You are correct. The Fly represents his guilt over Jane's death. All the other horrible things he did he was able to control emotionally but guilt over letting Jane die is a contamination to his secret life that can destroy everything

2019-12-24 22:46:27 +0000 UTCThis is the single most divisive episode of Breaking Bad. People really do either love it or hate it. I personally love it, for too many reasons to type on an iPhone. But I think it’s brilliant.

2019-12-11 18:49:21 +0000 UTCI forgot to mention the other reason why I assumed it to be a Methamorphosis referense There’s a movie that arguably has some parallells to Methamorphosis The Fly, 1986, by David Cronenberg. staring Jeff Goldblum, which is of course the title of this episode.

2019-12-11 18:18:13 +0000 UTCBecause last episode was called Kafkaesque I always interpreted this episode as a referense to this: The Metamorphosis (German: Die Verwandlung) is a novella written by Franz Kafka which was first published in 1915. One of Kafka's best-known works, The Metamorphosis tells the story of salesman Gregor Samsa who wakes one morning to find himself inexplicably transformed into a huge insect (German ungeheures Ungeziefer, literally "monstrous vermin"), subsequently struggling to adjust to this new condition I saw this episode as Walt dealing with how he has transformed into Heisenberg Previously he has been in the mind set that he was in control of that transformation, that this was his choice and doing. But sitting in that lab, that’s being controlled by someone else, being tormented by this fly (himself, the monsterous vermin) that he can’t control, he starts trying to pinpoint at what time the transformation was completed. He realize it’s at the time he let Jane die, and also realized that his transformation is not as much under his control as he thought but are influenced by things he has no control over. In metamorphosis the guys family first symphatize and like pity him, then the’re disgusted by him, then hate him and wishes him dead. This kind of goes with Skylar (and probably in Walts head the whole family + Jesse should they ever find out the whole thruth) (Can’t be bothered about grammar and spelling, I trust that you get what I’m trying to say 😊)
