I mean, I know it was a theme throughout the show and I'm not the first one to notice, but my God how relentlessly MEAN Walt is to Jesse the entire time is hard to watch!
Literally nothing he does is right, and he tries SO HARD. And the worst part is, I never caught originally how a lot of the fuck ups can actually be blamed on Walt himself; for example, he just HAD to reprimand Jesse about putting the keys on the "workspace" during the marathon cook in S02E09. That's the only reason they ended up in the ignition to begin with which ended up killing the battery.
A lot of the mistakes can be traced back in this way to Walt being a condescending asshole and Jesse trying to appease him.
I originally thought, as I recalled, that the show was about watching Walt slowly change from good guy to bad guy... Turns out he was already firmly on one end of the bell curve when the show started.
