Breaking Bad follows protagonist Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a chemistry teacher who lives in New Mexico with his wife (Anna Gunn) and teenage son (RJ Mitte) who has cerebral palsy. White is diagnosed with Stage III cancer and given a prognosis of two years left to live. With a new sense of fearlessness based on his medical prognosis, and a desire to secure his family's financial security, White chooses to enter a dangerous world of drugs and crime and ascends to power in the world. The series explores how a fatal diagnosis such as White's releases a typical man from the daily concerns and constraints of normal society and follows his transformation from mild family man to a kingpin of the drug trade.

I like how Gus was so insulted when Walt suggested they were alike that he couldn't resist breaking character to deny it
Fr
Only proves that they are alike because both of them represent the sin of pride
And Walt was testing Gus's pride
@@heisenburger1_o. If Gus is a sin it’s wrath. He dedicated 20+ years to a carefully planned and drawn out revenge. Walt is reckless and unpredictable, Gus is cunning and cautious. Gus was offended by Walt comparing himself to him because Walt is so much less careful.
@@connorcriss Gus had a lot of time, Walter's dying.
I like how gus says ' I have your numbers' confirming to walt that he has both of his numbers
Brilliant writing, the writers are geniuses!
I always took that as having both Walt and Jesse's numbers
I figured it was just a way of saying "I already have your contact information. If I want to reach you, I will".
Ain’t it both numbers as in both his phones?
@@caesar8364 You're actually dum-
I love Gus's transformation from friendly manager interacting with a customer to deadly serious drug kingpin dressing down a potential partner. Kudos to Giancarlo.
His performance on this show really is a master class in acting. I hope they show this in acting schools.
What I like tho is that even when he dropped the friendly manager facade he still kept a very civilized and cultivated conversation with Walt, besides from scolding him for comparing the two of them as alike. He still kinda seemed likeable even as a drug lord. That was before we could get to know him better.
That's gus whole character on the outside he's a polite restaurant owner but behind closed doors he's a cold sinister drug lord
Not just a drug kingpin.
His performance heavily suggests that he used to be..... Ex Military personnel or something like a secret police. Which really fits his character quite well. A General under Pinochet regime.
@@unknownbenefactor8029 what makes you think that. I did notice he has some military mannerisms such as straight posture and subconscious adjusting uniform even in the moments before death
I just love how Walter offers to supply Gus with the very best fried chicken seasoning on the market. And Walter just happens to have 38 pounds of this impeccable seasoning on hand.
What can you say, the man is a chef after all!
Let him cook!
What? It's just "The chicken Bros" batter! Its only driven around by guys with machine guns.
My man can cook
This was a side deal for Gus. He didn't have his lab up and running yet. Some things in this universe aren't entirely realistic but nothing that cannot be explained away or disregarded for the amazing story unfolding.
Why are they whispering over a new fried chicken formula?
how does a 1 month old comment made by a person with a million sub that also made a comment similar to bravo vince jokes have hardly any likes and zero replies?
@@chocolateblocks It's the (((way))).
@@chocolateblocksbecauz nobod care 🤦
still though, usually verified comments get to the top and the fact that the comment isn't even stupid its just weird lol@@Mangdup.
All jokes aside, Gus would fit perfectly into GTA. Maybe as like a contact mission to help smuggle product.
This is what makes Gus Fring the best villain on television, kind, polite, disciplined, but cold and calculating, intimidating and terrifying.
ok but lalo
Hot take: If Breaking Bad was filmed so we saw everything from Gus's perspective instead of Walter's, Gus would be seen as a far better person than Walt.
I'm Team Lalo all the way, but even I know Gus was the better villain. Lalo's smiling ain't fooling anybody, cuz you know a straight killer is now in the room. But Gus? You will never see this Assistant District Manager, C.P.A coming at you!!
Gus wasn’t the villain Walter white was.
Gus Fring and Lalo. They both are the best.
Gus saying "you can never trust an addict" is so true and he knows it not only cause he deals with them but he knows his own product and knows what it does to people
He was somewhat wrong about Jesse though, he was most definitely right about Walter, however.
@@gaminacthemaniac6444 Jesse ultimately betrays Walter to the police. Also, many times throughout the show, Jesse was a burden just as much as any help he provided.
Yes, great quote
Does it also means Tuco?
Jesse was the worst character in the show. Annoying, immature, weak, incompetent, undisciplined. He was that annoying stoner friend from high school.
