Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsIn the opening scene the robbers use the truck's exhaust gases to suffocate the guards inside the cargo bay. This wouldn't work for several reasons. First, the vast majority of trucks in the US run on diesel, and diesel soot is not poisonous. It even contains a high amount of breathable air. Therefore it would neither poison nor suffocate the guards. If they wanted to achieve this, they should've piped their SUV's exhaust into the truck, as a normal petrol car's exhaust contains a lot of carbon monoxide. Or simply bring a large can of nitrogen and pump that into the cargo bay which would kill the guards instantly, especially if they are lying prone on the floor. The other reason why it wouldn't work is that the cargo bay is hermetically sealed (being a refrigerator truck) and the exhaust can not push air out of the enclosed space. It would increase pressure for a while, then probably just stall. In any case, the guards would probably have a bad time, even get a bad headache, but won't die.
- Quotes
Skyler White: Walt, please, let's both of us stop trying to justify this whole thing and admit you're in danger!
Walter White: Who are you talking to right now? Who is it you think you see? Do you know how much I make a year? I mean, even if I told you, you wouldn't believe it. Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work? A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly up. Disappears! It ceases to exist without me. No, you clearly don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks!

In this episode, "Cornered," Walt explains to Skylar in a fiery speech about how important he is to the meth suppliers, which causes her to take the baby and leave for a few days. Meanwhile, Jesse continues going out with Mike on errands for Gus, this time around trying to reclaim meth that was stolen from them. Walt shows his disapproval in an unexpected way. Also, Walt decides to buy his son a car.
Overall, this is a fantastic episode and one that has Skylar beginning how truly dangerous Walt's job really is. That outburst by Walt in the beginning is the most memorable speech in recent television history. But this episode also shows how Walt may be reaching his critical point. I rate this episode 9/10.
