#BreakingBad #BrBa #FaceOff
You know how when you kill a chicken, its head gets pulled off and it still walks around? When Gus’s head got blown up, he had his signature reflex to fix his tie, just how a chicken would...
so cool
Wow, nice catch
A chicken terminator wearing a tie? Things start to get surrealistically out of control...
los pollos no cabeza, hermano
yall blow my mind
I love that even after all Gus did to him, Hector still didn’t flip to the DEA.
It was a trap, to get the attention of Gus. WW instructed hector to do it. It was a deal so he can take revenge for his family. After all hector in that condition wants to die already. Remember what Gus told him last time they met. This is his legacy before leaving earth to kill Gus.
Really amazed by the writer of this show, what a really intelligent twist.
Gus and Hector have a form of honor... Walt is new to the game and wins because he has none.
@@D1sc0rd- Actually, Walter plays by the same rules. How many times could he have given up someone to get complete immunity and never does so? Even when his life was in danger.
@@D1sc0rd- Walt never goes to the authorities and rats....
@@kevincos4450 different reasons, he did Not go because of honor, but for other reasons
When gus walks to the nursing home I honestly get chills through my entire body every time. The music, the tension, the suspense, the pov shot. Just brilliant.
Shot like an old western high noon er, face off
It's perfect. A truly classic scene, as well as the faceoff. "A cripple little ratta...".
Plus in a nice touch, the song that plays while Gus waited in the car and then walked into the nursing home for the last time is called “Goodbye” by Apparat. Fitting choice as the show says goodbye to one of it’s best characters.
I thought the music made it obvious this guy was walking to his death
This show is perfect when it comes to everything you mentioned... they can make a scene about grass growing feeling super tense.
Is it Brock? Actually, it's Bmineral.
Pongo underrated comment
Oh my god I actually LOL-Ed at this 👏🏽
Pongo genius
Dammit Hank...
Christ, Marie
Gus stopped last episode in the garage because he was realizing in his head that he didn’t poison the kid, someone else must of. He was thinking about Walt and what he could do in that time
Kermit The Frog I was wondering why the hell he stopped short. That makes perfect sense.
Jack Deth yeah I knew the first time around that it was because of what Jesse said
Damn 🔥🔥🔥
It could also be because he had experiences with Hank trying to track his car by rigging it, so the whole thing was kinda suspicious to him, maybe his car was rigged again
*must have
The actor who plays Gus chose what the character would do if faced with immediate death. Straightening the tie is so classy and very much Gus.
The Lilly of the valley reveal made my heart drop. My chest was pounding waiting for you both to see it and see the realization spread across Nikki’s face!! 😫😫
same... when i saw that, i knew walt was gone, and there is only heisenberg left. he's a monster.
@Joe T
. when you have been beat down most of your life,. and then you see someone similar to you suddenly start fighting back (kicking adversaries in the teeth). it's inspiring. ( Honestly sometimes I think he made up his mind to do all this, during his birthday hand-job, just watching it, made wanna break something).
I was hoping they would stuff all that money into their luggage, and head to the Bahamas.
Spoiler warning extreme caution beyond no this .
I was dissipointed, how quickly some of his friends and family turned on him so completely. At least Skylar, was on his side for a few days.
Mike made a great quote on BCS, that does a decent job of explaining us "Walt addicts" the one about ,
good criminals and bad criminals.
I hate this phone I'm using.
It makes typing more of a negotiation.
I'll have to get back to you, if you have the time and/or interest to continue debating this. I'm not trying to offend or irritate you. Just trying to add some perspective. Have a great weekend.✌️☺️
I had to retype almost every sentence in this comment, I forget what you call this word program, but my smart phone is retarded.
Coolbreeze Productions Awesome comment and you’re completely correct, Walt took back his power (or gained some balls) from being the meek, mild mannered, pushover Science teacher to being a boss (in his eyes.) Sadly, as in every case, hubris (pride) comes before the fall and Walt never saw his destruction creeping up on him until it was too late.
