Did you know
- TriviaAaron Paul has stated that this episode was his favorite from Breaking Bad (2008).
- GoofsIn Down (2009) and Breakage (2009), it is established that Jesse's dealers were selling meth for $2500/ounce, of which Walt and Jesse kept $2000, split evenly between them. Then in Negro y Azul (2009), Walt tells Jesse to raise the prices. Here when Walt asks Jesse what they're selling meth for these days, Jesse says $40,000/pound, i.e. $2500/ounce. Walt looks surprised that it's so high, to which Jesse replies, "Hey, you said raise the prices." But that figure (which based on Walt saying, "minus distribution charges" while performing his calculations is the street price) and the math on each of them making $672,000 for 42 pounds of meth shows that the street price is still $2500/ounce and that he and Jesse still keep $2000 of that - exactly the pricing they started with.

Featured review
An episode about survival
After the introduction to Saul Goodman and the solving of his first case, Walter White goes doing a CAT scan for seeing the state of his illness a notices a big black hole on a lung, so there is no more hope for him. Having spent most of his money for Saul Walt realizes that he has to cook again so enlists the help of Jesse just when he had to go with his girlfriend Jane to the Georgia O'Keefe museum but Jesse cancels the appointment and follows his former teacher for 4 days in the desert for preparing more meth possible in a single work session. Once in the desert Walt and Jesse cook frantically: after two days they already produced 19 packs of meth. Their happiness is short lived tho when the RV's battery turns off because Jesse left the car's keys in the ignition keeping the battery on for two days. After stopping a fire with water, Jesse and Walter are left alone in the desert far from every communication point and resources. After one day and thanks to his great knowledge in chemistry, Walt manages to create some cells that manage to restart the RV. Once again in town, Walt discovers the results of the CAT scan but finds with great joy that the tumor is in remission but despite the joy of his family Walt has an anger attack in the bathroom.
This was an episode that showed us, once again, that Jesse Pinkman has an heart and that despite some trouble tries to help restart the RV. And the ending was quite unexpected. Among the best episodes of season 2.
