Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAaron Paul (Jesse Pinkman) revealed that in the scene where Tuco Salamanca throws Jesse through the screen door of his house, he actually hit his head so hard that he got a concussion. Raymond Cruz (who plays Tuco) didn't realize this and carried on throwing him to the ground and hitting him in the ribs and face, mistaking his genuine pleas to stop for scripted acting. The take made the final cut.
- GoofsWhen Tuco is aiming for the cow in one scene, he has a scope in his rifle. In the next scene you can clearly see no scope on the rifle, just the carrying handle.
- Quotes
Tuco Salamanca: Tell me what you did, Walter!
Jesse Pinkman: Jesus, I don't wanna die! NO!
Tuco Salamanca: TELL ME WHAT YOU DID!
Walter White: We tried to poison you. We tried to poison you because you are an insane, degenerate piece of filth and you deserve to die.

Featured review
Intensely hot grilling
'Breaking Bad' is one of the most popular rated shows on IMDb, is one of those rarities where every season has either been very positively received or near-universally acclaimed critically and where all of my friends have said nothing but great things about.
Very few shows in recent memory had me so hooked from the very start that before the week was over the whole show had been watched, especially when for a lot of shows now airing watching one episode all the way through can be an endeavour. 'Breaking Bad' had that effect on me, and its reputation as one of the best, consistently brilliant and most addictive shows in many years (maybe even ever) is more than deserved in my eyes. Its weakest season is perhaps the first season, understandable as any show's first season is the one where things are still settling.
Actually everything is established remarkably from the very start, but once the writing and characterisation becomes even meatier the show reaches even higher levels.
"Seven Thirty Seven" was a brilliant start for Season 2. A standard also there in "Grilled" and even stronger even, delivering further on the tension and meat than there already was.
Visually, "Grilled" is both stylish and beautiful, with photography and editing that are cinematic quality and put a lot of films today to shame, where there are a lot of visually beautiful ones but also some painfully amateurish looking ones. The music always has the appropriate mood, never too intrusive, never too muted.
The writing for "Grilled" is a fine example of how to have a lot of style but also to have a lot of substance. The dialogue throughout is thought-provoking and tense, while also have a darkly wicked sense of humour, nail-biting tension and heart-tugging pathos. The story, on top of being one of the show's most tense up to this point, is texturally rich, intimate, tense and layered, with the pace of it consistently deliberate but taut. It also contains another unforgettably killer ending that one does not expect.
Can't say anything bad about the acting. Bryan Cranston is phenomenal as one of the most fascinating anti-heroes, or even of any kind of character, in either film or television. Aaron Paul has never been better and Anna Gunn is affecting. The characters are compelling in their realism. Tuco is an absolute psychopath here, played with sinister intensity and relish.
In conclusion, a grilling that reaches boiling point in its intensity. 10/10 Bethany Cox