Btw, trying changing your keyboard settings on your phone and disabling your auto correct, that should clear up your typing issues 👍🏽
@@celeste1737
Thank you ☺️
I thought he just froze for a minute with Jane then went hiesen a when he saw the light go from her eyes.
"I won." that moment when skyler realizes he's insane.
Jasmin breaking bad stranger things lmao sooo true
"Who are you talking to right now? who is it you think you see? do you know how much i make a year? i mean, even if i told you you wouldn't believe it. Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work? A business, big enough that it could be listed on the nasdaq goes belly-up, disappears, it ceases to exist without me, no, you CLEARLY don't know who you're talking to so let me clue you in. I am NOT in danger Skyler, I AM THE DANGER. A guy opens his door and gets shot and you think that of me? No, I AM THE ONE WHO KNOCKS."
im pretty sure that was when she realized
@PeterOlds2020 what new walt 💀
Not insane but when hes turned to the dark side
@@skyedge3407 He is clearly insane. He put Hank right back on his trail when Hank was ready to let go, because his egomaniac narcissistic ass couldn't handle the idea that someone else got credit for his "great" deeds.
Yes, Walt poisoned a kid. There is no other line to cross at this point.
It's a shame Gus was killed. Giancarlo Esposito was the villain who set the bar for BB.
there's one more line he can cross... he can take out his own family. that would be even worse.
The plant is poisonous but not fatal in small amounts he probably new statistics of the kids survival and took a risk but he still was sincerely relieved that the kid made it.
All villains must come to an end other wise the show wouldnt be the greatest
How did he poison brock?
Marcos Mota / thats another story for another what if
NOW I understand the scene in the previous episode when Walt is spinning the revolver on the table and it points to a certain potted plant. Doh!
when i first saw that i thougth that it meant that he still had a chance to live because the gun pointed at him twice and then away from hib but you could be right
Oh yea, I completely forgot about that scene. I got caught up in everything else that was happening and didn't even think about it. If I remembered, it would have clicked much earlier that Walt was responsible for poisoning Brock.
DAMNNNNNN
That’s why it’s so perfect because no one thought of it
The first time (I think) this moment has graced YT reaction channels and its so worth it. RIP Gustavo Fring you were one of the best villains ever.
I'll drink to that.
Villain? Idk about that... There's no hero or villain in this story, I feel like...
Kamran true...The way this show gives flesh to its characters is insane...no good or bad,also all good and bad... u just end up loving and hating all of it.
Certainly some characters fall in more grey areas and they’re certainly more than two dimensional but for me Gus is not a good guy or a hero. Even when justified. Nor is he all bad. But I would categorize him as a villain. At least thats my two cents. Feel free to disagree 💪🏾
@@ksiddiqui8 I agree. They are all monsters we have come to know and care for but shouldn't. *Cheers*
Fact: In the previous episode, Bryan Cranston believed that Walt didn't poison Brock until he got the script for this episode.
I've phrased this before, but this gave Walter acting/bullshitting talent _equal to Bryan Cranston._
"Isn't Hector going to ring his bell a bunch of times?" Yes, yes he is
I was thinking the same thing! 😂😂 Like wait for it.... Haha
I always found it funny that none of the nurses noticed him ringing the bell. The nurse earlier in the episode came in almost immediately after he started ringing. Maybe Gus left out his fried chicken to the other end of the building.
@@aramfingal5180 The sound was dampened because Walter wired it to the bomb.
I always wonder why Gus' henchman didnt stopped Hector from ringing the bell just because they know he uses it to call for help.
(zoom in on Lilly of the Valley plant)
Nikki (🤯🤯🤯): So that means...Walt...is a BARATHEON?!
love it!!!!!!!!!
AHAHAHAHAHA I LOVE IT
Omg best comment!
LMFAO
Jaaaaaaaaaaa
Remember Walt's a chemist. He knew exactly how much to give the kid to make him sick but not kill him.
He's a chemist, not a doctor
@@pedrobatista2529 A chemist that meticulously makes drugs.
