Definitely one of the best episodes of Breaking Bad ever.

Just watched the new episode and I can say, I totally agree with your statement.

yeah definitely the best episode of the season thus far. my guess is hank survives.

Best Show Ever

pretty much.

no way. it is entertaining tho. ill take new episodes of deadwood instead please.

RIP Hank

I don't think Hank's gonna die. He is ready for action!

The worst thing about the Mexican twins is that people (like hank) are unaware they exists. Is like defending yourself from the evil ghost living under your bed but you don't know is there.

Agreed. Hank will go ballistic on the twins' asses.

Btw. I was pleasantly surprised by the not-so-mute twin's voice. I was afraid he was going to sound all bad ass and macho but he spoke in a very calm and monotonous way that only made him seem more fucked up.

The Mexican Twins are the most derivative, snooze-inducing thing in the show. I had a couple serious problems with this episode.

It felt too....writerly. They did a really poor job of motivating and explaining some of this nonsense.

1. The meth lab assistant - this guy is way too fruity. They really should have toned down his enthusiasm. I felt like I was watching campy theatre.

2. The Mexican Twins - they're not tough, they're fucking boooooooooooring. They just come across like rejects from a thousand incomplete 1990s scripts found in Tarantino's waste basket. Did anybody find the ending totally retarded? "Your boss said you can't kill the DEA agent. In the north, I am the boss. You have my permission."

WTF. That makes sense only if you're a writer desperate to ratchet up the tension and don't follow the logic of human behavior.

3. Walt was dumb, Hank was dumber - so Walt realizes the entire RV house of cards will fall if Jesse (with Hank in tow) follows him to the RV yard. It made no sense at all that Walt would involve the RV yard mechanic and Jesse's dumbass friend without realizing the friend would call Jesse immediately. I saw that coming from a mile away and it was really dumb writing.

Then, of course, there's Hank taking the prank call bait. That was just fucking retarded. In the age of caller ID, etc. there is no way that would happen. Hank would have been, at the very least, incredibly skeptical. It also contradicts how focused (to the point of going half-insane) he had been on finding that RV. He has Jesse cornered, he has the RV, he has the owner of the salvage yard acting suspiciously...and he just takes off like a bat out of hell? Cheese. Not buying it.

I also hated the shit with the salvage yard owner. He came out with all that legalese bullshit about 4th amendment and domiciles, bla bla bla, and it just came across like WAY too clever writing. This episode was really annoying.

3. He didn't mean to involve them, they simply were at the scene with the RV. Walt not realizing the dumb ass friend wouldn't understand the concept of the DEA is onto Jesse and the RV... isn't really that hard to believe, especially considering the stress he was under.

Also if you got a call about someone you love getting hurt, I don't think he is going to give a shit about his job. Sure its a big deal, but we're talking about his fucking wife on the verge of death.

My biggest problem with this episode was how Jesse and Walt watched the RV get destroyed... that didn't make sense. If I was Walt I would have been the fuck out of that junk yard once Hank left.

Agree , Libertarian , 4th Amendment , i smell teabagger.

I won't watch this show if it becomes political propaganda.

Hank's clearly not thinking straight at any point, he's pretty messed up right now. More than any other character, I'd say.

So him abandoning the RV as a snap judgement makes perfect sense to me.

Yeah, kind of agree with this. It was somewhat too easy for him to convince them as well imo. But overall I thought it was a good episode.

My town is 95 percent teabaggers , i know how they think , how they talk , etc.

I can assure you , there was teabagger venom between those lines.

Knowing your basic rights as a US citizen doesn't make you a racist teabagger
