The idea of straightening his tie being the last thing Gus does before dying is to demonstrate that this act itself comes instinctively to him, almost like a defense mechanism. He's been obsessing over portraying a put together, perfectly inconspicuous businessman as long as he's been a criminal, this is the very persona that has enabled him to hide in plain sight. Therefore the actor thought it was only fitting for his death scene to reflect this innate part of his personality, to show that in a life or death situation where he's clearly in shock, the first thing Gus instinctively cares about is blending in, looking innocent, keeping up his charade.

The scene where Jane (black hair girl) overdoses and chokes on her vomit is actually one of the darkest scenes in BB. Earlier in the episode, Walter explains to his son how he places his infant daughter on her side so she doesn’t choke while she sleeps. Walt knows about the recovery position but deliberately chooses to let Jane die to teach Jesse a lesson.

[@Coldvader]

not only teach him a lesson. She also blackmailed him and the death of her was the best resolution for walt

[@Fucisko]

It wasn't to teach Jesse a lesson, it was to save him I think. She was the one who got him hooked on heroin and she was dragging him down.

[@Lauren_210]

It’s also devastating how one decision (Walt intentionally not helping Jane and leaving her to die) leads to so many other deaths with her father severely distraught where he could not concentrate on his work as an air traffic controller, thus not coordinating the pilots and causes a mid-air collision to occur. 😓

Yeah, it was always one of those things which screamed dramatic license for the sake of getting to the point because when have you ever met a paramedic (or anyone) who can hear someone with abnormal respiration and say "This is definitely serious - likely cancer - and not just you having a chest cold or a PE or a million other things."

[@Hank..]

Interesting fact: in the original script for Jane's death (the one who choked to death on her vomit), Walt was written to have taken advantage of her unconscious state by intentionally overdosing her. It was later decided doing that would be too cold blooded for his character to still be liked by the audience. It was rewritten to him seeing her begin to vomit and intentionally rolling her from her side onto her back so she'd choke, and then rewritten again to the current version, where he accidentally moves her onto her back while shaking Jesse, and then intentionally chooses not to act when she begins to choke. The scene was still extremely shocking for audiences at the time, but it went over a lot better than the original version would have.

[@kailovi]

that's interesting. From a story perspective I definitely like the final version the best as Walter was not yet evil so straight up intentional premeditated murder would've come from out of nowhere for his character at this point. This last version also so beautifully points out the fact that most evil in this world is done by lack of action. Him just watching Jane choke is so brutal. What makes it truly devastating is that Walt's first reaction is to rush to help Jane, but then he stops himself and makes a choice Heisenberg would make, even though his essence at this point is still to rush and help. It's because Walter struggles to not rescue Jane, and the shame mixed with relief when she's gone that really makes the scene hit harder. Because watching cold killers do horrible stuff is not as shocking as when it's someone empathetic choosing to hurt another. Because then we need to ask ourselves, are there specific circumstances where I would watch other people suffer, and do nothing?

[@patrykdabrowski1788]

It's kinda crazy how many small changes they made which led to the show being so much better. I recently just heard about some scrapped scene where walt was supposed to brutally torture a man and then make him kill himself, which somehow ended up in walt jr dying as well. Now you say he was supposed to intentionally kill jane, and i think jesse was also gonna be killed off in like the first season. Just imagine if they actually went through with all this and just immediately made walter into a stone cold murderer. Think about how differently brba would've been received. I'm glad vince is a genius and knows what's best for the series though, so we got the show we all know and love

[@RickSigma]

@@patrykdabrowski1788 That scene was supposed to be about Tuco. In the original version Tuco was meant to kill Jesse in s1 and then Walter would imprison Tuco in the crawl space under his house and set up a rig so Tuco could kill himself at any time with a shotgun. Then walt jr would go down into the crawl space and Tuco would pull the trigger killing both of them

[@patrykdabrowski1788]

Yeah I know, i watched Vince talk about it, j just didn't know the details 2 months ago. Still, i absolutely can't imagine how they would've pulled this show off if it went in that direction.

[@shardonfardon]

It’s crazy how Bryan started crying. For people who do not know the story, when the scene was shot and Jane was choking on her vomit, Bryan said in an interview or something that her face started changing as he watched her choke on her vomit and he started to see his daughter’s face. Quite sad.

[@dragos-lucian]

“I watched Jane die. I could’ve saved her” That scene was beyond brutal

When we did frozen sections on squamous cell carcinomas (though Walter probably has adeno) in LNs, if we found positive ones, the didn't resect the lung. Even just in 11 years, so much has changed in diagnosing and treating cancer. We also didn't check for ricin. Coroner run red state. They did the bare minunum. Didn't do cyanide either. Only time we went above and beyond was when something was weird. Our Wile Coyote suicide didn't have a clear cause of death, but the toxicologist able to write a paper on the cocktail of animal poisons he'd given himself. Also stabbed himself in a lot of places and managed to miss anything vital.

