I could have sworn I had made a thread about this a while back. I absolutely love this show. It's my new favorite.
I rewatched the last episode today because I'm very bored. The acting was superior to that of past episodes. Dialog accomplished a lot. Finally some reflection on Walt's extraordinary journey. He's finally got emotions again. The father-son bonding was also much needed. The conflict between our two heroes was tearing the show apart for a while.
And of course the allegory of the whole episode. Walt and Jesse are as a fly to the cartel. Or to Hank's DEA. This episode was extremely foreboding. The criminals and cops are all trapped together because of "positive pressure," and it may take a while for the cops to swat the criminals, but they aren't going anywhere, and eventually either they fall into one of the cartel's vats or get swatted by the cops. There's no way out.
Again I say, spectacular episode, and not filler as most people have been saying.
