yeah fair point. I was running out the door to work when I wrote that shit. I'm just wondering how they're gonna work it out for old mate. He's got a disabled kid, got crapped over for his true calling in research to work shitty chem class in buttfuck idaho and have to moonlight a shitty job and now has lung ca. so that's supposedly makes it okay for him to cook and sell 99% pure meth that will ultimately destroy his community if you look at like that. The DEA cop is a shmeggy fuckwit who we as viewers are led to dislike while the dealer dude is an antihero. It's great tv, real murky moral shit and I like how the flaky dude is showing some bottom end in the last episode.. I was just trying to start a 5 pager. heh.
Personally I relate to the dude. I probably wouldn't have taken the money either. I hate handouts. They only end up putting you in someone's pocket. Glad to see he's gonna go back to cooking meth (solely from a plot standpoint). This episode was painful to watch most of the way. Too slow, too much family meeting time, too much of well, nothing really. It was purely for development of Walt's past, and to throw a new dude into the mix with the idiot kid. Next one should pick up a bit though.
It seemed like there was a lot of unspoken drama. Things will probably pick up once they start cooking meth again.
I'd agree ep. 5 was slow but no less entertaining. The intervention scene was extremely well done and blackly comic as is par. How terminal illness affects families is as central a theme to the show as the bad stuff Walt gets into. And hey, the ep still had meth cooking scenes.
The DEA Uncle really is a great character.
