This is the ninth episode of the third season of Breaking Bad and while it's a little on the slow side, it is an appropriate time to add in some character development. Sure there was lots of talking involved, but these conversations were meaningful. And for once in this show, I can agree and even come to like Skylar's character and her proposition to pay for Hank's treatment.
In this episode, "Kafkaesque," Marie is confused and worried on how to pay for Hank's hospital bill and extensive physical therapy, but Skylar comes up with an interesting story so that Walt can pay the bill with his drug money. Meanwhile, Jesse joins an addict circle and he ensues a confrontation with Saul. Finally, Walt realizes that he only survived thanks to the intervention of Gus.
Overall, this is a little slow, talkative episode, but if you can look beyond that, then you should find meaning behind those words. Not a lot of action here, but some episodes don't need the action to effectively tell the story. I rate this episode 8/10.
