[Oh, Christ. Saul runs a hand through his hair and sighs. He looks exhausted, feels exhausted, and is so sick of apologizing and making excuses for Jesse — but what else can he do? What else is there?]

He didn't mean it. And I'm not telling you that you need to forget what happened and forgive him, or that you shouldn't kick the shit out of him, but the thing you need to know about Jesse is that's what he wants. Especially when he's strung out like that. So you hate him now, right? Mission accomplished. He got me, too. I tried to choke him.
