Hazard Pay

Walt and Jesse with the addition of Mike now are back in business. Meanwhile Skyler had a breakdown possibly because of Walt, she now maybe perceived him as a danger to the family. I don't blame her tho Walt is a trouble maker now haha I mean he have the opportunity to leave meth business behind him and start over but he chose to continue to cook. the idea of the new lab is brilliant. I foresee a possible conflict between Walt and Mike in the near future.

It hurts to say it but it is what that is, Walter is a monster, he is greedy, over ambitious, manipulator, cold and unchaste.

First time watching the scene between Walt and Jesse after cooking, I thought that Walter told Jesse all that stuff about Andrea to make him feel better and help him to reach happiness with that girl, I still thinking that some part of that conversation is genuinely Walt trying to tell Jesse that he appreciate doing business with him, that's all that matters to Walt at his point, Business.

Meanwhile Skyler is having a identity crisis about her own husband. Walt is shown as this dark shape moving around the house, terrifying.

This is the third episode of the fifth episode of Breaking Bad. Compared to the first two episodes, this episode is a little on the slow side. But the characterization is the key focus of the episode and in that regard, it truly works. There were some funny moments with some involving Saul (of course), and one surprisingly involving Skinny Pete and Badger.

In this episode, "Hazard Pay," Walt, Jesse, and Mike begin to start cooking their first batch of meth. Mike visits Gus's former workers in prison to tell them to remain silent. Jesse makes an important personal decision on the insistence of Walt. Hank goes back to work. Skylar has a breakdown which prompts Marie to ask Walt for the truth.

Overall, this is a very good episode even if it is on the slower side of things. But this episode shows us how each of our characters are changing, and we see Skylar on the way to her breaking point. It will be interesting to see what happens next. I rate this episode 9/10.

Walt, Jesse, and Mike move along with their plans for the new Business but find that moving from an employee to an employer involves more than just changing the name on the door.

After wondering were the writers were going to take this series i am drooling in anticipation of what will come next. After hitting the dizzy heights they are back, not exactly at the bottom but definitely with a lot still left to learn and plenty of room for mistakes.

On the personal side, all the main relationships continue to be in turmoil; although Walt always seems to be in turmoil in one sense or another.

It's like in the original Godfather, after Marlon Brando is gone, and it's time for Al Pacino to do some business, in Las Vegas... that part of the film then carries into the second Godfather but it could have went on another two hours and it would be fine, because it was the climber now running things, which is happening at this point, Walter in charge and with the problems that goes along with that and, too bad Mike, the best character on the season, has limited time... Then again he should have never been part of this bizness venture to begin with scrutinized by Hank, but, anyhow, this episode is viewed by being fare, just okay, by many, but to me it's a small part of what could have been a few more seasons (the show ends perfectly on this season, but this is more a wish fulfillment than actual theory)...
