Brilliant review! It's a total shame there are not more people around watching BB and appreciating it. The show is pure gold for everyone who loves to analyze.
I loved your interpretations of Jesse and later Jane as the Fly's in Walter's live. I guess chasing something elusive, trying to contain the contamination (in vain) is the tragedy of Walter's life.
It was so incredibly moving when he mapped out the perfect moment, where he should have died, before he went to see Jesse and Jane. Doing the rational thing but not at all the right one.
I also loved the many little details you also mention in your review. That shot in the end where you see that Jesse took his shoes of ? It's amazing how much care that little gesture signifies, after all that futile hunting in the lab and Jesse's worries that Walter might be worse again.
