Everyone always talks about Brian Cranston's performance in this series, but Aaron Paul also poured his heart and soul into Jesse. Amazing acting!

If Hank left immediately, the twins follow him home and Marie would be in danger. Better to confront them in the lot because he had the element of surprise.

The scene where Hank cries in the elevator got me 😭😭

“That guy that installed the cameras.” 😂😂

Here’s what’s going to happen: you’re going to learn Mike’s name.

I hope it clicked by the end that Walt sabotaged Gale - he didn't make a mistake. It had nothing to do with "missing" Jesse. He was perfectly happy working in a professional lab environment with a man who respected the science as much as he did. Walt's awkwardness towards Gale at the end was precisely because he had no good reason. The problem was Jesse was threatening to blow everything up after Hank took to him. The only way Walt saw to rectify the situation - short of going with Saul's more permanent solution - was bringing Jesse back into the fold. It was top tier manipulation when he told Jesse his meth was as good as his.

"I have nothing, no one, it’s all gone" Poor Jesse 😢

17:19 *Pudgey is right. Walt is most certainly not missing Jesse.* He recognizes that Jesse is a problem because he could easily ruin his life. So he has to find a solution. He could tell Gus about it, and of course Gus would have no qualms about killing Jesse if he threatens to expose him. But that would be too drastic for Walt. That's why he decides on the "middle ground" solution, which is replacing Gale with Jesse. Even though Gale did nothing wrong, Walt finds a false pretext to get rid of him.

Hank didn't freeze, even if it may have seemed like that. He had a lot to consider, he couldn't just leave, otherwise everyone he loves would be in grave danger. He was in a lose/lose situation, and this was his only option left.

Damn that scene with Jesse never ceases to break my heart 💔

Pudgey and Mike be like, _"Waltuh"_

Walter doesn't miss Jessie at all. He wants to be able to control him again, that he doesn't talk to the cops and that he earns money himself again, so that he lets go of Hank and doesn't blackmail Walter either. That's why he's looking for little things to get rid of his new favorite lab assistant. You could hear pretty clearly that of course Guz called to warn Hank. The twins are, after all, a thorn in his butt.

Rewatching Breaking Bad with Spartan & Pudgey and GOT with Bridgeco 💟

Props Spartan!!! Everyone always wonders why Hank doesn't get out of there immediately after the "one minute" call, but he just explained to Marie how he freezes up and can't think straight. So good catch! And Pudgy you look amazing as usual.... love your blouse ❤

I took some electrical classes last October and one of my classmate told us he trained with one of the brothers at a local boxing gym here in LA. We didn’t believe him until he showed us photos and videos and yup it was definitely him. I believe the one that gets his head blown off if I remember correctly. He said he was a cool guy, and he hit really hard 😂😂😂

Hank, Jesse, “middle man” (Mike), and Saul are such great characters

Man I love both Hank and Jesse 😭

I was sure Hank would die after he told Marie he loved her on the phone. Nice to see you both so invested in the characters and enjoying all the dynamics you discussed in the outro.

To be fair, Jesse would've never met Jane if it wasn't for Walt. He would still be driving around his Captain Crunch bouncing car, slinging his chili-P dope, dressing like a wigger still, addicted, lame, etcetera. Jesse has matured as a result of working with Walt, however painful the process has been. Plus, he now OWNS the house his aunt "left him" by legally giving it to his parents. Jesse has come a long way as a result of hooking up with the Great Heisenberg, even if it's been a rough soul-crushing ride. Yeah, he was probably happier being his old dumb self I imagine. Now everything's so serious for him and his life.

Pudgey, the twin who Hector Salamanca was drowing was Marco Salamanca and Leonel Salamanca was the twin who hit Hector in the face. The twin who Hank shot was Marco and the twin whose legs were crushed was Leonel.

I know this is a heavy episode and this probably isn't the time or place but Pudgey your eyebrows look AMAZING

Such a good episode. Hank is my favorite character; I remember freaking out the first time I saw this episode.

6:39 "Family is all shit." -Pudgey 2023

27:35 They broke my boy! 😢😭 Poor Hank.

This is where Hank became Batman Vengeance🦇

The scrambled warning phone call to Hank was sent on Gus‘ request. He wanted both parties (DEA and the bros) to deal with each other and in his best case scenario, to eliminate each other.

