But at the end, I found out that it was Hank who found a copy of "Leaves of Grass" that Gale gave to Uncle Bai in the toilet of Uncle Bai's house. I think it fits Uncle Bai's character quite well, conceited, and extremely conceited in the field of chemistry. Especially after his achievements were used by others to create a company, he wanted to prove his excellence. From the "This is my territory" when the punks were warned at the beginning of the second season, to "Say my name!" and "I am the best drug maker in the country" that appeared in this season. All reflect Uncle Bai conceit. So when I received a book from Gale, who also graduated from a famous university in the field of chemistry, it was very reasonable to keep it. I can even imagine Uncle Bai sitting on the toilet and flipping it from time to time. The complacent look of this collection of poems.
Let's talk about "Leaves of Grass", which is a collection of poems by Walt Whitman, and the name of EP08 "Gliding over all" is also the name of a poem by Walt Whiteman, which also comes from "The Collection of Leaves", literally translated as "Gliding over all," the full poem reads:
Gliding over all, through all,
Through Nature, Time, and Space,
As a ship on the waters advancing,
The voyage of the soul--not life alone,
Death, many deaths I' ll sing.
Try flipping
"through everything, through everything,
through nature, time and space,
Like a ship that rides the wind and waves,
a voyage of souls, not only the
death of a lonely life, I cry for so many deaths. "
I can put Uncle Bai's murderous intention in S05 into this "passing everything" thing, and I can clearly feel that Uncle Bai has become more and more ruthless since he killed the fried chicken man. Compared with the end of the third season, listening to it on TV When the news that the little boy was killed, Uncle Bai drove the two murderers of a child to the ground and shot them. This season, I also saw the news of the little boy being shot on TV. Uncle turned off the TV, and even whistled when he was cooking. After the fanboy quit, Tod, the murderer who shot the little boy, was able to cook with him. The world is different.
Compared with the previous seasons, Uncle Bai is still the one who will be there. When he was angry, the chemistry teacher who only dared to vent his anger on the iron block in the hospital bathroom (SO5EP08 also gave a close-up of the flattened iron block), now, Uncle Bai has been able to pull out the iron block when he is angry. The gun was shot at Mike in the car. Then to the tragic death of ten prisoners within 2 minutes that Uncle Bai arranged and strictly enforced. Uncle Bai's murderous intention has passed everything.
And in the opening chapter of EP08, the close-up of the fly, let me It was linked to the episode in S3 where he played a whole episode of flies with the fanboy in LAB under the drive of perfectionism. At that time, with Uncle Bai's rigorous attitude and meticulous spirit, he could still be regarded as a chemist. In this season, Uncle Bai just stared blankly at the fly, and when TOD came, he went to deal with Mike's body together. Obviously, he couldn't care so much anymore. Simply put, I think that Bai Bai Uncle's state and state of mind in this season, even if there is another fly in the LAB, he will not care about it.
The influence of "The Godfather" seems to exist in every season, they feel that they can just simply make drugs and not It's actually impossible to hurt anyone. What really made me feel that Uncle Bai changed completely was when he shouted "I killed Gus". The meticulous teacher White is long gone, and through five seasons, he has transformed into a monster called Heisenberg who is a cold-blooded, brutal murderer whose drugs are exported overseas.
Therefore, in this self-inflated state of mind and mental state, it may be more accurate to say Heisenberg. I think it is reasonable to make such a mistake. A simple "I'm out" obviously Uncle Bai couldn't make atonement, which also explained why Hank discovered the poetry book after Uncle Bai decided not to wash his hands. From the small details in the play, to the echo of the title and content of EP08, I think the screenwriter is still very attentive.
As a family, don't be surprised if you don't like it.
