It's clear in the scene with his men in Saul's office that Ted is dead. If he was just injured they would still be with Ted at his house.Saul: I told her you were my A-team
Doesn't mean he's dead IMO.
Would they have still mailed the check if he had died? Seems like the problem would be resolved at that point.
Yes.
Only if Arizona Ron keeps him alive. He's as dead as dead can be, move on.
I don't want another page about why Ted is or is not dead. The 100+ posts about why Gus can't tolerate 96% purity were painful enough.The entire purpose was to keep the IRS from going after Skyler. He dies without paying and she's the next in line.
I thought Gale held that title. But I guess that has since been cleared up.
really homer?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pine_Barrens_(The_Sopranos)
He's alive.
They should have had some long, tracking shot that made it look like Ted was in a grave. That way we'd know he was dead.
AMC has a strange fascination with suicides...what with Rosie Larsen and now Ted.

It was on the GPS. Duh. "Clandestine Medical Tent Hidden in Mexican Warehouse Outside of Town"I have the same thing programmed in mine.
Ahhh...ok. See I thought that maybe it was the people at the tent that were honking the horn and Jesse was just following that so that he could locate them.
I don't know to what extent Jessie knew who was there. But I'm sure it was discussed that there was some sort of "safe house" & people who could be trusted if they had trouble with the cartel.
why is this so unbelievable?
Mike was conscious and obviously knew what was going down.
I am not saying that it is unbelievable but it just seems that as detailed as Gus is in his planning, that he was taking an out of character risk (on top of what he had already planned for the cartel) to be sure that Mike would be around to get him to the hospital while he would surely be dying from the poison. I realize that the whole mission was risky and not every question can be answered. I am ok with that. It's just that, my wife and I were just watching the show when we looked at each other and asked how did Jesse know where he was going if Mike nearly dead and Gus is unconscious.
Not a stretch that Mike gave directions or had a map for Jesse when they jacked that car. Mike was coherent at that point. Would it have made more sense if Jesse had known where the safehouse was prior? Yes. Only watched the episode once. Was it possible that Jesse could have known of the safehouse? Either way Mike was coherent if just barely.
I think Walter kills Gus and Mike and Hank becomes Walt's Mike.
I don't see the upside for Saul there. I also didn't really buy Walt's explanation as to why he couldn't do it himself. I'm pretty sure I could call my wife's coworkers and be 100% confident that they wouldn't recognize my voice.A minor quibble, to be sure, but I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought that. Otherwise, another top-notch episode in an amazing season.Or why did Gus and Jesse have to walk the 6 miles?
There's plenty of reasonable explanations for that, as some have offered here. And in any event it wasn't really necessary to advance the plot. They could easily have just edited out that scene. Calling in the possible attempt on Hank's life, however, is a key turning point and it was executed in a kind of strange way.
But that call was probably recorded and will probably receive more scrutiny than the typical phone call, and Hank himself might listen to it to see if anyone recognizes the voice. Of course, since Saul supposedly has TV commercials airing 24/7 in ABQ, that may be the bigger quibble (but maybe he had a member of his "A Team" or his secretary make the call).
But we didn't hear the call, right? I highly doubt Saul made it himself. Remember he had his secretary (IIRC) make the call about Marie being in bad shape at the hospital last season. He probably had one of the guys on his "A-team" make the call.But that call was probably recorded and will probably receive more scrutiny than the typical phone call, and Hank himself might listen to it to see if anyone recognizes the voice. Of course, since Saul supposedly has TV commercials airing 24/7 in ABQ, that may be the bigger quibble (but maybe he had a member of his "A Team" or his secretary make the call).
Clearly Bill Burr made the call.But that call was probably recorded and will probably receive more scrutiny than the typical phone call, and Hank himself might listen to it to see if anyone recognizes the voice. Of course, since Saul supposedly has TV commercials airing 24/7 in ABQ, that may be the bigger quibble (but maybe he had a member of his "A Team" or his secretary make the call).
He told Jesse to drive so it's pretty clear that he also told him where to go.
He's made phone calls before from a pay phone.ETA: We will see if he does make that call or not.
Nothing has been executed yet. He could have made the call for Walt or didn't. We'll find out next episode.
I thought it was pretty clear from Marie's call to Skyler at the end of the episode that the call to Hank was made.
Thanks.
