  Yeah, which is a total bummer.

  Love how they build the seasons up so much. This season just seems like a huge build up for the second half - i expect fire works.

  crazy, intense episode last night.
  
  really hoping skyler walks into traffic sometime soon
• Laley23

  

  That episode was awesome. This is setting up to be a crazy cliffhanger. Hank is definitely starting to get suspicious (questioning the watch and car) and next week it looks like Marie is going to be pushing Skylar about the "danger" the kids are in.
• gut

  I'm thinking if Mike discovers Skylar is a threat that she could have an "accident".
  
  
  I like the new soldier that shot the kid. Doesn't ask questions and doesn't hesitate. Kid has potential.

  I thought that too, but then remember, Hank knows Walt has tons of cash already from the "gambling problem". Hell, he paid for all his rehab.

  I agree with both points.

  But Hank is going to have to start suspecting how much money they could have. All his rehab, the cars, etc. I know they set up the car wash, but Hank is getting suspicious that maybe they are too lucrative for it to make sense.

  My guess is skylar cracks and tells someone.

  Thats Lance from Friday Night Lights lol. I liked him on that show as well.

  I dont think so. Hanks eyes kinda perked up when his DEA boss was talking about Gus being "right under his nose" all those years. I think Hank will start to suspect something.
  
  Plus, the clash of brother-in-laws on either side of the law has potential for great drama and plot.
• gut

  My guess is Hank won't fully connect the dots until something turns-up in the investigation linking Walt. It will be something seemingly innocous, like a fingerprint or maybe part of a face in the background of a picture.
  
  Also, Walt is a computer malfunction away from the bugs he left in Hank's office being discovered.

  He just sees what needs to be done and does it!

  He was so damn close to winning both showcases too when he was on the show. Too bad.

  Thoughts on last night?
  
  The opening scene was rough. Skylar is still a raging bitch. Not much action but definitely moved the story along for the last two episodes. Should be a pretty intense final two weeks of the half-season.
• gut

  That was a fantastic last scene. Jesse was brilliant. His reactions were just spot-on awkward.
  
  Walt has clearly lost it. Wants to walk away from $5M? And do you think that story about that other empire he walked away from when he was young was complete BS?
• TedSheckler

  No. It was season 1, I think, where they were looking for a away to pay for Walt's treatment. Skylar went to Walt's former partner and they offered to pay for everything. Walt turned them down. They other guy was loaded. So, true story.
• End of Line

  

  The beginning had such an eerie tone to it, made me uneasy.

  thanks. I didn't really start watching regularly until Season 4 I think. At some point, I'll start over.

  The dinner scene was so uncomfortable. Jesse is the tits.

  The look on his face when Skyler dropped the bomb was just priceless.
• ptown_trojans_1

  

  Solid episode.
  The I'm in the Empire Building business quote was awesome.
  And yeah, Walt has lost it now. He is more ego than anything now. All he sees is power.
  I agree the dinner scene was awkward, yet great acting by all.
  
  It is setting up to be a great 2 final episodes and an epic finish.
• Laley23

  

  Solid episode. Some powerful scenes/dialogue. One of Jesses better performances of the season.
