I don't exactly remember who all knows Walt was the one who poisoned Brock. Who are the loose ends? Walt would be stupid to tell Jesse he's guilty of poisoning a kid and lose his manipulation of Jesse. He would have to be insane to tell him something like that. If Jesse finds out it will be someone else who tells him but I don't remember who knows... Goodman??
Oh and even if Jesse does find out the truth about Brock, do you think he would try to kill Walt over it? Like I said, Jesse hasn't completely "broken bad" yet, as of right now I would be more inclined to believe Jesse would simply back out of the business.
yes he is the only person that knows about it other than Walt. As far as we are led to believe. I still wonder when and wear it happened.

Interesting theory on the Hollywood Prospectus podcast from Grantland: one of the hosts predicted that Lydia will make a play on Walt's children. While I haven't seen that myself, Walt Jr. has been getting some good face time and she did ask Walter, during the interrogation last week, if he had children. He quickly followed up by telling her that she had no leverage, but did he unwittingly give her some? Lydia's shown herself to have an itchy trigger finger and Mike is already upset at himself for killing her a few times over. Other than that, I stick to my theory that this mini-season ends with Walt killing Skylar and Jesse feeling the pinch of marginalization, similar to what Walt felt before killing Gus. That would set up 2013, and Walt's Old Man of the Mountain 52nd birthday, quite nicely; the audience completely loathing him, fully aware that, at some point, he has a weapon that would make Tony Montana blush.
On 2nd thought.. I just watched the Madrigal episode again and after seeing the interrogation scene with Hank, Gomez and Mike - I don't think Gomez would be Mike's "inside man". If I were to take another stab in the dark then perhaps it'd be Merkert??? He is pretty much the head dude in charge and it'd benefit him to be on the inside more than Gomez. Merkert had that monologue on how he used to cook family dinners with him in his own home "not knowing" but he could be redirecting Hank and anyone elses attention in the same vein that Walt did with Hank when planting the bugs. He didn't just fib, he fibbed with truth. I also have another theory dealing with Walt Jr. Spoiler He's dead this season.. this or before it all ends. There's been an on going theme with sons/daughters harmed or dying through out the entire series, only each death gets closer and closer and closer to Walt and each death is an effect to his cause. Jane dies as a result to Walt's hesitance to help. A young boy dies with Walt's hand inadvertedly in the cookie jar and his cousin nearly escapes a death that would single handedly be at the hand of Walt. Now we have a young boy die 20 feet from where walt stands. At the same time, we're seeing a drive from Walt to push forward that is reaching further and further from his original reason to start cooking meth in the first place, which was - "for the family" Add the fact that they have Skylar stressing more than ever the danger that he knowing or unknowingly is bringing to the kids... Just speculation...
Is it possible that the kid on the bike somehow knew that new guy? Like maybe he was waving to Todd specifically, which is why only Todd waved back? And maybe he shot him not just because he recognized him at the tracks, but because he's seen him before???
I don't think Todd knew the kid, but interesting theory. Is it right that there are 3 more episodes until the hiatus for the second half of the season? I agree Skylar has to go soon. IMO last week showed mucho about how ballsy (and brilliant) the writers are. That went pretty dark. I wouldn't be shocked if Skylar, the kids, Marie and Hank are all dead soon.
look how happy walt is after the kid gets shot. SICK!!.first show if seen where the protagonist turns into the antagonist...greatest cooking show ever..
Ok, I know this is a thread for Season 5, but I just got finished with Season 4. The 2nd to last episode of Season 4 in the parking garage was THE single most intense scene of television I have ever witnessed. I watched it again about 15 minutes later and it got even better. Chills. The end was also fantastic but almost anti-climactic. Now....on to catch up with ya'll on season 5!
Now Walt has a Stone-Cold killer working for him. Where to point that guy next? There are nine loose ends that need to be tied up.
Wonder why they took out todd waving in that clip. Thought it was pretty significant in that scene. It's funny, I was watching the open and thinking "WTF was this about. Dumbest open ever for breaking bad" man I was wrong!
5 seasons in! You should know the greatness that is Breaking Bad doesn't just throw up random cold opens without heavy meaning/reason!
Isn't it odd how the teddy bear they showed throughout season 2 had an eye missing and half its side burned, and Gus was burned up on one side with an eye missing after the explosion at the end of S4? The show goes deep.
