I really liked this finale although major parts have been spoiled before which kinda ruined it for me.

Sadly someone posted the picture of + Show Spoiler +

Gustavos "faceoff"

in another forum and I immediately had that picture in mind when watching the scene.. I guess that's pretty bad since it was the highlight of the whole season. Also the theory of Walt finally "Breaking Bad" was posted here before. I knew when they met on the hospital in the end that Walt tried to lie but it was really obvious.

So all in all I should read less and just enjoy the show :D

TERRIBLE season ending, just terr-terr-terrible.

Gus has enough logic to deduct he has been 'led' to the parking lot in the hospital and thus doesn't board his car.

Yet, he neglects that same logic when TIO goes to the DEA after how many years? If he wanted to rat out on him after the death of all his cartel buddies, why wait X or Y time?

In any case, it seemed highly obvious that it could be yet another attempt by walter to get him out of his comfort zone.

And ofc, coming out of the blast, walking like nothing, arranging his tie...and then dropping dead...
that was just bad bad bad. And ofc, nobody follows or trails Walter anywhere anymore, how convenient and believable...not

I just can't fucking believe how they threw an amazing series down the drain with this shitass episode. Whoever wrote it must cut his/her wrists immediately, no questions asked.

This throws away the whole point of Gus being smart. I mean, he didn't evade the DEA for 20 years by being a dumbass.

So now he joins the hall of shame with every other crap villain in tv history, villains who die by slipping off banana peels, villains who tell the heroes their entire plan and then get surprised when they're defeated, etc. etc.

BIG FAIL

/SPIT

You sir are the big fail, really.
You cant compare the situation where Gus was lured to the hospital and where gus was going to kill Tio. Gus showed up personally to tranquility lange because it was a personal affair. Tio killed the beloved partner of gus and thus traumatized him.
Plus, a big calculating logical thinking drug lord dies by making mistakes. No one is save from making a mistake, gus did his "mistake" and died. Period.

This is art. A television story. You won't find life answers in this, it's mere entertainment, maybe intellectual at times, but still entertainment. Gus walking out of the room with half of his face is highly unlikely in real life. But this is not real life.
You demand that the writer for this (in my opinion great) Episode should cut open his wrists. In other words: He should suicide? Come on, is this logical thinking? I don't know how old you are and how bad your life is, but you are not acting mature, which leads me to think that you are pitiful. You're acting like a pretentious wannabe logical-academic being.

even though the scene with gus might have felt trashy, i still think it fitted very well because he was such a disciplined and strong man, always keeping his composure - even when half his head is blown off (like an automatic "gus move").

loved the rest and walt is an asshole! I so hope that jesse will rip his heart out some time in the future

Gus could easily figure out that Walt and Jesse might start working together again, but that's Sherlock Holmes reincarnate if he could deduce Tio and Walt partner up. Gus has no reason to believe Walt even knows Tio and Gus had a past nor where Tio even is at the moment.

And yeah, it is a bit of a stretch of the imagination for half the dude's face missing, but it's television. Suspension of disbelief.

Gus isn't following Walt anymore because he assumed Walt was under DEA custody. Then when Gus figured out that Walt planted a bomb under his car, he figured out that Walt wasn't with the DEA and sent his hitmen over to his house. Unfortunately for Gus, they lost him and Walt got away. Can't follow him if they don't know where he is to begin with.

Take a step back and calm down a little.

Best part was the video of a guy drinking his own piss after betting that Walt didn't poison the kid. So excited for how next season will pan out between Hank, Jesse, Mike, Saul, and Walt.

the best thing about breaking bad is the 'shock' moments...

such as the head riding a turtle and that gus scene.

how would gus predict that hector was working with walt? and gus even sent his goon over there twice to check the place out before going himself.

although, i don't know why gus didn't pay off saul goodman months ago... that's the only 'plot hole' for me.

I think I have to lump myself in with the crowd that is slightly disappointed with this episode.

I listen to a lot of interviews and podcasts regarding the show, and pretty much have tapped into how they think and set up their plot twists. It didn't take me long to just assume Walt was responsible for the poisoning; that Tio would be the bomb delivery device, etc.

It's a great show, but I think I have to stop thinking about it and start enjoying it.

He is still under the delusion that he is doing the right thing. He doesn't do evil things too people he believes doesn't deserve it.

Which would explain why he poisoned brock. That kid was a fucking dick.

...

Clearly walt should of done something, the whole self preservation thing walts been doing...yeah...should of gun butted her in the face and threatened her. Bad scene.