Back in those days you could just buy a prepaid phone with cash at the store - totally untraceable, unless you could go far back enough to see the transaction on security footage, but that phone Saul used to call Hank with must've been way older than any footage that would've been kept. This was before digital storage of footage so they didn't just have endless years and years of every second in their stores. Nowadays, though, make sure you're not only wearing a disguise if you (can still even) buy a prepaid phone in a store but that you get away from the store and out of town in a vehicle or by a means that can't be traced back to you. Then you'll only be able to use that phone for a month or whatever before you have to re-up the service on it either by buying more minutes at a store with cash, or paying with a debit/credit card and connecting yourself to it. You can buy those prepaid debit cards with cash though, I wonder if you can re-up a prepaid phone with them. Some of them require associating your identity with them, or they have a $500 limit or something like that. Yeah, nowadays, it's basically impossible to get away with anything - even making a phone call.

There was an film gig ad with only the briefest information in Albuquerque Craigslist - a call for beige taupe neutral color cars, pay $80 a day for two days. They also hired all the car owners as extras to make sure we couldn’t move the cars, lol. Filming was in a huge circuit city parking lot but all the extras were inside the empty building for 14 hours all day with NOTHING to do. They only needed a few extras chosen at 5am on the 1st day. Everyone else played cards while I went stir crazy. We had no idea what was being filmed outside and what a totally EPIC episode this would be!!! I hadn’t even seen the show but I had heard it was awesome. The only actor I saw was Hank inbetween a scene. He was holding the blue purple bouquet 💐. He had a huge grin on his face. I got the impression he felt like the luckiest guy alive to be a short stocky bald guy with his looks in a wildly popular show - having fun and getting paid for it. Of course I was a huge fan of the show after that which was only on TV once a week!!

Super intense scene in this one with Hank. One of the most memorable to me.

Just found your channel, and have been binge-watching all night haha. Absolutely love these reactions ! :)

I'm only 3 minutes in but Spartan mentioned that Hank was happy to hunt down Tuco. But if you remember when he was getting his coworkers excited for searching for him, he walked out and told Gomez "We'll never find that guy". I may be confusing that with another character, but either way Hank actually didn't think they had a high chance of finding some of the higher up people they were searching for. When Hank did end up running into Tuco on accident, he was very shocked and not prepared. Which led to his future PTSD/Panic Attacks or whatever.

Watching your reactions, being on the edge of your seats this episode was mint 👌. This show is brilliant & it gets better too. Thanks for the reactions!

He he so glad I found this channel I immediately had to go to this episode 😆 That’s was one nerve wrecking episode. Can’t wait for you guys to finish this series! Cheers from Sweden 🇸🇪 :)

Hank the frikkin tank! Love it!

Another thing to note is Hector's chair - notice the wheel and spoke design? Interestingly, we didn't know he was capable of walking until the final moment when he stood up and towered over the twins. The whole scene brilliantly and succinctly conveyed who Hector was.

Thanks for editing out or blurring every meaningful scene.

How would you guys rate this episode for me it's one of the best episodes of this series Jesse emotions were so raw and pure and hank also opened up to Marie and owned his mistake everything was 10/10 for me

Y'all be reading Walt's motives so wrong (Or at last Spartan does). Walt wasn't missing Jesse. Walt see's getting Jesse back in the mix as a way of keeping him from ratting him out and also from suing Hank into the ground like Skylar wanted. Bro, pay attention.

Was just thinking of going to bed, but now im definitely waiting a bit.

I believe it was Gus that called Hank. Hank doesn't know Mike, but he knows Gus, so for that reason, it makes sense that he would use a voice modulator. I also detected a hint of an accent. Gus knew that the cousins would be wild cards in terms of sticking to their promise to leave Walter alone. They were a problem, and Gus solved it without getting his hands dirty.

I look forward to Mondays to see the beautiful Pudgey reacting

When Hank was under attack, I don't think I've ever cheered so hard for a TV character to survive!

Love the touch of the time being 3:07 the same season and episode number. Small touches and details like that, that make Breaking Bad great.

I really enjoy how P says "shits" all the time. Not sure if it's a down under thing, because we don't normally pluralize our poops. Love it. You all are doing a fantastic job.

My second favorite episode, so good. My number one is a while yet. It's great watching reactions on this show!

hank didnt freeze he was considering allot of things ...and fyi if somone warns you thats someones trying to kill you in 1 minute thats your best chance of gettin them ..if you leave you might not get a warning next time

excited for the next few (I have seen them on patreon already 🙃)

For those that haven't seen this series, you wouldn't have caught this. And they didn't show this in their reaction clips. But the clock in Hank's vehicle originally showed 3:07. Season 3, episode 7. Your welcome.

Hey S&P! Loving the reactions! 🎉 Hoping you'll give Black Sails a shot next!

