for his actions.
I think Walt was genuinely pissed that his cancer got better. If his cancer never got better then walt would have done everything he wanted. Jesse promised him his family would get the money no matter what. Walt would have ended up dying the way he wanted except now the cancer got better and it brings us back to the intervention scene when Walt said he never had a say in anything in his life. The cancer remission was like walter losing power and control over his life again
Interesting, I always thought the Cancer was an allegory for the death of "Walter" the character while "Heisenberg" is being born
I have similar thoughts, but along the Jekyl and Hyde angle: Mr Hyde was angry because now Dr Jekyl would not let him out as much or (worse) Dr Jekyl was angry because he would not have an excuse to let Hyde out as much, and Walt is enjoying letting Hyde out.
Walt as Dr Jekyl chemistry teacher is a powerless joke, Walt has Hyde drug lord is taking charge of his life.
I always interpreted Walt's outburst at the end as his confrontation with the realization that he would now have to live with what he'd done. He'd only ever been able to justify becoming a meth cook by telling himself that he was doing it to provide for his family once he was gone. Now that the cancer is in remission he no longer has that justification. He feeds people's addictions in exchange for their own money, he's murdered someone and disposed of two bodies (leaving their friends and family forever unaware of whether they're alive or dead), he created a huge rift in his marriage, he put his family in danger, he's done something that could humiliate and disgrace his brother-in-law in the future, and he coerced and manipulated Jesse into complicity with all of this. He didn't intend to be around to witness the consequences of what he's done, but now he will be. Now he has to *live* with what he's done.
I think it’s a whole mixture of emotions going on in him, and that’s why it results in an angry outburst. I think part of it is that he does, at least partially, long for death and was pretty much counting on the cancer to take him away from his disappointing life. If the cancer goes away, then not only does he have to go back to his disappointing life, with no more excuse to need to be Heisenberg, but he would also feel like he broke bad for nothing. Most likely having to eventually face the consequences for his actions, since death was his only expected way out. Taking the cancer away at this point fucks up his whole plan in a hundred different ways. Hence, a negative reaction.
I think that it's a combination of his choice being removed, and his excuse being removed.
He has been using his imminent death to justify all the things that he's doing, but if he survives then he loses that justification.
Plus, his survival means that he will continue to have medical bills to pay, meaning that he will have to keep cooking.
This is one of my favorite episodes of the whole show, not an often mentioned one but i love it. No one gets killed in this ep, no big action scenes, nothing major just a desert trip that went terribly wrong. It's a great character episode and it's extremely entertaining throughout. Plus the "wire" scene is one of the funnies moments of the show imo.
Mine is felina
they must react LOST
@@Andrew-xv6qd hell no
funnnier than ''a robot?''
This episode is highly artistic the way they use the cinematography, time lapses, montage, soundtrack, cold open, and then ambiguous ending, and Cranston and Paul really shine in their acting in this. It's an outstanding episode.
"Ahhhh wire!" Is probably my favorite line in the entire show.
I'm pretty sure I laugh-spat my beverage the first time I heard that line.
Walt was pissed because he was prepared and ready to die because he accomplished his goal. He had given up, gave it all he had, and was at peace with it. He felt betrayed by death and it pissed him off. That's why he reacted by punching the dryer. That's my opinion anyway. 💙☀️🔋
No, I think he is happy.
Just express happiness in violence
You can see that in a crazyful hand of nothing,after he enters his car after his very first bussiness with tuco.
There's a playlist of videos of analysis of breaking bad the explain that call walter white how a man becomes evil.
Is very good.
My english is not very good so if there some mistake i apologize.
I think so,too..remember in the episode Fly,he said,I've lived too long
1000000%. He realized he needed to carry on with the cooking and the lies.
He was ready for no more stress and bullshit every single day, his series of lies were on the verge of collapse and this is right before shit started hitting the fan
Steven is correct, Walt was absolutely expecting it to be over and this was in his eyes, the final cook. When he heard the good news, he was angry because he is now back in his situation where he has to face his lies. Listen to what Hank says as a joke when the doctor gives the good news "just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!". I don't blame you guys for sometimes finding it hard to interpret what is going on. This show is very complex and has so much going on. Everything about this show including the color of their outfits has a meaning behind it.
anacrobat89 I never caught the significance of that line! Yeah, that's not said in a happy context in the original use. Nice point!
this is a godfather reference. similar to saul's godfather reference. "i'm no vito corleone" - yeah, he's michael, the real bearer of tragedy.
