Breaking Bad: Gray Matter (2008)
Season 1, Episode 5
9/10
Gray Matter (#1.5)
24 December 2013
Warning: Spoilers
In his episodes the characters are exploring their other possibilities that don't require them cooking meth. For Walt it is simply to not get treatment. We meet people from his past who want to help him, but he doesn't accept it. The whole family then gets together to have a sort of intervention with him where everyone shares his feelings. It is a beautiful, emotional, well thought through and greatly acted scene. They all bring their different concerns which are very valid. Yes, my favorite scene in the episode.

Jesse tries to get a job, but this doesn't go well. Him and a friend of his get together to cook some meth, but it doesn't fit Jesse's standard of a perfect drug he made with Walt. Those scenes are providing some comic relief. "It is basic chemistry, yo!".

But it is great they are back together, looking forward to what is next!
