    It’s kinda amazing how ricin is present throughout the series, it starts with Tuco, with them wanting to use it on him, but it’s not until the very last episode of the show that we actually see someone poisoned with ricin. Such good writing.

      The hype when Walt went and retrieved it from the house was insane. That cold open is one of the best in the series; the audience is made to think that he's overwhelmed by regret or nostalgia, but no, he's there to kill yet another person. It's only episode 9, so is he trying to kill Hank? Jesse? If things have gone this wrong, could it be Skylar? Vince played the final season masterfully

      That does make sense though, because he already knew at that point that brock wasn’t poisoned by ricin. He goes completely insane and threatens Saul as if he has any proof that Walter poisoned Brock with THE LILY OF THE VALLEY, which he should know was the real poison. It feels like the show forgot this at that point. Since it was already established that it is something kids apparently commonly are poisoned by naturally, there is no reason to suspect Walter and especially no reason to be so completely certain of it. He has nothing, the show acts like it was the ricin that poisoned brock

      if you truly take in all of the aspects of the scene, I think one might find that Walt's "acting" is actually incredibly mediocre at times throughout this whole confrontation. He's a world class liar but he's starting to slip, it might even be partly out of a deep down feeling of guilty for pulling such a move. He kind of gets lucky a little bit in that Jesse never picks up on it because he's so enraged.

    It's kinda neat how ricin is microcosmic for Walt's criminal endeavors. Most of these clips are unrelated to its actual usage, rather its force as leverage, and the consequences of such. In the end, most of Walt's strengths arise from his mind games in his ability to manipulate those around him (especially Jesse), even as his strengths as a chemist are undoubtedly what you'd assume of the man immediately.

    • @iantaakalla8180
      @iantaakalla8180 Рік тому

      Even better, when he successfully uses the ricin, it is when Walter is basically dead. But most importantly, the ricin/sugar swap was surreptitious. The ricin was no longer a deterrent or a manipulating thing. He just killed Lydia with it. It perfectly reflects how Walter is not puffing himself up at that point, just doing what he needs to do.

    Heisenberg was a mastermind when it came to the ricin. He had Saul’s guys lift the ricin off Jesse and poisoned Brock with Lily of the Valley. He knew Jesse would expect Walt to have lifted the ricin. He cooked a story that makes sense, that Gus lifted the ricin and poisoned Brock to frame Walter and get him killed. Then, Jesse finds out it wasn’t ricin that poisoned Brock, it was Lily of the Valley all along. Then Heisenberg plants fake ricin in the Roomba so that the whole scheme with Saul is now impossible, to Jesse. Then he hides the ricin and saves it for future use, which is when he uses it on Lydia. That whole storyline was freaking brilliant. Even us, the audience, was fooled until Jesse finally figured it out. Bravo Vince.

    "Jesse Discovers Saul Stole the Ricin" is my personal favorite scene in the entire show. Not just based on Aaron Paul's acting within it, but as a whole itself. There's so much raw anger and genuine fear all packed in the span of 5 minutes. Even the music taking a dark and hostile turn is a key point. You'd think that it's officially over for Jesse, going to live his new life in Alaska, but within 30 seconds of waiting for Ed, he's forced back into everything he was desperately trying to escape from.
