"Crawl Space" contains my favorite moment of television ever.

I think we all know which part I am talking about. I just finished Crawl space on my 3rd watch of the series and I get chills every time. The last 4 minutes, it seems as though Walt's whole world completely collapses. It honest to God seems like there is no hope whatsoever.

When he screams "where is the money" it just grabs me by the balls every time. Every time I watch it I just have to sit in pure silence. To capture this level of drama, intensity and suspense is nothing short of the work of a master.

And then my goodness, when the camera zooms out and you see Walt laying in a symbolic grave, with that shrill, unrelenting screech. I think this might just be the best moment of the series; certainly my favorite. It marks a new chapter in Walt's arc. There is no more playing around at this point, there is no more wiggle room. All of his wreckless joyrides and splurges are done.

If you haven't watched this scene in a long time, I highly recommend it. Also for some reason when I watch videos of the top moments in BB, I often see this moment left out. Anyone know why that might be?
