fun fact: this scene was not scripted. it was a real rant caught on camera, bc aaron paul never wanted to be a part of the show, he was just trying to sell meth to the producers since day one.
Lmao this is the best "fun fact this wasnt scripted" comment I've seen on these breaking bad videos
YOU'RE NOTHING TO ME BUT CUSTOMERSSSS!!!!!!
Not too many know about that one!
I was about to rage lol
You ever notice the most brilliant people are on these breaking bad clips? You guys give me life, thank you.
The counselor 100% knew Jesse was talking about a person and not a dog.
The counselor 100% knew he was an actor on a TV show and it was neither a person or a dog that was killed

@@coultonharmon2266 Most useless comment ever
So you’re saying the counselor was ok with murder but not ok with dealing drugs?
Doesn’t make sense….
@@neonjoe529 I'm not saying the counselor was okay with any of it, when Jesse asks him if he accepts he says No, which could be for the murder, the drugs, the realization that Jesse isn't exactly who he thought he was.
Jesse was so desperate to be held accountable for his horrible deeds, he sabotaged his only decent support group. How profoundly sad
Fr, he definitely didn't start going there to sell meth and he didn't even try for that long, but he threw that on top of everything and exaggerated it because he hated himself so much right then
@@TimeTheLord His initial stay at rehab really did a horrible job selling what their message was. It was there that he accepted himself as the "bad guy", when they should have helped Jesse completely get out of that lifestyle.
@@MsAliciaRL Yeah it weren't a group worth attending they just actively enabled people. Jesse was right about what the leader was putting in their heads.
The article "Breaking Bad: A Christian Parable" has some good observations on how lacking this support group was.
There was no real support here, Jesse was just calling them out on their bullshit and their self-delusions. And despite being right in what he said unfortunately all it did was make him feel even more hopeless, because confronting the truth in a way these people never had the guts to, can also just lead to more misery.
Crying while saying "You're nothing to me but customers" is a really sad line. The self loathing he's feeling is tragic.
Why do people feel bad for Jesse simply because he acts 'sad' in the later episodes? He's a piece of garbage across the whole series.
Because in a show about generally reprehensible people, Jesse is the closest thing we have to a moral compass; he's the only one who isn't okay with committing terrible acts, and this scene highlights how he just wanted to be punished for it, not accepted as just another bad guy, because that would make him like Walt, Gus, Saul and co... just another bad guy with no conscience.
@@Laissez-faire402 found colleen's alt
@@Laissez-faire402 I agree he is a piece of garbage, a meth head, but people can feel bad for a piece of garbage.
And that line was a fooking lie..
The counselor deserves some recognition for this scene too
Jere Burns is fantastic. I especially liked him as Anson ( I think that's the spelling) in Burn Notice
Took me several rewatches to realize he's the Lieutenant(?) in Angie Tribeca. Great show btw it's written by Steve Carrell and has a very similar style of humor to movies like Airplane! and Naked Gun
yeah he played his role very well. and i especially liked his facial transition when jessie brought up his kid.
jere burns was awesome in "justified"
@@KillerMouse He was also in Justified. Played an excellent villian.
It’s funny how in season one we thought that it was Jesse who was ‘meant’ for this lifestyle, not Walt... but holy hell, did the show writers prove us wrong.
Damn this right here dude.. never thought Walt would’ve end up like he did, considering he really turned evil in comparison to Jesse he was just in a constant fight with himself
Walter was a bad person pretending to be good, while Jesse was a good person pretending to be bad.
I think finding Jane is what changed him. It presented him with a possible good future with meaning he could have. And it was taken away....so Walt could keep making money
@@BlakeFerret possible good future? That Jane made Jesse try Heroin dude.. not really that good. I’d say Andrea was Jesse’s soulmate and sadly she died
@@okat32 she did....not saying that was a healthy relationship....but I think a girl and a fam was all jesse was really looking for
The way Colleen's lines are written really gives me the impression she's supposed to be the kind of person who would care a lot less if she knew he wasn't talking about a dog.
my thoughts exactly
Yea she got them “humans are evil, animals are innocents creatures” vibe
@@socksman9968 hate those kinds of people
@@commanderofkesariyaknights dogpilled yet again
truuuuuu
The line that breaks my heart is “So I should stop judging. And accept?” I always hear it as Jesse BEGGING to be judged and punished for the worst of his actions. It gives me chills every time. Having a conscience had such a high price in this show.
And jesse was one of the only people in this show who had actual morals and a conscience.
I just saw this comment the moment he said it
I think the only reason why he didn't go off to police was just that Mike and Saul would take him out no matter what
@@artistocraaat Which is the reason why he sinks as low as he does. Once he killed Gale, he felt like there was no redemption after that, so he went from snorting a little meth himself, to pressuring his friends (who were trying to get sober), to turning his own house to a crack house, to completely giving up on himself.
Calm down shithouse 🤣
FINALLY this scene without "sad" music in the background
You don't need music to add to dramatic effect if you've got amazing actors and writers. In fact, I think it makes it feel more genuine.
Same goes for laugh tracks in comedies. Don't tell me to laugh or cry, make me!
@@corndogrequiem1728
Some of the scenes in shows that I remember the best have amazing soundtracks accompanying them. "You're all alone" from HIMYM where Ted realized he didn't belong in new york, "baby blue" from breaking bad where Walt ends his saga, "YOUSEEBIGGIRL" from attack on titan when Reiner and Bertolt betray their comrades. Music adds more to the scene, but it has to be used properly.
The use of sound in this show is perfect, including the use of silence.
@@PengyDraws Very true, but silence can be just as powerful when used correctly
yeah, because everywhere on instagram or whatever they put sad music to this scene and i really hate it
This scene is really important, because it's the first place where we are shown clearly that Jesse hates what he has become. From here on out it's just a downward spiral for him.
Definitely not the first time. We saw it with Jane, we saw it with Combo as well.
Jesse was on a downward spiral since season 1
thanks for reminding me of my daily nine inch nails dose
@@thewired4607 💪
This is the exact moment where the counselor becomes Tuco.
Feel sorry for the counsellor. Genuinely seemed like a great person who understood the pain Jessie was in and wanted to help. Then again, it was probably a blessing in disguise that Jessie cut him off here because the show would probably find a way to kill him off in a horribly traumatic way and make Jessie even more miserable
lol
My favorite part was when he hit his daughter with a truck. Really solidified his greatness
@@joerogers3652 😂

