Breaking Bad fans have taken to Twitter to express shock, dismay and sadness after an epicly grim episode that saw two characters killed and a third tortured.
The episode, titled Ozymandias, showed the aftermath of a desert shootout that left last week's episode on a cliffhanger. DEA agents Hank and Gomez were killed in the gunfight, Todd's Nazi criminals stole six of Walt's seven barrels of cash, and also kidnapped Walt's former sidekick Jesse Pinkman.
But it was Walter White's final descent into the deranged, psychotic, nihilistic criminal mastermind he always threatened to be that really shook fans of the show up.
Among the many bad things he did in this week's episode were: Telling Jesse that he watched his girlfriend Jane overdose and didn't save her; Letting Todd's Nazi uncle take Jesse to torture him; Engaging in a knife fight with wife Skylar while son Walt Jr watched on; and stealing baby Holly and taking her on the run.