@Constantinos Aspris calm down lol, it was not that big of a deal
@@extraordinarygamer937 Constantino's is not wrong. Y'all are rooting for a murderer. You should go into the show with the same moral compass that you would have outside of it. Otherwise you're no better than those acting it out on screen. It may be fiction but you'd be surprised how much of an impact TV shows have on people's psyche.
@@TheDivineCallingofJesusChrist it's insane how many people think walt was justified in poisoning a child, lethal dose or not 😭😭😭
Gus allowed his desire for vengeance cloud his judgment. An unusual thing for a character as cerebral as him, but so goes human nature. The Walt/Gus chess match provided outstanding writing in this season, a narrative that at times resembled a psychological thriller rather than a crime drama. An incredible achievement by Vince Gilligan and his team cementing themselves as elite storytellers.
One of the greatest episodes in the history of TV. What a finale! And it’s still going to get better!
YPlease part 1 And part 2 in every chapter in season 5
Entradas Vips lol that would be amazing but I doubt they would do it
Swank 47 they did for the last 4 episode of GoT
Entradas Vips Or... (and hear me out) check out their Patreon for full length reactions. They sometimes drop those hours before the YT release.
Animusswtor _ thing is, I would like to see them do it for all 16 episodes lol
It also hits differently when you realize this was filmed as if it were the series finale because when it was filmed the series hadn't been renewed for a 5th season. The lily of the valley reveal was put in during post production.
Oh damn, for real? Had no idea about that.
Giancarlo who plays Gus, says that at the end of 412 walking to the car, Gus kept thinking about what Jesse said "the boy was poisoned", over and over. ANd luckily right as he got the car thinking that, he began to recognize the hand of Walt in play
Mystery solved.
Breaking bad is the only show good enough, where in an episode where a guys face gets blown off, flowers are the most mind blowing thing .
I just love the pure shock that Gus has before dying. No "curse you Walter" or "well played", just the first noise that one can get out. 😨😱"HAAAWW"!💥💀
Lol "curse you Walter" Suddenly Gus has supervillain dialogue.
But seriously, he doesn't respect Walt anymore, so it definitely wouldn't make sense to compliment him with "well played"
Lilly of the valley reveal is the biggest jaw dropping moment ever!
"Did you just bring a bomb into a hospital?" -Says the man who drove a meth lab to the airport.
Just goes to show how much Jesse has grown over the course of the show. Walt has changed as well, but I'm not sure you'd call what's happened to him "growth".
How is it comparable, 1 could kill dozens of people and one could at worst get them caught.
I think you’d call it transformation
Jesse is growth
Walt is decay
@@survivor45661 I really like that point; it shows how Walt's goals and maturity were always aimed towards selfish interest, but Jesse's maturity has grown very outwards; one can't believe the other would put them in risk of being found, the other can't believe he'd put other people's lives at risk.
LOL
Theory to why Gus was emotional before going in: He's about to murder Hector and he's thinking about his partner who Hector murdered and finally getting justice for him.
I think his already took revenge he didn't want to kill hector cause he wanted him to live miserably. But ya killing him might als satisfy him
Wow, Hector was 2 for 2 on the Chicken Brothers
I did not remember this episode was called Face Off.... Hah.
*Ding*
Wow, that was just so many levels of puns there
This aired before reactions were as big a deal. I don't think anyone paid as much attention to episode names back before reactions. I know I didn't, aside from That 70s Show, Friends, or How I Met Your Mother. Mainly sitcoms.
minski76 damn!
I know right? They guessed the conclusion super quickly for not knowing the plot of the episode. I was impressed.
There is no more Walter White only Heisenberg remains😈
I won
Well he’s dead to but whatever
I won.
We're in the endgame now.
E lmaoooo
Let this sink in, Steve says it’s definitely in the top 2 ever shows with GOT. This show actually gets even better in season 5!
I physically got very excited when he said its in his top 2 without seeing season 5 yet.
@@gandhialwaysleavesanonion679 same
BrBa is defintely better than GOT, but it's understandable if Nikki&Steven never say it after watching season 5. They watched GOT first and the first show always have special place in people's heart.
