The most underrated moments in this show are Walt's reactions when he is being made out to be a poor defenceless victim. Every time it happens he starts to visibly squirm and appear almost disgusted . Like when Walt Jr shows him the "save walter white" website, or when Hank says he'll look after his family if he dies. And then the best example of this, when he cracks right before his "I am the danger" speech. He'd rather destroy his life than be remembered as a victim.

Also, THE moment that I really think sunk Walt, when the White's had dinner at Hank and Marie's. An intoxicated Walt couldn't stand for Hank to surmise that the late Gale Boeticker was Heisenberg, which put the case to rest as far as Hank was concerned. Walt then foolishly and boldly declares that the notes of the meth lab that Boeticker had in his possession were nothing but "rogue copying of someone else's work," and that Heisenberg was still more than likely at large. This caused Hank to restart his investigation, which ultimately led to Gus Fring, which of course led to Walt.

@@uzairshahid7097 Fly was a character analysis episode made due to budget restrictions during the seasons production. It doesn't move the plot forward, but it definitely is a great episode that gives us depth and imporant character understanding with Walt and Jesse. Their traits are highlighted in the episode so perfectly, as well as their toxic relationship by showing us their wildly opposing desires from one another. Walt's stubborness when it comes to perfection, and precise decision making, versus Jesse's impulsive tendancies to attack problems head on, without much thought into it. These are seen in many ways throughout the series', but only in this episode are we stripped away of all intense plot and storytelling, that we can actually see how the writers want us to interpret these characters and understand them. There's also the imporant realisation of guilt that Walt has for Jane's death, and Jesse telling his story about his aunt. There's so much in this episode that simply is about nothing at all plot wise. That's what makes it amazing. To appreciate Fly, you have to appreciate the art of filmmaking that aims to intrigue a viewer without having a plot I guess this is why a lot of people had issues with Tarantino's 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' It's definitely not gonna be everyones cup of tea, and that's fine. But to say that it was filler, is incorrect. Filler, in my interpretation has nothing to add to a tv show. The original commenter was right, every episode matters.

I'm sick of people saying, "oh, THIS is the moment that Walt became Heisenberg!" THERE IS NO ONE SUCH MOMENT. Otherwise Breaking Bad might as well have been a movie. The genius of the show is that Walt slowly but surely becomes Heisenberg so procedurally that we hardly even notice it. It's only when we're on season 4 or 5 that we look back and say, "wait, how did we get here? How did it come to this?"

Walter is devastated when Elliot looks down on the pack of ramen noodles. Three akward seconds folllow, we see the embarassment tearing on his mimic expression like physical pain, cutting apart the poker face he has maintained so well. He feels defeated, and cannot help to interpret what follow as a forced attempt at saving his face in front of the others. It is utterly ridiculous. Elliot is genuinely touched by the callback to their days as poor doctorate students. I really think this is genuine. And rich people don't have to prove to each other they are rich. It is actually the kind of counter-signaling that is standard in these circles, it would have been a reallly good move had Walt played it with a little more confidence. Elliot has all the money he wants, he couldn't care less how prizey a birthday gift is. He appreciates the thought and originality, but Walter thinks he's faking because he can't let go of the insecurity over his social-economic status. In his mind, Elliot is humiliating him even further. It's heartbreaking to see.

Breaking Bad is the only perfect show. Every other show has "the bad seasons" or has a cringey beginning, or a terrible ending, or it's great in some respects but lacks in others. But BB is perfect in every respect. Brilliant writing, brilliant acting, not too long or too short. Perfect.

"It turns out that Walt is not actually a good man; he's an evil person, hiding inside a good man's skin." I feel like that's kind of missing the point. Breaking Bad does a good job portraying that people aren't born good or evil, and nobody is completely one or the other (Gale was a perfectly kind, nonviolent person, but he also made meth for a drug lord; Walt and Jesse both loved those close to them deeply, despite being killers and drug dealers- Jesse was very loyal and even had a soft spot for children). I don't think we're meant to believe Walt was always a monster- the show shows us how an average person can go down a horrible path and change dramatically, one step at a time. Edit: Vince Gilligan, on Walt- "I would argue he did the most nasty, sadistic thing he had ever done in our third-from-final episode, where he says to Jesse, I watched Jane die. But in that same episode, he also did a couple of the kindest and most selfless things he had ever done. That episode really encompassed the duality of this character. *He could be good, and he could be bad* ."

