    Because she and Todd were the most annoying characters on that show. For me, that was the most satisfying heisenberg kill of the entire series.

    So at the end of the series, which episodes would you rank as the best?

    For me, it has to go something like:

    1. Ozymandias
    2. Half Measures
    3. Fly
    4. Crawl Space
    5. Crazy Handful of Nothin'

    So, everybody?

    Seriously, that was the most obvious way to use it. The people who had other theories only had them because they thought the Stevia was too obvious and a possible red herring.

    Did lydia even die? Couldn't she have gotten to the ER in time? Also the guy in the recliner/massage chair, did he even get shot? I swear it looked like he dodged the bullets.

    There is no antidote. Ricin gets inside the cells of your body and prevents them from creating proteins which kills the cell. The only way to treat ricin poisoning is to get the ricin out of the body. Lydia has probably been exposed too long for any treatment to be successful.

    I wasn't one of the people who called you stupid, but you were getting unnecessarily upset about it. Also, you were adamantly claiming that the Schwartz's had nothing to do with the end of the series and that it wouldn't make sense to bring them back.

    Half Measure
    Negro y Azul
    One Minute
    Hermanos
    Salud
    End Times
    Crazy Handful of Nothing

    Woah woah woah woah woah....slow down there, Buster.

    Let's not cheat and take things out of context, ok??

    "Injecting a "new" storyline 59 minutes into the penultimate episode that has nothing to do with the major goings on in Albuquerque lacks impact and is silly."

    Walt using them as a means to get his family his money ABSOLUTELY is pertinent to the major goings on. I said Walt finding them and ricin-ing them to death would be pointless.

    Full measures and crawl space were my favorites. Loved the show and loved the ending. Just a great damn show, sad it's over.

    Lydia gets the ricin because she gets Todd and the Aryan brotherhood involved. If she just goes away, Walt is working peacefully at the car wash

    How did they rescue Brock from it then?

    As for the show. Just amazing. I was slightly bothered with the car keys but was just didn't care too much for it.
    Just a perfect way to end the show. Everyone knew Walt HAD to die and they put him down the best way possible.
    The scene that had the most emotion had to be him touching Holly and watching Junior.
    The best part of it all was him finally being honest about being selfish.

    About the theory of him killing jessie then later dying....an added incentive to it would be killing jessie to stop him from somehow going to hurt Walters family. Jessie is very unstable and as known even when Walter has saved him numerous times before, he still did not fully forgive him...(wouldn't have liked this way)


    Thank you BB, the best show ever.

    Yeah, that was all based on will he or won't he ricin them. That was the entire argument.

    The way they were integrated was perfectly sensible, and not disjointed.

    Quit grasping at straws. I was correct. I said ricin-ing the Schwartzes made no sense and lacked impact. I was called an idiot and was told I must have never seen the show for thinking so.

    Swallowing your pride and admitting you are wrong after slinging insults to back your stance hurts (whoever it was. Don't feel like going back and looking.)
