Walt Urges Jesse To Pull The Trigger | End Times | Breaking Bad
Video Overview & Insights
Jesse accuses Walt of poisoning Brock (Ian Posada) out of spite.
I like to believe that part of Walts confidence in being able to sell his lie was that he was also willing to have Jesse kill him right then and there so it was a win win in his mind.
Season 4 Episode 12 End Times: Ordering his family to take advantage of the protection the DEA is giving Hank (Dean Norris), Walt (Bryan Cranston) awaits whatever is in store for him. But when his girlfriend's son is poisoned, Jesse (Aaron Paul) teams up with Walt to go after the man he is convinced is responsible: Gus.

This is one of Walter's biggest gambits in the whole series; he was even willing to put the gun to his forehead to keep up the lie. Walt was a master manipulator.

This scene has a glaring plothole.
Walt is claiming gus had someone take the ricin cigarette and manipulated jesse into thinking it was Walt.
BUT
In the previous scene where Jesse is in Sauls office.. Saul literally admits he got huel to take it out of his pocket.. becuase Walt asked him too 😂
Jesse has already been told by Sauk it was Walt.

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.
Better Call Saul is the prequel to the award-winning series Breaking Bad, set six years before Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) became Walter White's lawyer. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and often against, Jimmy is "fixer" Mike Erhmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy's transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts "criminal" in "criminal lawyer."
I feel like Walt gave himself a 50/50 chance of getting away with this because either way he had a death wish at this point. Either the plan works or all of this pain and misery ends by Jesse's hand.

Jesse had it figured out so Walt went with the- “😢 why in gods name would i poison a child??” He didn’t expect Jesse to get that far lmao

Apparently brain cranston didnt know that walt actually poisoned brock until after so him pleading was genuine
@Vaped_CrusuaderzJust seen a short explaining Bryan Cranston didnt know Walt actually did it till after this scene. He was really being honest 😅
@kanjo4976Jesse correctly identifies Walt's plan and immediately proceeds to fall for it
@emceesmith6665The actor said he didnt know he killed Brock. He only knew two days after filming this scene when he got the script.
@KY-dg8gpThis is the epitome of gaslighting and how evil it is.
@kristinachaney7391The second best actor in this scene is Aaron Paul playing Jesse. The best actor in this scene is Walter White playing someone who would never poison a child.
@rasmuseriksen86Breaking bad 3:58
@Mr.NoNamesbro456Jesse was so on point though
@harrysingh3888“You have proven that you are capable of running a lab…”
Brilliant manipulation tactic by Walt. He knows that even in a tense situation like this, Jesse is tragically desperate for validation and approval. One of the ways he starts winning his trust is by sprinkling in a subtle compliment.
Show name : do it
@montezuma9578It’s crazy how the first time we see this, we’re in Jesse’s position. We don’t know who poisoned Brock and despite all the evil things we’ve seen Walt do, his performance here is so convincing, he manages to convince Jesse and us that Gus was behind this. I think the most menacing part is that from the very get go he’s manipulating the situation. Even when he’s running around paranoid and panicking about Gus, this is all an act to throw Jesse off the scent. The second time we watch this we can see the mastery of his trickery, and how easily he led Jesse down the path of deception. The change up between paranoid and scared to confident and fearless in the face of death was the crown jewel of his master deception.
@frayfogJesse’s an idiot
@careerlinks6655Waltuh become Jokah when he was telling Jesse to shootem
@movarqI heard the director had the poisoning scene and this scene shot in reverse so Walt really thought he was innocent and delivered that so confidently.
@izzybusybonesYou know what’s crazy. When I saw this scene, I already saw clearly through Walt. I already knew how big of a narcissist he was, how he was able to manipulate everyone. And yet that son of a bitch was able to convince me that he had nothing to do with it.
@Raphafast28Ahhh this show is so good
@IsaacGriggs97I would’ve called his bluff and pulled the trigger. Hate this character. He ruined everything he came across
@BlitzoSuck33DO IT!
@okmaxCool
@YTonYahoo4:38 this was the moment Walter White became Indian
@NAAAAAILThis is my all time favorite scene. Like cmon man
@TetfimaAnyone gunna talk about Walt’s forehead…like the perfect gun barrel print.
@trippietoadie1296In Walt’s defense, he was going to die in addition one way or the other..Him manipulating Jesse was the only way he could have come out clean and won the battle against Gus.
@QuixoticShawnThis scene is so stupid. How can someone be THIS GOOD at what they do. This acting is second to none.
@OHCOULDITBEThis is magnificent acting.
@Aribethe4:31 Fun fact: Jesse was trying to pull the trigger but Walter swapped the gun earlier so it is extremely heavy. This is the reason why he looks so exhausted and frustrated when he takes the gun off of Walter's head. Bravo Vince.
@vitorctStupid to think Jesse would think Walt poisoned brick
@廖铭轩-d5rHis manipulation is crazy “YOU don’t even know that” “You are the last puzzle” he was truly gone at this point.
@Publixx0:35 and only HUELL and I
@RubbleByteLife advice. Don't try this manipulative tactic with Todd.
@toptenguy1Should have pulled the trigger
@JohnathonCraine23The amount of times during the series where Walt says he is not lying but infact is lying baffles me.
@puckstopper19372:21 😂😂😂😁
@bassam.rizwanThis ends up being one of the greatest t.v. twists of all time.
@twmax65254:38 That circle the barrel of the gun leaves on Walt's forehead always cracks me up
@Tharsis_What the film makers did to that actors? 😮 look at Aaron's face!
@Мария-н9п7рWalter’s act here is so convincing because (as we learn from the DVD commentary) Bryan Cranston, when he’s doing this scene, genuinely believes that Walt is innocent. There’s something so postmodern about that. As if Walter White has gotten so powerful that he’s even able to manipulate HIS ACTOR.
@MoriloreGod, Walt laughing like he figured out Gus's master plan all the while it being his own WAS brilliant 😂 because Walt was such a pushover in the earlier seasons, people underestimate how smart, intelligent, and DANGEROUS he really was, he almost merged his own personality with Heisenberg to create this dangerous innocent seeming manipulative personality that traps people into letting thier guard down. Letting him get away with ALOT. Yes he's done stupid things throughout the show but he was definitely gus level intelligence.
@femboyscotty234:19 the moment Walt showed his inner Palpatine
@Joee12571:49 ADMIT IT
@stevenrivera5798Walt: just kill me
Jeese: good pulls trigger
Jeese continues to cook, Brock recovers and Andrea lives and so does Gus and Mike