@cc3

3 жыл бұрын

I don't think gale was a bad person at all. He was pleasant like Gus but had absolutely none of gus' negative qualities. He even stated his reasoning for wanting to cook meth was to give people real and pure meth which would reduce the chances of people dying from consuming a bad batch. Even though what he was doing was illegal, I don't think he was involved for any selfish reasons which is why it makes it all the more brutal that his life was sacrificed to save a drug addicted murder and a selfish, terminally ill mass murderer.

The fact that 7 years later people are still doing new recaps and finding more details/hidden meanings/foreshadowing is just another reason why its the greatest show of all time. It's obvious that the storyline, acting, and cinematography are phenomenal, and people know the writing is great too, but people aren't aware of how deep and complex the writing is. I knew Gray Matter was an important episode for Walt, but this video pointed out multiple things I didn't catch. And this level of writing, the level that we (seemingly) are always finding out more stuff, is why Breaking Bad will stand the test of time. A bunch of great shows will probably arise in the next 50 years. And I bet Breaking Bad will still be near the top of the list.

He was not an "evil man" hiding inside a weak or good man. He was simply human - a man whose frustration, guilt, shame & regret manifested itself in monstrous actions. Cancer was the trigger for the unfurling of this monstrosity because it shattered his belief in a just world. He had done what he was "supposed" to do. He had been good. He had been kind, considerate, altruistic and loving. And his reward was a slow death that he was powerless to avoid while being who he had been. He looked around him for guidance and he saw new templates for who he could be. Eliot had used science and scientists to make money & he'd been rewarded. Hank was crass and inconsiderate (an apparently worse husband) but people celebrated him. Saul & Mike broke the law, but managed to live relatively normal lives. Gus was cultured, civil, respected, intelligent & powerful. Ultimately, Walt was what Walt was because he believed in a just world. He believed that being good would lead to good things - not that being good was just a good in itself. He enjoyed breaking bad, not because he'd secretly been evil all along, but because the power, respect and control it brought came at a point when he felt their absence the most. It escalated because every time he met someone higher up the criminal hierarchy than him, they threatened his escape from a sense of powerless despair. To give up, to back down would be to that pit.

Well said Niall. I'm amazed how many people perceive Walt as being evil while Hank is a good guy apparently and poor, crybaby, Jessie was an innocent victim of Walt. I just saw Walt as a man who kept getting pushed but kept pushing back harder by refusing to be bullied. He didn't like the game but played it better than everyone else. And of course he had an ego like everyone. After years of being an underdog he naturally enjoyed his rise to the top.

Phenomenal breakdown. I've always looked at Walt's turn as when he let's Jane die, until then he had just been putting on a persona, and that's when the persona takes over. However, you hit the nail on the head, and it truly is the deciding moment in Walt's transformation.

@@joecattoggio3180 I honestly disagree now. I don't think it was Walt putting on a persona, at least not in the way I looked at it before. Where before I felt Walt was a genuinely good person who took on this persona to insulate himself from this evil world he was more or less kinda bumbling his way through, until he made the conscious decision to let Jane die, and that is when the persona took over. Now the way I see it, while Walt did decide to become Heisenberg, Heisenberg was more Walt's true self, and from when he decided to be him in this Episode on he was putting on the persona of Walter White; until finally dropping all pretenses by deciding to let Jane die. (At least not when around Hank, Marie, or Jr.)

Anyways, trying to say that there is a definitive point where Walt “became” Heisenberg goes against the point of the show. The show is about a gradual change initiated by Walt’s diagnosis, Walt has a significant turning point in becoming Heisenberg a dozen or so times throughout the series, but each episode pushes him further.

You reminded me of when I first started hating Walt; when he let Jane die. Aras B's judgement of Jane reminded me of how the series warps peoples' sense of morality. Walt was spreading death and misery throughout society whereas Jane was only an addict and maybe a thief.

I'm actually blown away by Vince Gilligan's writing man, hearing him in interviews it sounds like he comes up with stuff as the show goes along like his original intention to kill Jesse or how Mike as a character might not have happened if Bob Odenkirk wasn't unavailable for a scene, yet somehow his characters are rich, deep and so utterly human. It's just insane to me how talented you must have to be to write like this without planning it all out so meticulously and it being so incredibly interwoven and deep.

