the thing that gets me about the tampa kiss scene is that Ilya immediately sticks his tongue in Shane's mouth. Immediately. Yes I am desirable yes I am in control yes I am not something to be pitied yes you want me please please (still) want me.

1x05: Gray Matter

"Hank compares Walt’s situation to a poker game: 'Let’s face it you were dealt a shit hand.' Interestingly, in the next episode, “Crazy handful of nothin’ “ there’s a highly symbolic poker scene. 'The key is, you gotta hang in there, you gotta keep placing your bets.' – which is actually what Walt/Heisenberg does throughout the show; he doesn’t give up after Tuco. Perhaps that’s why there are more than a few scenes where Walt and Jesse could have quit the business and they decided to continue.

"The foreshadowing air thickens as Hank continues, hoping to change Walt’s decision on surrendering to cancer: '…or you can hold on to your pride and lose the game.' Is that what’s going to happen to Walt in the end? Vince knows! But we’ve seen what Heisenberg’s pride and hubris have brought him so far: lots of power and money, as well as trouble and burden. Maybe that’s why at the end of the episode, Walt decides to wake from the dead and step into the world of crime once again, so that he can keep his pride and stay in the game." – Aria Mohtadi, Breaking Bad Observations

1x05: Gray Matter

Walt: "You've read the statistics sheet, these doctors talking about surviving, one year, two years, like it's the only thing that matters. But what good is it to survive if I'm too sick to work, to enjoy a meal, to make love. For what time I have left, I want to live in my own house, I want to sleep in my own bed. I don't want to choke down 40 or 50 pills every single day, and lose my hair, lie around, too tired to get up, and so nauseated that I can't even move my head. You cleaning up after me. Me... me some um... some dead man, some artifically alive, just marking time... No. And that's how you would remember me. That's the worst part. So... that is my thought process, Skyler... I'm sorry, it's just I choose not to do it."
