1. It came out of nowhere.Copy !req
2. You gotta help us.Copy !req
3. - Look at all this damn water.
- Don't drink that.Copy !req
4. Ain't no telling
if it's gonna be poison.Copy !req
5. Nothing new over here.Copy !req
6. How's Junior?Copy !req
7. Exactly what I expected.Copy !req
8. He hasn't said a word
since we told him it was going back.Copy !req
9. I spoke to the dealership,
they didn't wanna take it.Copy !req
10. What?Copy !req
11. It's in perfect condition.Copy !req
12. - It's got 17 miles on the odometer.
- I know.Copy !req
13. I spent an hour sweet-talking
the manager down to a restocking fee.Copy !req
14. Eight hundred dollars.Copy !req
15. Eight hundred dollars?
For two days?Copy !req
16. Well, the law says they don't have
to take it back at all.Copy !req
17. All right, here's the registration,
the window sticker, the receipt.Copy !req
18. Make sure you talk
to the general manager.Copy !req
19. His name is Glenn.Copy !req
20. Glenn.Copy !req
21. Call me if there's a problem.
And please just don't—Copy !req
22. Don't tangle with anyone.Copy !req
23. Fine.Copy !req
24. Walt.Copy !req
25. Shit.Copy !req
26. Yes, hello.Copy !req
27. I need a cab.Copy !req
28. Yes, thank you. The name is White.Copy !req
29. I'm at the Pavilion parking lot
on University.Copy !req
30. Oh, yes, that's right.
Just south of the airport.Copy !req
31. Oh, that would be great, thank you.Copy !req
32. How long do you think
that would take?Copy !req
33. No, I'm sure he'll see me.Copy !req
34. Thank you.Copy !req
35. Contrition?Copy !req
36. Hey, there is total contrition here.Copy !req
37. There's mountains of contrition.Copy !req
38. "Fan-tan-tastic."
