What’s really tragic, and ironic, about Walt’s memories of his father and how it shaped him is that, because of his decisions, he ends up doing the same thing to his daughter Holly, except she was still a baby and wouldn’t really remember the events that transpired, so her “memories” of her father would simply be told from others who knew him, and I honestly don’t know if they’d tell her the brutal truth or tell her about the man they knew before his cancer diagnosis.

I thought a cool idea for a sequel series would be centered around Flynn and Holly twelve years after the end of BB. Flynn's feelings have changed, especially after seeing several national publications about his father. Coupled with Holly's growing interest in her father's life, and well-off with Gretchen and Elliot's money, the two hit the road to write the definitive story on the ABQ Heisenberg era.

His pride was his Achilles heel. It's never really mentioned in any of the videos I've watched on the show but early on he was offered a job with Grey Matter. The insurance would've taken care of his treatments. The money would've definitely been better than his teaching job. All he had to do was swallow his pride and his family would've been 100 percent fine financially when he was gone. Great show . I love rewatching episodes

I watched this and laughed maniacally like Walt in the crawlspace when he died and forever became Heizenblurb. This commentary completely missed the point of the show, which is to teach its audience how to transform yourself from a total beta male loser into the perfect human, as demonstrated by Walt’s transformation into Heissssenbarrrgggghhhlarghlarghl. Since I watched breaking bad I’ve started doing meth, being awful to all women, breaking the trust of everyone close to me, and murdering innocent people. I’ve become the best version of myself, all thanks to this “how to win at life” guide. Thanks, Breaking Bad.

There is one more moment when you get the hint of Walt’s reflection on how he’s remembered. During the Fly episode, he mentioned to Jesse that he wished he would die the night he left the house to visit Jesse and Jane the night she died. He knew everything changed that night and that he would never be the same after that point. His image that Walt represented in his mind was finally killed off only to be replaced with Heisenberg, the monster Walt tried to wrestle with and lost to in that moment. He knew from that point, he would be remembered as the monster Heisenberg and not innocent Walt in the eyes of his family and Jesse.

Allow me to further change your perspective on the show: Walter White is YOU, and everyone else who sucks at life. Heeeeiisenblarrggh is the ideal male, someone who the writers meant to encourage everyone to emulate. So quit your job, actively destroy all your relationships, place the importance of money, power, and indulging your own ego above everything else, and above all: kill LOTS of people. At first it will be hard and you might be sad, but before you know it you’ll be poisoning young children and feel great about it. There. That’s the point of Breaking Bad. Or as I call it: “How to win at life.”

Thank you for offering another perspective to the way why Walt is the way he is. In other analyses only see the top layer of him being prideful and trying to overcompensate. You bring several scenees into the big picture and showcase how great of a show breaking bad really is. The lesson one could conclude of your analysis is very relatable for people that think that being a caring person who swallows up stress is good when it can lead into the opposite. Walt probably had this mindset before he got the cancer and thought that living like that would cause less friction. But it all adds up and as a person who tends to avoid trouble most of the times there are moments when the boundary gets pushed too far and you have to react. But more often than not the reaction is either overblown or your environment is not used this version of yourself.

This video of yours really hit home for me, especially because this moment in Breaking Bad is one I'd forgotten since it's been several years since I watched the series in full. Some things in the media we consume only become poignant for us when we experience different things first hand. Walter's memory of his father is similar to how I sometimes viewed my mother in her final days. It's only been six months since she died, so I tend not to dwell on the memories of her being in the hospital or hospice care, and thankfully I have many other memories of her that are good, but what sticks out to me about Walter's dialogue here is that it shows he wanted to protect his son from the darker aspects of his character. He wanted his son to see him as strong and reliable. He didn't want his son to see him as a fearful pushover. I think what this moment showcases very well is this idea that parents often hide their flaws from their kids, especially when they're young. But some things, like illness and how it affects a person, are difficult to hide long-term. My mother was sick on and off for most of my life from Crohn's disease. In her final days when her health was going downhill rapidly, she still tried to protect me. Kept telling me that I didn't need to check on her every hour. And she reassured me that I did a great job taking care of her even though I felt as if I'd completely failed her. What Walter missed in this dialogue was Walter Jr. telling him remembering him in that weak state wouldn't be so bad...because in that state he was his true self. And the one thing that's crucial in growing up and maturing as a person is coming to the realization that your parents aren't perfect. They have strengths and weaknesses like any other person. They can make bad choices with good intentions backing them up. Walter was a loving father, but that part of him ended up tainted in the eyes of his family as you said. He sacrificed that for his ambitions. I feel blessed in knowing that the thing I remember best about my mother is that, for better or worse, she was always honest and real with me. And she was also the one who introduced me to Breaking Bad too. XD lol. Anyway, I really appreciate this video. It helped me to reevaluate my grief and understand it a bit better. And eventually I need to watch Breaking Bad again too. God bless you and thanks for this great analysis. :)

I think most of us with science, particularly chemistry backgrounds got a big kick out of Walt choosing Heisenberg as his alter ego. Most fans of the show probably never heard that name before so of course have no idea who Werner Heisenberg was or what he was famous for. However I did and so whenever Walt was in Heisenberg persona I was always uncertain as to what would happen next. They couldn’t have picked a better name for Walt’s alter ego.

