Complete story — includes the ending

Following Walt's behavior at dinner the night before, Skyler grows worried that he is in danger and again pushes Walt to turn himself in. When Walt angrily lashes out and tells her that he is the one who is a danger to others, Skyler leaves with Holly. Walt tells Jesse that Gus is attempting to drive a wedge between him and Jesse, correctly suspecting that the robbery that Jesse thwarted was a set-up. That afternoon, Jesse is again taken from the lab to run a job with Mike; Walt pays three workers at the laundry facility to clean the lab, but when Gus finds out, he has them deported. Meanwhile, Gus compliments Jesse's work in his errands with Mike and proclaims that he "sees something" in him, further boosting Jesse's self-esteem and loyalty. Walt gives into Walt Jr.'s pleas for a new car and buys him a Dodge Challenger. When Skyler returns home, she demands Walt return the car as it contradicts their cover story, further stating that "someone has to protect this family from the man who protects this family".
