I believe the reason Gus was suspicious was because he knew someone was making a play after Jesse said the boy was poisoned. Gus has been on the cartels hit list for a so long that he has become very hypervigilant. Similar to how people with PTSD are triggered by certain cues, Gus gets a subconscious feeling that something isn't right. Our brains are great at picking up cues for self preservation , even when we don't know why we have these bad feelings.
...Or, there might not necessarily be anything subconscious about it; Jesse was being very passive-aggressive when he told Gus that Brock was poisoned, especially the way he said "no one knows how", almost like he was low-key accusing Gus of doing it right to his face. There's no way Gus didn't pick up on that, if he did in fact poison Brock he knows Jesse at the very least suspects him, and then all of a sudden this whole scenario of Jesse refusing to leave the hospital and forcing Gus to come and talk to him personally starts to feel like a ploy to draw him out. I mean, this is exactly the sort of paranoia you *need* to survive in the drug game for 20 years.
Good points and I think that they are carrying a device that can detect electronic equipment. I don’t want to spoil anything, but doesn’t [redacted name] tell [redacted name] to buy one these [redacted] when the trio meet in the desert next season? That’s when [redacted name] was looking for things on the cars.
Hank’s reason for NEVER being suspicious of Walt comes down to his hang ups on what makes a man a man. Hank definitely respects Walt’s intellect, but doesn’t see Walt as masculine enough to be a drug kingpin. Look at how Hank suffers when dealing with his PTSD and how he tries to hide it. When we are introduced to Hank in the first episode he just seems like a brash good old boy, but it’s so much deeper than that. Hank has a concept of what it means to be a man and he suffers a lot trying to live up to that ideal himself. It’s IMPOSSIBLE for him to suspect Walt. He can believe Walt could make money on gambling- is even impressed by that, but that mild-mannered, weak, afraid of holding a gun, completely not masculine Walt could be Heisenberg? Nope. It doesn’t cross his mind. Doesn’t come within shouting distance of crossing his mind. I think he also considers Walt a good dude, and that plays a role, but not as much as Hank’s major character journey which examines the characteristics of masculinity. And what I love is that it’s not ham handed. It’s subtle and the layers of Hank peel away over time from that initial impression he makes on the viewer. The themes are really pretty ahead of their time. You could see a character today hampered by trying to be a MAN and it probably wouldn’t be handled with as much finesse. But for the early 2000s to tackle it so deftly is just another in the long list of why this show is sooooo good.
@@83gemm I do agree that's how Hank was written but also remember noticing how he didn't react that strongly at the initial assumption that nerdy borderline effeminate Gale was Heisenberg and only started believing he wasn't after Walt's drunken self-important comment
@@snooks5607 Yeah, but that's because they found the lab notes in Gale's apartment after he was shot dead. He didn't have a moment like that with Walter.
You can say thing like how it's ahead of its time and how a show from the early 2000's can be so good, but honestly, we've regressed. Stuff that comes out now sucks. What do we have now that Breaking Bad didn't have? CGI graphics and 10x the budget with 1/4 the skill? Movies and TV Shows peaked around 2000 and everything that comes out now is garbage in comparison.
That shot at the end of Episode 11 where it slowly pans out with him in the crawl space after hysterically laughing is such genius writing. Can't wait to see the reactions for the finale.
Walter: Lays out explicitly and concisely why Gus would poison Brock, in order to manipulate Jesse into killing Walter. Asia: But why would he do that? I love your reactions, watch so many, but you guys do get confused a heck of a lot
I think that's the whole theme for the entire show. Walt just can't ever give in or even accept a draw. He just can't shut up and always has to have the last word.
Asia and BJ, I'm glad you don't get too many comments from people being critical about things you miss or don't understand. I think you both do really well considering all of the details in the show. Some details are shown openly in the show, and others are quick, or you are left to put the detalts together yourself. I'm sure your viewers have already seen the show, and many have watched it more than once, so of course they know what's going on. Also, when Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul aired, there were SO many podcasts and social media sites to go to and hear/learn more about the episodes, and that's how many people got clarity about things they didn't understand when they watched it. I totally love your reactions and look forward to them whenever they pop up!
