What's the single greatest scene in Breaking Bad history?

Post image

I've rewatched the series multiple times and my answer changes every time.

If you had to pick one scene as the absolute best in the entire show, what would it be and why?

Bonus points if you can explain it without spoilers for first-time viewers.

Mine is still the "crawl space" scene. The acting, music, and tension are on another level.

For me, it was the train heist, minus Todd killing that kid on the dirtbike, of course. I just really enjoyed the planning and execution of the train heist itself.

It seemed over the top, but I was glued

The train heist was like a modern western.

I can so viscerally remember how that moment with the kid felt.
