    I always liked how Gilligan explained it. The show isn't about the transformation of Walter into Heisenberg. It's about uncovering what was always within Walter through the gain of power, money, and respect.

    Lydia was more than just a loose end, she was an active threat to Skyler and Walter’s children. She’d put a hit on just about anyone, even confessing to Walt about putting out a hit on Mike. Later that day, when Skyler told Walt about the Knotsies’ late night visit, Im sure he put two & two together, satisfied that making Lydia a killer cup of tea was the right call. Her calling Todd’s phone at the end was just the cherry on top.

    The one thing that struck me at first with this show was, Walter did a literal perfect 180, he cared about his family first and foremost while facing the horrid reality of cancer and saw Jesse as a tool to ensure he could provide for them as much as he could and eventually, he may have not realized it or didn't admit it, but he ended up caring about nobody else, but himself AND Jesse because he eventually saw his prodigy in him since Jesse has managed to perfect his craft the same way Walt did.

      @@cl5470 I think he cared in a way, but ultimately his constant excuse of "doing it for my family" was really just a smoke screen, at least after the first cook. Once he found something he was good at it fed his ego, an ego that was already massive but being starved from a lack of attention from his family, piers and society in general. After that he was only ever in it for him, the whole family excuse was just a way for him to justify his actions to himself and others.
      Perfect example is how he turns down the offer of treatment from his former Grey Matter colleagues. If he really truly just cared about his family he would have taken the money without hesitation. But his ego wouldnt let him take a handout and he would have to give up cooking, the one thing in his life that was feeding his ego.

    One aspect that nearly everyone gets wrong about Walter White: he didn’t transform into anyone else, he was always ruthless and power hungry.
    We get the impression that he changed over the seasons, but that’s not it. When he was first presented, he was a meak, defeated man, but underneath that, he always had a giant ego and lust for recognition and power.
    It’s when he gets that recognition and power that we get to learn who he is and always was from the very beginning.

    • @judywright4241
      @judywright4241 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I like the tease of how Walter became how he is. He went to visit Gretchen’s family and being intimidated (then angered over feeling that they thought they were better than he was) by their easy elegance, he walks out, breaking Gretchen’s heart with no explanation.
      He doesn’t talk to his mother about his diagnosis, makes fun of her to Skylar and even Walter Jr.. When Junior makes a GoFundMe for Walter, he’s enraged and trying to hide it, being chastised for his ‘pride’. He wouldn’t take a job at GrayMatter because of ‘pride’.
      We get his view of his own life is in the speech after being beaten up, to Junior. Talking of his fear and disgust as his father’s weakness, illness and death. Yet Junior reassures him, ‘This is real, so much better than how fake you’ve been this past year.’ Walter, clearly hears what Junior says but his shame stays the same.
      He’s a weak, scared man and tells Hank that, until his diagnosis, and he felt like anything goes because of his ‘death sentence’ has been imposed already.

  • @universaldragonninja
    @universaldragonninja 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +59

    What stands out to me the most is that Walter ultimately died alone. Jesse had his friends help him escape. If Walter could just embrace his friends and family and let people help him he would’ve had a very different life. His unwillingness to accept help and his tenacity to always have to prove he is the biggest and baddest is what ultimately led to his downfall. Time and time again in the show whenever he jump ahead to be in charge he ended up losing more than he gain. All because he refused to be a team player. He convinced himself that everyone pitied him when in reality a lot of his peers and family only wanted the best for him. After he became heisenberg and took over the business is when i noticed people pity him. He became this shallow self centered selfish man. I think it serves as a cautionary tale, to not let our insecurities and doubts consume us.