This is why i love rewatching series sometimes, i didnt notice Ted stummbling over the rug, when skylar was at the door. 8:25 Good lord the foreshadowing...
Crawl Space was such an iconic episode to me. Definitely my favorite. Safe to say i have been waiting for this episode since DAY ONE. Thanks Asia and BJ
"he gon die in the shade" 😂😂 true fact about that scene: the shadowing of the sky was completely natural and unplanned, no CGI or special fx, pure natural. the filming crew was overly hyped at how perfectly it all worked out, jumping around in gas mode lol. to have such a dark speech from gus and a scary moment for walt, the overcasting of the sky couldn't have came at a more precise time to set the scenes atmosphere. ayoo walts cackle in the back while skyler is on the phone has me dead every time. super serious scene but damn that laugh gets me 😂 absolutely amazing acting from mr cranston.
As mentioned earlier, the mention of poison got Gus' attention. The last thing he wants at this point is for his location or movements to be known by anyone but his people. He realizes, after meeting with Jesse, that he was at the hospital as Jesse's request. Therefore Walt (or perhaps surviving cartel members?) might know where he is. He chooses therefore to make an unpredictable movement and abandons his car and presumably takes a cab instead.
@@johannahvetinlaya908 Yuh...I wish I could afford to subscribe to their patreon, but when the SVB Bank crashed in March I lost all my savings. The Gvt bailed out all the Tech Millionaires, but us "little guys" got screwed. So...as a retired Army Vet, I gotta be very frugal as to where I spend my pension.
Crawl Space is my episode!!! This and Face Off are easily my faves of the show. For so many reasons, and on so many levels. Bottom line, Walt was willing to eat crow, take his family, and run. That got screwed. So he used his brains and completely ousted Gus.
I think Guss picked up on it because of context. It's actually brilliant writing. I'll try not to spoil anything and therefore chose my words carefully.. but we'll never talk about this scene again but it's one of my favorite ones in the whole BBuniverse. Guss understands people and their POV. He understands Jesse really cares about kids and he also understands that Jesse thinks Guss doesn't give a damn about kids. Most importantly I guess though is Guss' understanding of Walter. He knows Walter is aware of all these things as well. In the end it might just be the dialog with Jesse that seemed odd and the fact he was forced to get there personally in the first place. He is a cautious man. It seemed like a perfect trap. It didn't have to be one. But why take your chances?
yes. once he knew the kid was poisoned and not ill. his demeanor completely changed. Gus is a smart man, the only other person it could be is Walt. So he becomes aware and start to think ahead. And could assume Walter and Jesse are now working together. Thats why he gives him the week off
19:00 "I will kill...(your family)" is what Skylar knew was a very real possibility the moment she finally learned exactly what Walt was doing & why she was so freaked out & adament about him stopping or having to leave the family, etc. 🍿🥂.
What hospital has a whole floor of empty parking? All of them around here are constantly at least 95% full during the day. He didn't know the car had been messed with but realized the location was a good setup for it. I recall seeing Gus take some sort of antidote before opening the Tequila in that cartel episode.
BJ - Jessie tells Gus that Brock was poisoned, so if Gus didn't do it, he thinks about who might have and why. He follows that thread and puzzles it out.
Gus had realized his visit to the hospital was a ploy and the fact his car was parked with no other cars around. His mind went "click." A perfect place for an ambush attack.
Gus plays an intense game of chess. You have to be at least four moves ahead of him. I forgot how intense and engaging these two episodes are. I giggled when you both leaned forward, perfectly synced when you realized that Walt was planning to blow up Gus' car. 🔥
You guys are in for the best season of television that has (arguably) ever been created. Hold on to your hats cause you aint seen nothing yet. (I'm actually a tad jealous because I would love to watch BB season 5 for the first time all over again!) I'm excited for you
You guys are the best and ya'll rare eally in your groove now. I keep askin' myself why I am watching you watch a series I've seen start-to-finish 3 times already. The answer is simple: you guys are such a joy to watch. I bet you're making a lot of folks happy.
Since you got started, I couldn‘t wait for you two to see the last scene of Crawl Space. Still blows my mind every time. But it‘ll never be like seeing it the first time.
