@@jackiechan5815Also, Jesse’s development arc is the exact opposite of Walt’s. While, Walt was a good man gone bad… By the end of the series Jesse was a bad kid who became a good man by the end.
One of my favourite parts of this is Mike being absolutely confused, he doesn't even have a guess as to what Jesse has in mind, and for at least a few seconds he has to be wondering if Jesse plans on just using the shovel to beat the heck out of the guys.
Youre naive to think Tucker and Gary arent the same. Ive known 'bud' dealers as Buddy. Foolish of the 2nd guy to use the real name. Or we could assume Tucker was entirely different, but like Jesse says, he knows meth heads
This scene is legitimately scary if you put yourself in Jessie's shoes. Tweakers are unpredictable as fuck, they're stimmed up and likely haven't slept in days so logic is barely an option with the thoughts in their brain.
@@Pasclesrm Jesse isn't the protagonist of breaking bad, he's also not by definition a hero. He's one of the main characters, a deuteragonist/anti hero, Walter White is a tragic villain. The actual protagonists are technically Hank and Walter's family because they're really the only ones in the show with an understanding of what's right and wrong.
Tucker's hard work paid off when he was spotted digging by a couple construction workers. After all these years, Tucker is working construction and clean.
After the end of the Blue Meth Empire, Tucker made a positive choice and got clean. He took his digging experience and created a new workout craze of aerobic digging. Crossfit fanatics swarmed to it. Tucker has opened up several studios and helped end NM's use of meth. Also, the myth that unicorn farts create rainbows has been scientifically proven to be true.🦄🌈
2:33 That's a beautiful front door. I never noticed it before, but it adds quite the contrast in that shot when it's put next to all the junk and clutter inside the house.
Yup this is pretty accurate. Lived with a M-head for 6 months, the dude would sit behind the front door all night with a shotgun thinking people were going to break into the house. Would wake me up the middle of the night because he thought someone was putside watching him through the windows. He eventually fired off a shot in the backyard towards the shadow people. I go outside and tell him nobody is there. Even locked himself in the bathroom and barricaded the door so nobody would break in. Crazy stuff but worst roommate experience of my life
@@HutchFTW it wasn't like that for the first 4 months, but he apparently lost his job and went off on the deep end towards those last two months. Just gradually got worse. Yes the rent was cheap
I also had a drug addict neighbor once, though more Heroin, 2 years of him trying to get clean and falling back into old habits because if his shithead "friends". He had been doing hard stuff since his early teens, so his brain was mush and you just saw it in his face. He was a good person at heart, but his addiction mixed with his fried brain made him be a bad person, including one time he kicked in my door. Luckily nothing serious ever happened, but it was a lot of small stuff, especially noise disturbances.
Tucker was my favorite character on BB. A shame we didn't see a reprisal in BCS. Oh well, I'll never forget his courteous nature allowing Jesse a chance to use the toilet & the digging.. Oh man, the digging..
arguably the greatest, most impactful scene in arguably the greatest series ever.. summarises the essence / message of the show.. stay away from drugs!

@@patrickmccutcheon8860 Nah, dog. That stuff is full of clays and caliche. It can be a real nightmare to dig by hand. I guess it all depends on which part of New Mexico you're in.

Yeah people like to think that Mike was somehow a good guy but he had no problems whatsoever helping to sell poison to people and destroy lives because it made him rich. In BCS he gets called out by Nacho`s father for it, which may be a nod by the writers to point out none of them are good people.
Yeah. Amphetamine use causes psychosis with strong paranoia. It's a mix of the over-stimulation from constant high dopamine release compounded by lack of sleep, probably with a touch of knowing you're committing a felony. Meth users will start looking for cameras in their walls, look out the window for feds and police, start doubting if people they know are even real. Makes them extremely prone to suggestion, but also unpredictable, especially if you get them nervous. It also causes hyper-fixation, especially on repetitive tasks. Jesse never specified what he was digging for, only that the other guy already knew what was down there. He let that guy fill in the blank with whatever weird impulse came to mind. Dude probably didn't even remember why he was digging anymore or that someone was in the house, only that he was already digging so it's probably what he should be doing.

@@darksideofevil13 Depends on the person, but, yeah, both of the tweekers play the parts well. Some people become more angry than others. Some get more talkative. But, pretty accurate mannerisms for both.
This scene is one of the most intense of the entire show. It’s also super accurate as far as meth heads are concerned. I grew up in a methy neighborhood and I’d find my neighbors disassembling their cars in the middle of the night, accusing neighbors of bugging their houses, cleaning windows by scratching the dust off with their fingernails…. Meth turns people into living zombies.
The most unrealistic part is the bong not breaking when tuckers bf got knocked out XD. i'm pretty sure i could break a bong by running to fast lol. Glad to see this again, its one of the few scenes that shows jesse's wisdom

You're supposed to hand dig where the lines are marked. He's fine.