I will messenger them over right away.Copy !req
39. Oh, and about that other thing
unrelated, yes, I can get you in...Copy !req
40. but I gotta warn you,
the eighth hole is murder.Copy !req
41. Oh, yeah.
You wanna make it interesting?Copy !req
42. Great. Tee time is 7 a.m. sharp.Copy !req
43. Prepare to have your ass handed
to you.Copy !req
44. Okay. Bye.Copy !req
45. He was headed for destruction
of property. Since it's your property...Copy !req
46. I sweated him down
to misdemeanor trash burning.Copy !req
47. Now, the only thing is,
it's not gonna be free.Copy !req
48. There's a 5 grand fine,
600 for towing and disposal...Copy !req
49. 3 grand to steam-clean
the blacktop.Copy !req
50. So bottom line, your little joyride is
gonna set you back...Copy !req
51. about 52,000 bucks.Copy !req
52. So was it worth it?Copy !req
53. I don't need to hear the blow-by-blow.
Just tell me it's done.Copy !req
54. Oh, I'm sorry. Did I wake you?Copy !req
55. I caught this thing
before it got into the system.Copy !req
56. Your record stays clean,
the wife never finds out.Copy !req
57. I've been working magic here.
I could at least get an "attaboy."Copy !req
58. Fine. Rebel without a cause, give.Copy !req
59. What is it? Fring?Copy !req
60. He will see me dead.Copy !req
61. And there's nothing I can do
about it.Copy !req
62. All that's left is to wait.Copy !req
63. And we're sure about this.Copy !req
64. Because Pinkman says
he needs you too much.Copy !req
65. "Pinkman says."Copy !req
66. "Pinkman says."Copy !req
67. Unless...Copy !req
68. you could help me find
a third party.Copy !req
69. What third party?Copy !req
70. Someone who can ameliorate
the situation.Copy !req
71. Let's ditch the thesaurus, all right?Copy !req
72. You talking about a hit man?Copy !req
73. Assuming that's still
what they're called.Copy !req
74. Wrong answer.Copy !req
75. That's what the kids call "epic fail."Copy !req
76. All I would need is a phone number.
I'd do the rest.Copy !req
77. Saul, there'd be a finder's fee.Copy !req
78. A big one.Copy !req
79. If you held my feet to the fire,
I could come up with names.Copy !req
80. One or two guys west of the Rockies
who do this work.Copy !req
81. But guess what. These guys...Copy !req
82. they know Mike
and Mike knows them.Copy !req
83. Mike knows everyone who does this?Copy !req
84. Who do you think gave me
their names?Copy !req
85. All right. Okay, plan B.
Look, we go outside my network.Copy !req
86. Craigslist. Soldier of Fortune.Copy !req
87. Let's say we get lucky.
I mean, incredibly lucky...Copy !req
88. and find a guy who's not a cop...Copy !req
89. or some kind
of survivalist nut-job wannabe.Copy !req
90. You gotta ask yourself:
How good is good enough?Copy !req
91. Whatever goombah we buy
is gonna come head-to-head with Mike.Copy !req
92. And Gus Fring?Copy !req
93. Hey, just winging that guy is
not gonna "ameliorate" your situation.Copy !req
94. Not by a damn sight.Copy !req
95. I've tried to solve this,
but I can't get anywhere near him.Copy !req
96. You can't get near him?Copy !req
97. Why don't you ask your partner?Copy !req
98. Yeah, I saw him.Copy !req
99. And you tell Saul before you tell me?Copy !req
100. Look, he's my lawyer,
same as yours.Copy !req
101. Every time I go over there,
Saul hassles me about Mike.Copy !req
102. He's still scared
the dude's gonna come break his legs.Copy !req
103. So I give him the latest.Copy !req
104. What happened exactly?Copy !req
105. I was at a diner with Mike
and he just shows up.Copy !req
106. They send me outside
and the two of them talk.Copy !req
107. That's it.Copy !req
108. So this is, like, a regular thing?Copy !req
109. How close were you to him?Copy !req
110. Close.Copy !req
111. I mean, closer than you and me
right now.Copy !req
112. Did he speak to you?Copy !req
113. It was over in 10 seconds.Copy !req
114. Would you just answer?Copy !req
115. He said, he sees things in people.Copy !req
116. What things?Copy !req
117. What people?Copy !req
118. Me.Copy !req
119. He said he sees something in me.Copy !req
120. A month ago,
Gus was trying to kill both of us.Copy !req
121. And now he pulls you out of the lab
and employs you as what?Copy !req
122. An assistant gunman?Copy !req
123. A tough guy?Copy !req
124. Does that make any sense to you?Copy !req
125. He says he sees something in you.Copy !req
126. What kind of game is he playing?Copy !req
127. Does he think you're that naive?Copy !req
128. He can't truly think
that you'd forget—Copy !req
129. Well, let alone Gale,
let alone Victor...Copy !req
130. and all the horror
that goes along with all of that.Copy !req
131. What about this girlfriend of yours...Copy !req
132. and her little brother?Copy !req
133. I mean, the man looked you straight
in the eye...Copy !req
134. and told you, "No more children."
But that very night, that little boy...Copy !req
135. he just—Copy !req
136. He winds up...Copy !req
137. Gus can't possibly think
that you'd forget that.Copy !req
138. - Okay.
- All I'm just saying is that...Copy !req
139. is it possible that he would think
that you're that weak-willed?Copy !req
140. Drop the sales pitch.Copy !req
141. I'll do it.Copy !req
142. You'll do what?Copy !req
143. I'll kill him.Copy !req
144. First chance I get.Copy !req
145. Piña colada?
More like stale bubblegum.Copy !req
146. Does anyone want their car to smell
like the bottom of a 6th-grader's desk?Copy !req
147. Okay. Hemp? Really?Copy !req
148. I know. But you know what they say.
"The customer's always right."Copy !req
149. Speaking of customer, it's not too late
to have a grand opening.Copy !req
150. I was thinking huge party, balloons,
bouncy house for the kids...Copy !req
151. you know, make a splash,
get on TV.Copy !req
152. Let people know they won't face the
eyebrows of doom when they come in.Copy !req
153. Marie, how's Hank doing?Copy !req
154. You know what? He's doing better.Copy !req
155. - Is he?
- Yeah. He—Copy !req
156. Lately, his mood's improved
and he's like a maniac with his PT.Copy !req
157. That's fantastic.Copy !req
158. Yeah, don't get me wrong,
he's got a long way to go, but he—Copy !req
159. - Yeah.
