You didn't understand the subtext.

How the fuck did he notice a piece missing while the plate was lying in the trash? Like that shit was covered with some other garbage, there's no way anyone would even think that something is off. It was retarded and contrived, but that's basically the entirety of that piece of shit normalnigger slop show.

In the way you interpreted the scene, did Walt just absentmindedly look at the garbage thinking "I wonder what I should have for breakfast tomorrow, -oh what's this? a broken plate? oh shit, right there's a guy locked in my basement who wants to kill me, fuck"

Walt is doing mundane, everyday activities when he notices that a piece of a broken plate is gone.

Possible meanings and symbolism

Loss of control / disintegration of life

The missing piece represents a small imperfection in his otherwise ordered, controlled life.

Walt is obsessively meticulous about details; the missing shard reflects how his life is starting to break down as he descends into the criminal world.

Foreshadowing fragmentation

The plate is literally broken, but missing a piece makes it incomplete.

Symbolically, it mirrors Walt’s transformation: his identity and moral framework are fragmenting.

Obsession with perfection

Walt notices a tiny, almost insignificant detail — showing his fixation on control and precision.

This obsession parallels how he later approaches chemistry and his criminal enterprises.

Domestic vs. criminal life tension

The plate is a domestic object; its imperfection hints that the neat, safe world of home life is already compromised by the chaos of his hidden criminal life.

In short

The missing shard isn’t about the plate itself; it’s a visual metaphor. It signals Walt’s growing awareness that his life is imperfect, fragile, and beginning to fracture — a subtle hint at his transformation into Heisenberg.

damn....

You’d probably only be able to stab once with that before it breaks
>>
>>215038112
he literally accidentally glanced at it while throwing away a soda can he was drinking while making a sandwich.
>>
What would have happened if Walt just stopped giving him food and water? It would have saved him the trouble of killing a man with his bare hands and getting stabbed for his troubles.
Do you think krazy 8 would have started eating from his poop bucket after he's been starved enough? I bet it would have been a good strat, feed him and water him for a few days, stop emptying the bucket and let him decide for himself if he wants to scoop out the forbidden peanut butter.

One day it's "soap opera", other day it's "capeshit". Make up your mind already
>>
>>215038865
Yes, seeing the plate again inspired him to think about the sharp jagged plate shards again.

Dropped the whole series right here. Fucked this aged up bullshit.
>>
>>215037055
It was still a dark comedy by this point. Then they decided to keep the annoying kid alive and make him a main character yo
>>
>>215039801
He could’ve easily just poisoned him, he wanted him alive. You could argue some sort of moral thing where Walt hadn’t entirely given up his humanity and wasn’t willing to kill someone in cold blood, but really he just wanted to keep him on ice in case he might be useful
