Breaking Bad (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

It's a recurring theme, as is the class struggle.

there's a leftie on the writing team for sure, see the zoom in on the Marxist Leninist books on Gales bookshelf.

It's not primary or secondary, it saturates everything, remember why Walt took to cooking in the first place, medical bills.

Also the constant reversal of perspective, the lab equipment and objects are given subjectivity, they gaze at Walt and Jess.

The series wouldn't have happened had Walt NHS I always thought

I don't think this is right - he cooks meth to pay for Walt jr & the babies college fees, the mortgage on the house and cost of living - it's quite explicitly counted in one of the first episodes.
He does use the money to pay for the treatment when he decides to do it, and it's certainly a consideration as to why he doesn't want to start treatment but not the only one - he doesn't want to spend his last few months sick from chemo, weak and tired and for that be the memory for his family.

He doesn't expect to survive even once he's being treated - when he goes into remission it's a big turning point for him and his attitude towards cooking meth and why he does it, he changes from getting cash being the primary motivation to wanting to be the king to prove to everyone else that he is the best.

Shrugs. That's your problem.

sadly for all of us it's rather ours as a shared ownership of being in receipt of your miraculous flights of whimsy and utter gender biased bullshit...

you see if the common denominator in these 'problems' within the boards as a whole is you then the person with the problem isn't always going to be them is it!... ever wonder why your posts on this subject get treated in the same manner Jazzz does when he comes up with another definitive proof of something...

it's because you, I'm afraid, are the Jazzz of gender politics around here...

Harsh but I'm sure people will let me know if I've said anything which is untrue...

I really can't see how anyone would consider her a nag, unless they considered Walt some kind of hero.


I've never heard men called nags, incidentally.

which, I'm glad someone has realised, was my point.

Well then once again OU and belboid decide what's common for the nation to have come across make massive assumptive leaps of logic and apply their own world experiences to everyone else... how fucking arrogant and middle class bourgeois can you get... this is the whole katie alsop if you can't afford a xmas wreath for your door, just go into the wood near your home and find some... blasie indifference to the fact that most people don't have a country pile to toddle off to an romp about in the woods...

by you, the statement is it's established that you and OU are nags. this is an unquestioned fact in the statement. Your assumption remains nags can only be women... which btw is sexist and provably false OU is a man... you I believe happen to be both a nag and and entirely separately female...

What is Walter's present story as to what he does all day?
Click to expand...

Skylar things he's the new Gus
Walt Jr doesn't care as long as he provides a big screen TV and other material goods
Marie assumed he's gambling again
Hank? Well, he's the only other person he knows and he's too busy on the trail of Mike's people to think about it...at the moment.

Walt doesn't know anyone else apart from Jessie, Saul and Mike and they're all in on it.
 
Yata said:
Walt hinting at "cutting" Mike out? Or was that last scene a warning to Jesse? Hard to tell
Click to expand...
neither really I thought it was a sign that Jessie saw that no matter what happens walter would never be satisfied, that even as jessie had once again saved his ras... he didn't recognise this and instead was only ever thinking about himself...

It was more of a that's one of the things walt says and jessie seeing that there was no change in walt at all inspite of everything...
 
Structaural said:
It was a warning to Jess that he shouldn't consider cooking on his own. The fucker.
Click to expand...
yeah I don't think it was. Jessie knows whatever happens he's got one over on walt cos jessie still has cash where as walt is broke again (who'd knew it's the start of the series... walts always broke at the start of the series!!).

It was more a I know you're mates with Mike but he's already costing us, he's gotta go...
