Just a heads up... Some stuff came up and we won’t be able to watch episode 4 of BrBa on schedule. We will still get to 104 & 105 this week. They will just be published Thursday and Friday instead. Spread the word!!! Thank you for understanding.

[@victorsixtythree]

16:23 - I just noticed the single tear drop as Walter says, "Are you going to stick me with that broken piece of plate?" Nice detail.

[@IceSword1728]

I've seen this show so many times, but also just noticed that too.....

[@sldlsndns3420]

Never noticed that until now aswell.

[@ghenry4513]

@Drake Lang - when I first watched this show, I had no idea who the actor was and never heard of Bryan Cranston before in my life, but I was literally astounded by how well he was acting....and I thought to myself, "how is this guy a no name actor?" bc he was sooo good at acting...I knew he had to be "somebody", but I never saw him in a big role before so I thought it was some nobody...then I found out a day or two later that it was the dentist on Seinfeld and he had already won several Emmy awards for this show (I first watched binge watching during the final run of season5)...and that made sense bc while watching, particularly this episode early on, it was some of the best acting I can ever remember seeing in my life in anything, film or tv.

[@ericak3636]

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

Bryan is simply that kind of actor who doesn't draw attention to himself, the actor. He manages to vanish completely in the role he plays. That is why no one knew his name before Walter White.

[@cindycrewsbeach72]

You are correct Steven. The Jessie character was not supposed to last, but the chemistry between him and Walt caused them to rewrite his part. Best decision ever!

One of the things I love about this show is they make it so realistic. The logistics of trying to start a drug business. What it would be like to kill someone. To try to get rid of a body. To hide this stuff from your family. It's all so intense! The characters so beautifully realized. The photography, the dialogue, the pacing, it's masterful. I'm curious to see if Nikki and Steven stay on the same page as the series goes along. There are so many different directions to go in.

[@george8873]

Breaking Bad is the best at character development.

I like their reaction to this episode. This is where it hit me hard too the first time watching. It's ultimately the episode that kept me watching since I usually don't stick with shows. The contrast between light and the heavy darkness was irresistible. But just wait til you see what it becomes.

[@elisabethlarsen4282]

I agree with you so much, same experience here. And just to know what the show will be, how it turned out, it gives me goosebumps. I am so excited for them!

[@kalakritistudios]

Yeah, the plate thing was the first thing which impressed me in the show.

[@bigdream_dreambig]

I don't think Walter _knew_ that some of the plate was missing when he saw the pieces in the trash. Instead, I think he realized there was a possibility that Krazy 8 had taken a piece, so he reassembled the shards to find out one way or the other.

[@ln9256]

This. Walter is a very Very intelligent man. In this moment I believe he was going over possibilities in his mind and when this scenario popped into his head he knew to double check. Hunches have given Walt an advantage in so many situations.

Has there been a better duo than Walter White and Jesse Pinkman in the history of TV? I think not.

It's just sad how Crazy 8 is one of the criminals the most forgotten of the show I mean even if he was in only 3 episodes in the show the way how they are killed his cousin, how he saw horrible scenes like seeing his cousin's blood falling on the roof, and the way he was tied and got killed. He was probably a criminal but he wasn't like Tuco to deserve such horrible things like this.

If we didn't know anything about Walt, and instead we're given Crazy 8's POV. What would we think about a character who makes meth, kidnaps a person, has them chained up like a dog (or in this case - a bike) and then proceeds to murder him?

[@BangTanPrettiNikki]

Fernando we would for sure be on the side of Crazy 8. However they in my eye would both be horrible people. One, cooks meth to sell to the community, the other steals meth and most likes murders the meth cook to sell to the community.. All bad!!!

[@OG_Fernando]

@@BangTanPrettiNikki I replied to someone's comment with this - "Very true...What do we know about Crazy 8? Perhaps he married his highschool sweetheart, who's currently pregnant with their 3rd child. One day he's asked by his cousin for some help. Believing in "family comes first", he decides to help his cousin. Eventually he is kidnapped by some white supremacist (who also happens to be an excellent meth "artist") and his tweaker sidekick. He's now locked away in the basement. His cousin has been made into beef stew, and he knows his end is approaching. All he wants is to go back to his family and look into their eyes one last time. At any cost, he must find a way out."

[@OG_Fernando]

Sometimes we need peeps to step up and become a "necessary evil". Would we rather have the local drug dealer be one who sells to kids and wouldn't think twice about killing the innocent (elderly, woman and children)? Or would our community be better off with a drug dealer who refuses to sell to his neighbors, let alone children. One who gives back to his neighborhood. Would we rather have a cop who does everything by the book. Even if it leads to rapist and molesters being released in our streets? Or would we rather have a cop who will make sure our kids are able to walk safely to school...by any means necessary. In other words...it's all about morals. Those with some and those with none.

[@snapgab]

Plus, who WOULDN'T want to have some kind of weapon when they're in that situation?

[@angie-tq4ew]

@@OG_Fernando Everything should be about morals, but in the end, morals are subjective. What's one person's morals against another's? This is why I love this show so much. Because we are forced to think - what's the lesser of two evils. 😉