- Oh, hey.Copy !req
160. - Hey. Hi, Walt. It's good to see you.
- Hey. You too.Copy !req
161. Hey, your cashier here
is quite the salesperson.Copy !req
162. She just talked me into something
called the Orbital Paste Wax Buff.Copy !req
163. Oh, yeah, it's very important
to maintain your clear coat.Copy !req
164. Boy, once that's goes—Copy !req
165. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
166. Hi.Copy !req
167. Hi.Copy !req
168. Bogdan was averaging 19 cars
during rush hour...Copy !req
169. and we are already up to 22.
Twenty-two actual cars.Copy !req
170. Last night, I deposited $3800.Copy !req
171. Jesus.Copy !req
172. How much is that?Copy !req
173. Two hundred seventy-four
thousand dollars, give or take.Copy !req
174. - Give or take?
- Yeah.Copy !req
175. I haven't counted it.Copy !req
176. Wait.Copy !req
177. Two hundred and seventy-four—Copy !req
178. And this is how often?Copy !req
179. Every two weeks.Copy !req
180. Thursdays good for a drop-off?Copy !req
181. But, Walt...Copy !req
182. are you telling me
you make $7,125,000 a year?Copy !req
183. Seven and a half even,
before expenses.Copy !req
184. But I can't—Copy !req
185. - This is too much.
- So it's more...Copy !req
186. than you thought...Copy !req
187. and this is somehow bad news?Copy !req
188. No, that's not the point.Copy !req
189. I mean, there's no car wash
in the world...Copy !req
190. that could do
this kind of business.Copy !req
191. I mean, this is nine months' work here,
minimum.Copy !req
192. Seven million?
That could take years.Copy !req
193. So set some aside.
Save it for a rainy day.Copy !req
194. Save it? Where? Save it where?Copy !req
195. I can't go to the bank with it.
I sure can't leave it here.Copy !req
196. Wait a minute.Copy !req
197. Is this all 50s?Copy !req
198. - Who pays for a car wash with a 50?
- Skyler, I didn't ask you to do this.Copy !req
199. I was under the impression
that you had this under control.Copy !req
200. I just didn't expect
this amount of money.Copy !req
201. - The 50s are gonna be a problem.
