You guys aware that he passed? Was a damn good, albeit underrated actor, and by all accounts was an even better human being. As many roles as he had throughout over 40 years as an actor, I've never seen him do anything other than knock that shit out of the park. Even his briefest, as we see here & in El Camino, parts were perfectly played
Yeah it's funny how what was supposed to be viewed as living in squalor in the 2010's looks like peaceful tranquility in the mid 20's. I'll just be here living in essentially poverty until I won't.
I like that his time here before the finale is a microcosm of his pre-crime life. His living conditions are stressful but not horrible, and he seems mildly content with it, but underneath there’s a deep resentment building up until it eventually bursts.
Its funny how he makes a backhanded comment about the price of a trip to costco - but after a few check ups hes begging him to stay for an hour and willing to pay 50k for his company ( a man whos company seems fairly cold to begin with )
While he didn’t, he also understood he was being well paid to be a vulture once he died to reap all his money he worked for as if he earned it. I think Walt was wise in seeing that part and trying to do something at least bit noble in funneling it to his kids as intended instead of the vacuum guy in the end.
@@PEDROGARCIA-qj3gr Maybe you're just hopelessly stupid? I'm pretty sure if you can't get reading, then you probably are. Reading is hard, comprehension is even harder. Go back to school, read books, maybe stop watching tv and you'll get there. Good luck
@@warcraftarthas Who cares... soda is a healthier option than meth. unless were talking Organic Free-Range Gluten-Free Methamphetamine made by Heisenberg. I'm pretty sure you can only get something like that at Trader Joe's, not Costco (and never get Costco meth - its full of preservatives, GMOs, and MSG)
I loved Robert Foresters part at the end . It was something about these scenes that were incredible. It gave me that interested anxiety feeling! RIP Robert F!
@Alan-ii9te he was there for about 6 months if I recall correctly. In the Charlie rose interview they say they have been looking for him for 6 months.
It didn’t have to be Costco he could’ve just said that. Could’ve been any store and the guy could’ve brought the stuff from anywhere (if it didn’t have to be refrigerated or anything)
@@Rg-kp4nw I notice during the scene where Ed visits Walt a few months later in the episode one of foods he brought has Kirkland branding on it. So it seems he did go to Costco if my vision is correct
If I were Walt I would just live out the rest of my short life in that cabin. Freedom, warm fire, barrel of money, steaks in front of the TV, and a guy coming back every month to bring you whatever you need.
Walt was willing to accept defeat, 'til he saw Elliot and Gretchen on TV talking about him and that anger sparked his ego to lead to one of the best season endings in Television history 😂
I would just request entire series of shows, movie franchises, and books. Lots and lots of books. I would even request paint or art supplies. I would love an empty book. This feels like a dream to me.
It didn't help that the amount he paid to disappear was pennies compared to what he was making, even with most of his money being taken by Jack's crew.
Arrogant? He wouldn't have made it this far without HIS intelligence, without HIS ambition, resilience and courage/balls you can even add that. Still respect worthy for that.
@@TheShad0wPlayer He was arrogant. He wasn't able to control his ego/pride and it wound up costing him everything including his life. He may have been a chemistry genius but he was an emotional imbecile.
so true! and spending $50,000 at a trip to Costco is pretty easy, and I would bet the average family typically spends AT LEAST 50k each week at Costco.. especially if you get a soda and a slice of pizza. I usually get two slices like a baller!
yet the ones making the subs are sometimes mistaken themselves. example: he said "ought to be enough in the tank to last out the winter" but the subtitles say winner which is completely wrong.
@@niftycage74 well I'm not a native speaker either yet I can tell those mistakes through the context. Also, since Americans don't pronounce the "t" they pronounce winter like winner.
The cabin scene was excellent . It showed the end result of a criminal in hiding. No contact with people sounds like an easy thing to do but you’d be amazed how it gets to you. Alone, no family, tv, phone can’t leave the property. All that money and no way to use it. It may not be prison but it is prison
If I had near limitless money and WASN'T on the run. This is what I would choose to do. Never have to go to town just have my very own uber eats guy to get my stuff for me. Live out my life in a comfy little hunting camp. Please lord give me this
It's not far off. I have a portable Honda generator that can output 13.3 amps running / 16.6 amps max and have used it to run the fridge, some lights, a computer, and an Internet router.
@@ML-sc3pt the freezer is the only that uses a considerable portion of that Lights are negligible and the tv is only for the occasional watch of the same dvd
This feels like the prison sentence that Walter never got, he can't leave, socialize, and has nothing for entertainment. The month he spent in the cabin must've been terrible, nothing to do as his body gradually failed.
@@jto541I’d say S1 is the weakest, but it’s not because there’s anything WRONG with it. It’s just the least good season of the show. Still some of the best television to ever come out, just less legendary than the other seasons. I blame a lack of quotable material. Like, try and think of popular BB quotes (besides memes) from S1
This episode is my favorite in the show, its the moment where Walter makes the decision to face his actions instead of trying to run from them like he always has
Anyone else find it somewhat unbelievable that Walt was recognized almost immediately after setting foot outside this place in the last episode? Like I somehow doubt that someone in such a small town would have recognized a drug lord from way out west, especially one who had been missing for a year
He wasn't recognized, it was only after seeing Elliot and Gretchen on TV talking about how he had no part at all in the research that started their company Grey Matter (that made them billionaires, "with a b"). That he called in in such a public way was what led to his location being tracked so quickly. He knew what would happen, but his pride wouldn't let his name get dragged though the mud, by Gretchen and Elliot of all people.
Nobody recognized him. He tried to call Walter Jrs school and Walter jr went off on him that he was the biggest scumbag on the planet and hung up. Walt felt defeated and realized there was nothing really worth living for so he called the police on the bar phone. As he was waiting for the police, an interview with Gretchen and Elliot came on tv about them denouncing he had anything to do with grey matter. It pissed him off and his ego kicked in and he escaped
Walter White would go nuts in there. He would want textbooks on chemistry, maybe on computer programming or other high level topics. The ending is ill-conceived, it wouldn't be that hard to get a false identity and facial reconstruction. Breaking Bad 2: Dark Web Drug Lord would be completely believable. The plot could center on reconnecting with his kids using someone else's face while running a drug empire and trying to re-assimilate into society.
As cold as it sounds, if I was that cleaner guy I'd have done something terrible and take the barrels of cash and wiped my hands clean of the whole situation
Heroes was amazing, I just re-watched it again recently. The sequel Heroes Reborn, not so much. However! There is another series in the making right now for a new one, am looking forward to that.
Besides the necessities. I'd be happy with no TV or phone or distractions. I'd request art supplies, notepads, pens, pencils and books! Books on bushcraft, survival stuff and keep myself occupied carving, crafting, building skills
He's basically calling out the guy, that his "Supply Run", is merely a $50K bill paid by Walter, to run to Costco. Just trying to make sense of the situation, and joke about the things he finds absurd
