***!!!SPOILER ALERT!!!***
When I was first watching the scene where Walt starts begging for his life I was thinking to myself, "Oh no, Walt's acting like a bitch." But then it dawned on me, it was an act and part of his plan. He had to call Jessie, that was his only hope. The only way they'd let him call Jessie is if he was giving him up to them. But why would he give up Jessie that easily? It wouldn't be believable after all the events leading up to this point. So Walt had to beg like a bitch to really sell the story that he was selling Jessie out. Any one agree?
I totally agree and I think we were all thinking the same thing "oh no here it goes - Walts finally bitching out", until he said "your boss is gonna need me" with such cold, deliberate, matter-of-factly, badassness. That was one of my favorite parts. I love it how the show is pretty good at making an ass out of me every time I try to predict it.
