I always felt that season 2 was when this series really started to take off, and this episode is one of the finest examples of that. We continue to see Walt's attempts to hide his dealings and motivations not only from his wife, but from Jesse as well. The way he manipulates Jesse into cooking with him in this episode, and hides what he is doing from his wife really just adds layers to his character. I felt we still saw part of why Walt was doing all of this (for his family, at least that's what we thought at the time) but by the end of the episode I think it was the real catapult into Walt becoming Heisenberg as he finds out he is in remission and (eventually) will go full bore into the drug business. Just such a great example of storytelling, acting and cinematography within this episode. BB at it's best, because this episode is a shining example of what made this series the best of all-time.
