The episode was stupid. Hank and his partner were right out in the open when the shooting started. There were shotguns and 1000 rounds fired and noone was hit. The episode was a cartoon.

i thought that was the worst episode of the entire show. walt's the brilliant mastermind who thinks of everything up intil now and in one show he becomes the retard who confesses on the cell phone to the guy
who hates him, wants to get him and is MIA, most likely with the cops,
in one show? with that nonsense, my guess is this shows ends like
dallas where it's all a dream or something and JR never got shot.
Hiding behind a car against a 5.56 round.

I hate the cliffhangers in each episode this season. They're not needed. We're already gonna watch next week.
And the "sneak peak at next weeks episode" are always misleading, to the point that you shouldn't even bother watching them.
The ending tonight coulda been a legendary scene if Hank got shot down seconds after talking to his wife with good news..Instead it made everyone laugh at how fake it was.

I also didn't care for the ending. They need to stop pussying around and just kill some long time charters off already.
On a side note, has anyone else noticed the insane amount of product placements in this season? Every time they are in the the car wash all you see is 5 Hour Energy or a big Coca Cola machine. It's so distracting.

Never in the history of TV has a show fallen so fast. I don't understand how this can be the same group of writers from the first 4 seasons.

Good call. For some reason I thought Lydia would be involved with Todd and Co screwing things up, but no Lydia.
Really not sure what some of you are expecting from the show to be honest, so far I have enjoyed the season and this episode.

Remember how Todd nailed the kid on the dirtbike when they hijacked the chemicals off the train. Todd was shooting the same gun and emptyed it and couldn't hit Hank,a larger target at a closer distance.
This cliff-hanger shootout is really cornball but you know that Walt survives and if he is to be "pulled from the jaws of defeat" that these writers seem to think is dramatic,then this arrest has to be reversed and that means all DEA have to be neutralized. I could see this is where Hank is dealt with finally,but probablly not Jesse.Remember, this shootout begins the final 3 episodes starting next Sunday.
Maybe Sol could answer this but when Hank arrests Walt in the middle of the desert and reads his rights/handcuffs him,what is the charge? The only thing they even expect to find there is a barrel of cash. Jesse's testimony + cash = case ,but no cash no case?

Exactly.
Wait, he was speeding and driving recklessly through the desert? No? ... Ok how 'bout talking on a cell phone while driving?

Not only has this season been absolutely phenomenal but there are still 2 more episodes with Walt on the run.
EVERY SINGLE episode of this season has been brilliant.
I am not sure why I'm reading such disappointment, cynicism and whining...
The writers of this show have masterfully designed each episode of this season!!!

that was a great episode but these characters were brilliantly built up over 5 seasons yet they have them fading in an instant. it's wek and contrived. in the last episode, walt inexplicably confesses over the phone to the guy who's gone MIA and in all likelihood is dealing with the police. now, skyler just caves based on the word of her sister who she's at odds with without even bothering to confirm with a phone call that walt is actually arrested.
these are contrived, shortcuts in the writing and storyline. shortcuts to wrap this thing up.

how quickly people forget Skylar's arc in this series....shes been tortured by this man for at least the last 3 seasons....flaunted an affair in his face, told him she was scared to death of him and openly wished that his cancer tear him to shreds on multiple occasions....is it really so unbelivable that after her sister in law confronts her the way she did she had enough? Is it really??
tbh I always found her recent loyalty to him more of reach than turning on him....oh but the power

it is to me. i get that she would have a tough time dealing with this scenartio but in 5 years what's she's never been is stupid adn lazy and to suggest she goes from 100% on board and wanting to kill pinkman and never telling her disabled son to 180 degrees in reverse based on one statement from her sister who now hates her without taking one step to even try and confirm that walt was actually arrested, such as, for example, a quick call, is a lazy, convenient and uncharacteristic way to advance the storyline.
skylar has been a lot of things over 5 years but never lazy and stupid but that's what they made her at a very critical point in an instant.

my point was her decision wasn't in an instant..just this season alone she was confronted by her own brother one on one...then Hank and the sister in law while they threatened to take their kids...then she was forced to frame her own brother...this was a cumulative thing going back a long way IMO....but I guess I can agree they could have thrown in an attempt to call Walt quickly

The very last scene of episode 14, Walt and his barrel get picked up to start a new life and the van pulls away. All we see is a dog crosses the street. All I could think was SergioLeone's The Good the Bad and the Ugly. We already had our 3-way Mexican showdown but do Tuco and Blondie reunite in crime? That would be Walt and Jesse get back cooking.I wouldn't doubt that the writers sample Leone and the only thing missing is the score by Marricone.After Hank gets shot in the first 5 minutes of e14 the rest is setting up the perimeters of thefinale. Hank doesn't have any family and Jesse dosen't have any choices.All the rest of the characters are "mushrooms" live or die, so what.
