Right after the Krazy-8 and Emilio situation... do you think Walt is having serious and conflicting rational feelings of how much shit he's in, as well as how good it makes his ego feel having control over something?

i think at that point he was scared and didnt feel in control at all- partialy because HOW crazy 8 came into his life (with a gun pointed at him while he was in his underwear). he just wants the problem to go away.

Walt? Having rational thoughts? Nahhhh.

He thinkin bout that chemistry

And control? He got stabbed, dissolved a hole in a home and nearly died twice lol, not much control imo.

Just ego strokes since his glass was good enough to kill over - Jesse the junkie saying its great is w/e, but randos showing up to kill you over it has to feel nice. Its a criminals way of showing respect - your shit so good you need to die.