My interpretation of the ending to this episode was always that Walt had an end point in sight, some kind of finality and he felt like it was all wrapped up in a bow for his family... and then, murphy's law, it was good news and he's in remission... and so now he has to somehow keep moving forward despite everything. EDIT (hence his private outburst)
Legend has it that skinny Pete is still driving to this very day.
+-🌅💙
Next to the river where Gendry is rowing rowing rowing
Yep, still driving up and down the riverbank.
YEAH SCIENCE!
Can't wait for Steven to add 'Bitch' to 'Yo' in his one-word catch phrases...lol.
@@CraigKostelecky A meth makin', smooth talkin', ass kickin', black hat & shades wearin', super duper, HEISEN-BOT!!!
Hells yeah, bitches!!!
🤣🕴🤖😎
@Master Epps lol
@@mojoriot2293 🤣
Ahhhhhh wire!
Jessie is amazing. "A robot?!" "ahh, wire..."
Half the time he is as unknowledgeable as most of the audience watching the show to the point that we're experiencing the show as him; and other times he's a straight up brickhead
Aaron Paul improvises the “a robot?” line. It’s one of the funniest moments in the whole series 😆
There was a podcast the creators released after each episode about that episode. I’m going to start listening back to them and highlighting important points for y’all!
I think it was actually a crew member who said it and then they re-filmed it the next day even though they finished the scene
His entire reason for getting into the meth business was that it was a last desperate attempt to leave a substantial amount of money for his family before he dies. He knew what he was doing was illegal (even though he loves the rush of it), but in his mind, he'd do what he needed to do in order to provide for his family. All of it on the assumption that he would be dead sooner rather than later. Now that he knows he is beating the cancer, he sees it as a cruel joke on him, and it makes him feel just as powerless and not in control of his own destiny as he's felt his entire life.
I've said it in another reaction and to my wife long before reactions but one of my favorite Breaking Bad quotes is "A robot?"
Love Jesse, love this show and you guys are awesome.
I feel dehydrated every goddamn time I watch this episode...
Erin Vandenberg Here you go! 😊🥤🥤🥤
GoT changed the way you guys watched television, but for others like us it’s Breaking Bad that sets expectations for other shows. This is the best storytelling in any TV drama to ever air. It was deemed by critics everywhere as the best drama of all time the night the series finale aired. It’s yet to be surpassed. GoT is better in some aspects like world-building, scope, and choreography, but BB is still more well rounded (speaking as someone whose seen every episode of both shows at least 3 times through).
I agree, what do you think of The Sopranos?
Sopranos and The Wire are better.
@@lucasstrople4767 Neither are. Sopranos is extremely overrated, and The Wire jumped the shark in season 5. Nothing touches this as consistent quality throughout, even The Shield.
@@shugaroony I really love The Wire but BB is so much better
@@shugaroony lol The Sopranos is fucking golden. It’s the best dark comedy to ever air on TV. It’s the Mafia genre. There’s no moral struggle there. The characters on The Sopranos are bad, and they know it, and they’re okay with it. It’s a totally different show even though both are dramas. Also, BB wouldn’t exist with The Sopranos. The episode ‘Live Free or Die’ is a direct tribute to The Sopranos. Tony Sopranos was the first heinous character that the audience rooted for. Fans of good drama can very easily appreciate this fact.
I think he was angry at the end because until that moment his condition justified his bad actions, now it's not the case anymore. He killed people, sold drugs and did many other bad things only because he thought he was dying soon, but now he's healing and he feels guilty i think
I love this episode. Me an my wife quote "Build a Robot" all the time. I love your reactions. I am so glad you are doing Breaking Bad.
I died laughing on Walt's reactiom when he saw what Jesse did to his phone to get a signal lol
Nikki's expression when you say 'yo' never ceases to be funny and cute at the same time. :)
Add that to "Snowww." Can't wait for him to start saying "bitch" all the time like Jesse does. Nikki's eyes might just roll right out out of their sockets!😁
PS. These "Walt is piss off" theories are absurd. He's obviously upset because he left the funyuns in the RV.