A little OFF topic but it's kinda wild to see our funny man Bill Burr as the tough guy getting Ted to write that cheque, especially after all the Bill Burr comedy routines I've seen you react to!!! lol
If you make the jump to Fring knowing about the ricin then his motivation for poisoning the kid is clear. As Walt stated, it makes sense that Jesse would blame Walt, as he's the only one (to the best of Jesse's knowledge) to know about the Ricin. But also, as Walt said, what would be Walt's motivation to poison Brock?
There was a great video about why Gus was suspicious. He knew that Brock had been poisoned, and he also knew that he was not responsible for it. He tightly reasoned that Brock had been poisoned in order to get him to the hospital.
He's suspicious because of what Pinkman's just told him (kid's been poisoned). He recognises it could be a manipulative play by Walter to get Pinkman on side, and Gus out into the open. It's two clever people using Pinkman (and the kid) as pawns.
Gus, Jesse, Mike did not give the ricin to the Eladio crew. Gus poisoned the bottle they drank on his own. Gus was not aware of the ricin cigarette that Jesse had. The cigarette would still be on him up until episode 11. EDIT: oh nvm they know
The last 2 episodes of S5 probably my favorite singular episodes of the show but this is my favorite string of episodes. This was peak dramatic thriller television
I’ve binged this series twice. This will be the third time watching it since it aired. I enjoy the reactions on your channels but I really have gotten into these! Ready for the finale asap lol
i love how you guys talk out episodes you always make it tempting to tell ya what happened i imagine you already know but i love watching you guys react
38:36 - He's paranoid and suspicious because Walt's plan is absolutely something he would try himself. And he has seen Walt near his car like 10 times now lol
I just realized rewatching this that Ted running and the oranges falling is similar to how the Godfather would use oranges as a sign that someone was going to die
Gus knows that somebody poisoned the little boy and it wasn't him and at the hospital he left his car unattended so his red flag went up quickly and I just realized that the black guy that always stands there silently maybe a double agent working for the cartel and Gustavo😮
Let's get it - my number 1 #BB reactors - love watching you two react to this show - you take it 'show by show' like us og viewers did when it first aired - don't listen to these others who try to ''solve it'' (even though they cheat and check it out on social media) - nobody back in the day expected what was coming in this masterpiece.
It's an established fact that many people can sense intense/prolonged observation....intuition....sixth sense.... call it whatever you want....hell even some higher level snipers are trained to not watch their targets too closely for too long because they could spook and blow the operation
Gus was suspicious because at the last second, he realized that he was not at that spot of his own volition. Since Gus has everything locked down at all times, he noticed that this time and place was not of his choosing, and therefore froze, and assesed. 1% of lost control was enough to make him suspicious.
Gus figured that Jesse knew why and who poisoned the boy. When Jesse said they didn't know why he was poisned. It hit Gus that Jesse had to know and probably told Walt and drew Gus in.
Gus suspected someone wanted to kill him but he needed to be sure whether it was by bomb or sniper. He looked around there to check for snipers, soon as he knew it wasn't a sniper it clicked that it must be a bomb on the car
I love you guy's breaking everything down and hearing your opinions after each episode. I have really enjoyed watching your reactions to this great show. Can't wait for your next episode reaction!
It is not as good as several things (Red Wedding, the best scenes across movies such as Shawshank and There Will Be Blood and David Lynch), but it might very well be the best moment of this entire series. I guess if this series is your favorite thing ever, and it is top moment to you, then it is the best.
When Gus killed the cartel guys it wasn't Jessie's ricin cigarette it was Gus poisoning the tequila. The ricin cigarette was originally for Jessie to try to kill Gus. Jessie was hiding it in one of his cigarettes that he would transfer to a new cigarette pack each time he bought a new pack of cigarettes.
When Gus made the threat to kill Walt’s baby, that’s when I knew he did order those thugs to kill Tomas. Even tho Walt is going off the deep end, he is right in wanting to kill Gus.
