![]() Neither Skyler nor Junior believe him, although Skyler waits until they're alone to confront him on what really happened. Blatant Lies: Walt's attempt at explaining away the gasoline-soaked carpets with having suffered a "pump malfunction" at the gas station.Bait-and-Switch: The tough-looking bald guy at the mall whom Jesse fears is there to kill him on Walt's orders turns out to be just a random guy waiting for his daughter.Walt, finally starting to realize he would never be able to reason with Jesse, calls Todd, informing him that he may have "another job" for his uncle. Believing him to be a hitman Walt hired (and not realizing he was just a civilian waiting to pick up his daughter), Jesse backs out, infuriating Hank, but not before calling Walt from a pay phone and promising to hit him where he "really" lived. Jesse, however, sees an intimidating looking man. Jesse sees Walt sitting alone at the plaza, an open and public space that should be a safe place to meet. Little does Jesse know, Hank isn't as concerned about his safety as he seems: if Walt really does intend to silence him, it would still be the proof he needed to arrest him. This convinces Jesse to set out to meet with Walt. ![]() Hank assures Jesse, however, that based on everything he told him, Walt has no intention of hurting him. Jesse is worried that Walt is planning to kill him, describing him to Hank as "the devil" and always one step ahead. Hank has Jesse equipped with a wire, in the hopes that he can get Walt to say something incriminating. Hank reveals to Jesse the voice message Walt left on his phone, asking him to meet at a plaza at noon. If they were going to go after Walt, they would need definitive proof. ![]() While Hank and Gomez believe Jesse, it's still ultimately the word of a drug addict with a record against a man who, to the general public, was a mild-mannered family man. ![]() He details everything to the two, from his run-in with two dealers working under Gus to the death of Drew Sharp. The following morning, Jesse, now sober and thinking clearly, joins Hank and Gomez to record a confession. He has Jesse's cellphone, which Walt calls at one point, asking for a meet.Īs Walt continues to try to contact Jesse, he also reassures Junior, stressing out from the turmoil his home life had been thrown into throughout the year that his father fought cancer, that he would be okay. Hank brings Jesse back to his house rather than arresting him, due to Walt's prison connections and history of killing witnesses. The two drive away shortly before Walt arrives. Jesse, high and practically exploding with anger, is determined to get revenge on Walt, but Hank manages to convince him to stand down and claims that they can work together to bring down Heisenberg. Walt was right about Jesse changing his mind, but doesn't realize why: while Jesse was dumping gasoline through Walt's house and preparing to burn it, Hank arrived to stop him at gunpoint. Walt tries to assure Skyler that Jesse had changed his mind and could be reasoned with, but is stunned into silence when Skyler suggests killing Jesse as a permanent solution to this particular problem. Skyler is equally shocked and vindicated: she had warned Walt time and again that the nature of his illegal enterprise would bring danger upon their family. Walt finally admits that Jesse had come to burn the house down. When Walt returns to his hotel room, he tries to tell Skyler he went to get some ice, but she saw his conversation with Saul. Saul suggests putting him out of his misery like Old Yeller, but Walt vehemently dismisses the idea and warns Saul against any such ideation. With Junior worried that his father suffered another blackout, not unlike the "fugue state" from when he was kidnapped by Tuco, Walt suggests staying at a hotel for the time being.Īt the hotel, Walt meets with Saul to discuss how to deal with Jesse. To prevent his family from realizing how close they were to having their home razed, Walt refuses to let his locks be changed, and soaks himself in gasoline as part of a story about how he accidentally got splashed by a faulty gas pump, thus accounting for what odor the cleaning company couldn't remove. Walt has a cleaning company come to clean the gasoline, and calls Huell over to retrieve Saul's car. Saul's car, which Jesse commandeered, is in the driveway with some meth inside and he finds his house's carpet soaked in gasoline, but no sign of Jesse. This is a person.Īfter hearing from Saul how Jesse found out about the ricin cigarette and Brock, Walt makes a beeline back to his home. Walt: We all need to just take a deep breath and calm down, because Jesse isn't just some- some- some rabid dog.