1:30 Beautiful moment, that's when Gus drops the act and the real person comes out. It's like a switch that he flips and his entire persona changes: his voice, his body language, his stare. Fantastic acting by Esposito.
So true. I’ve never seen him give a shoddy performance.
You beat me to it. I was about to type basically the same comment with the same time stamp. The way Gus' demeanor does a 180 in quite literally the blink of an eye. I wonder how many takes they needed to get this shot exactly right.
And it happened right after Walter said they’re alike. Gus disagreed and hated that statement. I believe that’s when Walter realised just how big and fragile Gus’s ego was and used it against him at the end.
😀😄🤨😐
@@tech83studio38 perfectly put 👍🏽
What I would give to watch this show in it’s entirety for the first time again
same here
Maybe this summer AMC will have a marathon.
Netflix has it and PlutoTV streams several episodes in a row in order most evenings for free
Have Walter give you drug-induced amnesia and then the shows will be like you watch them the first time. 🤣🤣
You know, knowing the plot doesn't lessen how good BB and BCS are.
What makes these shows one of the greatest of all time is because of the masterful Directing, impeccable Writing and Dialogue, incredible Characters and the Performances/Portrayals by the Actors. And unlike the plot, you can't spoil these elements.
2:26 "That is not the only factor"
Gus was 100% correct
You don't say. It's obvious.
99.1
Yeah true
Even in other professions sometimes being best is not enough
@@rahulverma8774true, look at the number of talented celebrities and artists who are HORRIBLE people to work with. Just like Walt
The only factor was money walt tricked gus into getting in cause of that
Getting involved with Walt really blew up in his face.
Lol!
😅
Da dum tss
I see what ya did there.
Pardon the pun! 😂
1:30 Walter: "I believe we're alike in that way."
Gus: 😒
Smart name 👍🏻
@@DDniceNeasy thanks, it's a pun. I love puns.
I am an Arab and i believe we are alike in that way 😁.
The way gus looks over his shoulder like " are we really doing this here in front of my employees and civilians?" Always cracks me up
He literally only meets with people this way. He was suppose to do the same thing with both Walt and Jesse in the middle of the day, full house, the day before.
I sometimes imagine if I were Walt in that situation I would say "I was waiting yesterday for a job interview to become a supplier of a chemical product", this way if Gus is really the person I'm looking for he will get what I mean and if he's not I'm not saying anything that's outside the law.
I thought he was looking at the clock to see when 5 minutes would elapse.
he was looking to see if someone was hearing. you can see in the back someone walks by. then he keeps the act.
I agree. Gus would have not said a word if he thought there conversation wasn't private. He waited for his only employee to clear the floor, and even then the conversation only got hazardous on Walters part. If Walter had been a bit more cautious himself I think it would of garnered more respect and set a mildly different tone for their relationship.@@wartortle577
My favorite thing about the way Gus is written, is how he was always willing to let go of his pride and ego in order to accomplish a greater goal. He smiled at Hector, he apologized to Lalo, he personally cleaned his own restaurant, he pushed through years of working BELOW his mortal enemies just to get close enough to wipe them all out. Especially after BCS, Walter is such a small, small man in my eyes...
Aside from his personal vendetta against the Salamancas, Gus's motivations are all about power and control. He absolutely had a lot of pride and ambition. He is just more self-contained. He thinks before he moves, contrary to Walt, who improvises every step
It was ego that was his downfall. He couldn't just let Hector die he wanted him to suffer. And he was too confident he could pull it off, it completely destroyed everything he worked for.
There's another character who's ego and pride are his downfall, Walter
@@Chiz1992 Actually his revenge for Hector was pretty much perfectly executed and he accomplished everything he set out to do in regards to Hector. He just shouldn't have gone to execute Hector for supposedly ratting, he got baited because of his hatred for the man.
@@SaturnineXTS I imagine getting blown up wasn't exactly part of his plan
I think Walter being a small, small man was kind of the point of Breaking Bad. His pride and ego were so swollen that he couldn't bear to be anyone other than the big man, no matter the circumstance. He was quite pathetic.
the moment Gus switches out of Chicken Man into Drug Kingpin is so chilling. Definitely one of the best characters I've ever seen in tv history.
What the hell are you doing here?
@@the_j_machine2254lmao idk why y’all treat big content creators and celebrities like they aren’t human like the rest of us
@@Cutthroat__ this dude hangs out FTX shillers.
My mom always did after guests left the house. Not that impressive.
