    I want to know the general opinion on this:

    [SPOILERS AHEAD]

    spoiler

    Was Walter trying to save Jesse from going down a spiral of hard drugs or was he just trying to keep Jesse clean for work?

    The other option is that he is just an ass and he kind of wanted to see her die.

    When I saw this scene I kind of saw him realising both were a big win for him personally which was why the decision was made

    BTW not sure if it's just my client (eternity) but your spoiler tags didn't work

    Edit. Look what just popped up https://feddit.nl/post/19814905

    It is your client, the tag renders correctly on browser and Voyager

    Weird, I'm using eternity (nightly) and it rendered fine

    Possible they haven't updated, or something with your OS or a dependency is different.

    Yet it doesn't work on Sync for Lemmy

    I always inclined myself for the first one. I mean, saving Jesse. But it could be just me trying to still see a human being in WW.

    About the spoiler, i cant see it either. I thought it was a Boost only issue. Will add a better sign for the unspoiled to come.

    IMO Walt saw that he was losing control over Jesse and he didn't like that. He did what he did to Jane in order regain that control. I dont think it was an act of altruism.

    [–] Siegfried 3 points 2 months ago

    I like this take. I think it's much more consistent with the character.

    [–] jqubed 1 points 2 months ago

    Mlem doesn’t render these either

    I think the point was, simply, that there was a clear moral path (albeit a difficult one) and he chose...not that. And someone innocent was harmed as a result.

    He was eliminating a rival, nothing more
