By now, Ive noticed a recurring thing about Breaking Bad; the episode titles only become clar at then end of the episode. This happened in "IFT" and "Green Light", and now in the newest episode "Sunset".
Sunset is all about replacing what had been lost. Walt buys a brand new house, after moving out of his own. He also gets a new lab assistant, someone as passionate about chemistry as he is. Jesse starts his own business with Badger and Skinny P. The cousins start stalking Gus, and he offers them Hank in exchange for Walt.
To make it less confusing, I'll go back to the beginning. Walt buys a new house, and the next morning, after sending Walter Junior to school, heads for his under-laundry lab. There, he meets his new assistant, who uses his chemistry expertise to create great coffee, and impress Walt in the process. The two hook up better than Walt and Jesse ever did, as they share the same interests, and neither of them is a junkie.
Jesse discusses business with Badger and Skinny P, not knowing that Hank is watching his every move. He instructs Badger to et the RV up and running again, while Hank calls Walt and asks him about Jesse and the RV. Walt immediately drvies over to the junkyard, where Badger and his cousin were repairing it. Walt tells them about the police and the cousin knows a guy who could destroy the vehicle without a trace. While they went to make a call, Badger calls Jesse, who freaks and rushes out, much to the delight of Hank.
Walt drives the RV to a scrap metal yard, where it would be destroyed. Jesse turns up, and to their horror, Hank. Walt and Jesse lock themselves in the RV, while Hank tries to break in. Finally Walt gets him to go away by calling Saul and asking him to contact Hank, pretending that Marie had got into an accident. Hank races away, and Walt and Jesse finally come out of hiding. Hank races to the hospital and freaks out, thinking that Marie is dead until he finds out otherwise when she called him. From the expression on his face, Hank was totally PISSED!
The cousins have taken to haunting Gus' diner, and he placates them by offering Hank in exchange for Walt. Well, it was Hank who killed Tuco so they accepted. Looks like Hank is going to get chopped up pretty soon with that axe of theirs. And it's all Walt's fault.
Looks like everything is picking up finally from this episode on. Walt is back in the business, Hank is more eager than ever to catch Heisenberg, not knowing that he is Walt. And the cousins are now after Hank. Will he survive? I doubt it, unless Walt does something. And I seriously doubt that too. My prediction is that a future episode will end with Walt watching Hank get chopped to death, and not doing anything to help, like what happened to Jane. Some might argue that Walt won't let his bro-in-law die, but never forget this. Heisenberg will. And we've all seen how strong Heisenberg's personality is compared to Walt's.
I'm not really liking the direction the show is going, with Walt turning evil and all, but I understand that it's all the consequences of his decision to start cooking meth in the first place. Every action has its consequences, and Walt is starting to feel the worse of them. His character is developing according to his surroundings and he is forced to let his inner evil emerge and take over. Walt is becoming Heisenberg. No, wait. Walt is Heisenberg. And Hank will die because of that.