The counselor performed this scene incredibly. It’s clear to the audience that he knows exactly what Jessie is talking about, while he allows all of the other group members to remain clueless.
The attention in his eyes, subtly leaning forward…
It’s amazing what actors are capable of, especially with professional directing and editing to capture it all.

The amazing part is that it’s totally believable that the rest of the people had no idea what he was talking about, because they never cared enough to really listen. They are still druggies and 90% don’t care

You can pinpoint it
Weird...it's like the title of the video let us know that or something.
@@Andrew-og7li r/whoosh
@@pinecrustjuise explain, please :(
Because legit, I just see a comment that outlines exactly what the title is lol
The really sad part of this scene is that Jesse wasn’t just there to sell them meth. He hadn’t been to the group in a long time, and Badger and Skinny Pete were in the process of getting clean. He was there because he needed help. Jesse was so desperate for them to hate and judge him that he used all the ammo he had.
I think the underlying psychology behind Jesse's behavior here is that he has so much guilt and shame for what he has done that he doesnt believe he can be forgiven. And the positivity the group is giving him does nothing for him emotionally because he feels he cannot be honest. He was pushing the limits of the support group to confirm what he believes deep within, that there is no fixing him, that they wont accept him. He wanted the therapist to say 'no' so he had an excuse to leave and give up on his therapy, so that he wouldnt have to blame himself for 'giving up'.
The sad thing about Jesse is that he really is a good person, because of the guilt he feels. Contrast that with Walt who is whistling at work right after telling him that little kids death is breaking him apart too. Jesse started going to therapy for Jane's death, but he stayed because he realized he was running away from a lot more than just that. He is not a criminal, never was.
It is so amazing that all those actors became drug adicts and went to therapy just to make this scene more believeable. Makes you realize how good the cast for this show was.
Unfunny
I thought it was funny
Bravo Vince
So unfunny that i almost believed it was a real fact
That's PhD-level method acting right there.
Amazing acting. You can see hurt in the man's eyes when jessie brings up his daughter
Honestly Aaron Paul's Jesse is still one of the most best acting performances I have ever seen. That said pretty much every actor on this show was amazing
yea that pause after hearing it shows 2 things. he felt it and he has a huge self control. But u can tell that he got shocked when jesse says it
@Ben Strehlow I agree it was a group effort that made this show spectacular. The show would have failed if they didn't pick all these good actors ! Very good supporting roles on this show 👍

@@falconeshield The counselor's back story is that he had accidentally killed his baby daughter a long time ago. Jesse brought that up to mess with him.