As episode 11 wraps up I enjoy your reactions better than anyone else's..... You guys crack me up / i luv ya !!! (I've watched complete series 5+ times)
As the season comes to an end, everything gets more and more intense from Gus threading to kill Walt’s family to Jesse and Walt teaming up to kill Gus and especially with Brock in the hospital. This is my favorite season of the show. And the Crawlspace episode should have gotten Bryan Cranston his fourth Emmy, especially by the end where he screams and laughs from everything that’s lead up to that point, but since he won three in a row for the first three seasons, they wanted to give someone else a chance to win. Great reactions guys, I hope you’re doing well and will have a great weekend. Take care!
Gus got suspicious after Jesse said the boy was poisoned. Gus went from telling Jesse to work, to telling Jesse to stay. As Gus walked back to his car, he thought about who would poison the boy and why, and realized that he had been drawn out into the open.
I think he figured it out by reading Jesse’s mannerisms when he was telling him Brock was poisoned, since jesse didn’t kill Walter, he prolly figured that him and Walt had a convo and was plottin.
always cold feet could perhaps be from bad blood circulation, btw I have no idea how to fix it if it is lol just what a nurse told me when I asked about mom always had cold feet
the truth is that it's just TV magic to make it more suspenseful. But my head canon is that gus realized he didn't leave anyone to watch the car, and the dude has seen far too much shit go down in the cartel
You guys need to watch breaking bad. I promise you’ll love it. It goes much deeper with Gus and other big characters from breaking bad. It’s a prequel to breaking bad.
Thank you for making it easier to watch this masterpiece again with internet friends! The closest thing to BB/BCS’s level that I’ve watched since (other than older shows like The Wire) is Barry. Similar situation of a historically comedic actor (in this case Bill Hader) playing a deeply troubled violent anti-hero. Very, very well crafted show if you’re looking for something newer that even approaches this level.
"HOW" would ANYONE else, OTHER THAN Walt and Jesse, KNOW WHAT was in that particular cigarette? As we see Jesse scrambling thru' his pk to find that EXACT poisoned cigarette? "WHO" else would know?
So... Walter was just going to disappear himself and his family and only protect Hank by having Saul call the DEA to warn that there was a hit out on him? That would only potentially work for so long. Gus would have gotten the job done eventually, and Walter must have known that. So, if Walter was planning on leaving Hank high and dry anyway... then why go through the effort of disappearing his family? Gus said he wouldn't harm them if he left him, his operation, and Jesse alone. Walter could have just opted out, stayed put, and lived a normal life if he wasn't going to try to save Hank.
Man, I've been in a situation ONCE in my life where I was so stressed that I went from crying straight into hysterical laughter. When I found out my husband was cheating on me and I went to confront the other woman....only to realize he had lied about her name, too. I walked out of that workplace and just LOST IT, just like that. Momentary insanity to cope with the emotions.
40:27 "LIke Porofessor X or somethn'" Crack me up, B.J..But it's too bad Walter didn't know how to use a rifle..when Gus was totally exposed looking around,..a peach of a shot for any deer hunter/soldier, or half the guys at my gun club!
I believe the reason Gus was suspicious was because he knew someone was making a play after Jesse said the boy was poisoned. Gus has been on the cartels hit list for a so long that he has become very hypervigilant. Similar to how people with PTSD are triggered by certain cues, Gus gets a subconscious feeling that something isn't right. Our brains are great at picking up cues for self preservation , even when we don't know why we have these bad feelings.
our lizard brain is something people need to learn to listen to.
...Or, there might not necessarily be anything subconscious about it; Jesse was being very passive-aggressive when he told Gus that Brock was poisoned, especially the way he said "no one knows how", almost like he was low-key accusing Gus of doing it right to his face.

I mean, this is exactly the sort of paranoia you *need* to survive in the drug game for 20 years.
He also JUST poisoned like 50% of the cartel leadership at Don Eladio's party, so him being scared of assassination is reasonably justified.
The last time Gus saw Jesse they were on friendly terms. Now Jesse is practically spitting in his face. Gus knows something is up.

Most importantly I guess though is Guss' understanding of Walter. He knows Walter is aware of all these things as well.

these reaction videos cant come soon enough lol- I'm refreshing youtube every day hoping theres a new Breaking Bad reaction video from Asia and BJ!!
Gus had realized his visit to the hospital was a ploy and the fact his car was parked with no other cars around. His mind went "click." A perfect place for an ambush attack.
