* AlasPoorVillain: None of the guys killed in lockup were 'good' guys – all of them willingly partook in a meth operation, and at least one (Dennis) was willing to roll on others, but it's pretty tough to see the utterly 'brutal' end they meet, especially when people like Walt and Lydia – with higher body counts and much more power within the operation – walk free.

Added DiffLines:

** Many have noted Walt's tendency to adopt food-related particularities of the people he kills. When sharing a scotch with Hank, Hank asks him, "Rocks, right?" as opposed to Hank's preference of a neat scotch. [[spoiler:In a few episodes, Hank will die, although not directly at Walt's hands. In the penultimate episode, Walt orders his scotch neat, indicating that although he did not kill Hank himself, he feels responsible for his death.]]


Added DiffLines:

* NoSocialSkills: Your depressed brother-in-law is investigating the brutal murder of 10 people in an ongoing investigation against one of the biggest drug lords in the Southwest. He tells a story about his old teenage job and relates it back to the "monsters" he is chasing. He is utterly despondent and looking for some sort of reassurance. Your response? "I used to love to go camping." Sure.

[[spoiler:Spiking her tea with ricin is exactly how he kills her later on.]]
** Walt's regular MRI checkup [[spoiler:will reveal that his cancer has returned.]]