Akram Lakamora I agree. It was painful for me to admit to myself that BB was better than the walking dead. For me the walking dead was superb from season 1 - 5 but I finally had to admit that BB was superior. For me GOT is great and probably in my top 5
GoT - BB - The Expanse - Fargo S01
Holy grail.
The walking dead crew helped with the look of gus' face!
Caz The Wolf Yape
@Caz The Wolf Yape
@Caz The Wolf Specifically Greg Nicotero. He did the fx work on Gus for it. He's a master at what he does.
@Caz The Wolf Both from amc, also both in the same universe as producers confirmed hehe
HTYY • the walking dead and breaking bad universe are connected so it makes sense, because in the first season of walking dead Daryl had a blue bag of meth and talked about the drug dealer that said bitch a lot like Jessie
Notice how every move gus have done has been calculated and planned he never lets his pride get in the way but when he went to see hector it was because of his pride and it got him killed! Amazing writing
It pleases me and most likley all the people who sugested this show when i heard Steven say that brba is easily #2 for him.
I appreciated when steven said he wont compare GOT and BRBA because they are so different
I wasn't convinced for sure that BB was the goat either until season 5 unfolded. Season 5 is an absolute masterwork construction of filmmaking. It is one of the greatest things ever put on a big or small screen, and bc it's the end of the show and connected to everything that has transpired for the first 4 seasons, and BB is one big, epic movie, it makes BB as a whole the same.
It is my belief that Gus *needing to know* what Hector told the DEA, over his better instincts, is what got him killed. I also believe it's why he sat in that car for so long - it's because he knew, deep down, that he was making a mistake by going in, but he couldn't help himself.
Wow! I never thought about it that way i think you’re right
@@angie-tq4ew Yeah, that's what I was thinking while I was watching this.
"This is most likely a trap and I really, really, really shouldn't go in there. But if I don't Hector will have won... so I'm going in."
When was the last time you guys PAUSED during a show LOL
Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 10 😄
@@BenSlashes Lol, "that means... Jon isnt a bastard... HE"S A BARATHEON!!!" Hahahaha
Winds of winter got i think... i think that they really only do it in unique "wow" situations lol
"HE'S A BARATHEON!!!"
Think they paused quite a few times on Haunting of Hill House as well haha
In the previous episodes I felt satisfied when Gus killed Unlce Tio's friends. In this episode I am oddly satisfied that Tio got his revenge. That just shows how good this show is.
“Uncle Tio” lol
Gus didn’t die...
He’s just the greatest Terminator cosplayer of all time
Flame of Udûn oh now I get why people call him the terminator 😂😂
LMAO
Gus fixing his tie before collapsing shows how composed and precise he is even at the moment of death. His attention to details is on the next level. Sadly he missed it this time.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
That was so perfect for the character. His desire for revenge blinded him from seeing the trap
The true foreshadowing of the teddy bear finally revealed!
Not that they had any intentions along this line way back in Season 2, but the writers sure aren't going to miss a chance to do such an epic callback when the opportunity presents itself.
When? I think I missed it
Edit: oh is it Gus eye that fell off?
@@plbbaa Half of Teddy Bear's face is messed up, foreshadowing Gus' faceoff.
Brian Gonigal indeed. If you have the blu rays and listened to the audio commentaries they don’t make the connection because they didn’t intend to have one.
Watching this the first time, and knowing the importance of colour in this show, I was 100% certain it was the foreshadowing of Jesse's demise. PINK teddy bear /Jesse PINK - man
Season 5: When you realize you were never actually watching a TV show to begin with, but instead a 46 hour epic crime flick.
It's amazing how Gus's death isn't even the most shocking moment in the episode.
Where do you go from here now? That’s the same question my gf made when she watched this episode, but she had no idea, and you’re in the same situation, prepare yourselves for the best season of breaking bad.
Time to tie loose ends down and deal with the fallout of the chicken guy's demise, not the easiest of tasks, one can imagine...
Now comes the long denoument.
Walt was really relieved about Brock surviving. Just like he feels really bad for hurting Jessie when he didn't help Jane.
I don't know if you can really say that for sure. Was he just acting for Jesse's benefit?