This episode was soooo funny 😂😂 I love the Walter + Pinkman moments
they really are amazingly entertaining together
I had cancer and nothing can mess you up as much as somebody telling you're going to die, dealing with the shock and seeing what it does to the people who love you, preparing to die, and then being brought back from the brink. In my own personal experience I went through a divorce because my ex wife couldn't deal with the reality very well, plus I was afraid that I was going to be a total burden on her life and budding career so I didn't fight it. Then remission came along and you realize that you have to be a keep going, and that means living with all the terrible things you might have said or done. I did a lot of crazy things after my diagnosis that I would never have done otherwise, and I still carry around a lot of guilt. I totally understand what Walt was expressing when he punched the paper towel dispenser.
Gilligan did an awesome job in this episode with the use of the colors yellow and red to represent caution and danger.
"4 Days Out" is one of the best episodes of Breaking Bad, it's funny, it's thoughtful, it's intense...and the music choice - Dave Porter knocked it out of park into another state with this one.
When Hank and Walt talk its not the criminal side of things he can relate its the mortal part. thanks for another great reaction
My take on Walt's angry outburst at the end: Up until now, Walt did think he would have to face the consequences of his actions because he would be dead soon. So he behaved recklessly. Now, he is in remission and although that's a huge positive for his mortality, it doesn't erase the consequences of the actions he took.
Walt punched the hand towel dispenser beacause he was angry he didn't get the deadly cancer diagnosis. He couldn't live with the reality of what he did. He did the awful crimes he did with the understanding that he was going to die with them. Learning he was going to have to live with them, it made him angry because he didnt know how to live with them
The part where Walt high fives Jesse-- I fucking love that shit!
This is one of those early episodes that is more artistically made, but once you finish the series you will appreciate it more, even though it's not as popular as many of them...It's an early classic. While Breaking Bad may sound like a superficial show about Walt cooking meth while having fun, episodes like this (and many to come) remind you that an emotional investment is a requirement to watch it.
Saul Goodman can provide plenty of fun and superficial entertainment, but the show never deviates from a hard and heavy emotional drama, which keeps it realistic and more artistic than most material out there. This is even a big difference between BB and its inspired shows like Ozark, which doesn't delve as deep into the soul and psyche of its main characters. But for those who may find it more difficult enjoying the heavy drama aspects of it and prefer the Saul Goodman-type parts of the show, have no fear because there is plenty of that too, creating the perfect "balance" between the two...or should we just refer to it as "chemistry".
Ohhhhh how I love these breaking bad reactions! Nikki and Steve keep em coming!
Edit; Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones in their own respects are two of my favorite shows and I'm so glad you guys have done both!
I'm the same way with BB and GoT, and I'm also glad they went for both. 😃👍
This was one of the greatest episodes in television history! It has the most serious/real scenes and character development ever plus the funniest moments ever as well. Walt & Jesse's (Bryan and Aaron's) dynamic was literally like striking gold for Vince Gilligan.... this show wouldn't have worked without the stars aligning like this!
Tight tight tight!
Your Average Passer-By blue yellow pink whatever man just keep bringing me that
damn man look at that look!
Alright HEISENBORG... next week
Huahauhahuah
I have contemplated that last scene, of Walt hitting the dispenser, so many times. I could be way oof. Because I dont really "get it". But I have come to the conusion that at that moment, Walt was angry because he wasnt going to die. Not because he has an honest death wish. But because all his decisions were based upin the "fact" that he would be dead in a matter of months. He has done some horrible things. He killed a guy with his own hands. He is making poison. In his mind, he is justified, because he had to provide for his family. But now, the truth is, he had more options. Cause he had more time than he thought. So I think he is angry about not dying now. Cause how does he justify his actions now? Plus minus blue hearts!
Yeah, he went to insane length for the sake of leaving money to his family after his death, and now, turns out he's not dying anytime soon. It legit would have been better not to do anything. He lost his justification for murdering people and producing so much meth.
Also the bent reflection in the mirror represents Walt's distorted self image after becoming "Heisenberg"
There was a good amount of points made about Walt's outburst. Him losing control again is a good one, but to me it doesn't make all that much sense. At least not THAT level of anger.
I believe the anger he felt was about the sacrifice. He sees his reflection. He sees the new person he has become. He remembers all that he has done to make money for his family. All because he was going to die.
And now he isn't going to die. He has lied to his wife continuously. He has made drugs that people become addicted to. He has KILLED. He has sacrificed his morality. And now he has to live with those acts. With the new him.
