This is the BB season where the network teach you crime doesn't pay...

There are good parts to the episode but the whole idea of robbing the train seems ridiculously contrived.

Too many logical flaws to it. What if the train car isn't in the correct place where they are? Surely there are loads of other options to get what they need? No need for this crazy heist. It seems forced and ridiculous.

Overall it seems this season is just set up for Walt to lose the plot. Largely because the network can't show him getting away with it and living happily ever after...

Seasons 1-4 pretty much 10/10 for me but season 5 heading for shark jump territory.

I watched Better Call Saul before watching BB and the last half season of that was also a huge step down in quality.