That laughing at the end was ABSOLUTELY Joker-esque! Bryan Cranston could totally play the Clown Prince of Crime!
And then he immediately masterminded a Jokeresque plan.
14:18 In case you missed it, Kuby is played by Bill Burr. Ol' Billy Redhead back before he went bald.
Asia's evil 'hehehehe' at 9:52 is definitely within the spirit of Breaking Bad.

- Huell, are you happy? - Reasonably 😑
If you noticed Gustavo took some pills prior to the shot of tequila, to counteract the poison somewhat at least
Telekinesis: moving objects with the mind
Telepathy: ability to sense events before they happen or communicate via the mind
i love how you guys talk out episodes you always make it tempting to tell ya what happened i imagine you already know
but i love watching you guys react
38:36 - He's paranoid and suspicious because Walt's plan is absolutely something he would try himself. And he has seen Walt near his car like 10 times now lol
Man y’all just wait!! Next episode is gonna be mind blowing!! 😏
I just realized rewatching this that Ted running and the oranges falling is similar to how the Godfather would use oranges as a sign that someone was going to die
Pic is from 4x13 I think...
No it’s the last scene for 12 but also the opening of 4.13
Gus knows that somebody poisoned the little boy and it wasn't him and at the hospital he left his car unattended so his red flag went up quickly and I just realized that the black guy that always stands there silently maybe a double agent working for the cartel and Gustavo😮
The foreshadowing at 8:22 with Ted. These little things you notice after rewatching. 😊
If you want a laugh, watch these two try to follow what's going on in any tv series or movie, absolute gold 😂😂😂
Let's get it - my number 1 #BB reactors - love watching you two react to this show - you take it 'show by show' like us og viewers did when it first aired - don't listen to these others who try to ''solve it'' (even though they cheat and check it out on social media) - nobody back in the day expected what was coming in this masterpiece.
Hey stiofan! Wow, much love Fam!
Thanks 💯
I never noticed Ted's foreshadowing trip on the rug LMAOO! Too good.
It's an established fact that many people can sense intense/prolonged observation....intuition....sixth sense.... call it whatever you want....hell even some higher level snipers are trained to not watch their targets too closely for too long because they could spook and blow the operation
Breaking Bad didn't make the mistake that The Walking Dead did. They ended it after season 5 and never "Jumped The Shark".
This episode is the first time I ever saw Bill Burr. He's great in this.
Gus was suspicious because at the last second, he realized that he was not at that spot of his own volition. Since Gus has everything locked down at all times, he noticed that this time and place was not of his choosing, and therefore froze, and assesed. 1% of lost control was enough to make him suspicious.
Gus's change of attitude when Jesse tells him the kid was poisoned, then realizing he might have been lured there...
Gus figured that Jesse knew why and who poisoned the boy. When Jesse said they didn't know why he was poisned. It hit Gus that Jesse had to know and probably told Walt and drew Gus in.
Gus suspected someone wanted to kill him but he needed to be sure whether it was by bomb or sniper. He looked around there to check for snipers, soon as he knew it wasn't a sniper it clicked that it must be a bomb on the car
I love you guy's breaking everything down and hearing your opinions after each episode. I have really enjoyed watching your reactions to this great show. Can't wait for your next episode reaction!
Hey Cryptic!
Thanks, much love to you Fam! ☺️
Gus knew that it was a perfect opportunity for Walt to do something.
The crawl space scene is the best thing I've ever seen in a movie or tv show..
It is not as good as several things (Red Wedding, the best scenes across movies such as Shawshank and There Will Be Blood and David Lynch), but it might very well be the best moment of this entire series.
I guess if this series is your favorite thing ever, and it is top moment to you, then it is the best.
@@Harkness78 it's all subjective..
it's one of my favourites too, as well as the sequence in Walt's house in "Ozymandias"
When Gus killed the cartel guys it wasn't Jessie's ricin cigarette it was Gus poisoning the tequila. The ricin cigarette was originally for Jessie to try to kill Gus. Jessie was hiding it in one of his cigarettes that he would transfer to a new cigarette pack each time he bought a new pack of cigarettes.
When Gus made the threat to kill Walt’s baby, that’s when I knew he did order those thugs to kill Tomas.