He took the worst path out of all because he thought all paths led to a dead end. But now there's more road. Now where does he go?
Guy I know had a tear in his esophagus in college & they almost had to preform emergency surgery on him. Won’t get into the story of how he got to that point but the docs said if it had been a little bit worse they would have had to do emergency surgery. Had to spend the next 3 months at least taking it very easy, not eating certain foods, no smoking or drinking. He’s fine now
Definitely one of my top 5 favorite episodes of the series! Some say Skinny Pete is still driving off into the desert to this day.
Walt wasn’t on a bridge over water after killing crazy 8, he was parked on a highway overpass.
I got really sick last night and woke up with a really bad headache. This upload is just what I need. Thanks guys!!
I read about a guy once that was told by his doctor that he would be dead within a short time so the guy sold or gave away everything he owned, spent all his money, said goodbye to friends and family and made peace with the fact that he would die soon. Then the doctor told him that he was wrong, the guy wasn't dying after all... the guy got so mad at his doctor that he sued him because he was so prepared to die that he had nothing left of his life so by not dying his life was destroyed. I always think about this guy when I see the last scene of this episode.
The both of you are in for such an incredible journey. It has only just begun. Thank you for another awesome video, yo 🔋🔋🔋🔋☀☀☀☀🌞🌞🌞🌞💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙➕➖
I've always interpreted that last scene as Walt coming to the realization that he has to now live with everything he's done but the comments also bring up some interesting points.
Hank quoting Michael Corleone in Godfather III
No, its actually from sopranos it was silvio's thing.
@@pallerasmussen2525 Godfather III came before Sopranos
I was joking man, waiting People go all Heisenberg on me.
The Rio Grand Goes Through The ABQ
Steven makes the best faces whenever walt does something like have a private emotional outburst lmao
Hank said something crucial: “Just when I think I’m out, they pull me back in” referring to Walts cancer - however I think Walt sees it as his involvement in making meth has an unclear ending at this point...
I mean the way I saw it when I first watched the show, I had assumed that the fact he had to kill, commit crimes, and the suffering he caused his family was sort of for nothing. Plus he was so invested in the business that to loose your only sense of justification for the horrible things he's done. Then having to look in a mirror.. I might punch my image as well lol.
i always thought his outburst on the dispenser was because he broke bad in the 1st place because he thought he was going to die and wanted to make sure his family was looked after when he's gone,after discovering he's in remission it hits him that murdering someone(almost getting killed by tucco)and the rest of the bad that had happened to him was for nothing as now he could live and he broke bad for nothing.
"ahhh...wire" scene has gotta be one of my favorites in BB. Gotta love Jesse!
You both are great! I look foward to these every week! Thank you!!
Strange how my day gets made when you guys post videos. Never thought I’d enjoy reaction videos so much but you guys are the best
Walt was pissed about his remission because it essentially meant he did it all for nothing, but he also lost his reason to do what he now does. He also now has to clean up his own mess as best as he can or continue doing it undetected. It means he has to take responsibility for life, deal with whatever guilt he has, reclaim what humanity or moral boundaries he lost, etc. Basically, he had revolved entire life around his nearing death, and now it’s gone and everything is screwed.
You both have a long road ahead and I can’t wait to reminisce it with you while you take the journey watching my favorite tv show ever 🤯..
This was the first episode I ever saw. I just caught it in tv, got hooked, and went to the beginning.
The reason he hit the paper towel dispenser was because a part of him wanted the results to be bad yet they where good. The reason he wants the results to be bad is because the cancer gives him a excuse to cook meth and, around this time, Walt is beginning to become a worse person and wanting to cook meth because he just likes it and is good at it.
Nice, just found your channel. I always love when reactors actually react and give their thoughts, keep up the good work!
Imagine going through all that hell in the desert, making a metric ton of meth, preparing to cleanly pass away with his family getting his money and not having to come to terms with all the bad things he's done... And having your due date snatched away and now forced to see everything he's done
The reason he flipped out at the end is because his cancer was a primary reason for him cooking meth. Without that he doesn’t have a viable excuse. He’s started to enjoy living so dangerously and doesn’t want to give that up.
