Andrew Martin Andrew Martin This is definitely the right answer. Jesse clearly used the digging ruse to trick Tucker. One of my favorite scenes! Featured on Meta. Now live: A fully responsive profile. Related Unaccustomed to waiting around and jittery through withdrawal, Jesse Pinkman insists on taking the direct approach. After failing to convince the dealers inside that he's a buyer, Jesse takes a shovel and begins digging a hole in front of their house.
Tucker exits the property and curiously asks what Jesse's digging for. Through something vaguely resembling a Jedi mind trick, Jesse encourages Tucker to take over working on the hole, and let him inside the house, impressing Mike, who watches from the car. The ploy can be credited entirely to Jesse's in-depth knowledge of meth addiction.
Not only does he have extensive experience selling to long-time users, Jesse's also a recovering addict, giving him unique insight into the mindset of Tucker and his gun-toting friend.
Having briefly witnessed Tucker's condition when he tried posing as a buyer, Jesse realizes his target's rationality is impaired, and knows that where a regular person might be angered by a stranger digging up their yard, Tucker's curiosity will be piqued. Jesse maintains the act by not paying Tucker any mind when he comes outside, just continuing the dig.
Jesse also knows all too well how meth addiction leads to heightened paranoia, so when Tucker asks why his yard is being dug up, Jesse presses exactly the right buttons. Pinkman leads with " you know why ," playing into whatever delusions Tucker might be suffering, and allowing his meth-fueled imagination to run wild.
Despite seeming not to care whether he lives or dies, Walt's worry has set Jesse on edge so he positions his keys between his fingers to use as a probable weapon. He watches nervously as Mike exits the car and grabs a shovel from the trunk. Is this it? But Mike passes Jesse by and starts digging. After a few moments, Mike pulls a bag of money out of the ground and tosses it in the trunk.
Mike tells Jesse that they have six more collections to make today and he wants to have it done before dark. At home , Hank Schrader jokes with Tim about the oddball personality that Gale's notebook evokes: "it's like Scarface had sex with Mr. Hank admits to having "a history" with Jesse referring to the savage beat-down he delivered last season but doubts that Jesse murdered Gale.
Mike makes his next pickup at an abandoned warehouse and finds Jesse standing guard when he returns to the car. As the pickups—shown in a sped-up montage set to humorous music—continue, Jesse becomes increasingly bored and frustrated. If he's riding shotgun as "the guy" on this assignment, then Mike should tell him what they're doing and why, or at very least get a little conversation going to help relieve his boredom.
Mike abruptly pulls the car over and barks that in no way is Jesse "the guy" implying that Victor, whom Gus killed, had been his guy. There may be some reason Gus has for sending Jesse on this mission, but Mike does not know it. In the lab, Walt has difficulty managing both his and Jesse's portions of the prep work. After starting the cook Walt returns home to sign papers finalizing the loan to buy the car wash. For them to succeed going forward, Skyler tells Walt, they have to be completely honest with each other.
Skyler then plays her phone messages and hears Walt say that he loves her. The two stare at each other meaningfully for a moment, then rush into the bedroom in the heat of passion. Later, Walter Jr. Skyler frets over Walter Jr. Walt kisses Skyler in reply. Later, back at the lab , Walt drops a barrel of methylamine while struggling with the forklift.
Fed up, he screams at the security camera that the cook is a two-man job.
