Limp Ditka 8,962 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 http://www.avclub.com/articles/attention-do-not-use-the-gps-coordinates-in-breaki,101841/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=SocialMarketing&utm_campaign=LinkPreview:1:DefaultUnfortunate news for anyone hoping to use the coordinates mentioned in Sunday’s episode of Breaking Bad to unearth their own buried treasure: Breaking Bad is a television show whose characters and situations are purely fictional, and also, those coordinates don’t actually lead where the episode suggests they do. In “Buried,” Walter White has his money stuffed into barrels that he then drives out into the middle of the desert, using a GPS tracker to pinpoint their secret location as +34° 59′ 20.00″, -106° 36′ 52”, right next to the little bush. Yet anyone who actually goes looking in that spot for his ill-gotten spoils definitely won’t find a barren landscape concealing the fortune of a fake man.Instead, they’ll find the home of Albuquerque Studios, the production facility where much of Breaking Bad has been filmed alongside other projects such as The Avengers—so, a place that yields huge caches of money, yes, but not in the “stuffed into barrels you can dig out of the ground” kind of way. (Another hidden joke: If you add up all the numbers in the coordinates, then subtract them from 5,318,315, then hold your calculator upside down, it looks like the word “BOOBIES.” What does it mean?)

Zow 8,507 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Maybe it's because I live in the crowded Northeast, but is the desert so expansive that you can drive out there, stay there all day digging a hole, and well into the night w/ car headlights on, and see nobody? AbsolutelyYep. One of my biggest "shockers" from moving to AZ from the northeast was just how spread out things were. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gr00vus 11,814 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Seems like they're setting up Hank/law enforcement offering a deal to Walt whereby he gives them the new Lydia/Todd operation in exchange for immunity & relocation for his family. It goes wrong somehow, lots of main characters die and Walt has to clean it up himself.It'd be great if Jesse did a 180 here and claimed to be Heisenberg himself. I think that'd be more interesting than what seems to be happening with him finally ratting Walt out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

17seconds 556 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 They are deliberately having Jesse lay low. Guaranteed he wakes up in the next couple of eps and gets in the game big time. Maybe the key player in the ending - the way his character is acting right now is really looking like a plot setup.I like the thought I've heard that several characters are trying to figure out how to "win" based on where Walt is right now. Walt's win is to keep the money (Skyler mostly aligned with him), Hank's win is to get Walt, Lydia's win is to resurrect the business, Marie's win is to get Skyler's baby.Would be interesting to see Jesse wake up and end up winning...

Gustavo Fring 461 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Next episode, Flynn drags his feet to the breakfast table and overdoses on Frosted Flakes. Later in the episode it will be revealed that Walt used some of the ricin, as the cost of cereal was starting to eat away at his profits, thus tying out that loose end.

I'd love to see him team up with Skylar after they all walk. Series ends with Walt begging for his life in a ditch with Sky and Jesse looking over him.

Psychopav 1,130 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I still wonder if Hank's line from last week - "I don't give a s about family" will have any consequences. This is another example of the brilliant acting and writing on this show. He says it and we all know he doesn't really mean it. And then he's in the diner with Skeyeluhr and even though his words and actions still seem to say he doesn't care about family, he clearly does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Psychopav 1,130 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 So did Hank go in to work to tell what he suspects? Seems like he was going to take that chance.He seemed torn and probably changing his mind second to second, but yes, moving the budget meeting back seemed to imply he was going to tell.The interrogation of Jesse, I'm sure, will affect whether or not he actually follows through with it. I hope he does, but he probably won't. Drama pretty much can't exist without people, especially cops, doing dumb things.In "One Minute", Jesse tells Walt that ratting him out is his get out of jail free card. Walt doesn't believe him, saying that if he he was really serious then Jesse would have done it to avoid the beating.Does he hate Walt enough now to rat him out? Seems plausible.

But a $15 or $20 million dollar offer from your brother-in-law to keep quiet -- which would allow you to continue your upward career path, to maintain the hard-earned respect of your colleagues, and to avoid a catastrophic family meltdown -- seems like it could make even the most honest character consider "breaking bad."

If he really wanted to, like, clear his conscience or whatever by ratting out Walt, wouldn't he have done that already? If Hank gets Jesse to roll on Walt I assume he's going to at least explain to Jesse why he beat him up, he will explain that ultimately it was Walt's doing with the phone call. If Hank somehow hints at Walt's involvement with the ricin poisoning of Brock or Jane's death that should put Jesse over the edge, but from what we have seen Hank does not have any intel to link Walt to either of those incidents.