This one scene does a pretty good job showing us how gus is different from other villains and made if one of the best villains ever
He was the best and most intimidating antagonist the series ever had.
Lalo is way better
@@imma5761 I agree. Even tho I love gus, lalo is just the better villain overall
Honestly in some ways I WANTED Gus to win against Walter. But Gus had his weak spots and Heisenberg figured them out. I just wished Walter could work it out with Jesse or let him go to die when he wanted to kill two of Gus's men, but his pride and ego destroyed both of them, and Gus underestimated Heisenberg.
@@imma5761 As a villian sure, Lalo is better... But as an an actual antagonist in terms of feeling of adversity as well the dynamic to the protagonist that he serves, Gus is personally unmatched. But Lalo is still my personal favorite to watch on screen.
0:15 Can we take a moment to appreciate that their are no labels on the soda fountain but Gus pulls it off like a champ...
He is the manager and owner, he should know.
@@mojewjewjew4420 but doesnt need to. I worked in cinema and main director didnt know how to do most of the bar tasks.
@@jakubmalinowski1474 that guy isnt Gus.
@@jakubmalinowski1474 they are not up to “Pollos Standards”
Hahahahaha
2:45
My parents trying to bring guests over when they know I’m home.
Hahaa
This is exactly what my mom usually tells me. Lucky me she's most of the times right.
The way Gus Fring voice changes when he says, " I don't think we are alike at all", is chilling, to say the least.
1:50 I love how Walter is shocked to see the real Fring for the first time.
I never get tired of this scene; Giancarlo just oozes talent in a few short minutes on camera.
He oozes white stuff on your face off camera.
@@phodacbitchyou know all about that white stuff, don't you? Your favorite meal?
@@phodacbitch don't threaten us with a good time!
Giancarlo's delivery is SO good. When he drops the facade... it's haunting.
Gus’s only mistake was doing business with Walter white
He underestimated the loyalty that Walt and Jesse shared.
Seriously gus should have trusted his instincts on that one from the start
0:34 The way Gus pulls out the chair symbolises he's having a seat. Vince is truly a genius
These cornball jokes need to stop
We understand, you are funny
IGCSE Literature?
Yeah, I hated it too.
@@shawerful5209very funny 😂😂😂
Bravo Vince
Can't believe such an integral moment like this is in the same exact episode as the happy birthday scene
That was pure cringe.
@@seanconnolly5968 And it was all on Walter for becoming a druglord.
@@concept5631 Nah, someone else's actions doesn't make you become that cringe-inducing. You either have it in you, or you don't.
@@pro-socialsociopath769 You right. He was cringe all along.
I love how at 0:04 Gustavo the drug lord notices Walt walking up without looking up and immediately turns on the friendly civilian act. 😂
When Gus says "You can never trust a drug addict," there might not have been a greater foreshadowing statement in the history of television.
It's classic and so true
but isnt jesse one of if not the most trustworthy and loyal character on the show?
@@explained1305 Why do people think that? It's been a few years but I remember at least he was willing to trade Walt for Jane (and they were blackmailing him), after he got beat up by Hank he threatened him again in the hospital, and then later he did end up going to the police for real.
Jesse only snitched Walt because he poisoned that boy
@@guilhermedinizdosreisgomes5030 so he snitched
I love how Gus breathes air here. It shows that he’s a human that requires oxygen. Brilliant acting.
lmao
😂😂
Bravo Vince!
i heard he didn't even pretend to breathe, he breathed for real for the role, what a dedicated pro!
brilliant detail. i noticed the way he speaks with his mouth too, making him more human
What I love about how both BB and BCS introduce Gus is that they don’t draw attention to him before you know who he is or have any reason to suspect he’s anything more than a pleasant, upbeat fast food manager.
Whichever version you see first is going to give you no reason to suspect that _THIS_ is the guy they’ve been building up to all this time and you’ll leave the scene with next to no reason to think he’s anything more than what he appears.
But as soon as you’ve seen one show, you know who he is so the illusion is ruined the second time around. As soon as you clock him, you’re drawn to him as you know exactly how powerful and threatening he really is.
It’s a great parallel of both shows that gives some real continuity from a meta perspective as well as allowing BCS first viewers to get that sensation without even knowing they’ve missed out on something in the first place.
Hope nobody actually watched BCS first. Although I guess it could make some scenes feel more intense not knowing most of the character's plot armor.
