You could almost call the rest of the episode scene-for-scene in the minutes preceding the title sequence, Walt's failed request for gratitude from Mike foreshadowing the final moments. This is the first of three bruises to Walt's ego, the final of which would be the straw that broke the camel's back, sending Walt into an ego trip from which he doesn't recover. (Breaking Bad, TV) 9.7/10
