Possible mega spoiler below
A friend of mine showed me this site, http://madrigalelectromotive.com . He is saying that Elliot and Gretchen Schwarz are Lydia's bosses. He is basing this assumption on this find
"We've depended on Madrigal Electromotive for years. I can honestly say that without their expert advise, timely delivery, and superb support our company could never have achieved it's premier position in the industry."

What do you guys think about it ?
EDIT: I looked at this site a bit more and i think that it must be a ruse made from a fan.

Gobolatula said:If Gretchen and Elliott were the final villains of Breaking Bad I would literally laugh my ass off. I mean literally, I would chuckle so hard that my ass cheeks would rocket off my hips and make two holes in the wall that I would keep there to remind me of the most hilarious series in TV history.
NightCrawler said:Why would he use it on himself, he's already slowly dying (which is what ricin does, it wouldn't pleasant to die that way). My bet goes to Lydia, with it being used on one of her tea orders. But still, it wouldn't be a significant kill, considering the whole implied importance of the flashforward.
NightCrawler said:In retrospect, the pink teddy bear flashforward scenes were pretty much pointless teasing for nothing, so who knows? The ricin might end up being for a minor character.

But you all were crafting his ultimate punishment. Did you ever consider ending the show like this, with Walt alone in his personal hell?
We did. And part of the flirtation for the episode, if you didn’t know there was another episode left to come, I was really hoping that you would watch the episode and say, “This is the end? It’s going to end not with a bang but a whimper? Where’s Heisenberg?” The man has lost his mojo, he’s lost his energy, which I think ultimately is the thing that we love about him is his energy, his springing back, and that’s gone. He just becomes this drained little man, and I think it creates, for me anyway, it creates this frustrating suspense because you want him to act, but the truth is, everything he’s done, every action he’s taken has just made things worse. It’s all turned to ashes in his hands. So in a weird way, he’s lost his confidence. And then also he has this impossible problem, which is to make any meaning out of this, he needs to get that money to his family, and that’s absolutely impossible, isn’t it?
Right. Which brings us to the bar. So I have to ask: Was bringing Gretchen and Elliott back always part of the plan?
It’s tricky. I can’t say too much because … the story’s not over yet. And there’s a lot of story yet to come in the next episode...
Also, talking about the phone call, I feel like ever since last week’s phone call with Skyler, Walt has been almost trying to conjure up Heisenberg. And then in this episode, he starts to put on the hat and he can’t do it, and by the end you feel like he flips that switch, and you have Gretchen saying, “The Walt I knew is gone,” and having that parallel. What was it about Gretchen and Elliott’s interview that really set him off? She talked about the brilliant man being gone, but they also claimed he had nothing to do with their success.
There’s so much that goes on in that moment. There’s a lot of switches being closed, I think, in Walt. There’s emotions about the past, but then there’s also something else that we’re going to follow up on. A lot of that moment is going to be explored, what went on there. I’m trying to say enough without saying too much.

Griffith said:
In Breaking Bad, Walter White becomes a criminal kingpin by cooking meth that is 99 percent pure. Now the AMC hit is entering the Guinness World Records 2014 for achieving a much more admirable 99 percent rating.
Breaking Bad will enter the record books as the “Highest-Rated TV Series,”after receiving a metascore of 99 out of 100 on MetaCritic.com.

hahaha I swear I never saw this. Though their "laugh your ass off" joke is superior to mine.Griffith said:Even if there were a connection, I think it would be more to unfairly bring them down than to reveal them as bad. Also, laugh your ass off? [they're clearly real fans of the show, too bad most of the joking truly is bad]
Yep, some neat stuff, but quite a bit of obtuse wording in there in order to circumvent spoiling the next episode. Will probably make more sense after next week.Griffith said:Speaking of Walt's intentions, if you're so inclined check out this interview with Peter Gould, the writer of last night's episode:

Watch the M60 be for Gretchen and Eliot's houseThe way I see it is that Heisenberg is gone. He keeps trying to kind of evoke the ghost of Heisenberg, the thrill of feeling powerful, and it’s not there. It’s gone. It died when Hank died. It’s just not there. It died when he saw baby Holly. And then in the end, what is happening in my mind, and obviously we’re leaving it up to the audience to some extent, in my mind, what’s happening is he’s becoming something new. And it’s not Walter White; It’s not Heisenberg; it’s something new.

Still, this is what I was thinking about that last scene:
Full interview: http://www.vulture.com/m/2013/09/breaking-bad-peter-gould-granite-state-interview.html?mid=twitter_vultureEspecially when a father writes a scene like the one where Walt is begging his son to take the money, really tearing himself open. Interesting sideline: Bryan did that scene, knocked it out of the park, and then the film was run over by an airplane. I kid you not. Our postproduction producer Diane Mercer still has the crushed film cans. We had pictures of film being brought into our labs in garbage bags. We had to go back and reshoot a portion of that scene. Bryan had to go through all that twice.
Johnstantine said:Wow, good job on Entertainment ripping off some dude's theory on Reddit.
This is a time lapse video of the Breaking Bad writers writing episode 4 of season 5 called 'Fifty-One'.
The series centers on two detectives with thoroughly different world views, one cynical and one naive, who team up to "clean up the semi-mean streets" of Battle Creek, Michigan. The project is not exactly new: Gilligan originally penned a script for "Battle Creek" in 2002 for CBS, but the network never greenlighted it.
He will join forces with "House" creator David Shore on the police drama "Battle Creek," which will debut during the 2014-2015 season on CBS.