It’s funny how gus says he and Walt are not alike and that Walt has poor judgement, only for him then to make the biggest judgement mistake he ever makes
Gus' two biggest judgment mistakes were: underestimating the loyalty that Walt and Jesse shared, and letting his desire to kill Hector personally make him expose himself to mortal danger.
@@channel5980Tyrus didn't check under Hector's wheelchair. If he did, Gus would've still had been in the game.
@@Whoyouwishyouwere Victor also made poor judgement by getting himself seen. Both his and Gus's mistakes had deadly consequences.
@@Whoyouwishyouweregus underestimated the cartel, they were protecting him allowing him to make moves. Everything went downhill when they were gone. Allowing a rag tag team of rednecks to take over the scene 🤣
The fact that Gus was checking to see if his employee was within earshot of their conversation instantly suggests that he is exactly the person Walter is looking for.
1:28 His change in face expression is stunning....
2:15 is the real turning point of this scene(and the whole partnership) to me - Fring has been effortlessly playing defense against Walt's risky offering this whole time, but for once, he's not just politely indulging him here - we can see the 99% Pure genuinely excites him and he darkly, reluctantly wants in on it too.
This scene is so superbly executed and acted, it's crazy. Look at the subtle change in expression by Gus when he is insulted.
Hell I just realized the subtle changes in Walt's face and him leaning back(1:47) when he realizes Gus is who he thought he was. Amazing acting for both!
@@eldonb5131 Yes nobody talks about Walter's subtle reaction to being right about the real personality and how it leaves him in both awe and potentially fear.
Gus meant it when he said "you can never trust a drug addict". You realise it was genuine advice after you learn his backstory.
Who is he referring to? Don Eladio?
Their facial expressions and demeanor is that of people that have lived the ups and downs of life, that have handled the pressure and the difficulties through many painful experiences. The perspective one gets watching this show as a teen or young adult and later in life when reaching the 30s is totally different, it makes you appreciate every little detail of the acting much more.
Couldn't say better myself. Thx for your comment 🙏
The acting in this is absolutely incredible, especially with Gus. Giancarlo did an amazing job. The thing that always struck me was the transition of his character, he went from Gus the pollos hermanos manager to Gus the drug kingpin in a matter of seconds but did it sooo calmly.
Brilliant actor
I love Jesse trust level came from “You can never trust a drug addict” to betting all faith he can secure you out of a cartel meeting place alive.
Jesse really had the most fleshed out and entertaining character development in the series.
The way gus turn into business mode is insane.
1:08 i love how even when he isnt about to break his act, he still checks around to see if anyone is watching
Taht change on his tone and face 01:43. Just awesome.
What I like most about this is that despite what Gus predicted, Jesse was far from the reason his operation failed, it was ALL Walt
Well, I think you watched a different TV show.
@@TheLudwigWan nah, jesse turned out to be loyal and trustworthy. he was just more loyal to walt in the end.
It was all Gus
Nah it started with Jesse tbh
No. Gus was incautious with his decisions, Jesse was also reckless. Its actually Walt that was professional in the beginning.
2:54....the rightest question ever asked
Gus wanted to ensure Walter was up to Los Pollos Standards
This “Gus Fring” dude seems nice, hopefully he doesn’t cut someone’s throat with a Boxcutter sometime soon
Hopefully he doesn't get blown up in a nursing home either!
I hope he doesn't shout "AUGGH" for any reason.
Hopefully, he won't lose half his head 👌🏻
Hopefully he doesn’t deliberately poison a maniacal drug lord
You can never trust a drug addict.
This is my favorite scene of the whole series. Two masters of their illegal trades squaring off against one another.
Many miss this the first time around, but Gus actually did make contact with them. He asked them how they enjoyed their food and that's how he vibed them.
Gus should have followed his instincts and avoided dealing with these two regardless of Walt’s product…… he planted the seeds for his own demise in this meeting.
Walt's product is impeccable. Gus couldn't help it being such a fine specimen that he is.
Stupid comment, because then the series wouldn’t have become what it did. This was an entertainment show with an incredible storyline , it’s a great thing that “carson111000” from UA-cam didn’t write the script 😂
Character is only as smart as the plot demands it to be
I love this mysterious aura that surrounds Gus Fring from the start
Which imo is why watching BCS first for a newcomer is not a good idea....release timing is best, BB then BCS....except possibly for El Camino, never seen it but don't really know)
My favorite part of this scene is the distinct reaction to Walter’s second question on “who I meant to meet”.
‘I don’t think we are alike’
Brilliant when he says “diet coke please”, implying that the drink he was consuming was in fact Diet Coke. In the next part, Gus is filling the cup with what is presumably coke of the diet variety
Vravo Vince!
