After his breakdown in the crawl space, however, it was only a matter of time before Walt committed an act of this magnitude. In the final episode of season four Walt brings Jesse back onto his side after convincing him that it was Gus who poisoned the child. Walt and Jesse then manage to finally kill Gus leaving Walt free to become the new king of the drug underworld in the south and to become more like Scarface as Vince Gilligan promised at the very beginning. So, by this stage Walt has damaged his soul beyond repair, he has a massive ego, hes committed great acts of evil and is now free from Guss influence. Needless to say Im sure Vince Gilligan will drag Walt even lower in the final season and I for one cant wait to see how it plays out.