To... add some clarity to the scene where Walter's given his diagnosis, depending on how many spots they see they could say it's inoperable. My own dad was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and while they were able to remove it the first time, they found small nodules with a scan and once they'd done the biopsy to figure out if it was actually cancer they said a similar thing. What it might mean is, there could be an operation done but it would be like playing wack a mole (it could keep coming back) but that doesn't mean it's not treatable

[@godrickstockwell1505]

Could also have something to do with where the tumor is in the lungs or how big it is. Or it could be along those lines where there are so many tumors that even if they're only in Walt's lungs removing them all would take too much of the organ. You can live with only one lung but if they can't save that then there wouldn't be much point in surgery.

When I received my 1st cancer dx, I was at work. They told me over the phone, I was a blubbering fool. My colleagues understood the nature of the situation and recommended that I go home. It was 5 years ago this coming December 21st. I went through all of my appointments alone. Not one of my doctors recommended that I bring in anyone nor did they offer a patient advocate. In just these short 5 years, much has changed when it comes to cancer dx. All doctors are more patient focus, with shared decision making. While the character in this show focused on mustard, I relied on what I know best as a quality engineer. Data, statistical data, numbers, patterns, etc. I do just want to say that oncology doctors and nurses are the best I have ever dealt with but shout out to all healthcare workers.

The doctors wanted to do a bunch of things to rule out why he had this fugue state, but the whole thing was faked. He just didn't want his family to know about it because (again, if I remember correctly,) it was a cover-up for his illegal activities. The doctors keeping him in the hospital to do all these tests and such would have interfered with said activities, and he didn't want to waste his time.

Same thing happened to my older sister after some family friends were over.

Spent a moment trying to wake her up but she would only ever open her eyes slightly and just mumble something. Rolled her over and within 20 minutes, she started throwing up while unconsious. Eventually after an hour of no throwing up, I got her to get into bed...where she threw up 5 minutes later. I stood in the hall until maybe 2:30am to make sure nothing else happened then went back to my room and played some morrowind to occupy myself while listening for signs of her falling ill again. Around 4:00am, I called it and got into bed. What followed the next day is what I can only describe as the most hellish looking hangover I have ever personally witnessed someone experience.

I reckon that what the doctor injected into Gus' tongue is probably suxamethonium (succinylcholine) to facilitate intubation. Intralingual/submental sux is a really weird but effective way of getting paralytic control quickly, when IV access isn't available. Most of the times that this technique is used (which is rarely) is when you need to break laryngospasm and don't have parenteral access, usually in kids. Typically nowadays protocol is to inject it IM, but because the tongue is so vascular the onset of intralingual sux is much faster.

Fr bro I don’t mean to be rude to this guy but in every show he doesn’t know what is even going on so he gets everything wrong.

I love the suspicious cause of death being illustrated by the plant abuse 😂😂😂 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="310">5:10</a>

I was looking for this comment! 🤣

Doctor Mike is absolutely right: PLEASE see your doctor ASAP if you have worrying symptoms of lung cancer like coughing up blood (hemoptysis), fever, unintentional weight loss, night sweats, cough that doesn’t go away - a CAT or MRI scan as well as a thorough history and examination is needed. In the UK, our National Health Service (NHS) is free - so this show wouldn’t happen LOL! Thanks for reviewing one of my favourite shows Doctor Mike!

I live in the US. Dying is as expensive as the hospital visit; so living with death is just the way to go.

[@evilsharkey8954]

Unfortunately, lung cancer has a bad habit of not showing any symptoms until it’s already metastasized too far to be cured. It’s an awful disease.

If you have a lump on your breast-possible breast cancer. A mole that changes ABCDE's (Appearance, Boarder, Color, Diameter, Edges)-skin cancer.

Don't trust this bastardized charlatan doctor. You have no idea.

[@marcbrown1835]

Dr. Mike should be behind bars.

[@myself9197]

I like how he makes talking about medical stuff fun.

[@Kepi_Kei]

Not so fun if you are the patient LOL

[@kokopellione]

When Walter coughed, I really felt that. Most relatable scene in the series.

[@zach11241]

Speaking of the scene where the “nurse” is bagging; I had a technician one year who could have killed a patient by compressing the bag far too quickly. In the process of going fast they weren’t compressing nearly enough and as a result our patient was not receiving enough oxygen. Luckily we caught them a few moments into the process and had them switched out with another technician.

And people wonder why I am afraid of hospitals. They are just humans with more knowledge (but maybe not enough) than me.

[@MartinFinnerup]

@@Kepi_Kei That mentality isn't that useful though. Everyone is just human. Are you afraid of auto shops and schools too? Everyone makes mistakes, that is unavoidable. The key is to minimize how many, and to handle them correctly.

[@supremeoveralskaters]

@@MartinFinnerup Mistakes when human life is on the line should not be tolerated. "Ooops i killed you, tee hee".

[@TouchTheStars]

@@supremeoveralskaters That's why they have multiple people and protocols in place in order to try to minimize the mistakes made. Humans just can't be 100% infallible though, no matter how high the stakes... Still a heck of a lot better chances than without the medicine at all though

[@ryanthompson2462]

@@supremeoveralskaters Should not be tolerated? Healthcare workers aren't robots! With your mentality, who would go into healthcare? We would have no doctors or nurses at all. Negligence shouldn't be tolerated, but come one, we all make mistakes.
