After Skinny Pete was kidnapped near the end of the previous episode he managed to call Jesse Pinkman and give him the address of Spooge: Jesse takes Walt's gun and goes to Spooge's house for giving him a lesson. There is no one at home so Jesse smashes a window, enters and the place is in total degradation, with lots of dirty clothes, garbage and broken objects. Soon a child comes out, silent and neglected as well: Jesse feeds him with the few edible things at home and when the parents come, Jesse soon attacks them at gunpoint. In the meanwhile Walter White returned working in his old high school, while also receiving the bad news that Grechten and Schwartz can't help him anymore with the money for the cancer cures. Jesse forces Spooge and his wife to give all the drug they have but is very little: Spooge then takes a ATM-like safe that should contain lots of money but his wife makes the safe fall on his head crushing it and killing him: Jesse takes all the money and flees not before letting the kid out and calling 911 wishing him good luck.
Jesse's story, while a bit dark, was great because it shows us that he also has an human side and can care for others when they are in the need while Walt's story wasn't particularly gratifying for the viewer. Overall a good episode especially in the last part.
