Actions have their consequences, creating new worlds, And they are all different. Women, alcohol and expensive clothes - one world. They have been unknown to us until now, but they have always existed, haven't they? Actually, I'm sure now. At some point we realize the reality of the world we are in. There is no other world. We all have to prepare a place to accommodate the tragedies that sooner or later will befall us. Did you know someone said "There is no way to walk. A way is made by walking." Vince Gilligan had exchanged every word, every poem, every verse he had written for another hour with the woman he loved. What do you say is possible!? I say it's impossible. But for the latter who have understood that the last days of death take on another meaning. And now, the end is near and final curtain we have to close because waiting for me Albuquerque methamphetamines plastic box full with cash!..!?

This is literally one of the best episodes of the entire show. I personally loved Jesse's storyline in this episode, with him and the kid. I loved his and Walt's storyline, because Walt's was also amazing. Anyways, my favorite characters in this episode were Jesse, Walt, and the kid. My favorite things about this episode were the Protagonist, the storyline, and the pacing. This should honestly be at least a 9.0 or a 9.1. This should definitely be higher rated on this app, because this was amazing. This is another episode as to why this is in the top 5 of best shows. If you are looking dor an impactful drug show, definitely watch this one.

Today, December 2022 is into my annual re-watch of the greatest TV show of all time, "Breaking Bad," and this episode ranks as among my top five. As some reviewers have pointed out, this episode stands alone and fleshed out a little bit more would make a great movie, although it might be difficult to set up the Walter-Gretchen situation and what makes that restaurant scene so poignant.

Kudos to the makeup and art design department for creating the ultra-realistic Spooge and his lady partner characters with their emaciated bodies and meth sores. Maybe around the time the little red-haired boy was born Spooge worked a legitimate medical-related job, but descent into thievery to support drug habits has made a mess of him, his woman, and the house where the family lives.

When Jesse invades that house to attempt to recover stolen meth and/or money, his features contort with disgust at the filth he finds there. Yet, in the middle of it all the little boy nonchalantly walks into the living room, turns on the TV set to the only channel it can receive, and plops onto the couch beside Jesse. This is what causes the emotional punch because if the writing/direction team had shown the little boy as horriied or desperate it would have been way less effective.

The episode contains one of the most graphic yet ironically appropriate endings for not only a BB episode but for a dramatic TV show in general. Aaron Paul submitted it for consideration of a "Best Supporting Actor" award, and it's easy to see why.

After Skinny Pete was kidnapped near the end of the previous episode he managed to call Jesse Pinkman and give him the address of Spooge: Jesse takes Walt's gun and goes to Spooge's house for giving him a lesson. There is no one at home so Jesse smashes a window, enters and the place is in total degradation, with lots of dirty clothes, garbage and broken objects. Soon a child comes out, silent and neglected as well: Jesse feeds him with the few edible things at home and when the parents come, Jesse soon attacks them at gunpoint. In the meanwhile Walter White returned working in his old high school, while also receiving the bad news that Grechten and Schwartz can't help him anymore with the money for the cancer cures. Jesse forces Spooge and his wife to give all the drug they have but is very little: Spooge then takes a ATM-like safe that should contain lots of money but his wife makes the safe fall on his head crushing it and killing him: Jesse takes all the money and flees not before letting the kid out and calling 911 wishing him good luck.

Jesse's story, while a bit dark, was great because it shows us that he also has an human side and can care for others when they are in the need while Walt's story wasn't particularly gratifying for the viewer. Overall a good episode especially in the last part.

This episode was heartbreaking. It was so sad if gave me chills, the whole thing with the kid crushed me, i could barley handle seeing it. This was easily one of the best episodes so far, however one i wouldn't be able to revisit frequently because the scenes with the kid were so heavy. The atm scene was one of the greatest so far. Jesses storyline was so well done it takes away from walt's storyline although it was highly important to furthering the fact plot.
