Part 1: Comments on the relationship between several characters in the fifth season in 2016, the relationship between Hank's family and Lao Bai

The last few episodes of the fifth season are really I want to vomit, can people really be so disgusting? First of all, what I want to say is that Hank is definitely not arresting Lao Bai because of the concept of the supremacy of the law. On the contrary, he is actually a person who defies the law, condoning his wife to steal, hiring crary-8 as an eyeliner, or every time He solved cases, most of them went through an illegal stage to solve cases, and then what? Just to be immersed in the process of solving the case, there is no law in his eyes, and his respect for the law is not even as good as that of his partner. . . Secondly, think about it, Hank has something to protect in his heart? To say that Lao Bai's methods are ruthless, but Lao Bai has been guarding the bottom line of his home, and of course his own life, killing everyone who poses a threat to his life and family. . And Hank, after watching the next few episodes, I understand that he only pays attention to his own face, hypocritical, superficial, and then disgusting...not a family, not entering a family, his wife Mary is indeed a good match for him. .. Speaking of this, it is estimated that I will be sprayed, so don't rush to spray it first. Looking down, Hank always feels that he is the head of DEA, and Lao Bai is just a useless middle school teacher, and he will always feel pressure in his heart. So he can tell Lao Bai's son how talented and awesome he is, just like saying "Hey, boy, look at how good your uncle is and how useless your father is!" In showing off, in this sense of superiority that overwhelms his relatives, but one day, when he finds out that the person he has always looked down on has been playing with him, in fact, he is mentally retarded, can he accept it? Of course, if a person who really cares about this kind of kinship will be very angry at Lao Bai's deception, but the way to deal with it is probably to find Lao Bai, beat him to relieve his breath, that's all, Gu Nian If you go to your own family, and Laobai's lung cancer recurs, and he won't live long, then let it go, and then stop Laobai from making drugs, at most that's it. . . But, look at Hank's reaction. . . It's more uncomfortable than killing your own son. If you don't see it, then look at Mary's performance. She is simply an enlarged version of Hank's heart. In the past, he robbed people who were less than one year old. What are you doing? It's not that I feel that I have been deceived all the time, and then I can't accept it. I feel that I have suffered a big loss. When I am angry, I immediately want to vent my anger and take revenge. Beside the neurotic, oh, I am the one who is neurotic, that episode really gave me goosebumps... In the end, after Hank caught Lao Bai, he called his wife the first time, and the two of them laughed happily. . . I almost vomited in disgust.... Two people live in a fake world like this. On the surface, they are a family of four, but in reality, when they find out that they have been tricked, they immediately turn their faces and become enemies, don't tell me Hank respects the law, look at the first paragraph I wrote, he definitely didn't arrest him because of the law, just to say, "Look, Walter, I'll hold you down for the rest of my life, and in the end, I still won you." Bai, he wants to live a lot more frankly than them. Although he has been using and deceiving Jesse, we can see what is in Lao Bai's heart at a glance, and even if Hank wants to arrest him, he will recognize it, but we have never Understanding Hank is like in real life, those people who are very popular, make people feel very strong, and have a good relationship, unless there is an emergency, you still think that he is your good friend, okay Relatives.... The human heart can be disgusting to such a degree, and I have to say that the screenwriter's awesomeness can be portrayed so appropriately. Watching domestic court dramas, spy war dramas, etc., although the means inside may be more cruel and despicable, but, I have to say, the drama of Poison Master makes me feel that the ugliness of the human heart is around each of us. . . .

Part 2: 5 years later why I still insist that the Hank family is doing something wrong, even if he is fighting drugs for impartial law enforcement (2020 update)

—————————————————————

This film review was written by me 5 years ago. At that time, some people refuted it. The most classic refutation is basically that the old white deserved what he deserved. In the film and television dramas of criminal officials, there is not much left of the scum that has been completely washed by the above thinking. Well, let me tell a historical story:

Yue Fei had a general named Cao Rong. Cao Rong was captured by the Jin people when he was fighting for the gold. In order to save his life, he had to accept the persuasion to surrender, surrendered to the Jin people, and became a general of the Jin people. And Cao Rong had a son named Cao Ning, who was still under Yue Fei as a general.

