Walt can never seem to save Jesse without destroying him all the more. But here at least Walt is acknowledging that he has betrayed Jesse and his own humanity with an act that can never be defended or forgiven.

Beautifully put :sniffs:

For a show that is so character-centric and so focused on watching Walt's character deteriorate, I will never understand those that dismiss Fly as pointless filler

I know! I always consider the Fly episode to be the perfect 'Janus' phase of Walt's transition. The point where Walt is aware of both the good person he has been and the bad person he is becoming. I don't think there is any other point in canon when Walt sees both who he has been and who he is becoming so clearly.

Thanks! BTW, since we have a good discussion going I submitted this post to your Tumblr meta community but I don't think it's been approved yet.