@@briangonigal3974 When he cried about Jane, nobody saw him. In the fly episode he tells Jesse that he wishes he would have died right before Jane died. Jesse is family for Walt.
Ili Boxic Is Walt the same person he was back then? When Jane died he cried at first, but he hardened up pretty quick. By the time of fly exhaustion & Jesse’s roofie caused the mask to slip and a bit of old Walt to show through, but that’s been happening less & less frequently.
@@briangonigal3974 Walt changed but this didn't change his feelings about Jesse. Walt always wanted to protect Jesse as well as Hank. This never changed. Jesse&Hank were Walt's weakness and his demise. He was only able to protect one of them but always wanted to save both.
I think it’s more that he has to see himself as the good guy. If he ACTUALLY cared he… wouldn’t poison a kid.
When for the first time i saw the lilly of the valley reveal i was shocked for a long time because i believed him that he didnt poison Brock. At that moment I understood what Walt was really capable of 🤯💣🌺🛎️
Yes, capable of being the genius he is!
finally , i was refreshing channel over and over again just for that reaction
Same😂
Haha me too
Me2
Please part 1 And part 2 in every chapter in season 5
Same :D This rate they may finish GoT and BB at the same time I think.
"Until you travel to that place you can't come back, where the last painting's gone and all that's left is black" Love the songs lyrics at the end by Danger Mouse and Norah Jones, fits perfectly for Walter from White to Black.
I've just realized that the explosion has been foreshadowed in "Crawl Space" when Hector watching the TV.
Mind...blown, lol. Good catch.
It also was during S02, with the pink teddybear in the pool, with half its face toasted up
When Gus is in the elevator after leaving his DEA questioning in "Hermanos", there's the floor signal bell in the background that dings a few times before he looks up at the camera.
in the first episode of the season, towards the beginning of the episode, in Gale's apartment on a shelf it shows a model face with half of its face missing, just like Gus'
Steven's really smart. He figured out the bomb before hand. He fixated on the spinning gun knowing it had deeper meaning. And immediately figured out how the ricin cigarette was lifted from the pack. Well done 👍
I just want to let you two know that you are the only reactors that I genuinely get excited about when you post a new reaction! Thanks for making my day better!
amazing!!! thank you for the comment.
It’s been 2 years now and I noticed something ever so small that I’m sure has been debunked but when Walt says, “I won.” It seems he meant it literally as only HE won. Jesse, Gus, anyone in his way had lost and he was on top. It wasn’t a “We won.” Walter had defeated his enemies and had all the control.
I love how Steven said "can you guys like hug and kiss and make up and be besties again".
Had that same reaction.
“I don’t think Walt gives a FUCK about Brock” 😂😂 The truest statement so far on these reactions
Isn't it said that chickens can survive for a bit and still be walking after decapitation (hence the saying, "Running around like a chicken with its head cut off")? I wonder if Gus, aka The Chicken Man, standing up and walking a few steps before dying, is a nod to that 🤣
Gus is always so calm, calculated and collected. The one time he let's his emotions get the better of him his face gets blown off. This show is amazing.
Wow! That’s one of the best finales ever. Great job editing this too. Keeping everything that happened under 10 mins was probably hard to do. 🛎💣🌸🤯
Thank you Jay!!!!! I work so hard on these edits, comments about it make me very happy. It was very hard to do, like it is with almost every BrBa episode... there is always so much great stuff, I hate to cut any of it out.
Nikki & Steven React in the film industry we call it, kill your darlings...
Love the music that was played as Gus approached the nursing home. Same music used in the show Dark. Gives me goosebumps.
The song is called "Goodbye" and it is played over Gus' final walk. Perfect choice.
Remember when Francesca was shredding paper in Saul's office,she was shredding the school timetable of Brocks class.
lol no.

@@okohiaj it has been screenshotted and proved they were school timetables
@@gameofthrows9357 Weird that you would keep this up when anyone can literally check and see youre lying. Oh well... you do you, buddy.