The series could not have told the same story without the episode Grey Matter.

I think another part that made Walt feel like he never gets to make any of his own choices is when styler asks him if he used the Mastercard, and then said “we never use the Mastercard, remember?”

I think that Walter/Heisenberg is born and dies several times during the span of the show. I totally agree that the real birth or more like breaking through the surface of Heisenberg is in Grey Matter. After this episode you can see how he's trying to keep the two personas separate in the ways how he talks to his family like Walter, calm and understanding, and how a lot of time he's being a dick to Jesse just because he's a part of his criminal life. This goes on till the episode Crawl Space when he yells and laughs maniacally, this is the first death of Walter, after this there is only Heisenberg. When Hank is killed is when Heisenberg dies and through the aftermath Walter is reborn again, a real man who tries to mend how much is possible before finally dying for real.

One moment I always thought was crucial was Walt expressing his frustration after his crimes become known to his wife- I forget the episode and the exact quote, but he says something along the lines of "I just know there's a certain combination of words that I need to find that would make her understand." -Meaning he's no longer really thinking of his family as 'His Family' but another obstacle to overcome, another variable to be solved to get the solution HE wants, in order to rationalize and continue his lifestyle.

I like how he mentions the chances of him running into Jane’s father that night at that bar and that they’re astronomical.

Very aptly described. When you binge watch the series, you tend to miss the gravity of certain sequences, although the subconscious registers it. Your video has identified the watershed moment remarkably.

Junior had the best lines in this episode. From "Why don't you just die already," to "You're a p*ssy," Junior calls out his own dad for giving up while Junior lives with hardship his whole life.

@J Smith You got the abridged version. She had to 'read' the x-ray plates, using techniques that simply didn't exist at the time. She had to create numerical analysis techniques to turn patterns of smudges on x-ray plates into a molecular structure. "We hired you to take pictures of things nobody can see! Not invent some new kind of a camera!" If not for her efforts, insights and techniques, Watson and Crick would NOT have been the names on the Nobel prize, and it would have taken a lot longer. Her work put them years ahead in a field with fierce competition. Several other groups had structural models, but no way to test them. Her job was to 'read the plates', and she went and helped develop the science of x-ray crystallography. Silly woman, getting distracted on the job. Just like the woman who sung "Great gig in the sky " for Pink Floyd was sessions singer, hired to do one bit, no mention on the original album. But she improvised, wrote what she sang on the spot. Listen to that song, sometime. Tell me that her work that day was worth less than $50.00 today. Judge agreed she that she created an original musical work, awarded her rights to the proceeds, and her name on newer editions of the albums. Doesn't matter that she was 'paid for her work', she created something new.

I think one of the most important episodes to me is when Walt realized that crazy right was going to try and kill him and it was a pivotal moment for Walters soul. He had to keep cooking to make money for his family but he had no idea just how wicked the world really is.

9:01 that is not 4 words

Another big reason why Walter said he doesnt want to be rememberd like that before dying is because of his Father! On Flynns birthday (later season/future) where Walter tells him a story about his father and how he remembers him being half dead and scary etc..

Gray/Grey thoughts are not seen with emotions but a realist point of view. Grey brains (psychopaths) don't have emotions soo decisions they make are purely for there own benefit whether its good or bad to the next person. Walt knew that.... Jesse wasn't the only link to his old life but the link to his new life so it makes sense how he dominated relationship as long as he did. He wanted Jesse to see him as Heisenberg first and Mr.White second(truly not at all). That's why the episode ending with "Wanna cook ?"

While I don't think it's the most important episode, "Grilled" was what really got me hooked into the show. Tuco's explosive performance molded perfectly with the episode's rising suspense. Each episode before that, I thought, "Wow, that's CRAZY! They can't just KILL Crazy Eight!" or, "Woah, did Walt really just blow up a building with chemistry?" But this episode, cornering Walt and Jesse into the drug trade, forcing them to go to Mexico and disconnect their entire worlds behind them, ALMOST happened. AND THEN FUCKING HANK COMES IN! It's when I knew that this world is bigger than Tuco. It's when I realized that the series will end with Walt and Hank in a standoff (well, kind of). It's when I realized that this show is goddamn perfect.

