Added DiffLines:

* MachoMasochism: Tuco putting out a cigarette on his tongue. It wasn't in the script; Raymond Cruz just ''did it'' during filming. Bryan Cranston is genuinely shocked.

Added DiffLines:

* LetMeGetThisStraight: Tuco says as much, dumbfounded by Walt's demands- fifty grand for the pound of meth Tuco stole and Jesse's medical bills- and seemingly just bringing him more meth in exchange. As he learns quickly, it wasn't meth.

->''"No matter what happens, no more bloodshed. No more violence."''

Added DiffLines:

* EvilFeelsGood: Walt experiences quite the adrenaline rush after blowing up Tuco's hideout.


* BaldOfAwesome: The first time we see Walt without his hair, he's storming out of Tuco's blazing office with the deal money in hand. Said office is burning because Walt set off a mercury bomb partly to get Tuco to take him and Jesse seriously, and partly in revenge for Jesse's beating, counting it as this...
* BaldOfEvil: ...''and'' this, as the attack and deal with Tuco is another step in the dark direction Walt's life is taking. This episode starts his iconic bald look for the rest of the series.

Hank meanwhile follows the gas mask lead back to the high school, where he shows his findings to Walt. Walt then shows him around the chemical equipment room, where Hank discovers that several items are missing. Fortunately for Walt, Hank's main suspect is a school janitor, Hugo Archuleta. But when Walt joins him for a poker game, he informs Walt that all he was able to pin on Hugo was carrying a small amount of marijuana, and he was very likely not the one who stole the equipment.

Tuco, while loving the hell out of Walt and Jesse's product, is very opposed to paying the $35,000 Jesse demands up front. This outrages Jesse, which in turn angers Tuco, and Jesse is beaten within an inch of his life.

Walt finds out that selling meth "one 'teenth at a time" is not fast enough to pay for his treatment on time. As per their agreement, he more-or-less orders a very reluctant Jesse to see if he can find a big time distributor to work with. Jesse manages through one of his friends, Skinny Pete, to get an audience with Tuco, a local gang leader who sits on the bulk of the drug market in South Valley.

Added DiffLines:

* HighFiveLeftHanging: Skinny Pete clearly overstated how "tight" things were between him and Tuco, as his offer of a fist bump over the drug lord's desk is met with disdain.


* NiceToTheWaiter: Walt for is part is grateful for Hugo's kindness and is upset by Hugo's getting arrested and fired because of him (though obviously not enough to come clean himself).

* HiredToHuntYourself: Hank consults Walt on who might have stolen the equipment from his Chemistry lab. It was Walt.

* IncomingHam: Tuco at first comes off as cold as intimidating, but once he takes a hit from the meth Jesse gives him, his true character in all of its loud, unpredictable, and ''insane'' glory breaks out.