@@Pitchman14 lol
What I loved about Jesse was that he was, at his core, gentle. He never wanted to hurt anyone or anything. Underneath all the swagger and bullshit, he was a beautiful soul that cared deeply about everything-- to the point that he had to numb it to cope. He may have had a record, but he was innocent until he met Walt again. This is the scene where he realized none of that goodness was left.
Bullshit. The kid uses the money Walt had earned the hard way and given to him to buy the RV just to drink and take drugs with his friends. He was not a killer (he was not brave enough) but surely a bad person
@@marcot3868 Foolish to think you can make an estimation about someone's moral standing and then justify it with one bad action. Jesse isn't perfect, neither is Walt, nor Skyler, nor even Hank. Jesse isn't a "bad person." He's morally grey. Most people are. If I took a snapshot of your worst action and used it to paint you in a bad light, most people would think you a monster, too.
@@theophany4935 Exactly, if someone took a snapshot of my worst action they’d see me strangling that baby and think I was a monster

Everything Jesse is feeling is screaming at him to change. And in order to change you have to accept yourself for who you are. When you feel that you are a bad person, that feeling enables you to rationalize doing things that you don't feel are ok to do. It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy: feeling like a bad person is exactly what gives you permission to do things that you think are bad.
It's almost impossible to accept yourself without others accepting you. Jesse feels that he can't be accepted for who he is. He feels that if they really knew the truth, they wouldn't accept him. And he is proven right. When he starts to reveal himself, he is judged instead of accepted.
You helped one person out today. 😊
Or more like he was starting to put faces behind the people who did his meth, starting to see the pain he was inflicting after directly ending someone's life. I think the guilt just started boiling and he saw himself in the mirror and realized he became a monster. This was his conscious screaming and he had to have someone tell him he's not okay for what he did. He wants to be punished I think.
I think there is a difference between admitting who you are, and accepting who you are.
Jessie admitted the truth that he was simply there to scam them into buying from him.
He rightfully said that they should not accept that, and he should not accept that.
Jessie needs to get righteous with himself and the world before he can, or should, be accepted.
he just goes down the fallacy of his own pain and others, who try to deal with their own pain, simply recognize it
ask yourself if he would make the same speech at the end of El Camino
@@KazimierzStaszewski he wouldn't. His redemption arc was right after when he sold out Walter to Hank, and when Andrea was murdered and he was locked up, he became so empty and hopeless that when he was released all he could feel was joy and like a new man who just wants to escape his past and be done with everything. El Camino is a Jesse who has been at the end of a burning rope for so long that he's mentally prepared to die and engages in gunduels. An even more radical comparison is comparing Jesse of EC to Jesse when he was going to kill the drug dealers in the earlier seasons.
Jessie's voice wavering before picking up and getting angrier at 1:17 to stop himself from crying is another bit of acting masterclass

Wish I could wipe my memory and re-watch this show all over again, just so I can experience it all over
I know how you feel. One day I put the show on, and I just bingewatched the whole thing. I had high hopes for El Camino, but it felt off and rehashed the most unsatisfying parts of the show.
That's a show that can be rewatched, don't worry. I'd even say it gets better
i wish i could wipe every scene withskyler from the show, then i could rewatch it. Shes just unbearable
"Chronic methamphetamine abuse could cause memory loss"... give it a try?
@@bastiaan0741 El Camino was very disappointing imo but you should try Better Call Saul, which is brilliant
This scene alone is why this man has a shelf full of Emmys. Contrary to what Jesse said in Season 3, at this point, he was all alone. His family wanted nothing to do with him, his girlfriend was dead, his friends were drifting apart from him, and Walter barely cared about his well being. It's no wonder he gravitated towards Mike and Gus.
I like that the fact the counselor knew Jesse wasn't talking about a dog also speaks towards why he's so careful at the end of the outburst -- he knows this is someone who is actively committing murder, and that he's been welcoming in a person far more dangerous than anyone anticipated, even if it is Jesse
That counselor was underrated, tbh.
It is insane how even the smallest of characters seem interesting.
True
"Im here to sell you meth"
*Cameraman goes over to the guy who looks like he is cooking meth*

