Episode 12 of 13

Plot: Hank pushes Gomez to pursue one last lead, while Walt struggles to protect the family. Jesse gets alarming news and rushes to meet with Mr. White.

Alarming news =

I would think the alarming news would be

I hate that the season is almost over.

Minor spoiler from Tv Guide re: Season Finale:

I just can't envision a scenario where Walt doesn't kill either Jesse or Gus.

Gus seems to be a goner for sure. I just wonder if Jesse will be going with him. Maybe Skybox will catch an errant bullet or something.

Hank: "Someone didn't like the way I was spending my free time."
Walter Jr: "What, minerals?"

Is there a way we can give Aaron & Giancarlo best supporting actor emmys?

Seriously. Aaron Paul is a force to be reckoned with; the hospital scene and the scene in Walt's house are just two in a long string of powerful performances from him. It was heartbreaking watching Jesse having to stand outside the hospital room. And to think, Jesse wasn't even supposed to make it out of season one.

Honestly, I felt as though Jesse might actually kill Walt tonight. I know it was highly unlikely given Cranston is the star of the show, but they did a great job of making it a realistic possibility.

Yep, this episode was great. Definitely the first half of the finale ala last year.

Amazing episode. I can't believe there's only ONE left for this season. I feel like we've been in a nonstop race to the finish for a few weeks now and I just wish they would've aired a two-hour finale; waiting a week is going to suck.

I'm glad Gus wasn't taken out by a car bomb; the character deserves better than that.

So I guess Gus really did poison the kid with the hope that Jesse would blame Walt? I can't say that surprises me too much though since Gus is always one step ahead of everyone and has a knack for planning things out, but I do wonder how he actually found out about the cigarette though. Maybe he bugged their houses?

What did the text on Walt's phone say? I assume it was from Jesse telling him Gus was on his way or something, but I didn't get a chance to read it.

Saul asking Jesse to put in a good worth with Gus for him was great. Gomez's story about why he needed to search the cleaners was funny as well.

The text said "I think I got his attention".



I guess Gus gave Jesse the week off since Jesse implied he knew everything

Did anyone else notice the weird camera angle when Hank was giving Gomez a hard time about sucking at doing knock-and-talks? Was there a reason for that? It seemed a very odd choice to end the scene with that shot and linger there for a few seconds.

Thanks, that's sort of what I figured but wanted to make sure.

I took it as either that or Gus trying to be Jesse's friend.

Anyone think it's going to turn out that Walt did give the kid the poison?

Not at all. Gus did it.

I can't see Walt doing that. More likely Gus did it and was counting on Jesse's "appropriate response".

This show can go anywhere, so who knows, though?

Wow. One of the most tense episodes of the series....cannot wait for next week.

And the shot of Walt with the binoculars, giving him red eyes, and his bared teeth made him look a little insane.

"HT"

God, I hope Saul isn't gone for good. Funniest lines this season.

Any chance Mike makes another apperance this season? I'm thinking it looks unlikely at this point.

So Walt got close enough to Gus' car to plant a bomb? And then onto the roof of a nearby building? OK, seems a little hard to believe but whatever...

Any chance that the kid actually just stole one of Jesse's smokes and got the bad one? Probably not. Can someone remind me who was the kid the Gus allowed to get killed last time? Wasn't he related to Jesse's current girlfriend somehow?

His name was Tomas; he was the one that rode the bicycle and shot Combo. He was Andrea's (Jesse's girlfriend's) little brother.

Jesse told Walt he had it the morning after the kid was at his house, which is why he probably bought into Walt's denial. God, this show is amazing. So tense because you don't know what will happen.

Another great episode.

Gomez is definitely working for Gus. Took clean pictures to throw off Hank.

Dunno Gomez stared at the entrance to the lab for a few seconds since it looked different than the rest of the machines

What do you mean by "clean" pictures? Other than the one machine, which Gomez lingered at, there's nothing unusual or out of the ordinary in the building to cover-up.

Man, that was tense!

Clearly, Walt failed because he wasn't sporting his Heisenberg attire.
