Season two, episode one begins with a replay of the last drug deal with Tuco. When it’s over, Walter is going over his financial plan for his family out loud, adding up everything and making sure there is enough if he dies. As Walter and Jessie try to leave the junk yard after the deal, Tuco is driving at a very fast speed, going head on to Walter and Jessie. One of his men that he beat badly was having a seizure and was angrily and panicking asking Walter and Jessie what was wrong with him but he ends up dying at that moment. Tuco then asks his other man to “get rid of him.” He ends up hiding him under a stack of cars in the junk yard.
Later, Walter gets home and seems really out of it, searching the TV channels to see if there is anything on what just happened. At this time Skylar is trying to get Walter’s attention but he cant seem to hear her. When she finally gets his attention, Walter is forceful on Skylar and she has to fight him off in order for him to listen to her. Realizing what he had done, he runs outside, and she explains to him that she knows he is scared and frustrated, but he cant keep taking out on her.
Jessie on the other hand buys a gun in fear of Tuco coming after him. Walter and Jessie talk about what happened at the junk yard and they both decide to kill Tuco before he kills them.
While that is going on, Hank finds more evidence of Walter and Jessie’s business. They find the surveillance video of them stealing the barrel at the factory but Hank still doesn’t know that Walter is a part of it.
After Walter and Jessie discuss what to do, Walter realizes he is being watched at home. He ends up spending the entire night watching over the house to make sure Tuco didn’t make a move to kill him or his family.
Later, Walter comes up with an idea to kill Tuco without using a gun. He tells Jessie about caster beans which are very poisonous beans. They both decide to use this method to kill Tuco so they use the beans in the process of cooking and decide to give it to Tuco telling him “its a new product” that they want him to try out.
Skylar tells hank that Marie has a stealing problem. Hank tells Marie that he knew about it and she is getting help but the family needs to “support her.” Skylar has a freak out telling Hank that she is the pregnant one with a husband who has cancer and Marie is the one needed support?
Later, Hank calls Walter about the conversation between him and Skylar but makes a joke about the crime scene he found which happened to be at the junk yard. He found two of Tuco’s men dead. One under the car, and the other one that was trying to get rid of the body. His arms were smashed by the cars collapsing on him from hiding the body and bled out.
Walter and Jessie get even more scared because they think Tuco killed the other guy too and they believe he is after them next. Walter runs home to protect his family and to hide the money in another spot and Jessie does the same with his money.
Walter is at the point of so much fear, he is about to tell Skylar everything that has been going on but gets interrupted by a phone call that he ignores. He then walks to the living room and notices a car pulled up to his house. He goes outside without tell Skylar anything and it is Jessie and Tuco. Tuco has a gun on Jessie and tells Walter to get in the car then they drive away.
One of the small themes that I notices was how we react to anger or to situations that may throw us off guard in any way. One example being with Marie when she is leaving her house, she is arguing with Hank and the kid next door is playing with his remote control car and it keeps hitting Marie's tire of her car. When she leaves, she purposely runs over his car and destroys it. Another example would be when Jessie gets scared about Tuco killing his own men. Out of fear, Jessie buys a gun to keep himself safe and to kill if it came down to it. In James 1:19 is says "My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry." In Marie's case, she wasn't very good at listening to the care of her husband or sister, she refused to admit that she had a problem at all and everyone became angry at it. Skylar choose to attack her when she found out she has a problem instead of really try to figure out the "why" behind it. She became very angry at her and held it against her. We should always be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger.
