The comparisons to this episode and AMC's recently completed series Breaking Bad are inevitable, especially since both drug cooks try sporting ridiculous hats. Rudy proves himself worthy in a drug lab by producing product that's 95% pure, though his methods did require a bit of practice. Before going into the field Rudy attempts cooking up a batch of The Bends in front of Detectives Paul and Stahl, with explosive results. He forgets a key ingredient, iodine, which causes an unexpected chemical reaction and turns one poor android into a cyclops.