Jesse's acting deserves an Emmys in this scene 19:٢٠

It was gus who called hank, he wanted him to go out in a firefight to bring attention to the cartel and not himself.

Cop beats up suspect. "Damn dude there's no way he loses his jawb!"

This is Hank's fav episode

Definitely one of the best episode

23:15 Tiny little meta-detail where episode 3x7 tips over into 3x8.

hank is actually a genius. i also thought he was freezing up but his plan was to defend himself if the call was real. i mean you saw how fast he reversed that car he was READY.

really appreciate how you improved your editing over the last few months! much love

Wake up, Eastern US… new Breaking Bad reaction is up at 4:00am 😅

Gomez pulled a hell of a prank on Hank.

Notice how everybody keeps ignoring the law when it suits them. But they'll take the moral high ground with others.

Let’s goooo! Always hype for the bb upload!

24:41 Imo it’s an unfortunate blessing that Hank froze up and didn’t leave right away. He was on his way home. If he pulled out of that parking lot, the twins might’ve followed him home. Marie would be in danger & Hank wouldn’t have had as much cover.

Walt is so sneaky.

Gus called him. He's the only one who knew.

Walt is paying Jesse out of his own pocket. Gale was getting paid by Gus. If Walt was only worried about getting snitched on, he would have had Jesse eliminated. Only someone that cares greatly for that person would willingly give them $1.5 million.

They have funny skits with Hank and Marie. Good cop bad cop is on youtube. It's 3 minutes, cracks me up.

17:36 I think it’s to protect Jesse, Hank and himself opposed to “missing Jesse”. Now he can solve Jesse wanting to come for him, get him to drop the charges on Hank and can do without (as Saul would put it) “looking for other options.”

The Heisenberg guardian angel clip was 'shopped from season 5. im assuming a third party that doesnt need to avoid spoilers pieced that together for the video?

Would you believe me if i tell you the whole hospital jesse-walt scene was improv? Holy Aaron Paul man... He IS jesse pinkman, 100/10 acting. And also Bryan Cranston, he just followed the vibe in that scene to keeo up with Aaron.

that heisenberg angel made me laught so hard xD

Pudgey, I just want to say that shirt looks amazing on you in contrast with your hair color and complexion...

According to rumor, that ax is hanging on the wall of Vince Gilligan's office.

JESSIE_ Some great acting!!!!!!!!

We start the episode with a "Kind of" Better caul Saul moment :) Dont know if thats a show with good metric to react, but one thing is certain... Thats one of the greatest shows coming out in the last 20 years! ... On another note... Hank and Marie are the only good guys around!... THATS MIKE that you are trying to remember the name, Pudgey! :) ... HE'S a "WEAPON"! Spartan did good, but Pudgey comments and understanding of the emotional relations between the characters in the series, really shined in this episode!... Good review! Aaron Paul performance in this episode AGAIN shows how great he is standing side by side with Brian Cranston. This is of course nothing we are not used to see... And of course we cant forget the number of awards they won just between both of them. SO just to put that in consideration here's the wiki list of that, which iam sure that those who like me have seen this in a weekly basis thru 5 seasons already know! From Wikipedia: ~ "The series received numerous awards and nominations, including 16 Primetime Emmy Awards and 58 nominations, including winning for Outstanding Drama Series in 2013 and 2014. It also won two Peabody Awards, one in 2008 and one in 2013." ~ "For his portrayal of Walter White, Bryan Cranston won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series four times, in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2014. Cranston also won the TCA Award for Individual Achievement in Drama in 2009 and the Satellite Award for Best Actor - Television Series: Drama in 2008, 2009, and 2010, as well as the Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Actor in a Drama Series and the Saturn Award for Best Actor on Television in 2012." ~ "Aaron Paul won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series in 2010, 2012, and 2014. Paul also won the Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor on Television in 2010 and 2012." ~ "Anna Gunn won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series in 2013 and 2014. For his work on season four, ~ Giancarlo Esposito won the Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series." ~ "In 2010 and 2012, Breaking Bad won the TCA Award for Outstanding Achievement in Drama, as well as the TCA Award for Program of the Year in 2013. In 2009 and 2010, the series won the Satellite Award for Best Television Series - Drama, along with the Saturn Award for Best Syndicated/Cable Television Series in 2010, 2011, and 2012. The series won the Writers Guild of America Award for Television: Dramatic Series in both 2012 and 2013." ~ "In 2013, it was named No. 13 in a list of the 101 Best-Written TV Series of All Time by the Writers Guild of America and won, for the first time, the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series. Overall, the show has won 110 industry awards and has been nominated for 262" Yup they are all great ... But still "Better Caul Saul" for me is on a different layer of depth, not better or worst, just a different one that gives meaning to certain aspects of truth, ethics and morality that we see unfolding thru the character of Saul Goodman, over the six-year period prior to the events of Breaking Bad and then after that... And its an essay to the statement that deep down people dont really change, its always an happy lie to think so, and sometimes works but normally it doesnt... And that is the tragedy, despite the efffort that sometimes might or could even exist in trying to change!... Its the tragedy of the human condition!... Despite efforts of what we know is not the right course of action, despite any development or enlightment that might exist, humanity will always repeat is mistakes under different circustances but repeat them no matter what! Thats why Saul's brother was always right in its assessement of is brother Jimmy AKA Saul! ... "Its all Good man!"... No! sometimes most of the times, its never good, its tragic!