Even tho Walt is going off the deep end, he is right in wanting to kill Gus.
Can't wait till the next episode, get the blanket ready Asia... 😆
Asia called Walt a peanut head 🤣
Gus is prepared for the cat and mouse game after dealing with Lalo Salamanca in Better Call Saul.
I love that 2 comidians, Lavell Crawford and Bill Burr, are the debt collectors.
Jesse said that the boy was poisoned. That's what aroused Gustavo's suspicions.
As episode 11 wraps up I enjoy your reactions better than anyone else's..... You guys crack me up / i luv ya !!! (I've watched complete series 5+ times)
Hector is Stephen Hawking of criminals
As the season comes to an end, everything gets more and more intense from Gus threading to kill Walt’s family to Jesse and Walt teaming up to kill Gus and especially with Brock in the hospital. This is my favorite season of the show. And the Crawlspace episode should have gotten Bryan Cranston his fourth Emmy, especially by the end where he screams and laughs from everything that’s lead up to that point, but since he won three in a row for the first three seasons, they wanted to give someone else a chance to win. Great reactions guys, I hope you’re doing well and will have a great weekend. Take care!
Gus got suspicious after Jesse said the boy was poisoned. Gus went from telling Jesse to work, to telling Jesse to stay. As Gus walked back to his car, he thought about who would poison the boy and why, and realized that he had been drawn out into the open.
I think he figured it out by reading Jesse’s mannerisms when he was telling him Brock was poisoned, since jesse didn’t kill Walter, he prolly figured that him and Walt had a convo and was plottin.
Can't wait for the next episode. Asia gonna be traumatized over the hilarity
always cold feet could perhaps be from bad blood circulation, btw I have no idea how to fix it if it is lol
just what a nurse told me when I asked about mom always had cold feet
The end scene of ep 11 is a masterpiece
the truth is that it's just TV magic to make it more suspenseful. But my head canon is that gus realized he didn't leave anyone to watch the car, and the dude has seen far too much shit go down in the cartel
You guys need to watch breaking bad. I promise you’ll love it. It goes much deeper with Gus and other big characters from breaking bad.
It’s a prequel to breaking bad.
Thank you for making it easier to watch this masterpiece again with internet friends! The closest thing to BB/BCS’s level that I’ve watched since (other than older shows like The Wire) is Barry. Similar situation of a historically comedic actor (in this case Bill Hader) playing a deeply troubled violent anti-hero. Very, very well crafted show if you’re looking for something newer that even approaches this level.
"" He Got It...Have some faith in your boy ! " Asia setting BJ straight !!!
"HOW" would ANYONE else, OTHER THAN Walt and Jesse, KNOW WHAT was in that particular cigarette? As we see Jesse scrambling thru' his pk to find that EXACT poisoned cigarette? "WHO" else would know?
If you notice through out all these seasons some of the episodes are produced by Bryan Cranston aka the actor who plays Walter White
I have really enjoyed rewatching this show with you guys!
This show was the best!
In my opinion, That ending in the crawl space is when Heisenberg took full control. It’s like watching a real time fugue
So... Walter was just going to disappear himself and his family and only protect Hank by having Saul call the DEA to warn that there was a hit out on him? That would only potentially work for so long. Gus would have gotten the job done eventually, and Walter must have known that. So, if Walter was planning on leaving Hank high and dry anyway... then why go through the effort of disappearing his family? Gus said he wouldn't harm them if he left him, his operation, and Jesse alone. Walter could have just opted out, stayed put, and lived a normal life if he wasn't going to try to save Hank.
“I think he was targeting the front door.”
That’s what I think too!
Man, I've been in a situation ONCE in my life where I was so stressed that I went from crying straight into hysterical laughter. When I found out my husband was cheating on me and I went to confront the other woman....only to realize he had lied about her name, too. I walked out of that workplace and just LOST IT, just like that. Momentary insanity to cope with the emotions.
The acting in season 4 and 5 is just outstanding
40:27 "LIke Porofessor X or somethn'" Crack me up, B.J..But it's too bad Walter didn't know how to use a rifle..when Gus was totally exposed looking around,..a peach of a shot for any deer hunter/soldier, or half the guys at my gun club!
Yeah but then his bodyguards know where he is.
