S3 is a kickass season but I do get Walt/Jesse withdrawals and was slightly disappointed that we didn't get to see them sharing Walt's new apartment. But then S3 has One Minute, Fly and Half Measures which include some of the best W/J moments ever.
It's like he suddenly pushed the 'charisma on'
It really is! Jesse looks so different in that scene. Jesse is normally so lost and confused but being the bad guy gives him so much ZING and sex appeal. And then they had to mess his face up. Again. The bastards...
Reminds me of what Walt said to Gus the first time they talk as to why he worked with Jesse. 'Because I trust him' Even stupidly so!
This makes me think that Jesse more so than Hank could be the one who brings Walt down (meaning arrested rather than killed). Walt trusts Jesse implicitly. Even in S4 Walt trusted that Jesse wouldn't let Gus kill him and blamed Jesse turning against him on Gus screwing with Jesse's head, not Jesse himself. Walt had no idea Jesse had a gun in his waistband in that last S5 scene and he never seemed to consider Jesse as a loose end.
We often see in fiction characters who are really sensitive but hide behind a tough guy exterior. Walt is the opposite. He's an aggressive, violent, macho guy hiding behind a 'sensitive guy' mask.
I think Hank is the first type of guy. A macho man who secretly suffers with PTSD. Jesse too, the shady criminal who is secretly moral and sensitive. But yes. Walt is definitely a lion in sheep's clothing.
He was so panicked when he saw Walt leaving... He might as well have screamed 'Don't leave now! Tell me I'm worth something to you!'.
I know!! *cries* Walt can be so emotionally tone-deaf. Offering Jesse the money was so impersonal and it just made it seem like Walt was trying to buy Jesse's silence over Hank's assault. Walt already told Jesse that Gus was only using him, implying that Walt was only using Jesse too. Just give Jesse some love and some worth, damn it! But then, I do think Walt was trying to save Jesse's life. He actually spends most of S3 and early S4 trying to save Jesse's life, in spite of Jesse's own death wish.

I know! It would have been so much fun to see a little bit of Walt and Jesse living in the same place for a few days. Or Walter Jr. running into Jesse! When Junior went to see his dad in that crappy appartment, I couldn't help but wonder where Jesse was and if they were going to run into each other. I hope we'll get those two to interact somehow.
I think part of the reason behind Fly was to make up for all the early season 3 episodes...

Well, Jesse and Walt are the two main characters of Breaking Bad. Walt is, without a doubt, the 'bad guy' of season 5 and it would make sense for the other main character (the relative 'good guy') to bring him down. Walter hurt a lot of people, but none more than Jesse. So I firmly believe it's going to be Jesse vs. Walt in the end, not Walt vs. Hank (Can't wait to see poor conflicted Jesse going against Walt)
He actually spends most of S3 and early S4 trying to save Jesse's life, in spite of Jesse's own death wish.
And that's why I cannot completely hate Walt (despite my frequent FUCK YOU WALTER WHITE I HOPE YOU DIE A HORRIBLE AND PAINFUL DEATH I HATE YOU DIE DIE DIE). The bastards.