Not ready for Ozymandias

And even after he’s threatened like this by Jesse, Wait still goes to lengths to protect him. So stupid

21:49 made my stomach hurt 😂

I'd love to see you react to The Sopranos when Breaking Bad is done!

lol "Walter misses Jessie"

mike knows all

Twins 🧍🏻🧍🏻 aren’t both dead! And the guy u can’t remember his name is Mike!

Mikw called him. Mike is the ex cop.

Jesse can never see that someone cares about him he thinks because his parents are tough love on him that they don't care he thinks that because Walter cuts him down all the time and he selfish means he doesn't care about him but Walt did he thought of him as a nephew but never told Jesse that he would save his life and call him son but Jesse never saw that he cares for him because he was always being manipulated by Walter he just didn't know how to care for Jesse in the right way hr had his own odd way of caring about him. Jesse just wantes him to be proud of him he finally applied himself and created meth almost as good as Walts and instead of being proud of him he got jealous and cut him down and called him a junkie loser maybe it was the bad day Walt had but hin doing thag to Jesse in the state that he is in emotionally and excepting himself as the bad guy thinking cooking meth is all he is good at doing Walt acting the way he did to hin really hurt Jesse because he looks up ti him he wants hia approval

Unrelated but Pudgey is so gorgeous!!! ❤ Love from Maine USA

Did u guys miss the opening scene mentioning the chicken man?

one of the brother did not die, will he spill the bean on Walter?

Walt gets rid of Gale for Jesse as to protect Jesse, Hank and himself… people refuse to see it because they have a blinding hatred for Walt and believe he has no redeeming qualities. Which is incredibly irritating at times and dumbs down the writing of the show by soooo much.

Why does Pudgey cover her head as if she’s the one getting shot 😂😂😂

Hank got rid of both twins WITHOUT his gun. Truly badass!

There is no three months. When you are in the game it's for life. You either die or spend the rest of your life in prison. It's like when a mafia member dies of old age. They say he died of unnatural causes.

You guys should react on prison break it is a great series

no, Spartan, Walt brought Jesse in not because he misses him, but because Jesse threatened the fuck out of him. why do you think Walt was so angry and tense in the first half of the episode? he's contemplating what to do with the Jesse problem. up until this point he's also had a good relationship with Gale, probably likes him a lot as a protege who worships him, yet he's so aggressive towards Gale because he's already thinking he needs to shut him out to bring in Jesse.

Dont forget to watch the El Camino movie sequel after. Its got some harsh reviews but i think it was definitely worth the watch to extend the series and spend more time with some of the characters

