From working together to both want the other to get killed. From closest allies they became the worst ememies, even though Jesse betrayed Walter to Hank and DEA Walter still saves him on the last Breaking Bad episode and Jesse refuses to kill Walter. I never understood their complicated relationship, at first Jesse does not betray Walt to Hank, at next Walt saves him from the drug dealers that killed a child-soldier, also Jesse killes Gale in case of Walt not get killed and finally Jesse doesn't let Gus to kill Walt. Why they saved each other lifes and at next Jesse betrayes and wanted to kill Walter after he saved him from the police and from death and Walter was also wanting Jesse dead after he saved his life by the dealers
While I was rewatching the show I couldn't help but notice that Jesse looks kinda high in the episode where he is recording his confession tape with Hank. I mean his jaw is going all over the place, and from the context of the show we now that he was using at the time. Did anyone else notice this ?

What exactly does Jesse think happened to Tomas? Does he think Gus had him killed or does he think the two dealers acted alone? I don't feel like Jesse would be loyal to Gus in season 4 if he thought Gus ordered Tomas killed.
9/10
It wasnāt what i fully expected. I thought that the opening with Mike was cool. The flashbacks of Jesse being captivate was pretty cool, and seeing how non-chelaunt Todd was about Sonia was pretty terrifying.
Neil was a good antagonist (Iād call him the main one), it was sorta weird that they sorta just put him in there, because there was no other scene with him in Breaking Bad, but they still made it entertaining. Old Joe was in it, and I liked that. Ed was in there, and I respect how he was on conditions, and I agreed with him against Jesse sorta. The Walt scene was sorta heartwarming with his line āyou didnāt have to wait all your life to do something specialā I liked how Badger and Skinny helped Him out. And I liked the ending part, where Jesse sorta smiles. I felt like the pacing was a little off, but thatās probably cuz Peter Gould had nothing to do with this movie, at least, in my opinion thatās the reason.
So yeah, good movie, glad it wrapped up Jesseās story in a way it makes sense.
Actor of Jesse and Walter was taught on how to make meth, But obvious reasons (They don't want kids breaking bad) they had to change it up a little

If you take the elements in the word Heisenberg (He, I, Se, N, Be, Rg) their atomic numbers add up to 211. 211 or 2x11 - season two episode 11, Mandala. Mandala is the episode where Gus Fring is first introduced to the show. I this episode, he meets the one and only HEISENBERG.
Coincidence or not??
I love how Chuck and Walter compare as family members to Jimmy and Jesse respectively, when it comes to trust and assuming good in the other.
When Chuck makes a "mistake", first instinct is to blame Jimmy for it, and doesn't even consider or humor the possibility of another reason behind the mistake, especially when there is no actual proof or even indication that Jimmy was behind it.
Compare it to Walter when he notices a missing half a pound of product. He tries to consider every possible source of error under the sun before blaming Jesse. He even goes as far as blaming the stupid fly because he doesn't want to believe that Jesse did it. Only at the end of the fly episode does he address it to Jesse and warns him that IF he did do it he wouldn't be able to protect him. Next episode he does start keeping an eye on Jesse - he does doubt him of course, but still, no direct accusation without a proof.
Even before, when Jesse got beat up by Hank and threatened to cook again and rat Walter out when he gets caught, Walter somehow believes that Jesse won't actually do it, despite Jimmy's rightful concerns. When he makes Jesse his partner again, it wasn't out of concern for himself (maybe partly?) as much as it was to protect Hank at Skyler's request. Walter assumed loyalty in Jesse, even when Jesse would say and do the exact opposite.
Even when shit really hit the fan in the end, with Jesse trying to burn down Walter's house and then saying that he planned to inflict an even bigger harm on him, Walter couldn't imagine Jesse would rat on him. At Skyler's request he does put a hit on him, but defended Jesse when Todd thought he ratted him out.
Somehow, it seems Jane's dad's speech about never giving up on family really got into Walter. Even when all evidence showed that Jesse is gonna sink him down, he would look the other way and stick with Jesse. Even when he put a hit on him to protect his family, he assumed the best in Jesse and couldn't even imagine him teaming up with Hank.
Don't get me wrong. Walter (rightfully) believed Jesse was stupid and impulsive, and made that very clear on multiple occasions. But even then, he trusted Jesse more than he should ever have, which baffles me, but definitely makes him a much better family/partner than Chuck.

I know it sounds stupid, but someone mentioned Walter "bringing down a plane" as one of his sins in a Reddit comment:

This is an example of the thing that pisses me off with the Walter haters: Walter indeed does many bad and stupid things, but somehow people blame every sin under the sun on him. When you rationally think through things though, you realize that many of the bad things that happen trace back to other characters such as Jesse, not Walter. Walter however, being the mature one in the partnership, gets all the blame.
Let's try tracing the events from just before the crash. A distressed father is doing the controls. A combination of two events is to blame - the father being distressed and him being allowed to do flight control. The latter, along with the system itself being vulnerable, is definitely the fault of the government as Walter correctly puts it. The former, on the other hand, is the fault of JANE first and foremost for doing heroine. People often blame her death on Walter for shaking her and then not saving her, but imagine with me for a second that Walter hadn't come that night, what would have happened? Jane would have still disappeared the next day, and in a matter of week her dad would learn about her death anyway. Walter's actions that night wouldn't have impacted that part of the story that much.
What about her being on the heroine in the first place? Well blaming that on Walter would be stretching it a lot, as she hardly even knew about Walter at that point. Even Jesse can be hardly blamed for that, as he did ask her to leave the house before he did the drugs.
The only purpose the plane serves is the butterfly effect. A butterfly effect of that type can't be really be rightfully blamed on a person so far away from the actual trigger, yet people's hate boner for Walter somehow throws logic outside the window.

Is it just me or did these 2 have some weird sexual energy going on in El Camino? It was a hard and uncomfortable watch. I don't understand either bc I thought these 2 hated each other. Maybe Jesse started to like him once he'd gained a few pounds. Maybe Todd was keeping him as some kind of sex slave. We don't know what is going on behind the scenes. I would watch again and try figure out for myself but I'm worried I'm gonna find it too awkward and have to turn it off and waste my time. Could someone clear this up?