I am glad that the small detail of chemicals being a smell that Walt remembers distinctly is highlighted, because that explains why he loves chemistry so much. The reason why he has such an ingrained passion to learn about the combination of elements of the world is because it reminds him of something that his mind couldn’t really comprehend itself, his father.

you're stretching the meaning of the scene. that line probably had zero significance in the minds of the writers and it honestly doesn't make any sense to immediately assume he was interested in chemistry because... he remembered the smell of chemicals?

I think it was implied but I think he sees himself pre diagnosis like he did his father, or rather sees his vulnerability and kindness as weak in the same sense that he saw his father as weak which is what really repelled him from this kind and loving version of himself.

Beautiful video essay. I don't think a lot of people truly understand the value of good media analysis. Good media is difficult to understand, and good understanding is the only way to gain insights into what the creator of that media was truly trying to express. These things are typically complex, difficult, emotional, and/or beautiful ideas that are deeply enriching to the audience who manages to understand. Specifically, your description of the dichotomy between your experience with death and Walt's, and the reason why you don't remember clearly and Walt does was, in a single word, enlightening. So thank you.

Walter's conception of strength and masculinity and agency was simply warped. In his mind, he thought being able to control a drug empire made him powerful. But in reality most people see that empire and the first thing they think of is the sheer amount of damage caused by those drugs on the community. In his mind he thought being able to beat his enemies to a pulp and destroy them proved he was smarter and stronger. In reality most people actually see it as horrific acts of violence he both inflicts and forces Jesse to inflict to protect his own ego. Walter looked up to an image of a strong, silent man providing for his family as the pedestal of masculinity he should leave behind. In reality, not communicating anything meant he left his wife to grieve for her husband's potential death completely alone, tortured Skyler into thinking he was cheating on her, then plagued her with shame, guilt, and fear of him dying or destroying the entire family through the entire show. The money he was providing came from destroying the community with violence and drugs, thus corrupting every bit of genuine love and goodness he gave to his family before. Imagine one day seeing a friend sobbing from his dad ODing and then realizing later that he may have ODed on the drugs that your dad created, and that the money you used to eat food and go to school may have come from hundreds of people like your friend's dad getting addicted and ODing on your dad's drugs. Imagine what kind of mindfuck that would be. It's funny--the actual legacy Walter left behind is the corruption of every good thing he actually did out of love for his family.

Nice timing after the premiere of the final season of Better Call Saul last night. This is still my all time favorite show followed closely by Mad Men, The Wire and The Sopranos. Fantastic actors and fantastic writing in each of those shows. I loved this scene. Walt Jr. Was totally right in that the previous scenes were the most human and vulnerable I think I'd ever seen Walt throughout the entire series. As someone who had to watch my Girlfriends mother slowly fade away from cancer and then watched her mother's sisters also get cancer and fade away it definitely has an effect on you. I remember how every person had their own way of dealing with the pain they were in. My GF's uncle who is gay got heavily intoxicated and tried to hit on me. Of course there was the manly part of me that was like "knock this dude out" but I knew he was grieving and wasn't in his right mind. So I just walked away from the situation. Sickness is such an unfair part of life and I hate the way it takes away the person little by little. By the end most of them arnet even there any more. And to be clear, when I said there was a part of me that thought about knocking out my GF's uncle, that wasn't my default emotion. I only felt that after he put his hand on my leg and said some very dirty things. But like I said I knew he wasn't in his right mind so I just walked away.

Honestly loved this. There aren’t many good video essays on Breaking Bad but this was certainly fantastic, from your thesis to the quality production. I think you could have expanded on the scene of him crying around Walt Jr. on the possibility that this was him leaning in to the Heisenberg character, as - at least to me - he seems very manipulative. How can we be so sure that this is the genuine Walter White. He plays these kinds of stories like he does to Jesse with the rycin. Perhaps you could argue it is an extension from his earlier speech with the talking pillow, but to me that could be taken the other way, which is that he’s spinning a story he already has a grasp on to manipulate Walt Jr. and make him worried and make him loyal to his father. Just a thought; still absolutely loved it though!
@Aleczandxr

Just to clarify, I wouldn’t have expanded on it in that way because I don’t personally agree with that interpretation. Glad you enjoyed the video.