This is genuinely one of the best reactions I’ve seen for any show. A perfect portrait, to how mind blown I was after watching this seasons finale. Thank you for starting this show, and thank you for all your hard work editing these videos... onward to one of the finest television accomplishments of all time! Season 5 of Breaking Bad.... nothing can prepare y’all for what comes next..
Sebastian!!!! Thank you for the comment and gotta thank all the people who watch us for demanding us to watch it. It's an amazing show. And thank you for the editing comment, I appreciate that so much. I do put a shit ton of effort and work into making these videos as good as they can be.
You guys are lucky that don't have to worry about the last season ruining the greatness of the show to this point! We were all worry about it when when watching live! Season 5 is such a masterpiece!
When you play the chess of crime, you win or you die...
The thing I love about this show is how it can be unpredictable and still make perfect sense. When I first watched that Lilly of the Valley twist I was speechless for a good 10 minutes. BB's soundtrack is always worth noting as well. Greatest show I've ever seen and I doubt that will change anytime soon.
The song in end of this episode is “Black” by Norah Jones. If you listen to, or read the lyrics to the song it’s chilling and very symbolic to Walt’s character and his change over time since season 1.
Fooled them
Hoping to seem like a slayer of evil but the product of greed and
It's not a mask, so be honest with me
We can't afford to ignore that I'm the disease
I don't think any lyrics could possibly describe the ending of this season better. It seriously covers the whole deal.
It only gets better. That's why Breaking Bad is the best show of all time. It takes the bar and raises it season after season.
Yep...so true.
Do you guys rememeber the Pink Bear in the pool with half the face burned off?
Gus Fring. Forever a legend.
Gus had to have "two face"s to survive in the underworld for so long: The warm, friendly, and courteous fast food chicken restaurant owner, and the cold, ruthless, and calculating drug lord and killer who would take out his enemies in the worst way to send messages.
Walt also realizes that he is going to need to have 2 faces if he is going to reach his goals in dealing with the underworld, and the pink teddy bear signifies that to him, while also serving as a reminder to us that's what he had to do with Jane: the family man and teacher part of him would never harm anyone and wants the best for people, but then there's him, a man coping with the underworld has to be ruthless. And the bear represents Jane since it was on the mural on her wall above her bed, at least imo, lol.
Man... been waiting for this one lol 🛎️💣💮🤯
Fun fact: Greg Nicotero, who does all the special effects and makeup for the walkers etc on TWD, was behind pulling off Gus's two-face situation. Guy's a legend
You guys are in for a treat. Season 5 is monumental. Just insane television.

I'm so happy someone else separates GOT and Breaking Bad from all the other TV shows. I agree completely. Even though TWD has a special place in my heart, GOT and BB are in the league above.
Hanzmere Sonofmeher Seconded. And TWD is based on graphic novels. Breaking Bad is 100% original writing, which tips it into one-of-a-kind. Best series ever. I’m so glad I own the boxed set!
@@sarahzentexas Not to mention the incredible acting by the cast. The direction etc. It all fit like a glove.
@AJ The last 3 seasons are still an incredible achievement in tv production despite the writing taking a hit in quality. My list is
1)Breaking Bad
2)Sopranos
3)Mad Men
4)Game of Thrones
5)Lost
The walking dead isn’t close to this but the recent episode from Sunday was the most game of thrones shit the walking dead has pulled off even though it came from the comics, I have a feeling the S9 finale and season 10 might redeem what it became in the last couple years
@AJ Ikr? GOT was going to be the best thing on tv when the first 4 seasons aired, but now it's not that bad but mediocre tbh.
YES! Steve, you summed it up perfectly - all the theories as to how Walt orchestrated and manipulated Jessie. Spot on. Also, GoT & BB Best shit on TV... and you still have Better call Saul to watch!
I’m not usually into reaction videos but when it comes to breaking bad, I just can’t help myself. Season 4 is incredible. Some of my favorite episodes of television ever, but season 5 somehow still manages to up the intensity of the show. It never settles down until it’s over and it’s beautiful. Can’t wait to watch season 5 with you, even more of some of the greatest television you will ever see awaits. I hope you both enjoy it.
