How the Breaking Bad finale lied to you (and why you were so easily fooled)
This mostly just boils down to exaggerated nit-picking and it is quite obvious the author wasn't paying very close attention to ALL of the details of the final season, and yes they can be quite easily over looked. For one thing, there certainly were guards outside the Nazi compound, a couple men (at LEAST ONE man) were ordered to stay outside and keep a look out. They were the first to get killed by the gun after the trunk popped open. Also, the gang had little reason to think Mr. White was anything but sick, desperate, and actually expecting to leave with $1 million. Besides, they were just going to kill him and he was seriously out-numbered. What actually occurred could not have been expected by any of them. They are too stupid to seriously consider his motives/mindset, or to expect the unexpected (like they should have). In my mind, they really just want to withhold his keys so that he has no chance of escape by vehicle, and so they can move his car after they kill him (also why Kenny could care less where he parked). They only take his wallet and keys because that was all that was on him. They also checked for a wire, just for the hell of it, but tearing up his car from the inside out could have made WALT suspicious. He retrieves the keys slowly and carefully from across the pool table, and actually grabs the keys once the door is opening and Pinkman enters, everyone is distracted and the sound of the door opening, along with the shackles that Jesse is carrying on him drones out Walt picking up the keys. Jack has to show, unequivocally, that what Walt is accusing is not the case and that he'd never treat a "rat" as anything more than a slave. Because, despite being a fascist Nazi bigot, he still has his ideals/values and he will NOT be insulted and called a liar (think he made that pretty clear). Final words of Todd I did find interesting, indeed. Todd is a peculiar character, though. I would say he is not only a psychopath, but also a tad naive. Or, perhaps not so much. He may have simply been awe-struck by what had just occurred. Remember, Todd had a lot of respect for Mr. White. Todd was the reason they left him with a barrel, instead of just taking it all. Arguably, Todd really didn't want his Uncle Jack to kill Mr. White, but in this case he simply had no say- and/or kept complacent due his infatuation for Lydia. One might even argue Todd had more respect for Mr. White than his own uncle. Nothing suggests to me that Todd genuinely would have missed his Uncle Jack or Kenny very much. Mr. White had more than proved himself worthy enough for any budding sociopath to look up to. Also, yes Walt HAD been to the compound before. That was where they discussed putting down Jesse in the first place. Considering these facts, the Finale makes a lot more sense. If you're going to nit-pick something, it would help to get the details correct in the first place.— January 30, 2014 10:31 p.m.
