History Recap / BreakingBadS2E6Peekaboo

* AbusiveParents: Spooge and his girlfriend leave their baby son all alone in the house and neglect feeding, bathing or nursing him while outside they go out looting [=ATMs=] or searching for more drugs (preferably cocaine and heroin).

* DirtyCoward: Spooge's girlfriend shamelessly uses her [[SarcasmMode precious baby boy]] as a shield between her and Jesse during the tense hold-up. Whether or not she is the baby boy's biological mother is yet to be confirmed though.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Spooge's wife crushes his head with the ATM for repeatedly calling her a 'skank.' To be fair, she was so strung out on drugs that she probably didn't even realize what she was doing.
* TheDogBitesBack: Spooge constantly insults his wife nastily, driving her insane to no end. Until the end of the episode, when he once again calls her a “skank”. She, having been high on drugs, can’t take it anymore, and tips over an ATM machine that was above Spooge’s head, squishing his head and killing him.

* NoNameGiven: Spooge's girlfriend and son are unnamed.

* PetTheDog: Jesse calls the cops in the hopes they'd bring the neglected child to social services where they could have a better life.

* UnreliableVoiceover: Spooge claims that the theft of the ATM went "smooth as silk" and was "a victimless crime". As he says this, the crime scene is shown, where the clerk lies dead in a pool of blood, with a stab-wound to the chest.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Spooge's son doesn't react at all to Jesse breaking into the house. Though he could be too hungry and malnourished to care.

When he enters Spooge's house, he finds the interior a complete mess, but there is no sign of Spooge or his girlfriend. He does find a young redheaded boy, filthy and dressed in dirty, ragged clothes, watching an infomercial on the TV (for lack of any other channels). Jesse decides to wait in the house with the young boy until Spooge and his girlfriend returns...

* BerserkButton: Spooge really shouldn't have called his girlfriend a skank so much.

-->'''Gretchen''': Let me just get this straight: Elliott and I offered to pay for your treatment, no strings attached – an offer which still stands by the way – and you turn us down out of pride, whatever. And then you tell your wife that in fact we are paying for your treatment. Without our knowledge, against our will, you involve us in your lie, and you sit here and tell me that that is none of my business?
-->''[long pause]''
-->'''Walter''': Yeah. That's pretty much the size of it.

--->'''Spooge's girl''': AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH! AAAAAAAAAAA-\\

'''Spooge's girl''': AAA-\\

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Spooge got his head smashed by an ATM machine.

* EvilVersusEvil: Spooge and his girlfriend are more concerned with fighting amongst themselves than the fact a stranger broke into the house and is demanding them money they've stolen at gunpoint.

* MissingStepsPlan: Spooge and his girlfriend decide to steal an [=ATM=] and empty out all its cash so they can buy more drugs. And just ''how'' were they going to empty the cash, they didn't even think of that. Only when Jesse arrives and holds them at gunpoint do they get serious about emptying it, so Spooge resorts to breaking it open with a sledgehammer.

** During a lesson on carbon, Walt recounts the story of the man who invented synthetic diamonds, H. Tracy Hall, and how he was rewarded for his breakthrough invention with a ten-dollar savings bond. Walt, similarly, made several breakthroughs for Grey Matters, but had sold his share of the company for pennies on the dollar after breaking up with Gretchen, as he would tell Jesse late in the final season.

** Walt has a minor one when he sees Gretchen stopped by his house, potentially putting his cover story about her and Elliot footing his medical bills in jeopardy.
