[Walter is venting to Saul about his problems with the business]
What about my brother-in-law? He suspects Jesse—Hell, he knows Jesse is involved in the sale of blue meth. That was Hank's one and only lead.
Now what if he puts and he goes after Jesse for the murder? He goes after him how? On his Rascal Scooter? [pause; clears his throats] That, perhaps, sounded insensitive. But if he goes after him, I'll sue his ass for police brutality, harassment, assault, and sixteen other things. Now, the history that those two have together being what it is, you got to figure your brother-in-law's smart enough not to go down that particular road. Goose egg, bupkis. That's what the cops got. I wouldn't worry about it.
Then what else should I not worry about, Saul, hm? Should I not worry that Gus plans to murder me at the first chance he gets? Should I not worry that my drug-addicted partner doesn't seem to care whether he lives or dies? You should see his house. It's like Skid Row! He has actual hobos living there! Now how long before Gus decides that he's too big of a risk? That guy Mike, that grunting dead-eyed cretin, sucker punching me in the face! I've got Gus wielding a box cutter! I mean... Western Union! Message received! Let me ask you, when did this stop being a business, hm? Why am I the only person capable of behaving in a professional manner?
