Show Notes

In this episode of pplpod, we dive deep into Breaking Bad Season 5, Episode 12, "Rabid Dog." The tension in Albuquerque hits a breaking point as Walter White frantically tries to cover up Jesse Pinkman’s attempt to burn down the White family home, spinning a lie about a gas pump malfunction to Skyler White and Walter Jr.. But the real danger lies in the shadows: we discuss the shocking revelation that Hank Schrader intervened just in time, convincing Jesse to turn informant and wear a wire to entrap Heisenberg.

We analyze the moral shifts in this episode, from Skyler urging Walt to "deal with" the threat Jesse poses, to Hank’s callous willingness to sacrifice Jesse’s life if it means catching Walt on tape. Finally, we break down the suspenseful failed meet-up in the plaza and Walt’s chilling decision to call Todd Alquist for a permanent solution. Join us for this essential Breaking Bad recap as the series races toward its finale.
