So, I might be remembering this incorrectly, but they described the kids symptoms as "like a cold." I guess that might be compatible with inhalation, but really none of these quite fit. I don't think Walt killing him makes any sense. Gus doing it might make some sense, but then he would be going out of his way to get the ricin, which he may or may not even know about. The kid just randomaly getting seriously sick is too coincidental. I'm thinking it turns out not to be ricin at all, and then hopefully a more legit storyline can be made. | ||

I may just be crazy after all, but it feels like that would just be poor writing, the timing of him getting seriously sick like that and the smoke missing that day, obviously someone can just get sick out of nowhere, but in the quality of this show it would just seem like a pretty cheap plot device. I don't know who did what, but something was done to the boy to get him sick, i, personally, just couldn't see it being natural and being anything but anti-climactic and reflecting badly on the writers. | ||

When Walt spins the gun the third time it points away from him, specifically at that white plant. It seems to be White Monkshood (Aconitum), which is toxic. "Marked symptoms may appear almost immediately, usually not later than one hour, and "with large doses death is almost instantaneous." Death usually occurs within 2 to 6 hours in fatal poisoning (20 to 40 mL of tincture may prove fatal).[13] The initial signs are gastrointestinal including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. There is followed by a sensation of burning, tingling, and numbness in the mouth and face, and of burning in the abdomen. In severe poisonings pronounced motor weakness occurs and cutaneous sensations of tingling and numbness spread to the limbs. Cardiovascular features include hypotension, bradycardia, sinus tachycardia, and ventricular arrhythmias. Other features may include sweating, dizziness, difficulty in breathing, headache, and confusion. The main causes of death are ventricular arrhythmias and asystole, paralysis of the heart or of the respiratory center.[14][13] The only post-mortem signs are those of asphyxia." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aconitum#Toxicology The bolded part sounds like initial flu symptoms. That being said, if he poisons Brock with the plant, why is the Ricin Cig missing? | ||

A cold is fever, running noise, coughing, sore throat. Hell being that vague that's also the symptoms of inhaling anthrax | ||
