Review :
An empty house is seen. A real estate agent shows a much younger Walt and Skyler (pregnant with Walt Jr.) their current home. Walt has his hair and a much more suave attitude. He's working at the chemistry company he used to work for. They see the pool and the appliances. Walt says they will have 3 kids eventually, Skyler will write – clearly they are full of ambition with high set goals. Walt says why buy a starter house when they'll have to move up in size in a couple of years anyway. But Skyler says it would be too much. Walt says there's nowhere to go but up.Walt sits in his Aztec near an abandoned farm.
Mike is seen driving his granddaughter back to her mother's house. He has kept some balloons. Later that night, he takes the balloons (which have an aluminum backing) and short-circuits the power lines near a warehouse. Guards cock their guns and head out of the office they are in. Mike kills them both swiftly (and with a silencer – he's definitely done this before). He finds a secretary inside but tells her to be quiet. He kills two more men and finds a man named Chow. It seems he runs a chemical plant. Mike asks Chow if the secretary can drive well. Then he shoots Chow with a minor wound, says to return his calls next time, and tells Chow to get the secretary to drive him to the hospital. Mike inspects the I.D.'s of the men he killed. Mike later tells Gus that the men at the warehouse were sent by the cartel.
Walt is at home with his daughter. Skyler and Walt Jr. are in the background. Walt gets a call from Jesse. Jesse gives Walt Gale's address. Walt plans to put his plan of action in effect tonight. Jesse again tells Walt not to do this and to go to the cops. Walt heads outside, but suddenly Victor shows up and tells him there is a chemical leak at the lab. Walt has an uneasy feeling as he gets into the car with Victor (alone). Walt thinks it's pretty much the end of the line. He knows Gus wants him dead. Bringing him to the warehouse at this time of night is a death sentence, he figures. Mike opens up the stairwell to get in. Walt heads down in what he must feel is his death trap. Walt tells Mike that he can't do this. Walt pleads to Mike. Then Walt says he can give Mike Jesse. Mike says if he can get an address but Walt says he moves around a lot. Walt says he will call Jesse. Jesse is getting ready to use meth again, but stops. Jesse gets the call from Walt. Walt says he can't do it anymore and it has to be Jesse. Walt then screams quickly that they're going to kill him. Jesse springs into action, grabbing a gun.
Mike and Victor get ready to shoot Walt, but then Walt says Gus is going to need him and spits out Gale's address. Victor starts running. Mike erupts with anger. Mike attempts to warn Gale, but the latter is listening to his eccentric music and doesn't hear his phone vibrate. Jesse knocks on Gale's door and he opens it. Jesse struggles while Gale tells Jesse that he doesn't have to do this. Jesse sobs but fires point blank.
