10 Greatest Jesse Moments In Breaking Bad

10. Alone in the Lab - Fly

For all of the lip service that has been paid to every single episode of Breaking Bad, Fly is definitely one of the more contentious ones.

Since this show has been known for its graphic depictions of violence and escalating tension, the idea of an entire episode dealing with a fly in the lab screams 'filler' before it even gets started. It's not however, especially when you have the type of actors on hand to bring it to life like this.

While Aaron Paul doesn't have much to work with outside of chasing a fly, there's an added sense of realism to the way he portrays Jesse, almost like you're catching him on a day off as he looks back on what led him to this spot.

Aside from the typical stoner humor that comes from his small talk, the moment where everything heightens comes when discussing Jane's death, as he starts to tear himself apart again for something he had absolute no part in causing.

In fact, this is probably the biggest amount of tension in the entire show period, as Walt seems to be on the verge of fessing up about his involvement in Jane's death before reverting back to his passive ways by saying 'it's all contaminated.'

Given the amount of bad decisions that led them here, contamination doesn't even begin to describe what's going to be on horizon.