The way I rationalized Walt's reaction is that he did all of this fucked up shit for his family because he thought he was going to die. Finding out that his cancer is in remission probably pissed him off because now he has to live with everything he's done, and could still potentially face consequences (such as the law catching up to him) that he otherwise would have avoided by dying.
I think he made his peace with the situation. He cooked one last time, the family has enough money and he doesnt have to deal with all that shit anymore. After the positive diagnosis he realizes its not over. He is maybe afraid he will have to go back to this old life, a life he hated.
Wanted to congragulate you on 150 subs, I can't help but feel I had a small part in getting you there, you guys were at 149 subs and after I subscribed you went up to 150, Just Sayin 😋 but seriously congrats, you guys are awesome 🙌 and I think it's funny that I'm leaving you all these comments in videos no one else has commented on in 2 years lol 😄 hopefully you'll still see them!
I think Walt was mad at himself because of his assumption he almost died in the desert for nothing and really screwed everything up for his folks.
You can't put these reactions out fast enough for me. Great stuff.
23:09 Walt punched the dispenser because his plan got ruined. He was counting on dying - all actions up to that point had that assumption built in, and death was a way out after what his life is become at that point. Surviving meant he had to carry on the lifestyle and keep up with the lies.
Walt's not bummed because his cancer's in remission. This is Heisenberg exalting in his indestructibility and flexing his newfound Tucco power to ignore pain when fighting it out with the world. Watch the next episode and you'll see that's what's happening.
My theory for Walt's outburst at the end was because his whole plan was cook meth, make money, and die. But now that the dying part has been taken off the table the next step will eventually be him getting found out and having to face the consequences of everything he's done
I think Walt reacted to the GOOD news the way he did was because now he wished he had never gotten into the crap he has done so far, it is like now he has past the point of NO RETURN and can't quit.
Yes, I think Walt justified everything because he was going to die and it made it easier for him to do these things, now he may have to face living with all he’s done so far.
7:47 Nikki & Steven best couple ever!!
I love how many interpretations there are about Walter's outburst. x'D And they all work!
I honestly can't properly enjoy a meal if you don't upload a video, it's crazy
This is my favorite episode out of the whole series
Walt is experiencing peak cognitive dissonance. He had justified all of his bad actions up to this point, certain that he was going to die and that his meth-making was necessary. But now that he's faced with the very real possibility that he'll be living a much longer life, all of these bad actions are coming back to haunt him. Maybe they weren't necessary. And more importantly, the prospect of him not making more meth and no longer having to be a badass makes him feel severely emasculated. Remember during the pilot he talked about how he felt "awake." And in S01E06, he had that adrenaline rush from blowing up Tuco's place with fulminated mercury. Now he risks going back to his boring, pre-cancer life.
A simple thought as to way Walt was angry (along with other things people have said in the comments) is that he realizes this may have been all for nothing, nearly dying in the desert, making drugs, and meeting drug dealers, are likely going through his head.
It's like stealing something from someone, and finding out it was going to be given to you, It makes you feel bad.
In an X-RAY, the black parts are the soft tissue, where the radiation penetrates completely. The white parts are densities, the bones, cartilage, masses and the tumors. The bad thing is having white areas where they're not supposed to be.
I think Walt had started to accept his fate and put everything in himself towards it and it is difficult for people to accept sudden huge change even if it is good if it counters what you have accepted as truth/fate in your mind.
Love Jesse, If you think on it- it was because of his build a battery idea that Walt actually got that lightbulb to be able to build it. Walt is a genius, but each situation gets triggered by Jesse being the electricity for those lightbulbs lol
Just when he was trying to get out... They pull him back in.
Steven I agree with you. After Game of Thrones, a show where you're favorite beloved character could die at any moment, I'm now on edge that anyone could die at any time P.S. this is one of my all-time favorite episode of the series. 💙🔋
Wasn't there a study about how your mental health can affect your health and cause malignancies? I'm pretty sure that due to Walt living his new life freely and finally feeling like he's in control of his own life helped with his lung cancer.
My favorite episode of the entire series
My own interpretation of Walt's burst of anger at the end is his remission of cancer means he might actually survive after all and he didn't have to make drugs and kill people and lie to his family, but that is already too late and he has gone too far.
IMO, I believe the cancer and time frame to live is how Walt has prepared himself mentally to justify his illicit activities. He is actually enjoying this moment because he's never felt this alive. What we deemed good news felt like a blow/impediment because he can no longer use the dying man to justify his actions. He sees the business potential and he's not yet ready to give it all up.
