Walter and Jesse in “Crazy Handful of Nothin”

Walter

How much meth did you sell?

Jesse

Nearly an ounce.

Walter

Last I checked, there were sixteen ounces to a pound. What did you do with the rest, smoke it?

Jesse

Yo, I've been out there all night slinging crystal! You think it's cake, moving a pound of meth one 'teenth at a time?

Walter

So why are you selling it in such small quantities? Why don't you just sell the whole pound at once?

Jesse

To who? What do I look like, Scarface?

Walter

This... [holds up his small share] is unacceptable. I am breaking the law, here! This return is too little for the risk! I thought you'd be ready for another pound today!

Jesse

You may know a lot about chemistry, man, but you don't know jack about slinging dope.

Walter

Well, I'll tell ya–I know a lack of motivation when I see it. [Jesse scoffs] Come on, you–you've gotta be more imaginative, you know, just–just think outside the box here! We have to move our product in bulk. Wholesale! Now, how do we do that?

Jesse

What do you mean? To, like, a distributor?

Walter

Yes. Yes, that's what we need. We need a distributor! Now, do you know anyone like that?

Jesse

Yeah. I mean, I used to, until you killed him.

Walter

So... who took Krazy-8's place?

Jesse

Some guy named Tuco. Badass, from what I hear.

Walter

Tuco. Okay, so then, just go talk to Tuco.

Jesse

[scoffs] Right. Like, "Hello, sir. Hey, I know you don't know me, but would you be interested in a felony quantity of methamphetamine?"

Walter

Well, yes, but maybe with a little more salesmanship, perhaps?

Jesse

You just don't get it, man! Okay, this guy's OG!

Walter

What–What does that mean?

Jesse

Agh, Jesus. Look, he's off our level, man! He's not gonna do business with some dude he doesn't know! You just don't understand the way it works; you can't just bum-rush some high-level iceman and start cutting deals, okay? It's risky. You need an intro, you need someone to vouch.

Walter

Well, who introduced you to Krazy-8?

Jesse

Emilio, and that's only because I knew him from, like, third grade, and we can't talk to Emilio either, because—

Walter

Alright, alright, alright...

Jesse

Look, I'm telling you, Mr. White... it's too risky. 'Kay? I mean, we're making money, why can't you just be satisfied with the way it is?

Walter

Oh, come on! Jesus! JUST GROW SOME FUCKIN' BALLS!!