I get so much joy out of watching people watching something that i like watching, and you guys are the best at watching stuff that i watch, keep it up
If you think Season 4 was good, just you wait...
*Fun Fact:* The woman who plays Walt's next door neighbor is Vince Gilligan's mother, Gail Gilligan.
*Fun Fact from SE2 in the same vein:* The young blonde girl in the school auditorium after the plane crash in the Season 2 finale, who asks "why would god allow all those innocent people to die" was Bryan Cranston's daughter.
You may have guessed right about the literal meaning of "Face-off" and about the wheelchair being rigged....but you didn't see the " Lilly of the Valley"....did you...hahaha....here lies the genius behind this episode...the real masterstroke by Walt that set in motion everything.....best TV Show ever.... Period
Unlike, say, the plane crash at the end of Season Two, which there is NO WAY anyone could have put together beforehand that that's what all the "737-Down-Over-Abq" teasers were leading up to, there was *just enough* given away here that someone who happened to be very knowledgeable about horticulture *and* was playing close attention when Walt was playing Spin The Revolver could have fully caught on to what was happening as soon as Andrea called Jesse to say that Brock was poisoned. It really was right there in front of us the whole time.
the swerve of having Walt actually poising Brock was amazing... Did not see that coming at all. The bomb in the wheel chair was kind of obvious and I assume they did it that way because they had a bigger bombshell coming.
@@NikkiStevenReact, i'm always amazed by how much you work out before it happens. Once you've finished this, maybe take a look at "Better Call Saul". It's also superb, but quite different. Very much its own show.
@@davidmontoute2074 Season 4 was like watching Breaking Bad. Superb indeed!
@@abigail3383, i think what it has in common with BB is that improves with every season. And yes, Season 4 of BCS was spectacular. Such an emotional punch was delivered.

Just got my wisdom teeth and pre molars out and sitting in bed sleepy and bored af...just what I needed‼️😂😂😍😍
The makeup of Gus Fring's Face was done by walking dead's makeup artists, that's why it looked so similar to that show and it was dope.
Weve all been waiting for this reaction since you guys started lol
I don't know if it's strange, but I find myself shaking while I watch your reaction, just little constant shivers, because I am so excited. I am only a few minutes into the reaction, and ... This, and my kids are the only things that matter today, and I can't tell you how happy I feel right now. You bring so much joy, on a day like this. This is just words, written on a keyboard, but I mean it so much. Back to the reaction!
Elisabeth Larsen Same for me, these BB reactions make my day!
Elisabeth!!!!! Thank you for this comments... this kind of stuff makes all of this hard work so worth it. You rock!!! Thank you for the support!!!!
Maybe you're having spontaneous orgasms.
@@nostalgicbliss5547 Every thought you have, does not need to be put into words. This is inappropriate.
I’m a new fan and just wonder why the two of you are looking at different TV’s? I know it’s probably been asked and answered a zillion times, but I don’t have the patience to read through the thousands of comments. lol
Walt's a chemist. He knew exactly how much to give the kid to make him sick but not kill him.
Walter's ability to manipulate and even understand what others are likely doing and going to do makes him someone you don't want to mess with. Gus's mistake was going after him and his family and probably even underestimating him.
Gus’s problem was completely underestimating Walter. He didn’t think Walter could catch him in his trap and he did. Walter got him right where he wanted. Guss emotion got him killed
A big part of Walters success is his luck. He shouldnt have known that Gus had a grudge against Hector, which is why Gus didnt even consider the possibility that Hector would be booby trapped. Of course Walter being able to come up with a plan and analysis a situation benefits him a TON too. He actually has a lot of the qualities and traits Gus does
When you said it's "thee end of an era" and how it was about gus killing hector. Now watch it again and you'll realise his walk with the music was signalling his end and our end of an era watching this brilliant man, gustavo Fring
That moment with Gus... Man, what a fucking way to go. I say this too often, but yeah, this was again one of the best episodes of the best show ever on TV.