    • @judywright4241
      @judywright4241 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I loved the layers to the story we can only guess at. We see Walter making fun of his mother, how important appearances were over the truth, especially as he is recounting his father’s death to Walter Jr. He acts like he is going to see his mother but doesn’t even bother. He felt intimidated by his fiancé’s parents’ home and abruptly walks out without ever explaining why, his shame. He rages about having ACCEPTED the 5K as a ‘payout’ he initially felt good about, and bought the little house. He sees weakness in accepting help, is that because mom had to seek help OR was she the model that appearances are all that matter?
      It sets up that with Marie & Skylar since we don’t know why Marie steals, but we do see her pretending at other lives and taking trophies for it. When Skylar gets in trouble because she takes the tiara back to the store, she’s protective of her sister and has a great ‘I’m about to give birth in this closet!’
      That poor manager, taking the time to protest, ‘This is my OFFICE!’ She gets out of it and in recounting the vignette to Walter, we see the guilt on Walter’s face as he asks what she would do if HE had done something wrong. She laughingly says, she’d turn him in, yet her ACTIONS show she’d go for appearances being more important than the truth. What had these two sisters been brought up that one, while toying in theft and lies, is condemning of Skylar going along with Walter.

    I feel like the people on both extremes are wrong - the ones who condemn him as the ultimate monster and those who forgive all his actions as the tragic hero, alike. I always took Walt as the ultimate cautionary tale - what happens when you suppress your inner drive and desires all your life, then suddenly have them given a wildly destructive outlet.
    In that way I feel like Walt is who all of us could become. His great flaw was his enormous, raging ego, that's pretty much un-debatable.... but I believe that the only reason that ego was so insatiable was because of how much of his life he spent being a good little boy and meekly doing as he was told. Like a container filling with pressure until it just bursts. If only he'd had some productive way to bleed off that need for validation and success now and again.

      The one thing that prevents me from really feeling too much sympathy for him is the fact that his mediocrity is his own making. He left Gretchen and Grey Matter after meeting her wealthy family and feeling inferior to them, which started his downward spiral. Then he convinced Skyler to buy a house they couldn't afford because he was certain his genius would lead to wealth down the road, but then he ended up as a high school teacher. It's definitely sad but I feel like if he'd swallowed his pride with Grey Matter then he would have had the life he felt he deserved.

    I think it’s also important to note that after they take down tuco, Walt and jesse agreed their drug run would be much cleaner than tucos. This was very believable because they struggled so much after dissolving their first kill in the bathtub. Then not much later when one of jesses men get robbed when dealing, walt gives Jesse a gun and tells him to “take care of it” because that’s what tuco did to gain respect. This is insane to me because he made Jesse believe their empire was “better” and more “moral” than the competition.

    My take on Walter White is that he was never good. "Heisenberg" was always who he was especially in the Gray Matter days. His own arrogance and insecurity led him to blow up that opportunity and he created and settled into the facade of the high school teacher because he had to. His Meth empire allowed him to rediscover his true self.

    Walt, Jesse, Mike, Saul, and Gus, all their stories have one thing in common - actions have consequences. And the life-lesson to take away from both BB and BCS is this:
    Doing the right thing may not always guarantee the right outcome, but doing the wrong thing will always lead to bad results, and if you think that doing what's bad will bring good to you, you're very much mistaken, as all of them found out.

    Just because others around him might have been more evil (Tuco, Gus, Todd, Jack), doesn't mean he was a good person. But yeah, he really did care for Jesse, he reveals it when in half-concious state, first calling Walt Jr "Jesse", that suggests he thinks of Jesse as his "better" son (also, he once called Jesse "son" explicitly), later in lab when he admits he's feeling guilty about Jane's death. That being said, he still has a capacity to hurt him. Tbf, him putting Jesse over Walt Jr might be because he reinforces his ego - while Walt Jr admires Hank more than his father, it seems that Jesse admires Walt more than anyone else.

    Impulsivity seems to be a trait in my opinion. Walter is human and tends to repress his feelings. Sometimes he has a burst of energy to let everything out.

    Great video! One note, that I’ve actually seen commonly misrepresented in these kinds of videos, is why exactly he got Gale replaced. It was a rare act of selflessness, trying to find the best outcome for Skyler, Hank and Jesse so that they’d all be better off and like him again. I’d also argue that he was actually capable of establishing an intimate relationship with Gale, being more open and nicer to him than with anyone the first time around.

    Breaking Bad is by far one of the greatest shows of all time. Some of the best writing and acting. I put Top boy, and Snowfall int this category as well. Walter was such a well written and performed character. In the beginning you truly feel for him, and love him and hope everything works out. By the end it gets so hard to love him anymore. The way he treated Jessie, the way he ruined everything out of pure greed.
