Favorite Breaking Bad moments

In honor of the season 4 premiere, which was shockingly awesome, I thought I'd list my favorite moments from this show. There have been a ton of shocking things that happened, and they keep finding ways to do it. So, caution- spoilers ahead. Also, these aren't in order.

1. Jesse destroys a corpse in his bathtub with acid
Walt gave Jesse very specific instructions for this task. He had to get a certain kind of plastic tub for this. Jesse isn't that bright and ignored the part about the tub, thinking his bathtub would be stronger than plastic. As a result, we all got a horrific lesson in science that episode. The lesson- always listen to Walt!

2. Walt blows up Tucco's office with a piece of meth
Walt confronts gangster Tucco in this episode, who had just beaten Jesse to a pulp. He attempts to sell him some meth, but as an insurance policy, throws in some explosives for good measure. As Walt says to Tucco- "It's just a little tweak of the chemistry". Boom!

3. Tio's Bell
In one of the best episodes of the show, Walt and Jesse are held at gunpoint by crazy Tucco. Tucco has his Tio watch them. Tio appears to be unresponsive, due to being in a wheelchair. That doesn't stop him from overhearing Walt and Jesse plan to murder Tucco and escape. He tries to warn Tucco with his bell. Ding! Who would've thought a bell could be that suspensul?

4. Hank's shoot out with the cousins
Walt's brother in law Hank, who works for the DEA, becomes the targets of international assassins who were after Walt. Someone alerts him to their attack exactly one minute before it happens. The result is one of the most suspenseful shoot outs ever. Black Death, indeed.

5. Walt kills some dealers
At the end of season 3, Jesse figures out who exactly killed his dealer Combo in season 2. It's two rival dealers who happen to work for their new boss, Gus. Jesse decides to get revenge anyway, knowing there's a good chance he won't survive. Walt shows up at the last minute and murders them both. He crosses a line he hadn't before and there's no going back for him now. It's truly a shocker.