Lol great comment, dislike all these losers commenting like they're analysts/psychologists.
The liquid coming out of the fountain nozzle looked green to me. Mountain Dew would be my guess.
Wow such a good show so deep
I prefer Coke Zero
Gus (Season 2): You can never trust a drug addict.
Gus (Season 4): sTaY aWaY fRoM p1nKmAn!
You can see how angry Gus got when Walt suggested that they are alike at 1:30. It's also when he decided to drop the act.
His ego got the best of him
He was like "oh no he didn't just say that" lol
Ironically, Gus proved him correct by taking offense. And Gus' downfall was not realizing just how alike they were, and the depths they both sink to when things get personal.
Damn giancarlo esposito is an insane actor
man.. this guy stood in front of hisenberg and homelander and remained alive
This is some serious writing. So many things going on all at once, delivered with only few lines but with such meaningful deliveries. The idea that Walter White is protecting and vouching for Jesse - but at the same time "because he does what I say" shows the dark perspective of exploiting Jesse - and then also at the same time "you can never trust a drug addict" showing it yet another way: Walter in a way being Jesse's victim.
Jesse was his ticket in but once Gus was in the picture....Walt was too attached to him, maybe his ego could've blown up eventually but just cooking in the laundry really would've been just fine....no need for Gale at all if Walt was relatively stable, maybe as a future stopgap once Walt succumbed to his cancer but yeah
Gus's harmless and friendly service manager schtick is fantastic. He plays it with such enthusiasm.
WW: Give me another chance
GF: No
Gus is still alive today
The change from Chicken Manager to Drug Kingpin is phenomenal. Giancarlo is such an underrated actor.
Not enough credit is given to Gus’s subtle expressions, you can see his smile slowly fade when he knows he’s found
Question to the people who watched this right when it aired:
Did you all know Giancarlo? Was he a big name at the time? Did that somehow make it predictable that this "manager" was indeed the person Walt was looking for?
No, no, and no.
I knew who he was from a previous movie but he wasn’t big enough where I assumed it was anything notable - so no I didn’t predict it
I didn’t even watch this when it aired and it’s still the earliest role I’ve ever seen for Giancarlo
He wasn't very famous. When I first watch Breaking Bad, I thought: Gus actor is really good. I thought if he's that good, I might have seen it somewhere, but I couldn't tell for sure if I had seen him before. Then I googled it, realized I saw old movies with him (Usual Suspects). No wonder Gus is his biggest role in his career.
Maximum Overdrive, Trading Places, The Usual Suspects, Ali, Miami Vice, etc.
good luck finding him
The way Gus changes his facial expression and voice tone after Walt says that they’re alike…
NPC Mask off
This is the show that you want to have a memory loss in order to watch it again! Unmatched!
“You can’t trust a drug addict.”
As someone who struggles with addiction, yeah…you can’t.
You will get through it my friend with the help of the lord Jesus Christ call upon him with all your heart and he will answer you. I’ve called upon him and he answered me with love and comfort it’s no joke give it a shot my friend. God bless and have a good day ❤️❤️✝️✝️
his expression change from his two face character of gustavo fring is indisputably the best. he knows before they even meet and keeps calm throughout the entire exchange
Gus was so much better at being in charge than Walt ever was. If Walt had just put his ego in check and been a cook, their success would have never ended.
Gus' ego was as huge as Walt's, they could never coexist.
@@NotAGoodUsername360 The difference was that Gus' ego was justified. He'd built a very successful organization that was humming. His only mistake was in trusting Walt to begin with.
@@lostinalbion4223Maybe you forgot that Walter was the brains behind a company worth 2.16 BILLION dollars, with a B. Heisenberg was the true genius, Gus was a criminal in disguise whose operation was mostly built on the back of his connections with the cartel and Madrigal. Walt died on HIS terms, and was smart enough to bait Gus and then blow him up using his ego against him. Between the 2, Walt won hands down
I love the transition from ‘Gus the Chicken Man’, to Gus Fring. There’s no fine line where you can see him turn, it’s smooth. Seamless, but immensely intimidating. He goes from an NPC like worker giving carbon copy responses…to a very poised, very poignant man.
There’s so much nuance in his performance. Strength and authority without physical force. He is to the point, and knows exactly what Walter is doing before he even talks to him. Truly shows his intelligence. There is only 1 Gustavo Fring, and this is him.