I am in cancer remission. I know that remission doesn't mean it's over - EVER! It only means that it might come back, again (it only takes one remaining cancer cell, to start it all over, again). And after the first set of chemotherapy and radiation, you generally can't take any more radiation as it would be too much for your body. So, even with the remission diagnosis, you live under the cloud of it's return and one of your weapons you used to fight it, before (radiation), is gone. Remission is a two sided sword (good news, and maybe bad, too). And if it does return, your body will be weaker to start out, as the prior treatments take their toll on the body. Plus, when/if it does return, you may also be older, with less stamina to go through it again. Cancer haunts survivors.
23:25 Walt was mad because he thought he was going to die and that is why he did all of what he did and he thought he would die and not have to deal with the aftermath. He thought he would be able to jump in, cook, make money, die, and leave the money to his family, and that is it everything would resolve and nobody would ever know. However now he is going to live and now he is neck deep in the drug business and there is no way out or peaceful resolution that he can see.
Here's my take on the bust of the fake Heisenberg. Yes, for whatever reason, Hank was dubious about the bust. Whether he thought it seemed too easy or that something didn't add up or if there was something else on his mind, the "film"makers CLEARLY wanted to convey his doubt to us viewers.
As to any suspicions you the omniscient viewer has, keep something in mind. The sting was engineered by local police. The DEA was simply along for the ride. And there's no reason for them to have suspected that this Heisenberg was a sophisticated criminal mastermind. As far as the drug landscape went, both Krazy 8 and Tuco being out of the picture in quick succession (and Tuco having been taken out by Hank in the "right place and the right time" as opposed to some slick assassin), there's no reason to suspect a criminal genius engineered that void. Nor is there a reason why a good cook/clumsy criminal couldn't have temporarily slid in to fill that void.
My two sense.

Psst....
Thanks for caring, but it was intentional.
Love the music on this show...
There are three groups running reaction video series to Breaking Bad right now, and you guys are by far my favorite (not to mention so dam prolific that by next week you'll probably have passed The Normies, who started a month & a half before you)
Fun little easter egg in case you missed it. In the Walking Dead Season 2 episode 2 “Bloodletting” Daryl reveals his brother's drug stash and it shows a bag of blue meth.
At this point, Walt realizes that not only will he have to live with some of the things that he’s done in an effort to provide for his family, but now he no longer has an excuse to cook. He doesn’t have a reason he can use to rationalize his behavior. He lost his reason to feel powerful and in control of his life for once. He sees his good news as a sign that his life will have to return to normal.
I agree with most points about him having a endpoint and plan before knowing the results. But in addition I think the anger comes from knowing what he has done up to this point is bad and he was willing to do bad knowing he had no choice if he wanted to leave money for his family in the short term he had been given. If he know he would enter remission and have more time.. he may have not gone down this road... looked for another way to set them up
It was cool that Jesse talked about the movie 127 hours a whole year before that movie came out.
Another great episode. I loved how this episode greatly demonstrated the stark differences between Walt and Jesse. Said differences resulted in Walt and Jesse being stranded in the desert and then said standing resulted in them weirdly bonding.
Walt's reaction at the end certainly seems confusing. I mean remission is good news, he should be happy. I see it as Walt actually being pissed that he's going to live. I think he planned to die and cooking all that meth was his last hurrah so to speak. Then his finding out he's getting better negates his plans and takes away his control. It also means he no longer has an excuse to be Heisenberg, which he has obviously grown to like. It also means he may have to actually answer for all the bad shit he's done.

To be frank, I think even Jessie would know that "copper" answer. I know nothing of chemistry and I knew it, lol.
"Ahhh wire" dying
Aaaah... Wire... Still one of the funniest Jesse-moments xD
I think he thought he would never have to pay for his crimes and had come to terms with dying. Now he will have to get away with it.
Another great reaction love u guys
Walt likes being powerful and breaking the law. Having cancer gave him an excuse for doing bad things while still feeling like a good man. Without the cancer he either has to go back into his former persona, which he doesn't(or no longer) like, or admit he isnt really the good man he pretends to be. he likes the thrills.
He was mad because he did all this stuff because he was gonna die. Then he doesn't and now he's stuck with this new life.
"ahh a wire" gets me every time