- That's what this is, problem solving.Copy !req
202. This is a simple division of labor.Copy !req
203. I bring money. You launder money.
This is what you wanted.Copy !req
204. I never wanted any of this.Copy !req
205. I've gotta go.Copy !req
206. If you want out,
just say that you want out.Copy !req
207. Okay, then.Copy !req
208. You're telling me
you made this in the lab?Copy !req
209. Why not?Copy !req
210. Making it in his own lab
seemed appropriate.Copy !req
211. There's not much of it.Copy !req
212. We had more for Tuco.Copy !req
213. It's enough.Copy !req
214. This is still the best way.Copy !req
215. You go after him with a gun,
you'll never get out of it alive.Copy !req
216. But with this...Copy !req
217. you slip it into his food or drink.Copy !req
218. There shouldn't be
any taste or smell.Copy !req
219. Thirty-six hours later...Copy !req
220. A man his age,
working as hard as he does...Copy !req
221. no one will be surprised.Copy !req
222. What about Mike?Copy !req
223. Mike can have his suspicions,
but that's all they'll be.Copy !req
224. Please, one homicidal maniac
at a time.Copy !req
225. I don't know
when I'm gonna see Gus again.Copy !req
226. I mean, if ever.Copy !req
227. Keep it with you.Copy !req
228. When you have the opportunity...Copy !req
229. be ready.Copy !req
230. What if they search me?Copy !req
231. Will they do that?Copy !req
232. It's the wrong way around.Copy !req
233. It's my lucky cigarette.Copy !req
234. Well...Copy !req
235. whatever you do, don't smoke it.Copy !req
236. You know they have a drive-thru,
right?Copy !req
237. No, this is good.Copy !req
238. Could use the exercise,
get the blood pumping.Copy !req
239. Don't worry,
you're not gonna have to pick me up.Copy !req
240. Might take me a while,
but I'll get there.Copy !req
241. Jesus, ain't we a pair.Copy !req
242. Hey, you must really like chicken.Copy !req
243. V-8, 470 horses, 20-inch rims,
satellite radio, Bluetooth.Copy !req
244. Zero to 60 in 4.7 seconds.Copy !req
245. Whoa, whoa, what do you mean,
on a lark?Copy !req
246. Spur of the moment, your dad ups
and buys you a brand-new Challenger?Copy !req
247. Yeah, I barely got it
around the block...Copy !req
248. and Mom said we couldn't afford it
so they took it back.Copy !req
249. Do you know how long I had it?
Fifteen hours.Copy !req
250. Well, hey, buddy,
let me tell you something.Copy !req
251. When I was your age...Copy !req
252. I'd have given my left nut
to drive a car like that for 15 minutes.Copy !req
253. Seriously, how does that happen?Copy !req
254. Well, we were looking at used cars
and I kind of—Copy !req
255. You guilted him into it. I know.
I hear you.Copy !req
256. You pulled the old, "Poor little me
and my troubles," am I right?Copy !req
257. - Maybe.
- You flew too close to the sun.Copy !req
258. You'd have let him buy you a clunker,
you'd be driving now...Copy !req
259. instead
of borrowing mom's hooptie.Copy !req
260. Agent Schrader.Copy !req
261. - How are you doing?
- Well, thank you.Copy !req
262. Good to see you.
Do you remember Mr. Fring?Copy !req
263. - How are you?
- Well. Nice to see you again.Copy !req
264. It's a pleasure to see you.
You're looking well.Copy !req
265. Yeah, well, you know, chalk it up
to clean living and vitamin pills.Copy !req
266. I must apologize.
If I had seen you come in...Copy !req
267. there'd have been no question
of accepting your money.Copy !req
268. In the future, feel free to ask for me.Copy !req
269. A DEA hero should never have to pay
for a meal at Pollos Hermanos.Copy !req
270. No kidding?
Well, I'll take you up on that, for sure.Copy !req
271. And how are your mother
and father?Copy !req
272. They're good.Copy !req
273. - The chicken is great.
- Thank you.Copy !req
274. If ever you're interested
in rewarding part-time work...Copy !req
275. perhaps something after school,
my door is open.Copy !req
276. Sounds good.Copy !req
277. I don't know about this one.
He might eat up all your profits.Copy !req
278. I'll let you finish your meal.
Can I get you anything else?Copy !req
279. - A refill, perhaps?
- No, thank you. I'm good.Copy !req
280. - Sure. Take a Diet Coke, thank you.
- Of course.Copy !req
281. So where are we going?Copy !req
282. Oh, big doings today.Copy !req
283. The order of the day is eyes open,
mouth shut.Copy !req
284. What's up?Copy !req
285. Test.Copy !req
286. Test.Copy !req
287. You got me?Copy !req
288. Count off.Copy !req
289. Let's go.Copy !req
290. Right here.
Leave the wrap on, please.Copy !req
291. You know how to make coffee?Copy !req
292. Sure.Copy !req
293. There you go.Copy !req
294. - You want a rundown?
