think about what happens in the episode

Posted by: Moviesnob on Aug 26, 07:48 in response to islander's post i thought it was a stretch...(sp)

Jesse realizes Walt's manipulating him while its happening. its the first time he's aware of it, although he's suspected it at times. When that happens, he hits bottom in a lot of ways and breaks down. While we don't see it, Walt likely tells him he wants him to leave town, confirming he was trying to manipulate Jesse. So when he realizes the pot is gone he figures out how it was taken and it wouldn't take much for him to think of another time he was "bumped" in the same manner by the same person- when the cigarette was taken from him and how he was manipulated into thinking he had poisened brock. 

 

OK, am I missing something with newest Breaking Bad? eyescovered Aug 25, 19:08

from the Episode Face Off..(spoilers) lobogotti Aug 26, 07:23

from the Episode End Times..(spoilers) lobogotti Aug 26, 07:20

as you can see from the episode guide... (spoilers) lobogotti Aug 26, 07:32

I don't think it was a stretch at all, rather very good writing for an excellent show. it's being received well by critics and fans alike. lobogotti Aug 26, 07:34

yes great ep, but still doesnt quite work... islander Aug 26, 07:50

Yep, that was my thinking. {nm} eyescovered Aug 26, 09:02

think about what happens in the episode Moviesnob Aug 26, 07:48

oh posted before seeing this. i guess {nm} islander Aug 26, 07:52

exactly. further points I meant to add, but got a bit busy....(spoilers) lobogotti Aug 26, 08:01

MY concern about this is as above... numbersix_99 Aug 26, 15:34

Well said. eyescovered Aug 26, 16:01

Well, I would RESPECTFULLY disagree. I only see one of those events as manufactured, the others are logical outcomes set up over time. Moviesnob Aug 26, 16:29

Vulture breaks it down pretty good here... eyescovered Aug 26, 16:51

its a recap. It doesn't critique last night's episode other than saying Moviesnob Aug 26, 17:39

Um, not just a recap. Pretty much an entire article on what we're talking about. {nm} eyescovered Aug 26, 18:46

sorry, didn't mean any offense. I don't see where your concerns were addressed {nm} Moviesnob Aug 26, 20:02

here's the writer from the episode (again, vulture) talking directly about the origin and mechanics about the revelation Moviesnob Aug 26, 21:28

No prob man! Maybe you could change your handle to TVsnob ; ) {nm} eyescovered Aug 27, 03:36

perfectly reasonable explanation. and trust me, I'm not a blind advocate for the show...(spoilers) lobogotti Aug 27, 11:27

As entertainment, it's damn good, though for me it used to be better because of these lack of contrivances... numbersix_99 Aug 27, 01:01

wow, that is some really deep thinking. I'm surprised Walt's ability to turn on the tears turns you off so much. lobogotti Aug 27, 11:24

I think.... numbersix_99 Aug 27, 14:00

ha! The debate that will go on for years to come, The Wire or Breaking Bad. At this point I feel BB has a slight lead, and the can retain lobogotti Aug 27, 17:39