My sweet summer children, you're buying right into the narrative. First, you're right about the writing really breaking molds and writing their character with more depth than the tropes we're introduced to them from the beginning. Walter is more than just the smart nerdy teacher, Skyler is more than just the stay-at-home mom, Hank is more than just strict DEA agent and Marie is more than just the judgmental sister-in-law. They all are more human than that with range. Same with Jesse, Gus, Saul and Mike (the guy's name you kept forgetting.) However, you're buying into Jesse's narrative. Jesse isn't stable. His estrangement with his own family started way before Walter. His relationship with Jane was doomed to happen. Walter didn't kill Jane, he just didn't save her. Junkies OD all the time and laying on your side only helps if you don't move. They were bound to OD eventually even if Walter didn't roll Jane over. Walter was trying to save Jesse and still is. What I think you're forgetting is the arc of Jesse's character. He's impulsive, angry, hurt and prideful person. He isn't good at this side of business, Tuco was supposed to show you that Jesse isn't a top dog and in this line of business, people die. Jesse would have been killed multiple times over if not for Walter. Shit, Walter isn't that much better and if not for his genius would have been killed as well. That's the whole point Walter keeps trying to teach Jesse, but he can't see past his own rage and pride. The idea is to understand your weakness, not to let them defeat you and definitely not to ignore them, but to overcome them. You do that by understanding your blind spots and look out for them. If you're angry and do things impulsive you have to be able to stop yourself in the moment of anger and recognize you're compromised to reset your anger before making a decision. That's why he called Walter back at a later time when his pride and anger had passed. Walter, forgiving and being compassionate, didn't take the deal off the table because he cares for Jesse. When Tuco hurt Jesse, he came knocking. When Tuco wanted to kill Jesse, he vouched for Jesse. When Gus wanted nothing to do with Jesse, he stood up for him. Gus could have killed Jesse for using Walter's formula. Remember what happened with Combo, you step into the wrong terf and you're dead. The only reason they're all not dead isn't because of Jesse, it's because of Walter (Heisenberg.) The moment Tuco died everyone else would have started pushing into that territory to expand and that's how terf wars are started and end. Jesse was no one on the street. They were "Given" Tuco's terf by bigger people because of their product. Just as Mike kept the Mexican Cartel from killing Walter in his own home, Jesse and Walter were able to sell by the approval of someone more powerful. Jesse is only alive because of Walter's loyalty to him. Jesse keeps trying to fight him because of his own father issues he projects onto Walter. Walter being older and a former teacher takes that role. Even when Jesse asks to be his partner, Walter helps him as a father still even though Jesse isn't a good business partner. Just like what happened with Gus and Jesse getting high with Jane. Just as Jesse tries to sell to Gus without Walter. Just as Jesse tries to hurt Walter by hurting Hank. Who, unlike Jesse, owns his own mistakes and short comings. Owns his fear and anger and takes responsibility for his lapse of judgement and anger. I thought It was in this episode but you'll see Jesse, isn't him either. The two men closest to being respectable are Gus and Hank. They both are flawed as well. There's is another but that comes later. So no, it's not Walter's fault Jesse has nothing but his own flaws. Jesse's friends slim and Brandon are just pawns to Jesse. He uses them to either sell for him or sell to them. When do you see him reconnect with them for just fun or as friends outside this business? His parents after he got clean and bought the house, when did he reach out to them to reconnect and make amends? He's not because his pride and anger. They just wanted him clean and for it to stick, why hasn't he invited them over for dinner to show he's doing better? Because he's not. He's still dealing and when he had the money and change to start fresh that Walter gave him, he instead brought Hank right to them. He had more than enough money to start working or even invest into his own business, Jesse decided to compete with Walter. Yeah, great he's not using but he's still in the lifestyle trying to One up his father/Walter. If anything, he doesn't even care about his actual father, but he cares more about Walter because Walter actually shows up for Jesse. Every time Jesse was hurt, Walter was there. Every time shit hit the fan for Jesse, Walter shows up. Keep in mind this business isn't a restaurant. They don't settle patent disputes or location issues in court or breach of contract, they kill each other. If Walter really viewed Jesse as a "business" partner and he did the things Jesse had done, Jesse would have been killed by Tuco in that ditch. Look at what happened with Crazy 8 and his cousin, those were Jesse's partners before Walter got involved. They would have killed Jesse the day he showed up at crazy 8's place if not for Walter's product. He wasn't even the snitch, crazy 8 was. Walter has done nothing but look out and protect Jesse, not just as a partner but as a son. Does Walter degrade Jesse at times, yes. You're right he's bad for that and that's Walter's pride but Walter never swung at Jesse the way Jesse swings at Walter. That's because Walter is a father. He has two kids and Jesse is grown but still more of a son following his footsteps than Walter Jr. It's sad to see that hate toward Walter when he's done nothing but stick his neck out for Jesse, treat him as a son and try to teach him. When he tried to get Jesse off of Drugs countless times and tried to get Jesse out of the business to do something else. It's all pride on both their ends. Walter has the game changing formula and knowledge and Jesse was no body. Just a street level pusher about to be killed to take the fall for snitch who ratted out his cousin. So to say it's just business, no killing Jesse would be business. Saving his neck again and bringing him in as a partner 50/50 is love.

Thank you again for cutting all scenes that matter 🤬🤬

I don't know if this kind of censorship is common in Australia, but its not necessary for you to do that here in America (by "here" i mean on an American website). The blood is one thing, but censoring yourself saying a swear word is pretty egregious.

its no not nar

your reaction to this show make me happy... love from india🇮🇳

Is it weird that I feel sad for the 2 brothers.
