We get one real episode of Breaking Bad, the previous one, and then this show turns into Desperate Housewives again. I was afraid that it wold not be possible to have two tight episodes back to back, and that it exactly what happened. A lot of slow, unnecessary scenes, the same thing being hammered into the viewer's head again and again and again. The family drama. Jesse's depression. Is it really necessary to make the viewers also depressed by repeating the same scene of him dialing his dead girlfriend's number a million times? We already saw that. We know that he is depressed. How about you try to fill the length of the episode with something else? As so many times before, there are a few interesting bits, but they are buried under a mountain of boredom.
And a bit of a lack of continuity. In this episode, Tio is supposed to be some huge player in the cartel, and Tuco was supposed to be their main man in the USA. Yet Tuco only showed up after Krazy 8 was killed, so he was either his underling, or not strong and important enough to get Krazy 8's territory. And Tio practically lived in his own filth, out in the middle of nowhere. Hardly the way some hugely important cartel member would be left to live out his days.