- Please.Copy !req
295. Three guys up at the gate,
two visible, one in the blind.Copy !req
296. We got five guys down here
with a backup out of sight.Copy !req
297. I got Tyrus down in the tree line
with a Barrett.50.Copy !req
298. Planted him there last night,
in case we had any early arrivals.Copy !req
299. I don't have an extra holster.Copy !req
300. Stick this in your pocket.
Keep it out of sight.Copy !req
301. If you're gonna be here today,
you're gonna have a gun.Copy !req
302. It's loaded?Copy !req
303. I don't wanna see that in your hand
unless you see me with mine.Copy !req
304. Emergency only.Copy !req
305. First car is coming.Copy !req
306. All right,
what's the order of the day?Copy !req
307. Eyes open, mouth shut.Copy !req
308. A lot of guns.Copy !req
309. Nobody's asking you
to give up yours.Copy !req
310. You wanna sweep the place
before you bring in your guys?Copy !req
311. I am the guy.Copy !req
312. All right, then.Copy !req
313. Welcome.Copy !req
314. Where is the rest of your party?Copy !req
315. I am the only one coming.Copy !req
316. And why is that?Copy !req
317. My employers feel I can adequately
represent their interests.Copy !req
318. Please, sit.Copy !req
319. This is my offer.Copy !req
320. In consideration
of our previous relationship...Copy !req
321. I will make a one-time payment...Copy !req
322. of 50 million U.S. dollars.Copy !req
323. In return our business is concluded.Copy !req
324. No further payments.
No further contact.Copy !req
325. An absolute severance.Copy !req
326. You have no response?Copy !req
327. This is my response:Copy !req
328. Yes or no?Copy !req
329. You know what the Cartel wants.Copy !req
330. Anything else would be a waste of time.Copy !req
331. Is it to be yes... or no?Copy !req
332. A hard way to begin a negotiation.Copy !req
333. This is not a negotiation.Copy !req
334. You got something of mine?Copy !req
335. Glove box.Copy !req
336. Figure I better teach you
how to shoot.Copy !req
337. Could be things are gonna get hairy.Copy !req
338. What is this?Copy !req
339. I mean, you're giving me a gun...Copy !req
340. and now I'm, like, part of the team
or whatever?Copy !req
341. He said he sees something in me.Copy !req
342. Like what?Copy !req
343. If I had to put it in a word...Copy !req
344. I'd guess loyalty.Copy !req
345. Loyalty.Copy !req
346. Only maybe you got it
for the wrong guy.Copy !req
347. Jesse?Copy !req
348. - Hey.
- Hey.Copy !req
349. Long time, no see.Copy !req
350. How you doing?Copy !req
351. Yeah, you know...Copy !req
352. - ... good.
