Even for show about a guy dying (well, not anymore...) of cancer, the first episode of Breaking Bad's highly-anticipated third season struck a decidedly somber chord. The action picks up a month or two after the conclusion of second season. Walt has been kicked out of his house by his suspicious wife Skylar, Jesse is in rehab recovering from the heroine and meth addiction that his girlfriend left him with after her overdose and Albuquerque as a whole is still reeling from the tragic plane crash that rained carnage down on the city (Hank puts the accident on par with 9/11 in terms of level of tragedy). Meanwhile, two sinister Mexican guys (cartel hit-men?) are making there way north towards the border with their sights set on Walt, who reluctantly turned down an offer of 3 million dollars for three months of his meth-cooking expertise.
More to come next week when there is a little less "set-up" and a little more to sink teeth into.
