Oh, god, so much! Should I whitefont? It's high HSQ, so I will

Mike told Walt to abort but Walt had the guys finish pumping until he had the full 900 gallons, then they raced the clock to get the seals and whatever put back together. Todd (I think that's his name, Landry from FNL) had to climb down the side of the car and jump off while the train was moving. Jesse LAY DOWN BETWEEN THE TRACKS until the train passed over him.

So they're all jubilant that that worked and they didn't get caught and the kid from the opening scene with the tarantula rides up and, like, waves at them. And Landry shoots him, bang, no hesitation, while Jesse is saying "No, no, no".

Credits and previews.

Wait--the blond kid shot him? Have we seen him before? Do we know why he's a hardcore kid-killer?

Did we see Walt's reaction to the boy being killed?

The show is still really good, and I think my problem might be that I saw the final episode of last season by mistake before any of the others, but I've lost touch with everyone but Jesse. I could not give one fuck if anyone else lived or died in the end. If the show ends with him planting a flag into a smoking heap of their decapitated heads, I'd be a-okay with it all.

He works for the exterminators/burglars, and he brought himself to Walt's attention at the first house where they pulled the cooking-inside-the-tent thing by mentioning that he'd spotted and disabled a nannycam. So he's a go-getter, I guess, and Walt had emphasized that no one outside of them who were robbing the train could know what happened. That's all we know about him, I think.

We did not see Walt's reaction, yet, unless I missed it in my own reaction.

Jesse is my favorite, but I still like Hank and Walt Jr. Marie I was never fond of, but I'd rather she lived. Skyler, man, Skyler is just so screwed that I hurt for her, but I'm pretty resigned to her suffering at this point.

Hank suffered a downswing this week, actually. I know nothing anyone says to a pre-verbal baby counts, but I still thought it creepy.

He hasn't done anything wrong-- he totally has the moral and ethical high ground (unless I missed something in S4), but I am not vibing on his how. His wife is horrific, I've been imaging methods of her death for a while now.

"Flynn"--I'm sure I'm not giving him enough teenaged boy benefit of the doubt. I will settle for sending him off to boarding school. And the baby is blameless, but I don't like the way the genetic dice are stacked...inasmuch as you don't stack dice.

I was wondering how the kid earned his way into that gig, and if he was going to be a potential weak link. He may be a liability, but clearly not in any way I'd been thinking.

Yeah, I was expecting maybe Walt to decide the kid was unreliable and knew too much. I had my "don't kill Landry" wail all cued up and ready to go but they pulled the rug out from under me.

Flynn, as I suppose he is liking to be called again, earned a whole bunch of bonus points from me last season for being all honest and clear-headed when Walt was all "I don't want you to remember me like this". I think that was last season. It made a big impression on me, whenever it happened. I'll cut him a lot of slack.

Marie is pretty awful, but sometimes she comes through when the chips are down and I'm fairly sure she hasn't killed anyone.

She's just stolen a lot of things! With the exception of Skyler, Walt's family is pretty clean, and I do not want them to die. I never thought about Jesse teaming up with Hank, but that is an idea. I think I am really, really attached to the idea of Jesse killing Walt at this point. I feel like it's the only way it can end, where the whole show has been leading.

The end of the episode destroyed me. I had to keep myself from crying for a while after.

Leverage was fun, and it was cool to see Eliot in cooking mode and get a little backstory on that, but I was a little confused on Parker's story. We already knew she loved stealing things. That was her Thing. She had to become a foodie for a night to realize that she loved stealing?

I think she realized she could love other experiences besides stealing. She broke into wherever it was at the end just to look at art, not take it, was my interpretation.

Yeah, I thought that too, -t.

I did find that kind of disappointing, though. If she hears music in anti-theft devices, leave her alone. Everyone doesn't have to orgasm over the same societally approved things. Listen to Hardison jizz over a laser gun and foam cooking.

If she hears music in anti-theft devices, leave her alone. Everyone doesn't have to orgasm over the same societally approved things.

Yeah, that was what confused me. I think -t has the right read, and that makes sense, but the idea that Parker "doesn't know how to like things" is ludicrous. She's clearly passionate about her art, and her art is theft. And not just that, she's also demonstrated a love of jumping off things and dangerous situations in general.

It was her driving to expand her horizons, at least, not anyone telling her she needed to. Though why no one could just tell her that thievery was her thing and that was cool I don't know.
