Oh shit! Jesse's pissed!

I didn't see next week's preview, but someone else told me that the house was still intact.... so I'm guessing Jesse doesn't actually burn the house?

It wasn't in the preview, but rather the first episode of this season. In the scene where Walt goes to the house and the house is boarded up and vacant. Its messed up, but wasn't burnt at all from what I remember.

I was trying to recall that episode too... but yeah, I don't remember what it looked like... It was too dark and I wasn't really paying attention.

Walt is pretty much fucked now though... Either Jesse kills him or rats on him... Or rats on him, then kills him in the last episode haha.

In the season opener, the house was messed up, but I don't remember it being burnt.. Someone wrote "HEISENBERG" across the wall though. That's when Walt took the Ricin out from the wall plate..I'm betting it's for either Hank or Jesse. I loved Walt's "confession"

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

Episode was amazing until they showed Jesse at the end. Really felt it was a copout.

 

[FrenchieBully]

Thoughts on episode last night?

It was okay for me, too much talking, not enough pistol whipping or mind games. Can't wait for next week!

Calm before the storm.

This is what confuses me about the show...

Jesse was pissed when he realized his ricin cigarette was stolen and figured out that Walt poisoned Brock...

But Brock wasn't poisoned by ricin. He was poisoned by that plant... which Walt did, but it didn't involve the ricin.

So I'm thinking Walt is going to remind Jesse of that... Jesse is either going to go back to the "Oh shit... I almost killed you AGAIN for no reason" expression.... or he's just not gonna buy Walt's BS and something is gonna go down.

I think Jesse is too far over the edge to come back...Something has to give between him and Walt next week...I'm thinking Walt interrupts Jesse before he can burn the house down and something happens between those two..The house wasn't burned down in the 1st episode of this season in the fast forward to Walt going to the house to get the ricin.
On another note...In the coming attractions, Hanks wife was shown briefly wearing black..Hank has been despondent...Does he kill himself?? Plus...When does Walt Jr. finally learn the truth?..Is he in the house while Jesse is spreading gas??

Or it just may be that Jesse knows the two things are connected, because of the timing. As soon as Jesse finds out Brock is poisoned, showing similar signs as ricin poisoning, he finds out the cig is missing. So, even though he finds out it was the lily of the valley flower, he probably knows or at least suspects that whoever stole the cig is somehow responsible for Brock's poisoning.

Yeah... and Saul did say "he did it to protect you" or whatever... so there's that.

Oh well... there goes my twist to the story haha

 

[DC]

I too, loved the "confession." Tension is so thick in that show right now it's amazing.

I was confused by that too....

 

[nvanprooyen]

And yes....that video confession, pure gold.

 

[Uncle Zeek]

I was confused by that too....

When they met in the desert, Jesse basically told Walt he knew he had been playing him on many occasions. Now it hits him that the poisoning of Brock was also one of Walts deceptions. He was really hard on himself when he thought it was his mistake, and it ruined a relationship that was likely the happiest he'd ever been. It was pretty clear at the end of the show that Jesse is done being played by Walt.

Does anyone have this lovely little show of ours on box set? I ask because I would love to see deleted scenes, outtakes. Are they good/come with them?

 

[Nail Polish]

I totally forgot what ever happened to Brock and his mother...Can anyone fill me in please


N/M..I just remembered..Jesse stopped seeing them cause Walt got into Jesse's head about it

On amazon you can watch a few minisodes for free. There is a funny one where Walt tries to steal back a vacuum with money hidden inside.

This is from Allen Sepinwall's review. It may help clarify the Jesse stuff.

1)In "End Times," to get Jesse back on his side in the war against Gus, Walt arranges for Huell to steal the cigarette pack with the ricin cigarette out of Jesse's pocket and replace it with a different pack. Saul calls Jesse to his office on shaky reasons, and Huell pats him down in a way that gets Jesse's attention. Walt doesn't use the ricin to poison Brock, but rather a lily of the valley plant that will have a similar but less dangerous effect on the boy.

2)When Jesse hears that Brock has been poisoned, he realizes that the ricin cigarette is missing, then (correctly) puts two and two together that Huell stole it, on Walt's orders. He storms into Walt's house and threatens to kill him for poisoning Brock; Walt convinces Jesse that it was Gus, not him, who wanted to hurt the boy — specifically so Jesse would come to this conclusion and murder Walt for him — and that Tyrus must have lifted the cigarettes from Jesse's locker at the Super Lab. Jesse accepts that Mr. White would never hurt a child, whereas Gus has a history of hurting children, and lets go of the theory about Huell.

3)Doctors later figure out that Brock was poisoned by a lily of the valley, not ricin, making Jesse doubt Walt's theory about Gus manipulating Jesse into shooting Walt, and leaving him to wonder what really happened to the ricin cigarette. Walt stages a phony search of Jesse's house and plants a fake cigarette (containing salt, not ricin) inside Jesse's Roomba. None of this sits well with Jesse, but he once again believes Mr. White.

4)Over the course of season 5, starting around the murder of Drew Sharp, Jesse has begun to realize that he shouldn't believe anything Walt says. Walt claims to be broken up over Drew's death, then whistles while he works. Walt claims that Mike left town alive, when Jesse knows that Walt would've never taken out Mike's guys unless Mike was dead. Walt gives Jesse a whole song and dance about how leaving town will be good for Jesse, when Jesse knows that it will be even better for Walt.

5)Having been primed to disbelieve any word out of Walt's mouth, Jesse goes to Saul's office, lights up a joint and gets scolded by Saul, who knows his relocation expert won't pick up anyone who's high. Saul orders Huell to again pick Jesse's pocket to get rid of the marijuana.

6)At the pick-up spot, a nervous Jesse reaches for his pot, and can't find it. He frantically checks all his pockets, but all he finds is a cigarette pack. Staring at the cigarette pack, and realizing Huell dipped into his pocket without him noticing, Jesse realizes that his first suspicions about the ricin cigarette were correct, and that Mr. White was manipulating him into turning against Gus, endangering Brock's life in the process.

That the ricin wasn't actually used on Brock is beside the point. Jesse knew from the beginning that Huell had picked his pocket, and that he must have done it on Mr. White's orders. He has been thinking about this often in the months since it happened — far more often and more intensely than those of us watching the show have, and in a more compressed time period. When he realizes Huell picked his pocket, and stares at another crumpled cigarette pack, everything clicks into place about the events of "End Times" — including how convenient it was that this terrible thing happened to Brock, which turned Jesse back into Walt's ally, at the exact moment Walt needed an ally against Gus — and he goes on the warpath against Saul, Huell and that asshole Mr. White.

I wonder where Walt really lives.

I'm gonna guess Jesse is gonna target Walt's family somehow... Since that's all Walt cares about... Our at least that's all he was telling Jesse he cares about.
