Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFollowing comments in this episode about sending DEA agent Hank "on a trip to Belize" - meaning murder him - the Belize Tourism Board actually offered free vacations to Vince Gilligan and eight of the shows's cast as PR stunt to help confirm the Central American country's image as a safe spot for tourists.
- GoofsWalt buys a lotto ticket with the coordinates of where he buried the money. However, next to the numbers on the ticket are the letters "QP", indicating a Quick Pick. If Walt played his specific numbers on the lotto ticket, it is not a Quick Pick.
- Quotes
Walter White: Hank knows. That's not nothing.
Saul Goodman: Have you given any thought to sending him out on a trip to Belize?
Walter White: Belize?
Saul Goodman: Yeah, Belize, you know where Mike went to.
Walter White: Saul, you'd better not be saying what I think you're saying. Hank is family!
Saul Goodman: I'm just throwing thoughts out there, this is a safe room.
Walter White: Jesus, send him to Belize. I'll send you to Belize.

Jesse, having not a single line of dialogue over all 47 minutes, sinks into one of his all too frequent depression states once again, which wasn't exactly a brilliant or original idea, but at least serves as a half-decent reason to get him involved in the big plot currently going on. This big plot is, highly understandably considering the occurrences in the previous two episodes, still centred on Walt and Hank and the increasingly different situation their families are facing. But while Anna Gunn, Betsy Brandt, and Dean Norris share some intense and well- acted scenes, there isn't anything to special about them in this episode and I wouldn't have minded if one or two minutes of their screen time were reduced. One really good part about "Buried" comes most unexpected, as Lydia, with a little help of Todd(ler, in comparison to his colleagues) and his evil-looking gang, employs her trademark mixture of unscrupulousness and sensitivity in an enthralling and entertaining scene.
Walt takes a slight step back in this episode and also has fewer lines than usual, but participates in a beautifully looking desert scene that has Breaking Bad proving yet for another time how creative one can be with cinematography. Those are the aspects of "Buried" I care to mention as the remainder doesn't serve much a greater purpose than establishing future story lines, which I'll discuss in future reviews.