@@User18dog Maybe my answer got lost in this clumsy KZread interface. Here is what I wrote... Not because it’s a member of the class 'religious sentiment' but because it references the particular and abhorrent 'original sin' invention which constitutes a key element in a particular system of religious control. Cheers!

The title of this episode could even have a third meaning, which I’m surprised wasn’t caught in the analysis. As you said, his choice isn’t so cut and dry, and he has a lot to consider, and this episode delves deep in the GRAY area of the situation he’s somehow caught himself in. He doesn’t want Elliott’s money, but he wants to pay for his treatment, and he doesn’t know if he can do it through his meth. It truly shows how much the situation has to do with a lot of different things going on, and how he has to sort through the gray area to kind of make his decision. I know I probably interpreted my ideas poorly, but if you get it, and understand it, let me know. If not, I can try to explain it again, and edit the comment.

There is also a fourth meaning for Grey Matter Walter *White* + Elliott *Schwartz* ( means black in German ) = Grey

Cool video, throughly enjoyed watching

Excellent video Ryan. Excellent.

He was Heisenberg all along. Walt was just his temporary persona until the time was right.

That just defeats all the powerful choices Walt took to become Heisenberg. Heisenberg evolves over time as Walt lives his life as a drug lord and makes big decisions. He's a product of all Walt has done.

I'm rewatching BB and I agree with this analysis. No man wants to feel victimized. Especially when Hank says "I will take care of your family".

I wouldnt feel victimized if my brother in law promises me to take care of my family after my inevitable and soon death. I would be thankful. Hank has said quite some thinks that make Walt understably feel emasculated and helpless, but THIS is literally prove for Walt that his family is strong and that he doesnt have to shoulder all that weight alone. He feels victimized not by this sentence, but by his previous life. And his ego is hurt.

Horse Radish That was my favorite line of the video.

I think one aspect that’s particular interesting is, that Walt is an unreliable source about his own past. He is always portraying himself as a victim, which he is also doing when he justifies his criminal and truly awful actions. „He‘s doing it for his family, he had to kill Gus, or he would have killed him, etc.“, when in reality, it’s all his ego. From that we can deduce that he wasn’t as much a victim as he says. My personal take: He was good friends with Elliot and Gretchen, then became intimate with Gretchen. She probably came from a (more) wealthy family and helped with the company. Eventually something went wrong in their relationship, and I‘m sure it had something to do with Walt‘s ego. There are hints that he met Skyler while still seeing Gretchen, maybe Skyler got pregnant and the situation became really uncomfortable for him, so, he left Gretchen, sold his share of the company, so he won’t have to see her again, married Skyler, had the quiet teacher‘s life. Meanwhile, Elliot and Gretchen started seeing each other following the „loss“ of Walt and suddenly, their company made a breakthrough which caused them massive revenue. Fast forward 15 years and it’s 2008 and Walt is frustrated.

It's obvious that even though Walt seems like a good decent guy at the start of the show he has some personal demons that eventually cost him his life. Just the angry way he tells Gretchen to fuck off tells you how bitter he has become over the past 15 years. Walt's ego never lets him see his own flaws so he always blames others for his misfortune. Gretchen and Elliot never screwed him over Grey Matter his own insecurities are the reason why he bailed out but he needs someone to blame so he blames them and not himself. Walt may have seemed like a meek mild mannered guy at the start of the show but he has always had a huge ego. Give someone like that some power and we see what can happen.

I always thought the suggestion was Gretchen fell in love with Elliot while with Walt so went with him. Walt, the quiet and passive type at the time quietly slunk away and let them get on with it, and then boom gray matter exploded and they didn’t call him back.

There was an episode when Walt meets Gretchen at a restaurant and Gretchen mentions how Walt meet with her family and left abruptly after that which left her confused. Walt had feelings of inadequacy and self worth which affected his relationship with Gretchen.

Great breakdown and insight.

Nice!!! Very well done. Very well thought out.

Oh my god, I love this show. It feels so thought through and every scene and line is so precise. People will still make videos like this many years from now, I‘m sure. Great analysis btw, you gained yourself a sub.

Thanks, It was very interesting to follow your discourse!

Great analysis, congratulations!