He looks like a sad, not as tall Kevin Nash.
He probably is trying to get away from drugs or something
Editor did that.
O
I wonder how many random people pass by this video with no knowledge of Breaking Bad and get way more angry thinking Jesse killed a "dog."
Trueeee
Probably no one
Me
That was me, I watched this scene and immediately got annoyed, I get that by adding death to TV, you add a lot of ways to give the viewer something unexpected, or in the case of some villains a way to excite the viewer, but I hate when creators add pet and child murder. I ended up looking at the comments to see he didn't actually kill a dog, but if I hadn't I might not have kept watching.
@4ever EndlessX Nope, didn't even watch it, seen a few scenes, but the guy that killed the dog got off easy and I didn't have any interest because of that.
Arcane also disappointed me, the main villain in it kills a cat in the beginning and then they proceed to try to make him someone you can somewhat sympathize with through out the story, but it fails to do that because you've already been exposed to how awful he is and you just want to see him die painfully.
The way the counselor lifted his foot at 2:12 was his way of separating himself from Jesse's attack. Right when Jesse says, "you accept?" Watch the counselor lift his foot as a barrier before saying no.
I believe it's a body move while he was suppressing the tension that he was feeling inside him.
2:18 jesse thinking of an epic response
This might be a dumb question but do you think the counselor knew that Jesse was talking about taking someone’s life ?
I was think that too.
The way he silenced Colleen tells everything. He was the only person in the room who read between the lines.
I don't think he specifically knew it was murder but he could definitely tell that it wasn't killing a dog. "Maybe it's not the details that matter"
@Legend Beast yeah the dog is Gale
Yup. If you've been going to meetings for long enough, AND been a counselor, you've kind of seen it all.

Biker in 1:58 thinking "So, you got some of that meth?"
Self love is important, but first must come redemption.
Redemption is impossible without self acceptance. First comes self acceptance, then a lot of effort into changing, then you slowly start to feel self love. And only after you start to feel self love does redemption start to become a possibility. Also, at that point, redemption loses its purpose because you have become a different person so you don't feel the need to redeem the person you used to be.

The moment Jesse mentioned the Counsellors daughter, that's when he realised he wasn't talking about a dog.
What an actor. You can hear his voice tremble like someone who has ever spoken and about to break down to cry. We’ve all been there.
Even though this was an emotional scene,the way he says this is at 2:06 is hilarious.
Jesse was always truly a good person and this scene truly shows that
Your actions show what kinda of person you are, not your tears afterwards.
Bullshit
OST most of the problems in the show were caused by Jesse actions.
Not really it shows the opposite lol
It shows that he has a fixed sense of guilt and remorse, not that he’s a good person. He harms the people around him and does despicable things and feels regret, but continues to do them. Unlike Walt who would feel no remorse here, Jesse feels remorse but continues to act.
Felt bad for the group counsellor when Jesse brought up his daughter. I also like how he doesn't scorn or condemn Jesse, he just simply says "no". That's all it is.
Even after the 97th time I've seen this show, this scene still gives me goosebumps every time. Never fails.
97th?
Finally, an upload of this scene without music
Just want to throw this out here: the group leader is trying to show them a path into stoicism, since it can offer you great tools to deal with your problems. It can be hard to understand tho, especially if it done in a way like in group therapy, where you want the patients to figure it out by themselves
Nah. This would be closer to Buddhism if anything. But even then, it’s neither. Its just self acceptance.

Jesse felt guilty about the bad choices he made and wanted to take accountability for it , while Walter was blaming everyone but himself
Powerful scene. Group Leader (now) is a good, wise individual doing his best .. but Jesse does have a point about limits of acceptance. Amazing acting throughout.

1:58 the McDonalds employee when someone in line gets mad
In AA people always quote a story from the book that used to be called ”Dr alcoholic addict,” but they changed the title to ”acceptance is the answer.” This scene perfectly destroys the narrative that simply ”acceptance is the answer to all my problems.” It is a quote used out of context of the story and something I absolutely detest. Bravo to the writer of this episode.
This scene is unscripted
Something rather unfortunate for us humans is that we have the tendency of seeing everything as black and white, right and wrong, with no nuances or details.
That sort of comes into play whenever something bad happens to us, we tend to see it as evil instead of tragedic, no matter what. And that makes us judge people, nature, society and even ourselves as bad. When in truth most of the things are more neutral than evil.
Jesse needed to see himself differently from his evil partner (Walter White), not as a dumb punk but as a kid that doesn't need meth to survive or even thrive (while Walt kept lying to himself that he needs to be evil for his family, while he was just doing it for his own pride). Jesse saw his own self as evil and therefore had no motivation to leave that life.
Pinkman never created an excuse for his wrongdoings, he knew they were wrong and he embraced them because his parents made him believe he was destined for doing evil. Heisenberg created a lie to excuse himself into not accepting Gretchen's helping hand because everyone always made him believe that he was destined for greatness and holy things, so he thought that he was not evil and that he making meth and killing kids wasn't evil as well (that is why he feels little to no remorse throughout the show if compared to Jesse).
This kind of intervention tries to change the person's mentality by making them negotiate with themselves that they are neutral, and not the devil spawn nor the holier-than-thou angel.
AA is a sham.
Nobody thinks acceptance is the answer to all problems
@Learned Helpfulness yep, that's called an Echo Chamber.
honestly, this is my favorite scene in the whole show. It does a great job at portaying the shame Jesse feels everyday, and how he's deep down a good guy stuck into the role of someone who gotta play the bad guy. Plus, the acting is top tier, i get chills everytime. The show is a masterpiece but godamn, this scene is summing up what Breaking Bad stands for in such a powerful way
Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul have literally hundreds of moments of outstanding performances, but this right here, this is the best it gets. *The* best acting in either show.

