    I don't think it's meant to fit any theory. Just one of the subtle things the writers threw in as another thing showing how Walt is just like the guy he spent an entire season trying to kill.

      I was specifically speaking to Kreich's post
      There is another trait that Walt picked up from Gus.

        You're right. There is no way that Walt could have known Gus put a towel down before he threw up down in Mexico. Maybe it's a supernatural or egotistical thing you get from being a drug lord.

        There is no doubt that Walt picked up on Gus' hygiene and neatness routines and this towel thing is one of them. During his first first round of chemo, Walt never put a towel down to kneel on. Although, there is nothing saying that Walt never saw Gus throw up before, or even kneel for some other reason.

          I think this also applies to the Walt/Gus thing.

            Ok, this thread is becoming too much of a mess to read. Spoiler tags left and right, some for actual spoilers for later in the season, some are just ideas, and some are old things that people are just being careful about. We really need to label what things may be safe to look at. Kind of difficult to read a thread where every other post is a spoiler tag and you don't know which ones are clickable.

            Edit: I looked again and it isn't as bad as I thought, but still, there is the occasional one where you don't know if you should click it or not.

              In this bonus episode of Talking Bad, they kind of discuss the Walt and Gus thing. Vince acknowledges that Walt never saw Gus throw up, but he attributes it to the supernatural or something else.

              Near the end of the episode, Vince talks about how the writers thought Walt poisoned Brock.

              It's 15:00 long.

              Watch the latest full episodes and video extras for AMC shows: The Walking Dead, Better Call Saul, Killing Eve, Fear the Walking Dead, Mad Men and more.

                Excellent insight to the show.

                  The whole trait thing is just writing. It's a nod to the viewers. People expect actual explanations for everything. I don't get it.


                  Anyway, two of my favorite scenes from Walt are:

                  "Stay out of my territory."
                  "Say my name...You're damn right."

                  And now.

                  "If you aren't sure who I am, wouldn't the best course be to tread lightly?"

                  Just wow.
                  "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

                  "You'll not find more penny-wise/pound-foolish behavior than in Major League Baseball." - Rob Neyer

                            Does anyone else find the route they are going with Jesse to be extremely awful? The whole depressed-crybaby-preachy thing got super annoying. I feel like they took it to the extreme, and are just ruining his character.

                              That quote certainly was NOT stated in the form of a question.

                              Also, he says "You're ******* right" in response to Declan saying his name and not just "damn."
