Teaser
A tribal police officer is dispatched to investigate the possible disappearance
of an elderly woman that resides on a reservation outside of Albuquerque. At her
house, he finds a body and evidence that someone else has taken up residence. "
Whoever's in there, show yourself!" the officer shouts. One of the Cousins, Leon
el, steps out of the house, distracting the cop while the other sneaks up behind
the officer and attacks him with an axe.
Summary
3x06 Sunset
Walter watching a model condo for purchase
Skyler White calls Walter White to discuss the signed divorce papers she was sur
prised to find in Holly White's crib. The conversation turns to the use of drug
money to pay child support. "You'd be making us accessories after the fact," con
tends Skyler. "How do you think we've been paying our bills these last six month
s?" asks Walt. Walt hangs up. He's looking at a model condo, which he offers to
buy, furnishings and all. "Name one thing in this world that is not negotiable,"
Walt says.
Meanwhile, the Cousins enter Los Pollos Hermanos. Gustavo Fring watches as they
sit down without ordering anything.
Over at Jesse's, the blue meth Jesse Pinkman made without Walt dazzles Badger. J
esse invites Badger and Skinny Pete to rejoin him in the business. This time the
y'll "sell it safe," he says. "We don't get greedy." The plan: Badger will have
Clovis fix up the RV and Skinny Pete will procure supplies. Hank Schrader, on st
akeout in his SUV down the street, observes Skinny and Badger departing.
Walt drives Walter White Jr. to school. "It's not like I get a vote," complains
Walter, Jr. about the divorce. "I am the man that I am, son," Walt responds, add
ing that he's "actually feeling very good about the future."
Gus arrives at Los Pollos Hermanos and sees the Cousins. "They're ba-aack," says
the manager, wondering if she should call the police. "They're doing nothing wr
ong," Gus replies.
At his first day of work at the superlab, Walt meets his new assistant, Gale Boe
tticher, a specialist in X-ray crystallography with a libertarian attitude regar
ding the use of drugs by consenting adults.
"I love the lab," Gale enthuses after he and Walt create their first batch. "It'
s all still magic." Prompted by Walt, Gale recites "When I Heard the Learn'd Ast
ronomer," Walt Whitman's poem about the exhilaration of experiencing scientific
wonders first-hand. "Yes, I am a nerd," Gale laughs.
Meanwhile Hank, still staking out Jesse's house, receives a call from Marie Schr
ader. He needs to stay put, Hank explains, until Jesse leads him to the RV or do
es something illegal. "I, for one, can think of someone who might know something
," Marie says.
At his condo, Walt gets a call from Hank. The DEA agent wonders if Walt remember
s his former student Jesse Pinkman having an RV. As Hank explains his theory, Wa
lt realizes that Hank is closing in on his partner.
Walt calls Jesse, but hangs up before speaking out of fear of the line being tap
ped. He calls Saul and announces that Hank knows about the RV, "which is covered
with my fingerprints," Walt says. "It's only a matter of time before he tracks
it down." "So get rid of it!" says Saul.
Walt races to the repair yard and orders Clovis and Badger to destroy the RV. "I
know a guy that'll wipe this off the planet," Clovis says.
Badger tips off Jesse about Walt's plan. Jesse blasts out of his house and drive
s off, unaware he's being trailed by the tenacious Hank.
Back at Los Pollos Hermanos, Gus, frustrated with the lurking Cousins, approache
s them and arranges an off-site meeting: "Sunset."
At a junkyard, Walt discusses the demolition of the RV with the junkyard owner,
Old Joe, who assures Walt it will be destroyed and recycled into patio furniture
. Walt is alone in the RV when Jesse barges in. Seconds later, Hank drives up. "
You led him right to us," says Walt.
3x06 Sunset 2
Walt and Jesse inside the RV as Hank is investigating outside
Hank pounds the RV's door. "Last chance to do it the easy way," he tells Jesse.
Walt strains to hold the door shut as Hank tries to pry it open with a crowbar.
"Got a warrant?" Old Joe asks Hank. "I don't need one if I've got probable cause
, counselor," Hank replies. The owner and Hank spar over whether the RV is a veh
icle or a domicile. If the latter, its residents would be constitutionally prote
cted against unlawful search and seizure. Hank rips some duct tape off the door,
revealing bullet holes from Walt's confrontation with Emilio Koyama and Krazy 8
. "There was a firearm discharged inside of this domicile," Hank says. Walt orde
rs Jesse to reply, "How could you have known that they were there before you too
k off the tape?" and Jesse complies. "This is my own private domicile," Jesse co
ntinues, "and I will not be harassed... bitch!" Hank heads to his car and calls
ASAC George Merkert to obtain a warrant. Walt, meanwhile, makes his own call.
Minutes later, Hank's cell phone rings. A woman identifying herself as an Albuqu
erque police officer informs him that Marie has had a car accident and is being
airlifted to a hospital. Hank leaps into his SUV and drives off.
At his office, Saul's secretary Francesca hangs up the phone, telling her boss,
"You're gonna have to start paying me more."
Hank rushes into the hospital looking for Marie. Through his panic, he finally r
ealizes his cell phone is ringing. It's Marie, checking in to make plans for din
ner. Hank realizes he was tricked.
Back at the junkyard, a forklift rips apart the RV and loads it into a crusher.
At sunset, Gus and the Cousins meet in the desert. Walt may have betrayed Tuco S
alamanca, Gus reminds them, but someone else pulled the trigger. "The DEA is off
-limits," says one Cousin. "As a show of respect," Gus replies, he will make an
exception. "The agent's name is Hank Schrader. May his death satisfy you."

Trivia
Larry Hankin (Old Joe), like Bryan Cranston, Anna Gunn and Bob Odenkirk, is
also a Seinfeld alum. Hankin's character auditions for and is cast in the role o
f "Kramer" in the fourth-season episodes "The Pilot, Part 1" and "Part 2".
The painting on the wall of the model apartment has been seen before: it was
on the wall of the doctor's office in the Pilot.
In a phone conversation with Walter, Skyler sarcastically refers to her unha
ppiness as "completely out of the clear blue sky unhappiness." It is unclear whe
ther she intentionally referenced Walter's Blue Sky meth.
Walt makes a sandwich, and takes off the crust, something Domingo Gallardo "
Krazy 8" Molina did.
This is the last appearance of the RV before its return in the flashback in
"Ozymandias".
Continuity error: In this episode Saul doesn't know about the RV, but he was
kidnapped in it in Better Call Saul, and afterwards presumably driven back in i
t.
