Just watched the trailer. Looks pretty cool. I'd try to hot box it.

Walt cares, he just cares like a psychopath. He has people that he obviously values in his life, but in the end, he values them less than his own success/freedom/pride.
Yeah, I think the point is that he's not a bad guy when he's not protecting his ego/pride/empire. But timejumps are hard on a show like this, you kind of forget how far out of the game he is at this point.
I'm not sure about that last part. And I think that's what makes this show so interesting. This last episode really underscores that. I really don't think he's all that eager to kill Jesse, and the show makes that clear.
If I have one criticism about season 5 part 2, it's that the show is a little too literal at times. The scene with Walt and Skyler this week, and the scene with Jesse storming into Saul's office: both scenes make Skyler and Jesse's character motivations a little too plain.
Well that's what I'm saying. He values these people and wants to reconcile that with his own needs/wants, but when they ultimately come in conflict, Walt chooses Walt every time.
It was sort of necessary in Jesse's case, because that plot point needed to be explained to a lot of people.Quote:

I can't see Walt killing Jesse, but I expect him to waste Todd and friends, and hopefully Lydia.
I wonder if we'll ever know exactly what happened between Walt, Elliot, and Gretchen when they were young, or if we'll just be left to assume the obvious. We'll probably never know why Mike left the Philly PD, either.
So who is he putting Todd's uncle on? Hank, so that Jesse will wander back to him? Or Jesse to silence him.
He knows. But maybe he doesn't know he knows.