- Good.Copy !req
353. Good.Copy !req
354. Okay, we're gonna get started.
You coming in?Copy !req
355. So the truth is, we can't change
the past, what's done is done.Copy !req
356. We've gotta own our actions,
but putting ourselves on trial...Copy !req
357. acting as our own judge, jury
and executioner, it's not the answer.Copy !req
358. A lot of the time,
all that judging does...Copy !req
359. is just ensure
that we're gonna repeat the cycle.Copy !req
360. Right?Copy !req
361. "I'm such an asshole.Copy !req
362. It's totally hopeless,
what's the point?Copy !req
363. I think I'll have a hit."Copy !req
364. Jesse...Copy !req
365. what's going on with you
these days?Copy !req
366. I went back to the crystal.Copy !req
367. You sober now?Copy !req
368. Yeah.Copy !req
369. Four days.Copy !req
370. Big whoop, right?Copy !req
371. Hey, four days is four days.Copy !req
372. You're here.Copy !req
373. You still...Copy !req
374. working at the laundry?Copy !req
375. How are things there?Copy !req
376. Sucks ass.Copy !req
377. Anything you wanna talk about?Copy !req
378. A couple of weeks back...Copy !req
379. I killed a dog.Copy !req
380. You hit it with your car?Copy !req
381. No.Copy !req
382. I put him down.Copy !req
383. I watched him go.Copy !req
384. I was looking him straight in the eye.Copy !req
385. He didn't know what was happening.
He didn't know why. He—Copy !req
386. He was just scared.Copy !req
387. And then he was gone.Copy !req
388. He was suffering.Copy !req
389. It was a kindness.Copy !req
390. No, he wasn't sick.Copy !req
391. No. He was just, like—Copy !req
392. I don't know, like, a...Copy !req
393. problem dog.Copy !req
394. What did he do?Copy !req
395. Bite someone?Copy !req
396. No, this dog never—Copy !req
397. Never bit anybody.Copy !req
398. You pick up the rock,
you go right to the dark side.Copy !req
399. Anything can happen.Copy !req
400. It ain't no rock that made me do it.Copy !req
401. What was the problem?
Why did you kill him?Copy !req
402. Watch the crosstalk, please.Copy !req
403. Maybe it's not the details that matter,
right?Copy !req
404. How do you feel about what you did,
Jesse?Copy !req
405. I don't know.Copy !req
406. Who cares how you feel?Copy !req
407. What kind of person kills a dog
for no reason?Copy !req
408. Colleen.Copy !req
409. Put an ad in the paper,
drop him off at a shelter.Copy !req
410. You don't just sit there and talk about
killing a helpless, innocent animal.Copy !req
411. We're not here to sit in judgment.Copy !req
412. Why not?Copy !req
413. Why not? Maybe she's right.Copy !req
414. Maybe I should have put it in the paper.
I should've done something different.Copy !req
415. The thing is, if you just do stuff
and nothing happens...Copy !req
416. what's it all mean?Copy !req
417. What's the point?Copy !req
418. Oh, right, this whole thing
is about self-acceptance.Copy !req
419. Kicking yourself
doesn't give meaning to anything.Copy !req
420. So I should stop judging...Copy !req
421. - ... and accept?
- It's a start.Copy !req
422. So no matter what I do...Copy !req
423. hooray for me
because I'm a great guy?Copy !req
424. It's all good?Copy !req
425. No matter how many dogs I kill, I just,
what, do an inventory and accept?Copy !req
426. I mean, you back your truck over
your own kid and you, like, accept?Copy !req
427. - What a load of crap?
- Hey, Jesse.Copy !req
428. I know you're in pain.Copy !req
429. No, you know what?Copy !req
430. Why I'm here in the first place...Copy !req
431. is to sell you meth.Copy !req
432. You're nothing to me but customers!Copy !req
433. I made you my bitch.Copy !req
434. You okay with that?Copy !req
435. You accept?Copy !req
436. No.Copy !req
437. About time.Copy !req
438. Jesse.Copy !req
439. Jesse.Copy !req
440. Bring a light over here, will you?Copy !req
441. Do you see any residue there?Copy !req
442. - Where?
- Here. On the bottom, right there.Copy !req
443. It's been a week. What's going on?Copy !req
444. I haven't seen him.Copy !req
445. I didn't think so. But I'll just give it
another shot anyway.Copy !req
446. - Hey.
- Hey, buddy. Look at that.Copy !req
447. Graduated to doorman.
Finally found your calling.Copy !req
448. Oh, little whiskers, Marie.Copy !req
449. What did you do?Copy !req
450. Show your barber a picture
of a dog's ass and said, "I'll take that"?Copy !req
451. Charming as usual.Copy !req
452. Welcome back.Copy !req
453. - Looking good, Marie.
- Thanks, Steve.Copy !req
454. - Good to see you. How you doing?
- He's fine. We can take it from here.Copy !req
455. - Yeah.
- If you wanna hold his elbow.Copy !req
456. No, no, no. You keep your mitts off me.
I'm good. I'm good.Copy !req
457. Hey.Copy !req
458. Good luck.Copy !req
459. Let's go, we're running late.
Come on.Copy !req
460. Hank, seeing you walk in here, I can't
tell you what that means to all of us.Copy !req
461. Your progress, it's incredible.Copy !req
462. Yeah, well, chalk it up to clean living
and vitamin pills.Copy !req
463. - Steve tell you his news?
