Nick Hanover got his degree from Disneyland, but he’s the last of the secret agents and he’s your man.

Great dramas often build-up to devastating scenes that are so inevitable the tension comes not from a place of will it happen? but rather when will it happen and how will it go down. Breaking Bad is...
