Trivia
For the entire rest of the series, whenever Walt makes a sandwich, he removes the crusts from the bread.

Goofs
Jesse uses hydrofluoric acid to get rid of the corpse. This is extremely toxic and can only be used in a controlled environment with extreme safety measures. The gloves and masks he puts on are nowhere near enough, let alone them standing near it once the bathtub gives way. They would have suffered extreme lung and eye damage from just standing there.

Quotes
Walter White: [after Jesse's ceiling caves in] I'm sorry, what were you asking me? Oh, yes, that stupid plastic container I asked you to buy. You see, hydrofluoric acid won't eat through plastic; it will however dissolve metal, rock, glass, ceramic. So there's that.

Part II

So this was quite good, but I'm a little surprised it didn't air the week as the pilot episode. It feels a lot like a Part II of that one.

That's not to say it isn't good though. It did seem to further develop the show's tone. I didn't go in to this show expecting any comedy, but it's here and it's pretty dark, so I'm not complaining. Aaron Paul is a dang good actor and I'm excited to see what he does with this character. Cranston is so far as solid as I've heard he would be. All of the acting is honestly.

The coin toss sort of came off as hilarious to me, but the look Walt and Jesse give each other, and the conversation that followed, felt pretty serious and surprised me. This was quite entertaining.
