As the Whites leave, Walt gives his in-laws a DVD of his "confession." Playing it at home, Hank and Marie discover they are being blackmailed. Walt's "confession" states that Hank masterminded the Heisenberg empire and forced Walt to cook meth for him.
As we later find out, the tape is indeed a confession, but a fake one Walt has created in order to stop Hank from reporting him to the DEA. It's brilliant, manipulative, and totally unexpected — in other words, exactly the type of thing Walter White has perfected over the course of five and a half seasons.
Skyler's blue represents loyalty and peace, while Schrader's red represents violence and anger. Partners who are loyal to Walter White receive money (represented by green, a mixture of blue and yellow), while those who oppose him are met with violence (represented by orange, a mixture of red and yellow).
Then after fighting off the cousins (and the subsequent drab/pastel colors of recovery and depression), he slowly gains his color back after he re-involves himself with the Heisenberg case. Jesse's angry (and occasionally deadly) color is red, while his drug recovery tones are more drab and subdued.
Skyler White
We've established that blue represents purity, and Skyler is at her purest at the start of the show. She's not aware of Walt's business or even his cancer, and when she starts covering for him, she starts to wear less and less blue.
However, these yellow shirts do not only help illustrate Gus's perfectionist attitude. They also reflect his paranoia. In color theory, yellow is associated with deceit and betrayal, something that Gus constantly fears.
Purple. In Breaking Bad, Purple is primarily worn by Marie and it is used to symbolize protection, self-deception, and complete lack of involvement in the meth trade. Marie often wears the color purple to show her self-deception. Throughout the show he often tries to convince herself that she is somebody that she isn't ...
It's revealed in Season 5 that Ted ended up hospitalized with severe neck trauma. He has to keep his head in a huge protective brace and his head was completely shaved.
Gray Matter Technologies is a multi-billion dollar company co-founded by Walter White with his friend and fellow Caltech alumnus Elliott Schwartz sometime in the 1980s. The name came from a combination of the two's last names: Schwartz, meaning black in German, combined with White made gray.
His criminal activity has resulted in the death of a family member. With Hank's death the Heisenberg façade is shattered for good. Walt can't deny his culpability in Hank's death, not with any credibility. He doesn't have that resolve anymore.
Many thoughts of grief may have flooded Walt's mind after Hank was killed in Breaking Bad, but the reason why Walt tells Jesse the truth about Jane's death is indicative of his true nature. Walt's evolution to becoming Heisenberg was created out of a series of events of desperation and tragedy.
At dinner at the Whites, Hank goes to the bathroom and while there, pages through a copy of Leaves of Grass that Gale had given Walter. He recognizes the writing from Gale's notebook, and from Gale's dedication to Walt, is shocked to conclude that Walt is Heisenberg.
The confessional theme gets played up even further after Hank and Marie become horrified while watching Walt's DVD. Hank, who earlier in the episode had been unable to come clean to his DEA colleagues, gets a big reveal from Marie, as she admits that Walt and Skyler paid over $177,000 for Hank's medical expenses.
No. From the moment Walt had him dragged out from under that car in the desert, Jesse never forgave his former partner. From that moment on, Jesse felt nothing but hatred and resentment towards him.
Walter White may be fictional. But the $80 million profit he turned by selling meth in less than a year is a very realistic sum for a true-life drug kingpin.
Off camera, Walt crushes up some of the poison from the Lily of the Valley plant and injects it into a juice box. Also off camera, Walt delivers the juice box to Brock's school. (Having seen Brock the day before at Jesse and Andrea's place.)
The actor theorized that Ted became a quadriplegic following his accident, and he was left stuck in a bed and isolated. If he did clear up his fraud with the IRS, he probably lost his company and most of his other possessions.
Theodore "Ted" Beneke is the former president and owner of Beneke Fabricators, a company he inherited from his father, Mr. Beneke. He was the former boss and brief affair partner of Skyler White. Ted gives Skyler her old job back as his accountant.
In the series, Marie works as a radiologic technologist. She does not hesitate to offer advice to others but often fails to practice what she preaches. She shoplifts compulsively—apparently a manifest symptom of kleptomania—a behavior for which she sees a therapist.
Due to her overbearing personality, Marie had problems with control. She clearly had obsessive-compulsive tendencies that manifested in her kleptomania.
Marie cut Skyler and the rest of the White family out her life following Hank's death. It was understandable that her mental state took a hit considering the trauma she endured. Marie was shown to still be in a state of depression in the finale, insinuating that she was still uneasy that Walt was still out there.
Sexuality. Much of Gus' motives are driven by revenge for the death of his partner Maximino "Max" Arciniega by the Mexican cartel. Gus and Max's relationship was long implied to be more than business before their confirmation as lovers by showrunner Peter Gould in 2022.
Max Arciniega was the business and romantic partner of Gustavo Fring and co-founder of the Los Pollos Hermanos franchise. He held advanced degrees in both biochemistry and chemical engineering. Max's education was financed by Gus after Gus rescued him from the slums of Santiago.
No, he didn't. He was wary of him, but he didn't fear him. A commonality between the people who Walt goes up against is that they all underestimate just how far Walt is willing to go in order to achieve his goals, and that underestimation ends up costing them big time.
