One of the most powerful scenes of the series has to be Jesse bleeding out in his recovery group meeting with the parable of how he killed a problem dog. I hope that scene was on his Emmy resume.

About to watch the finale of season four. Just smoked a bowl. Holy fuck am I excited. Show feels like it's been bubbling to a point that makes me have a hard time imagining how they're going to have a season five though.

I'm either really high or old man bell spelling out "Suck My..." for Schraeder in the office with all the agents around was the funniest thing in this series. The sense of satisfaction on his face was gold.

Did you catch the subtle message at the very end of the episode? That Walt is the one that poisoned the kid, not Gus?
It truly was one of the best single episodes of television that has ever been produced. Right on part with the Season 3 finale of Sons of Anarchy. |

HOly fuck I so get it now! There was a scene a few episodes ago where Walt was spinning around a gun. Twice it pointed at him but once it pointed towards a potted plant which made him gaze off in the distance. I thought nothing of it but it was foreshadowing his plan to poison Jesse's gf's kid and convince him it was really Gus who did it Holy fucking shit. They had to have contemplated unveiling that spoiler by showing that Walt had the poisoned cigarette in his pocket but the way they did it was much better.
God damn what a sweet ride this show is. It's not The Wire, not even really close in terms of being an artistic masterpiece, but it sure is entertaining as fuck. |

Also, at this point honestly how can Hank not know that Walter is Heisenberg? He's conspicuously missing from family safe-house for days while Gus and meth lab get taken out in two separate explosions. If he doesn't put two and two together early in season five it'd be a sham.

One thing that seemed a little flimsy about the way season four ended is how Walter just poisons that kid thinking he'll be able to convince Jesse that Gus did it?! I mean why on earth would Gus poison that kid? It lacked motive.

I believe the plan was to push Jesse over the edge of trusting Walt. Gus was slowly prying a wedge between the two of them, but, even at the height, Jesse wouldn't let Gus kill Walt. If he could convince Jesse that Walt was behind this, it may have pushed him over the edge.

Right, but it was Walt who poisoned the little boy. So Walt's metagame was to do that knowing he would be blamed for it but betting that before Jesse killed him he could convince him it was Gus who did it? What I don't understand is how Walt would ever think that Jesse would acquire reason to believe it was Gus who poisoned the boy. From Jesse's perspective why would Gus do that? I guess his hypothetical motive was like you said, to blame Walt for having done it.
I just watched the last 10 minutes of season four for the fourth time since last night. It's definitely among the best sequence of television I can ever remember seeing and would have been a perfectly fitting way to end the series so I can only fear that the show will have jumped the shark in season five. But on that note, some predictions or should I say storylines I wouldn't mind seeing in season five: - Mike reappears healed from the gunfire in Mexico. He initially appears as a possible threat seeking vengeance for Gus, but then reveals his interest is to team up with Walt to help him rebuild the meth empire that was Gus's. Saul Goodman will be in the picture for much of this enterprise as well. - Hank puts it all together and is met with a conundrum regarding what to do. He approaches Walt revealing that he knows everything. Walt is left with no choice but to come clean to Hank. Walt pleas passionately with Hank to just let it die claiming that he got mixed up in it and had to do what he had to do in order to save/protect his family but that he is completely done being a meth manufacturer. This will of course be a lie as he will have already begun the process of rebuilding the empire with Mike and Saul's assistance. Season five will hinge on this dynamic between Walt and Hank. If it's the final season (is it?) I could see it ending with something as dramatic up to and including Walt's death as he is clearly a man gone black (you'll notice the lyrics of played at the end of season four was highly fitting for Walt's transformation into the largest drug kingpin in southwest U.S. |

Woah just tonight realized that the final season of Entourage aired several months ago. Fuck me I need to watch that. Almost a little afraid to though because I don't want to face the reality that it's over.
