Grilled.


The beginning of this episode starts with Hank talking to the DEA about finding Tuco. Hank goes over his background and record with drugs. They found one of his fingerprints at the scene of the junkyard crime where his men were found killed. After Hank leaves, he gets a phone call from Skylar about Hank missing. Hank, and his friend with the police department go over the house to find out anything they could about Hank missing. After Skylar says he was upset that night and received a phone call right before we went missing, in which Hank tried to look at Walter’s call history and didn’t find anything. Hank tells his friend, the detective, that Walter must have had a second phone.
Tuco is shown destroying Walter and Jessie’s phone in the desert while they are in the trunk of the car. Tuco pulls them both out and takes them into a house in the middle of nowhere.
Skylar and Marie are shown passing “missing person” posters all over; handing them out to everyone they see. Marie eventually brings up the stolen tiara issue but Skylar refuses to talk about it at that moment.
While Tuco, Walter, and Jessie enter the house, there is an older man in a wheel chair, who is Tuco’s uncle, seems to be unable to speak so he communicated by ringing a bell. Tuco proceeds to make Walter and Jessie empty out their pockets and when they do, we see the meth that Walter has poisoned, putting it on the table, hoping that Tuco would take a hit of it. Tuco gets upset about the DEA and mentions that he needs to get high. He sees the bag and smells it; he refuses to take it because the smell of it was repulsive so he takes his own. As Tuco is cooking, Walter and Jessie try to figure out how to take Tuco down (saying these things in front of his uncle). Walter thinking of putting the meth in Tuco’s food. When they sit down, Walter successfully places the meth in his food, but as he goes to eat, his uncle starting ringing his bell, distracting him from eating it. His uncle eventually knocked the food on the floor and the plan fails. Tuco beings up how his cousins are on their way to take them to Mexico to get away from the DEA and to cook in Mexico but they refuse to because of “their responsibilities.” His uncle communicates to Tuco that he doesn’t trust Walter or Jessie and Tuco finds out that they are up to something so he starts beating Jessie and while Walter is admitting that they were trying to poison him, Jessie knocks him over the head with a rock and shooting him. As they try to get away, he see a car pulling up (who they think is Tuco’s cousins) so they hide and it turns out to be Hank who tracked Jessie’s car to question him about Walter’s disappearance. As Hank gets out of the car, he finds Tuco and they begin to shoot at each other, eventually hank kills him. As Walter finally figuring out that it was Hank, Walter and Jessie both run off into the desert. 
One thing that stood out to me, that wasn't necessarily a theme was "the lost." The disappearance of Walter brought out an urgency in the family to find him. They all seems to do everything they could to figure out where Walter was and what happened to him. It reminded me of how God has the urgency to seek out the lost and how we are also apart of the family of God, which makes it our responsibility to have that urgency as well to find these people and "bring them home" so to speak. There are many passages in the bible when it is referring to "the lost" and its always talking about finding them or seeking them out. The importance and urgency is present in those passages, and that is what should be done while we seek the lost as well.