And so after this episode we begin the greatest season in the history of television
AGHHH maaan Season 5 episode 1 here we goooo!!! Thursday, the start of the greatest episode and season to ever hit television...🙌🏼🙌🏼
14:29 this music is also the intro music of a tv-series (german Netflix production) called "Dark".
Vince Gilligan himself used the analogy of a virtual game of chess between Walt and Gus during the entire season 4.
🛎️💣🌼🤯
Just a heads up:
Season 5 is within the territory of No Country for Old Men when it comes to cinematic beauty.
I think the reason for Gus's "spidey sense" in Ep 12 is that he might have guessed that Walt poisoned Brock to lure Jesse out and therefore to lure Gus out to a vulnerable place. I'm sure he found the timing of the sick child odd. But he could never have guessed that not only did Walt poison Brock, but Walt managed to convince Jesse that Gus was the one who poisoned him.
The moment Gus is walking to kill salamanca, the music is the main theme soundtrack of Dark, is a hell of a show, you should watch too
that's possibly the best real-looking explosion I've ever seen.
You guys are my top 3 fav reaction channels. You just get what you’re watching and pay attention to the details and your reactions are priceless.
season 5 is undoubtedly the greatest season in TV's history, it's on a league of it's own
It was a pure joy watching you react to this one!you guys are hilarious and smart! And Yes Steven Breaking Bad is one the greatest of all times! 😂😊
The moment I realised Walt would poison a child to manipulate Jesse into helping him is the moment I stopped hating to love him but started plain hating him and couldn't wait to see him go.
@Nikki & Steven React
-- It's worth re-watching Episode 12 now, with the knowledge that Walt manipulated Jesse. What a great storyline.
Hell yeah, watching it the second time, knowing that not only did Walt manipulate Jesse, leading him by the nose the WHOLE ENTIRE TIME, even from the episode prior when walt pulled Jesse's revolver and smashing it into his own head, it's like watching two entirely different episodes. I watched those two eps several times from each viewpoint, and the more you realize what's going on ACTUALLY, it's like watching two different episodes. This walter white is mos def not the same walt from before, when there was no Heisenberg.
earthandairandrain apparently Bryan didn’t even know the truth about Walt’s actions until filming Face Off. The writers made sure he didn’t know so he would be absolutely convincing when Jesse confronted him about it in End Times. As far as Bryan knew, Walt was telling Jesse the truth.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
And the realization at the very end... 🛎💣💮🤯
I saw this whole season as a parallel of Goethe's "Faust" - but instead of God and Satan competing for the soul of Doctor Faust, in Breaking Bad it was a fight between two devils.
Been waiting so long for this episode. I knew it would blow your minds. Best reaction ever!!
I'm currently on season 7 of Dexter, and it does not even come close to the greatness of Breaking Bad.
🛎💣🌸🤯
I think Walt knew Brock dying was a possibility, that's why he seemed genuinely relieved when Jesse said he was going to be okay. But Brock dying was a risk Walt was willing to take, which says EVERYTHING about him at this point.
Maybe, but not so sure bc think read somewhere that Lily of Valley is not lethal but just gets people sick, in which case Walt was just acting a little bit, although still think he was relieved that Brock was recovering because he wants Jesse focused and feeling better and also because he does want the kid to be well asap. He didn't really want to do it, but he saw he had no choice in order to get Jesse to start working with him to take down Gus...Someone discussed Lily of Valley before and said it isn't lethal, but could be wrong.
oh man season 5 is gonna be great for you guys
RIP Gale's coffeemaker.
14:45 Gus was probably tearing up because he was remembering how Hector killed his partner years ago.
All that time building up the tension between Gus and the Cartel in Better Call Saul, ask the tactics played by both sides and throughout the season with Gus finally being the one in charge, taking out the Cartel leaders, avenging his old partner, having his super lab built and running like clockwork... Finally being the a true kingpin with nothing in his way....
All for it to be ruined by a dying high school chemistry teacher and his "junkie" partner in a matter of, I believe, a few months.
You nailed it, Huell swapped Jesse's cig pack at Saul's office. He's a pickpocket, that's what he does best.
