Continuity mistake: In her office, Skyler brings up to her boss, Ted, an issue with a "Keller Account" and puts one hand up to her mouth. In this shot her other arm is crossed over with her other hand resting on the one arm held up. When the angle changes suddenly her arm is outstretched more in front of her with her hand on her papers.

Mandala - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: After Combo is killed and Skinny leaves the operation, Jesse and Walt are in Saul's office, explain what happened, and they start bickering. From a side angle you see Saul lean forward in his chair as he yells "Guys guys!" to try and stop them. It then cuts to an angle showing Saul from the front and he's suddenly leaning back in his chair, not forward.

Continuity mistake: When Hank arrives with takeout food from Los Pollos Hermanos, Walt picks up a container, but in the next shot he isn't holding it. Also when Walt places a chicken breast on Skyler's plate, it disappears in the next shot, but re-appears in the shot after that. There is a lot of back and forth with the food in this scene. (00:11:45)

Cornered - S4-E6

Walter White: Who are you talking to right now? Who is it you think you see? Do you know how much I make a year? I mean, even if I told you, you wouldn't believe it. Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work? A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly up. Disappears. It ceases to exist, without me. No, you don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Skyler. I AM the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No! I am the one who knocks!

Trivia: The website Walter Jr. creates to raise money for Walter Sr. can be found at http://www.savewalterwhite.com/. The donation link used to send the viewer to a legitimate cancer charity's website, but now just goes to AMC's home page. (00:20:00)

More trivia for Breaking Bad

Show generally

Question: Just how does Walt intend to explain the presence of all that meth money, even posthumously? Just how does he think his heirs will react to that, how is he going to launder it? How does he think his wife and kids will explain it? If they knowingly inherit and use such money, they could face charges of accessory after the fact. Is this ever addressed in the show?

dizzyd

Chosen answer: I'm not sure how far you are into the show but he does eventually come up with a way to launder it (wont spoil it for you but rest assured, when he gets a lawyer the show gets much better!) and in the final season he also comes up with a way to give his children his money without the cops or the DA knowing it came from him.

The_Iceman

Answer: Walt decided to buy a car wash to launder his money, which makes a profit without the dirty money. At the end he blackmailed Elliot and Gretchen in to giving his money to junior and Holly. However 90% of his $80m is stolen.