Once Yue Fei and Jin Ren were fighting, and the father, son and father just happened to meet. Cao Ning took the initiative to ask Ying, "My father is in Jin Wei. I have seen him, so I will persuade him to surrender!"

Yue Fei thought about it, and he said that he could still be moved by affection, so he promised Cao Ning to come out, and Cao Ning's father also came out.

Unexpectedly, Cao Rong not only did not listen to the persuasion, but in turn persuaded his son Cao Ning to betray Yue Fei, surrender to the Jinren, and let him betray his country and nation.

Cao Ning was very young at the time, full of vigor, and when he heard this, he became very angry, "How shameless are you as a father? Do you still have a sense of honor when you are a traitor?" In a short while, he was shot to death by his father.

Cao Ning returned to the battle with a dignified look on his face, "Cao Rong rebelled against the Lord and asked for glory, I have killed my relatives righteously, and have already killed him."

Guess what Yue Fei said?

Yue Fei pointed at his nose and scolded him severely.

Yue Fei said: "Yes, Cao Rong rebelled against the Lord and asked for glory, that's right, but how could you, as a son, kill your own father? You're outrageous, you're killing human relations! We'll need him to kill him. You?"

You said Cao Ning did it right?

According to the general principle, it is absolutely true that treasonous officials can be punished by everyone, but if it were you, would you be willing to be friends with someone who even killed your own father? The mistake is that you will only consider one angle when considering a problem, and will not comprehensively look at a problem from different angles and levels.

Many people only consider right and wrong, but they don't consider what human nature is like, what kind of impression he brings to his classmates and friends, Hank in Breaking Bad is only concerned with stretching himself The righteousness, but he was too cruel to his brother-in-law, Laobai, and pushed him directly to the point of doom.

Do you know what Lao Bai's family thinks after all his relatives and other relatives are ruined? They will think that you are righteous or unjust, they don't know, but they will be afraid of you and will not trust you, because no one is a saint, when everyone is wrong, everyone has selfish desires, so they will never dare to approach you again. , they are afraid that you will be selfless and sell them at that time. If you talk a little more, they will even think that you are an out-and-out villain in order to highlight yourself, or even climb up for yourself, stepping on your own brother-in-law as a step, and taking other people's misfortune to fulfill yourself. At this time, someone may have said, no, Hank said that after receiving and sending Laobai's drug-trafficking behavior, he will take the blame and resign. I don't understand Hank very much. Your wife has stolen several times. One eye is closed, the old white has made a fortune and lived a good life. You have to put him to death, so I have to doubt whether his promise of resignation can be realized.

Don't blame them for looking at you this way, even Cao Cao did this. At the beginning, Miao Ze told the news, saying that Duke Cao, my master is Huang Kui, and he will rebel against you soon. When I turned around, I killed Miao Ze, Miao Ze said how did you kill me, Duke Cao, I saved you, Cao Cao said that you even sold your master, don’t look at you for saving me, I still look down on you, you Kind of people, to be killed.

In the past dynasties, there has never been a good whistleblower, let alone friends and relatives who are familiar with you, even the people who deal with this matter, although they will handle it fairly, but they will definitely look down on you behind their backs.

Human nature is hierarchical. A person must first be a good son, father, husband, friend, and then a person of noble morals. This is like having a foundation before a tall building. You don't even have the love of classmates that you can't look up and see, and you don't even have the compassion that one person will be destroyed. You say that you are doing it for the country and education, and you say that you are doing it for the sake of eight feet away. Who would believe it? If you don't have a small character, how can you have a big character?

A person can't even be ruthless with his own relatives, friends, and classmates around him. Even if he climbs up, he will encounter great resistance, and there will be people everywhere to interfere, because no one believes that you are noble and kind, but only think that you are human. The quality is inferior to the core. This is a bigger truth than the big truth you believe in.
