Re: A Breaking Bad Conversation Thread w/ *SPOILERS* Up the Wazoo

Except that real people don't behave like this, not even close. None of these individuals would function in the real world with how they act towards other people. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's great TV, but non-heroic doesn't equal reality.

Gus points out quite a few times that he doesn't deal with junkies, thinks it's a bad idea, and even repeatedly refers to Jesse specifically as a liability. It's Jesse that stirs up the trouble that ultimately forces Walt into conflict. So yes, I found it really out of character for him to suddenly switch to backing Jesse, even when for all its intents and purposes it was back to business and making boat loads of dosh. Why take the risk when it's made emphatic that the lab needs to be active every day?

So in this version is Gustavo Fring going to be a white guy?

If so, I sure hope he manages an American-style restaurant called "The Chicken Brothers".

Instead of "a trip to Belize," maybe Saul Buenohombre's euphemism for murder will be "a siesta in Baltimore."

Another fun detail: Apparently, RVs aren't common in South America, so Walter Blanco and Jose Rosas are cooking out of a dilapidated bus.

Instead of Bacon spelling out his age on his eggs, it's chorizo on his huevos.

In the pilot, Cielo will give Walter a disinterested Spanish hand job.

Thankfully, "mineral," in Spanish is, "mineral."  One less word to translate!
