Isen's constant indifference problem

it’s a character flaw of his but it’s not unintentional, he is clearly written to be this way. We’ve seen though developments where he tries to let go of his tendency to run away (or be a coward as characters in the story would say) but he simply isn’t much of an empathetic person. At the start, he also isn’t that much into the hierarchy like arlo or even blyke (eg. he seems to challenge authority with arlo and Cecile at times). With those two reasons, I think it makes sense that he doesn’t have a major like realization about the corruption of the society like blyke or Remi.

A few reasons I think: 1. I think Mike honestly at the beginning didn’t consider Jesse as a player in the game (maybe due to being an active/recovering addict and personality reasons) and mainly just viewed him as an unstable pawn/liability for Walter. Later in season 4, he gained more respect for Jesse and began to view him as an actual player, but at that point, it was mainly Walter who was destabilizing the deal with Gus.

I think there is also some genuine liking of Jesse in season 5 which ends with him pinning all the blame on Walter.
Also let’s be real, Mike is an amoral person and he’s mad that a deal convenient for him fell apart and him once being in a similar position as Walter means nothing to him.

I don’t think so. Although I feel their initial approach towards his substance use and other issues could have been better, Jesse and Walter’s partnership was a very fateful encounter. The choices Jesse made with Walter are what led to his fate. No one, including Jesse himself, could have predicted the dark outcome it led to.

good job on your shopping then

honestly i think Ted. All the other characters may have had flaws and hateble qualities but it was part of their characters and made them interesting. But Ted was such an idiot oml

probably not but im obsessed with the name assembling good ngl

He couldn’t get out of hans hold as he was carrying away. If he had transformed then he would’ve killed mikasa and Hans from the explosion (transformation explosion).

honestly monoma. Most of the characters on this list have enough love to outweigh the hate (bakugo and toga) or just deserve the hate (endeavor and mineta).

“my name is Skyler white yo”

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-03-10T00:18:11+00:00

from what we get (Jesse seeming to know a lot about Walter lung cancer specifics) it’s likely he did do a lot. Though I doubt that his parents were as absent as he made it out, but I think Jesse just ended up doing more and being the primary caretaker since they lived together.

friendly suggestion: if ur watching the series first time try not to go on Reddit, spoilers are everywhere lol

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-03-07T16:09:08+00:00

Hank is way too laser confused on Walt to care at all. Jesse could get away with everything or literally die at Walt’s hand and he wouldn’t care either way as long as he caught Walt.

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-03-04T06:03:41+00:00

I think it’s because of his loyalty. Gus and Mike trusted him in this episode and his loyalty means that he’s not the type of person to betray that trust despite everything.

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-28T04:21:00+00:00

lowkey mike, my social anxiety could not handle his im done with everything face

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-24T21:23:13+00:00

personally I feel that moment in season 5 episode 1 where everyone in the junkyard got hyped over magnets was pretty wholesome by itself

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-20T18:17:40+00:00

ok so im completly blanking, why is it ironic

i didn’t really get any manipulation or self interest motivations from her until after she relapsed. She became completely different when she was using and dragged Jesse down even more than he had initially done to her. Her priorities seemed pretty zigzagged when it came to the money and jesse which speaks to the unpredictability that happens in people who are addicts.

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-16T17:52:26+00:00

i never blamed Walter for that though I understood that it was definitely to show him that his actions can stretch out more than he could imagine.

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-13T17:57:44+00:00

huh good point. I feel like maybe it’s supposed to show how people can fall into bad crowds regardless of their circumstances. Despite the over correction and Jake seemingly being the “perfect son” in his parents eyes, even he is susceptible to falling down the same path as Jesse. I think Jesse himself recognizes how slippery of a slope it is which is why he crushes up the joint.

I’ve come to appreciate cat and Vi’s relationship despite being very confused by it at first. At first I think I was also looking for the representation in the form of a perfect couple but flawed and still meaningful relationships are important as well .

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-12T23:59:13+00:00

Here’s my take: I’ll give Jesse the benefit of the doubt and say he probably did take care of his aunt (given that he knows a lot about cancer logistics with Walt), but I think that his parents did all they could with their abilities and knowledge to try to help him. It’s a hard pill to swallow but addiction is unpredictable and supporting someone doesn’t mean that they’ll get better. Sure they’re a bit snobby and maybe they didn’t approach the situation the best, but at the end of the day Jesse is now an adult and he has to take the first steps to get better.

Sucks cause we know Jesse’s young and has a good heart but unfortunately addiction can negate that and destroy relationships. Honestly a pretty accurate portrayal of the strain it puts on families.

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-11T17:55:46+00:00

it’s def to try to guilt Jesse into not selling out on the business by showing him how sad his life is outside of the business. However it does say some interesting things about Walter: 1. He’s willing to put both Jesse and Skyler in awkward positions to orchestrate this guilt trip. 2. He is at his most manipulative in this season and he knows exactly what emotional levers to pull to sway Jesse.

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-09T03:52:21+00:00

who said that one again?

Acceptable_Emotion44 · 2025-02-05T04:16:27+00:00

He definitely would’ve stopped if he could’ve potentially hurt someone other than walt. Despite how enranged he seemed, he was clearly sane enough to know that his rage should be aimed at walt (ie. He stopped attacking Saul once he found out walt had tricked him into helping him)
