Earlier (before the final 8 episodes starting airing) I would have put money on Madrigal and Grey Matter being connected somehow; I actually thought that the ricin was going to Chez Schwarz in one of those packets of noodles Elliott and Walt "lived on" while writing their theses. Seems a bit late to be messing about with them now, though.

That's the thing, it seems far too late now. I figure they initially had an entirely different direction for the show in season 1.

Though of course, it is breaking bad, christ knows!

Right now, Walt is the least of Jesse's problems. Todd has beaten the cr@p out of him and chanied him to the cooker.

I doubt if this is Jesse's final contribution to the show. A showdown with Walt is very much on the cards.

Great interview in Rolling Stone magazine with Bryan Cranston.

He persuades Jesse to end his relationship with Andrea, whom Jesse loves, and he poisons Brock, Andrea's son. He ruins Jesse's life!
Okay, hang on a second. [Laughs] Jesse is already a drug dealer, he's just a bad one, an inefficient one. So I didn't corrupt him there. Then the first killings. How did they come about? Jesse brought Krazy-Eight and Emilio into the picture. And they were going to kill us. So how is that Walt's issue about introducing death or destruction?

Vince says he's lost all sympathy for Walt.
Fúck him. [laughs] That, to me, is like hearing Vince say he's lost all sympathy for me.

Walt also stands by while Jesse's next girlfriend Jane chokes to death.
Hmm. Certainly some conflict there. But isn't it true that she got Jesse hooked on heroin? What happens to people who are hooked on heroin? They usually die, at some point. Now, that's certainly a justification, I'll grant you that. But it's like we were talking before. There is no clean version of this.

So does Walt deserve to live?
Does anybody? Was it fair that he got lung cancer, as a non-smoker? Does he deserve terminal lung cancer? You can open up a whole set of questions like that. What's fair?

I reckon Lydia will meet Todd, see Jesse and persuade Todd to let him go. They'll probably ride then for the duration of the episode until Walt comes on the scene like some sordid porno.

Walt has a go and as he finishes he shouts "Whats my name?"
