What I love the most is how they reframed Breaking Bad. It was originally about a man's cancer diagnosis turning him into an amoral monster. Now, it's a story about how two men collided at one point in time and turned themselves into the worst versions of themselves. I'm pretty sure this is what Gould meant when he said this last season would change our perspective of BB.

[@zekeiwa5837]

How does that change anything? You are reducing the entirety of BCS to Saul meeting Walt, even though its clear both shows deal with the nature of people and the consequences of going further than they should. All main characters suffer the same fate of having what they wanted and losing it all in a moment because of a poor choice, so no, I don't see how BB's context has changed at all

Yeah, but Saul is one of the key reasons Walt's got to where he is. Maybe Walt would have rose to power as quick as he did even without their help, maybe not, but the thing is, a lot of these key players helped Walt be where he was by the later seasons. Hell, Saul was the one who told them to launder and properly manage their money and they had no clue about that. Like a job, having connections helped. And boy, Saul had connections that Jesse and Walt used. Jesse was a mess when Jane died and the only reason Mike met him was because he called Saul and sent Mike.

Same could probably be said for Gus.

Had Tuco's actor stuck around longer, Gus may not have even been a character (or at least, may not have been introduced when he was).

Dislike this style of looking at things, you can reduce any character to being this important. "Combo was the most important character in Breaking Bad. Imagine if he hadn't given the RV to Jesse, they would have had no place to cook and likely been stopped from ever cooking meth in the first place. Combo's death is also the catalyst for the tension between Gus and Walt, if Combo never died Walt would have had no reason to kill those dealers to save Jesse and Gus would have never had to be taken out later down the line. Yes, one could say without Combo there is no Heisenberg empire."

I think this scene is very interesting, and I hope we get more from it. The big question I have is whether Jimmy had an influence on Gus to work with Walt. Mike was obviously against it but I’d love to see how Gus came around to the idea and whether Jimmy had something to do with it. I think this scene also says a lot about Mike’s relationship with Walt. Mike was always very standoffish towards Walt and I think this scene really shows us why.

[@SteelBallRun1890]

Nah, I don't think Saul and Gus ever need to meet or be aware of each other aside from passing remarks. I think Walt (with the help of Saul teaching him the business) would have reached Gus' ear eventually. But Gus wouldn't see it as Saul being the brains, he'd still see it as Walt. Mike was against it but the final word still goes to Gus. And when Walt starts being too big for his territory, then Gus acts, with or without Mike's approval.

"Thou who shall not be named" that is what I was waiting for!!!!!

[@R0S3inC0NCR33T]

All along, Mike's irritation and anger with Walt was an extension of his irritation and anger with Jimmy. He told him not to fuck around with Heisenberg, but Slippin' Jimmy just couldn't help himself, and it ruined everything.

[@yonical5857]

I love how Jimmy and Mike talk about them like THEY are the ones in control. Jimmy refers to Walt as "170 pounds of clay ready to be moulded" when in reality, they have gravely miscalculated; in the coming years, Walt will ruin both of their lives.

[@soldierofgod6335]

This solidifies Saul as the main character of the BrBa/BCS universe, since he's responsible for Walt's rise to Heisenberg.

[@sergiomendoza4850]

It’s kinda fascinating how even from this particular point of view we see how much of a gamble it was to take Walter as a criminal partner. And Mike was right walter didn’t know what the fuck he was doing as a criminal until season 5 of BB, and even then it was with the help of other people. It amazes me that Saul and Gus both still risked it all on Walter, I guess the money they were guaranteed to bring in because of the quality of the meth was just too hard to deny. But still I wonder how Saul sold Gus on employing Walter. Maybe we will still see it still but I still find it hard to believe with Mike saying absolutely not when it came to Walter, Gus still did it because he needed a cook for the Super lab.

[@guillermoalvarez9400]

Saul didn’t even know who Gus was, and Gus had his own bad instinct about Walt. It was revealed later on that Gale was the one who convinced Gus to hire Walt because of how good the meth was.

[@sanderspost999]

1:57 ''He who shall not be named'' I was wondering why Mike would even bother letting Saul know the slightest thing about existence of Gus Fring and his operation. But then i realized he is still Krazy-8's lawyer who is a Confidential Informant for the DEA controlled by the Salamanca Family. So any information the DEA was receiving Saul would be privy to as well and he passed it on to Mike who in turn passed it on to Gus.

[@TheInquisitiveMug]

“Working with a former student, CURRENT meth-head, one Jesse Pinkman”

[@thewhitewolf6715]

I know a lot of people want to think Walt was some mastermind and while he was a brilliant genius, Mike is right that Walt was an amateur. He told Jesse to expand the territory just to make more money but clearly didn’t account for other drug crews. And then when he kills Gus and becomes the new kingpin he starts whining about having to pay the drivers/mules and how they made less money than with Gus. And then he starts working with a Neo Nazi gang and thinks he can control them. He was a total amateur because of his greed and ego. But admittedly in the final episode, after finally keeping his ego in check and control, he does become a mastermind.

Mike pleaded for Saul to reject Walt completely, but Saul took a half measure

[@brocktaker]

Jimmy’s subconscious need of distraction and taking risky choices caused by his denial of his part in the death of his brother and of Howard Hamlin is the main reason for all the help that Walter White received even though all of his associates saw him for the amateur that he is, it had always seemed unreasonable how easily he got sucked into the life and straight to the main distributer with less than a year of experience, now it all makes sense in a random yet very accurate circumstances

@@thescoobymike How is Kaylee not receiving Mike's money Walt's fault? Mike used an amateur lawyer and got his accounts seized by the DEA. Maybe if Mike didn't want to lose his life or his money he shouldn't have gotten involved with criminals.

[@Movierebel3]

I have a different take on this. Mike was not underestimating Walter. This is due to this particular episode corresponding with Breaking Bad's s2e8, where they abduct Saul. Some three episodes later in Breaking Bad, Walter meets with Fring about their first deal for $1.2 million in cash. My guess is -- Mike steers Saul away because Gus already has plans for Walter, not because Mike is underestimating him. But because they're going to use Walter. And they don't want Saul meddling in that, as they're already two steps ahead of him.

[@hydroxytriptamine3554]

Interesting, I like your theory

[@ididntmeantoshootthatvietn5012]

walter having bad history with the salamanca probably made gus thought he could be good for him

[@WisteriaNerium]

Nah, if you remember the intro of Box cutter, Gus was actually trying to stay away from Walter and bet on Gale as his cook. But Gale insisted on meeting Heisenberg after Saul's offer. So both Mike and Gus were unconcerned about Walt since they already had a plan, but it was on the insistence of Saul and Gale that they both managed to set up a meeting.

[@SaulGoodman3D2049]

Walt stayed at Los Pollos Hermanos for an entire day and was only able to speak to Gus about hiring him because he got clued in from Gus looking at him weirdly when he thought he wasn't looking. Gus had no intention to do any business with Walt and wouldn't have accepted if his product wasn't top of the line and he didn't have a huge amount of it ready to go.

[@rashan2424]
