Not sure. Talkin with folks about that tonight, actually. Dudeman said that it was the money, ladychick said it was the family - reason given being that those were the only two things Walt has really ever consistently cared about.
I can't see Jesse going after the family, really - after the botched house-torching, it seems like it'd just be returning to a place that they have just recently exited...?
I have no idea how Jesse would know where Walt's money is, either.

I think MMD's right. He may be thinking about directing Hank towards the new meth partnership, somehow forcing Walt to entangle himself further and exposing him so he incriminates himself. Though I'm sure Jesse would use that as an excuse to position himself to hurt walt in a more personal way.
Where Walt really lives is in his inflated ego. Heisenberg. Having created a meth empire, toppled large enemies and survived insurmountable odds. Jesse is tired of being manipulated. He's going to try to pop that ballooon.

Holy fucking shit. Hank and Jesse outsmarted Walt, only for THAT to happen? Amazing. That looks on Walt's face when he saw Jesse get out of Hank's car... all the awards!
I don't get why Walt flipped out on the phone. It doesn't seem in his character to me. He's always tried and talked Jesse down. If his money was so important why would he go nuts at that point when it's most in jeopardy instead of waiting to get the the location?
That whole scene where Walt was driving and Jesse was on the phone sucked. It looked weird, Jesse sounded weird. IDK, that part felt really off to me.

The only thing that looked weird to me were the backgrounds when you saw the interior of the car with Walt (the scenery looked almost Seinfeld fake). As far as Jesse sounding weird, it was the first time in the history of the show that he called him "Walt" and not "Mr. White," so that was weird, but I think he was just being a smug, arrogant Jesse that we've never seen before. My buddy had a problem with Walt flipping out too, but I thought it was perfectly in-character. The only thing he really cared about was his money, and Jesse made it look like he found it and was about to destroy it, and Walt completely lost his cool. He didn't want to lose any of his money from Jesse lighting it all up before he got there.
Walt's flipped out before, and it's not like it was out of the blue this time. His stress level's gone up more and more this season.
What didn't make sense was why did the uncles send 8 aryan brotherhood loaded up with weapons to Walt's location? If it was only for one guy, Jesse? Seemed like overkill.
And yeah, they all sucked as shots, even with automatic shotguns??? And they were standing right in the open?

You know I've noticed that there's actually a couple of movies and television shows where volleys of bullets, laser beams or arrows will fail to make lethal contact with characters important to the progression of the ongoing story. I can't think of any off the top of my head, but there's definitely some other instance of that trope floating around out there somewhere.

It just really bugged me that everyone suddenly went cross-eyed just so the episode could have a cliffhanger. The way the shootout was built up to, it very clearly looked like Hank was dead as soon as anyone pulled the trigger, and then shit got all retarded. Bleh.

Yeah, I mean exchanging rounds is not a big deal but if they had cut it a few seconds earlier... that's an eternity in a gunfight. I at least know that's nitpicking, though. The show holds itself to a pretty high standard otherwise.
