Damn. I wish i didnt have to wait until next week..

I had this discussion with someone earlier. When Gus was standing by the pool he popped some pill. Just before giving everyone drank the poison. I assume that was something to coat his stomach to keep the poison from absorbing into his blood before he could puke it up. Anyone else agree?

Yep, possibly activated carbon pills, just enough to absorb the poison until he could vomit.

From wiki - "Activated carbon is used to treat poisonings and overdoses following oral ingestion.
It is thought to bind to poison and prevent its absorption by the gastrointestinal tract. In cases of suspected poisoning, medical personnel administer activated charcoal on the scene or at a hospital's emergency department. Dosing is usually empirical at 1 gram/kg of body mass (for adolescents or adults, give 50–100 g), usually given only once, but depending on the drug taken, it may be given more than once. In rare situations activated charcoal is used in Intensive Care to filter out harmful drugs from the blood stream of poisoned patients. Activated charcoal has become the treatment of choice for many poisonings, and other decontamination methods such as ipecac-induced emesis or stomach pumping are now used rarely."

Mike removes the necklace from Don Eladio's neck. Why does he do that?

i am going to go out on a limb and say that mike is going to be left behind in mexico..... dead..... and perhaps he will have Don Eladio's necklace on his person when he is discovered by mexican authorities.... this information might help aid the DEA in tracking down Eladio and his capos' murderer(s).......

Mike dying in this episode will be shitty because he was a good character on this show... i really liked the dudes attitude... his death will obviously pave the way for jesse to do the job.... but is jesse capable of the shit mike was capable of? Its hard to say... this is all shit made up in my head, but ya never know... its def. something to ponder...


and as far as gus dying? he was shown alive and well in next weeks preview.....sorry if i spoiled...

^ good point.... ricin or whatever it is is supposed to take a few days if i recall.. plus i dont think it would mix in too well with the tequila...

either way, shits hittin the fan

anoter theory: i think that spanish dude (tyrus kitt), gus's new henchman that replaced victor is a chemist in training... it is quite possible that HE is the one who mixed the poison for gus...u watch!

Major significant development: Gustavo Fring sees that Jesse's blue meth is only 96.2% pure. Gale told Gustavo that he could guarantee 95% purity and that Walt's RV cook was 99+%, an inexact number as the purity was so high the test couldn't be certain. Not a stretch to assume cooking in a badass lab like the laundry lab has bumped that purity up even more.

So Walt still has value to Gus.

Also, I think the DEA gets ahold of that video of the mexico cook demo. Doubtful but I wonder if Mr. Fring's face is on it. Jesse's definitely is.

Next episode, I hope there is a scene of Gus visiting the old man prisoner to update him on developments..

That was so fukin bad ass...

Who's your Daddy now? Jesse has earned himself the true respect of Gus now. You see how Gus luved it when Jesse was talkin down to that chemist and their crew Jesse demanded respect and got it, he also gave proof he can't cook as good as Walt but he can cook just a touch better or equal to Gail.

They have the cook on tape and those guys aren't dead so that video will come back to haunt, or maybe Gus has or had a solution like a mole?


Lil Wayne i agree that Gold will also come back, you could bo onto something. i will feel bad too when Mike goes but we know he will.

Ole Ted's colours shine.

Yeah wondering who made the poison too... Could have been Mike though - a quick acting poison like that, somewhat less sophisticated than the one Walt made, may have been within his means to acquire from his network of fellow fixers.

I imagine it taken as proof that Gus was the one who killed the Don. Mike doesn't seem like the type to randomly pocket stuff, so getting that necklace must have been pretty high up on his to-do list.

The Don got got! It's funny how he looked more younger now than in the flash back 20+ years ago.

Jesse looks set for a big promotion.

Skylar better clean up her mess with Ted pronto.

Great episode. Jesse really came through this time, I'm sure Gus won't forget it