Gus came out as soon as Walt compared the two of them...that eyebrow relax spoke volumes.
0:40 that Walter White told Gus to “have a seat” in his own restaurant is such a power play. Normally, someone asking for another person’s time would at least stand up and shake that person’s hand.
gus flips it around by waiting for a 'please' and then still taking his time
Walt knew he had the upper hand. He knew Gus stood to make tons of money from him so long as he and Jesse delivered. And that's why Gus asked why Walt chose Jesse of all people. And so he chanced them being a gold mine for him. It's almost like investing in junk bonds. They can have a higher interest yield, but they also have a higher chance of defaulting.
Gus's acting is seriously mind-blowing
What I love about this show is that in most of the scenes it doesn’t have dramatic music or tension it’s just perfectly silent aside from real life elements happening around the characters which makes it all the more realistic
“Will I hear from you?”
Walt showed his fear in the way that line was delivered. He had been boasting, but that bravado was gone at the prospect of Gus saying “no.”
1:42 hit me hard back then. I mean it was obvious this meeting would take this turn but the acting was still so unbelievably good that it just pulls everything from underneath your feet. Gus is a machine!
The way Gus is able to drop the mask of a polite friendly manager to a deadly cold drug boss is brilliant. You wouldn't want to be in his bad books now would you? 👍
I love how gus initially saw jesse as some wacky nut job but ended up trusting him over walt in the end.
Gustavo treated his employees well. That's what counts.
Actually, the moment of changing his voice is very impressive. I get goosebumps every time while listening to his voice 👍👍
Watching BB for the second time. Gus is my favorite badass.
I knew what happened throughout the show before I even watched it for myself and I was still blown away when I first watched it The Acting is incredible and you really do feel like all these characters are going through all this even when it’s just a set. I’m almost on season 4 and let me tell you that breaking bad is the best tv show of all time
It’s very disturbing how Giancarlo can go from a genuine smile to a haunting dead eyes look so fast.
Notice how Gus' voice tone and facial expression changed a lot when he said "I don't think we are alike at all, Mr. White"
A simple conversation made so thrilling. Incredible performances.
"Never trust a drug addict"
The wisest words ever spoken by any man, in the history of the universe.
I love how when I first saw Gus in Breaking Bad, he is like this polite and friendly gentleman, but you can tell that there is something hidden within him. He's so... outright mysterious and catious, yet cold and calculated. You love to see it.
Two of the smartest man. But Gus was right all along. In the end Jessie is the main reason for Walters downfall..
Love how UA-cam throws Breaking Bad into my TL every year or 2. Time to rewatch it I think!
I love the subtle change in expression Giancarlo Esposito does when Walt says that they are alike in that way, as it regards caution. You can tell Gus is amused that Walt correctly guessed who he was, and is humoring Walt because it suits him at the moment.
But that slight smirk goes to an almost immediate scowl when Gus feels insulted by the comparison Walt makes, because he knows that they are nothing alike. Gus takes great pride in his professionalism and secrecy. Walt is just some shlub to Gus at this point.
Gus's expression says: "you are nothing like me and the comparison is insulting."
Funny how Gus was so worried about Jessie being a liability, but then it turns out that Walt is the liability and Jessie ends up being the loyal servant that Gus wants.
rewatch the show
Just finished watching the entire series. Enjoyed it thoroughly.
Just when you thought dramatic scenes couldn't get more intense and engaging, along comes this one.
My favorite thing about this scene is that you can physically see Gus’ facial expressions and personality change from restaurant owner to ruthless drug dealer the instant he realized what Walter was talking about at 1:29.
The start of a good friendship in working and eventually breaking bread together, what could go wrong?
Loool
0:43-1:08 meetings between me and my academic advisor be like
Bro the subtle change in Gus's facial expression when Walt compared the two was insane. I had to replay to catch it
I like how Walter says he would “like a Diet Coke” when he wants a Diet Coke. Excellent writing. Bravo Vince.
It was at this moment that walter jr was thinking about breakfast.
The Greatest TV Shows of all time Hands down!
One of the best shows ever. Can't believe I've never watched it until last year. Had to bingo watch it along with Soul Goodman
After binge watching clips of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, it's nice that the main channel still uploads
This scene blew my mind when I first saw it. I thought on first viewing it was Walt being desperate and delusional thinking he was "the guy". Testament to Giancarlo's acting
*"you can never trust a drug addict."*
That line has so much potential.
Wasn't answered in Better Call Saul either.
