“Open House” · Season 4, Episode 3

In this episode: Walter White (3), Skyler White (2), Saul Goodman (2), Jesse Pinkman (1), Hank Schrader (1), Marie Schrader (1)

[Marie has gone on a shopping run for Hank]

I had to go to three different places to get the moisturizer that you liked, but I got that and I got your Shiner Bock and your chips and–I couldn't resist–the complete encyclopedia to fantasy football. Look, it has all the latest rankings.

[looking at the chips] Marie, I said Cheetos, not Fritos.

Wait, I—

I must've said Cheetos like ten times. You need me to write it down for you?

No, and I don't need you to be mean about it either, Mr. Grumpy.

Well, I'm just saying, y'know, I said Cheetos. Ch-ch-ch-sound. Virtually impossible to confuse Cheetos with Fritos it seems to me. Where are you going?

Back to the store, I guess. [throws Hank the fantasy football magazine] Here.

And the draft is not for two months so this is useless!

For what it's worth, getting the shit kicked out of you? Not to say you get used to it, but you do kinda get used to it.

[Walter and Skyler want to buy the car wash, but Bogdan refuses to sell for a lower price because of Walt's prior behavior]

So where were we?

Professionalism.

Yeah, um, so the guy won't sell, he won't sell.

I don't accept that. I don't accept that he won't sell. I think he just lacks the proper... motivation.

Motivation? Uh, as in motivation motivation? Just so we're on the same page here, you're saying we'll make him an offer he can't refuse?

Nothing so dramatic as that, no. Motivation. Attitude adjustment.

[laughs; to Walter] This one, she's a keeper. [to Skyler] Well, I know an audit can be highly motivating. I know a gal over at Tax & Revenue, you give her ten minutes in this Bogdan fella's books, she'll have his sky raining frogs.

No, we don't want to draw any unwanted tax attention. We don't want them looking at us after Bogdan sells.

Alright, how about an ICE raid? You know he's got illegals working over there. I mean, he just has to.

We're not getting a bunch of poor innocent people in trouble, no.

Yeah, and also you're gonna need them after you take over. Hey, how about terrorism? "Oh, Agent Hoover I gotta tell ya, I've seen some real Islamic comings and going over there at the car wash. Yeah, I mean, guys in turbans pulling up in vans and stuff like that." Heh-heh.

Saul, Bogdan is Romanian.

Okay, well, we're just spitballin' here, so...

Look, there's always, "You gotta real nice place here. It'd be a shame if something happened to it." That angle.

What are you talking about? Violence?

Attitude adjustment.

Oh, no–That, no. That is not at all what I meant. We do not do that. [to Walter] That is not who we are, right?

[brief pause] Yeah, no, no, no. She's right. Look, do I need to state the obvious? I mean, there's got to be dozens of car washes in this area. Who says it has to be this one?

I do. I say it has to.

Why?

I just do.

God...

Well, that clears things up.

I don't like him. Bogdan. He was condescending to me, he was rude about you, and I do not like him. Simple as that.

Hey, nobody appreciates a passionate woman more than I do, but in this business–and Walt can back me up on this–the number one rule is, "Don't take things personal."

What do you mean rude about me?

Something along the lines of you weren't man enough to face him yourself.

What?

That you had to send your woman to do your business for you.

[to Walter] Okay, uh, speaking as your lawyer, I'm gonna go on record and say this is a bad idea. Now I advise against—

It's this one.

[toasting to the new car wash where he will launder his drug money] To clean cars... and clean money.
