Storyline

Skyler gets the first of Hank's hospital bills and decides the time has come to get more involved in Walt's business affairs. She's particularly concerned that the money is laundered correctly and that it absolutely cannot be traced back to Walt's illegal activities. Walt introduces her to Saul the lawyer but she thinks the investment he's lined up is ludicrous and has a better idea. Jesse meanwhile is still trying to peddle the meth he been skimming at the lab and fed up with the slow pace, decides to show how it's done. At the hospital, Marie is thrilled at the prospect of Hank returning home but he doesn't seem anywhere near as pleased. Walt's employer, Gus, invites him to dinner and dispenses sage advice.

Trivia

When Walter and Skyler visit the lawyer, the scene cuts to a shot that displays a Master of Arts degree from the University of American Samoa presented to Saul Goodman. In the prequel series Better Call Saul (2015) we learn that a law degree was earned by Saul, but at the time still went by his real name, James McGill.

Jesse deserves all he gets

First Jane, now Andrea, tempting them into using his meth. Both ladies cleaned up before they meet him. No mercy for Jesse.