Maybe it's just my interpretation, but I think the counselor understood Jessi wanted to feel that his actions meant something and could affect other people and despite everything, he told him "no" at the end to help him.
Yeah he's telling him no because Jesse is proving his whole "self acceptance is the key" doesn't always work. There are limits.
The line that gets me right in the gut is “so I should” just incredible writing and a great delivery

I’ve tried getting into mad men twice now and I just can’t, I just don’t see what the point of the show is at all? I can’t remember how far I got but it had to be like a decent amount of episodes both times
Just know that at the exact moment this was going on Walt jr was in school daydreaming about a big ole stack of pancakes and a fresh glass of oj
Keep seeing these clips come up on my timeline I think it is a sign I need to rewatch this masterpiece of a show again it's been a few years anyway .
Jesse Pinkman's character development is one of my favorite things in this series.
A lot of it doesn't seem so much that he is changing or developing but that we just get to know him better.
El Camino should have delved more into what this scene was about. I was even hoping the counsellor would make an appearance in the film.
The scene was about Jesse's guilt over killing Gale, and him admitting the original reason he came to the NA meetings was to covertly sell meth to them. The councilor wants acceptance, so to Jesse, who is breaking down mentally, he might as well see if they'll accept they got played, because he's tired of the idea that he should be accepting of the evil in himself.
This was some of the best acting in the show. The emotion was great.
Love how the actors evolved through the series and got excellent at being their characters
Colleen probably wouldn't care if Jesse said he killed an actual guy.
“Hooray for me” - Todd Chavez
Todd is just Jesse before he met Walt.
Walt sucked the joy and innocence out of him.
This scene was nothing short of a masterpiece in acting. Everyone in this scene. And the fact no music was added at all is what sealed the deal. So many scenes get watered down with music and take away some of the brilliance of the moment.
This scene was nothing to me hut customers.
Anyone noticing an inverse correlation between Jesse's intelligence and mental health in this show? It felt like the more depressed he got the smarter he got.
0:20 This hits really hard, Colleen definetly didn't know what Jesse really went through and of course he couldn't admit the truth about killing someone.
However when he expressed himself you could literally see how it eats him from the inside, he is suffering a lot killing Gayle as he never actually did something to Jesse, but Jesse knew it was either him or Walter and Jesse. It really scarred him a lot and I really feel so bad for Jesse 🥺🥺🥺
I read an article that said the guy who plays the counselor actually ran over his daughter with his truck so that he could convey those real emotions into the scene. Jere Burns is so underrated.
Omg
Bravo Vince!
The writing in this show is second to none. The acting somehow is even better. Legendary show.
This the exact moment Pinkman became Jesse The *(Meth Selling)* Dog Bounty Hunter.
Aaron Paul is such a good actor that the pain from his sadness and angriness in that scene is palpable.... Dear god.
THIS IS THE EXACT MOMENT JAMIE LANNISTER PUSHES BRAN OUT THE WINDOW
I really like this scene because it sets a precedent for the difference between "acceptance" and "tolerance," with I think are both very commonly confused in today's society. We all want to be better people, that always demands a certain degree of judging ourselves
God damn, Jere Burns is terrific in his role as the counsellor, but specifically this scene is incredible. His facial expressions...hell, just his eyes completely carry all the emotions.
The added realisation that made Jesse slowly understand that in this journey he was on his own
This episode of Bojack was much less bleak than most of them.
I love the counselor leaned forward like "Waaaait, wait, wait-- how tf do you know that?"
This is some of the best acting in history. Not even an overstatement. This is incredible.
Its crazy how these were uploaded a month ago and already got almost 1 million views.. what a legendary show.
Idk about you guys but I don't think Jesse was talking about dogs here.
His acting is phenomenal in every scene. You can totally feel his pain, his fear and his anger.
Tell that to the hospital scene.
Such respect for Aaron Paul. He plays it to the edge but no further. Such delicate control at this level of intensity.
0:32 on the right is Ben, the kid from Walt's chemistry class who Walt mistakenly hears say, "Is this gonna be on the murder?" in Season 1.
just rewatching the bits of BB just makes my heart ache and wish I could erase my memory and watch it again for the 5th time.
