You know what I’ll miss the most about Breaking Bad? No matter how tense it gets, it will always outdo itself.
This week’s episode is no exception. Walter (Bryan Cranston) rushes home, prepared to do what’s necessary, to find Jesse (Aaron Paul) gone but his living covered in gasoline. Making up another fake story, he takes his family to a hotel, where he meets up with Saul (Bob Odenkirk). Neither Goodman nor his lackeys have been able to locate Jesse, leading him to suggest an Old Yeller solution; perhaps it’s time to put Jesse down. However, Walt won’t stand for it. Returning to the hotel room, he and Skyler (Anna Gunn) have an argument in which she too suggests that he kill Jesse, but Walt tries desperately to defend him and his actions.
