Plot Summary: Walter is preparing to dispose of the drug dealer and Emilio when suddenly the dealer wakes up from unconsciousness, startling both men. For safety, Walter locks the dealer in Jesse's basement. They divide tasks—Jesse cares for Emilio while Walter guards the dealer. Neither dares to kill the dealer, yet they fear he might expose their plan if he escapes. After much hesitation, they decide to keep him confined in Jesse's basement. Walter's wife goes to the hospital for a check-up and discovers she's pregnant with a girl—she's overjoyed. Curious about Walter’s whereabouts, Skyler calls back the most recent number on Walter’s phone and accidentally overhears Jesse’s voicemail mentioning drugs. Concerned for Walter, she immediately confronts him. Walter lies, claiming Jesse was offering him marijuana, and asks Skyler not to interfere. Skeptical but worried, Skyler lets it go. To dispose of Emilio’s body, Walter instructs Jesse to dissolve him using strong acid in a plastic container. But Jesse, seeking convenience, uses the bathtub on the second floor instead. The acid melts the tub and the floor, leaving the undissolved remains of Emilio falling into the first floor. Walter becomes furious upon discovering Jesse’s shortcut, scolding him for ignoring good advice—strong acid dissolves anything not made of plastic. Both are now stressed about cleaning up the mess. Yet to avoid suspicion, Walter and Jesse thoroughly clean the area.