- What?Copy !req
464. Finally got your period?Copy !req
465. I made GS-14.Copy !req
466. Wow, that's all right, man.Copy !req
467. Next stop: Washington, D.C.
Sitting behind a desk...Copy !req
468. papers piled so high,
you can't see over them.Copy !req
469. Hey, better you than me, buddy.Copy !req
470. Seriously, congratulations, buddy.Copy !req
471. Thanks.Copy !req
472. Steve said you might have something
for us.Copy !req
473. Yeah, maybe.
You guys are gonna have to tell me.Copy !req
474. Remember my pal Tim Roberts?Copy !req
475. APD detective?Copy !req
476. Yeah, well, he's working
on a murder case.Copy !req
477. The victim's a 34-year-old
male Caucasian...Copy !req
478. by the name of Gale Boetticher.Copy !req
479. One night last month,
Boetticher opens the door...Copy !req
480. takes a bullet to the face
from a person or persons unknown.Copy !req
481. Now, this Gale Boetticher
is a bona fide chemistry genius.Copy !req
482. I mean, he's got degrees
up the wazoo, right?Copy !req
483. And, well, as you might expect,
he's a nerd's nerd.Copy !req
484. Vegan, sandals and socks
kind of guy.Copy !req
485. As it turns out, he's also
an A-number-one meth cook.Copy !req
486. And what caught my eye
is his specialty product is blue.Copy !req
487. So, what are you thinking?Copy !req
488. This is your Heisenberg?Copy !req
489. No. What I think we got here
is Heisenberg's former cook...Copy !req
490. and maybe a line
on Heisenberg himself.Copy !req
491. Anyway, lo and behold,
amidst all the hippie-dippy nonsense...Copy !req
492. I find this.Copy !req
493. Now, this here,
I do a little Google-fu...Copy !req
494. and I realize it's a parts number
specifically for this baby.Copy !req
495. That there is a high-volume
HEPA industrial air filtration system.Copy !req
496. That's a 300,000-dollar gadget.Copy !req
497. Perfect for a pharmaceutical plant
or microchip factory...Copy !req
498. or maybe the biggest meth lab
north of the border.Copy !req
499. Okay.Copy !req
500. So this little dingus here
is manufactured...Copy !req
501. by a big international concern:
Madrigal Electromotive.Copy !req
502. I call their Houston office, I get through
to the nicest little 20-year-old temp.Copy !req
503. I use the Schrader sweet-talk.
Before you know it, she's pulling files.Copy !req
504. Six months ago, one of these systems
was shipped to a depot here in ABQ.Copy !req
505. Who signed for it?Copy !req
506. Gale Boetticher.Copy !req
507. So I asked my new girlfriend, "Who
paid for it?" And she says, "Nobody."Copy !req
508. They have no record that anybody
actually paid for this thing.Copy !req
509. So I go back and push more
and before you know it...Copy !req
510. the temp's gone,
there's no address.Copy !req
511. I'm talking to some snot-nose lawyer
who's asking me for my badge number.Copy !req
512. Brick wall.Copy !req
513. So I take a peek
into Madrigal Electromotive.Copy !req
514. Now, Madrigal
is based in Hanover, Germany...Copy !req
515. but they're
what they call "highly diversified."Copy !req
516. Industrial equipment, global shipping,
major construction...Copy !req
517. and a tiny little foothold
in American fast food...Copy !req
518. specifically a local chain.Copy !req
519. Pollos Hermanos.Copy !req
520. Okay. So what, right?
Boetticher's dead.Copy !req
521. I got no line
on who's been bankrolling him...Copy !req
522. or where his lab was.Copy !req
523. The whole thing's a snipe hunt,
right?Copy !req
524. But now I get this crazy idea...Copy !req
525. and I can't shake it.Copy !req
526. I mean, I stay up nights
staring at the ceiling...Copy !req
527. trying to make sense of it.
That napkin.Copy !req
528. I told you Boetticher's vegan.Copy !req
529. We're talking this guy
makes his own fermented lentil bread...Copy !req
530. or whatever the hell that is.Copy !req
531. What's a vegan doing
in a fried chicken joint?Copy !req
532. Maybe he's meeting somebody.Copy !req
533. Like who?Copy !req
534. Well, like, maybe...Copy !req
535. this guy.Copy !req
536. I mean, what do we know
about Gustavo Fring, huh?Copy !req
537. This whole
friend-of-law-enforcement thing?Copy !req
538. Could be a case of, "keep your
friends close but your enemies closer."Copy !req
539. He's got the money
to finance this operation.Copy !req
540. Maybe he's got the connections too.
Maybe, just maybe...Copy !req
541. he's our guy.Copy !req
542. Hank, no offense,
but I think you're really reaching.Copy !req
543. If your guy had his meeting at KFC...Copy !req
544. you wouldn't immediately assume
he's sitting down with Colonel Sanders.Copy !req
545. You know, I—Copy !req
546. I couldn't agree more, guys.Copy !req
547. Gustavo Fring, blue meth, you know.Copy !req
548. The whole thing is off-the-map nuts.Copy !req
549. I ought to be wearing a tinfoil hat,
you know?Copy !req
550. Except...Copy !req
551. I can't seem to wrap my mind
around this one little thing...Copy !req
552. and that is,
what are Gustavo Fring's fingerprints...Copy !req
553. doing
in Gale Boetticher's apartment?Copy !req
