My prediction for the finale: Jesse's going to have a freak lab accident that'll turn him into Rewindo, and he'll use his superpower of walking backwards to save everyone.
I think he took Holly in the heart of the moment to salvage whatever part of his family that he could. When he heard her crying for mama then he realized he couldn't do that, and tried to save his family the best he could. This meant trying to make sure Skyler wouldnt go to jail by sounding like a monster and taking all of the blame before disappearing.
It just kind of hit me, and this was prolly obvious to everyone else, but Walt took Holly because he knew Skylar would get the cops involved, thus giving him a chance to clear Skylar's name.

That was my impression as well. I don't think he had time to come up with any grand plan until later. Skyler also seemed to realize what he was doing during the phone call and in a way forgave him.

I do think that the phone conversation was sprinkled with a good dose of truth though. Like him being upset that she told Walt Jr. And how exasperated he sounded that she didn't follow him.
This is definitely a scene i'm going to have to watch 5 more times.
I didn't get the phone call as helping Skylar at the time, but reading it from Secret Weapon and others, it makes perfect sense. Good catch........Unless it's an extension of "I am the one who knocks," which after that phone call, jeez, seems pretty tame. The whole "toe the line" thing was chilling. I thought I was watching Hank's death scene at the beginning, then I thought twice that I was watching Jessie's death scene, and that rug got pulled out from under me both times. Then the phone call. Just a really gut-wrenching, nauseating episode all around.
I just freaking love that they'll spend TWENTY MINUTES of air time just on the desert set piece to open the show. This is a show with like 140 minutes left entering last night (unless the last ep is a double) and they use 1/7 of it to kill Hank, have Walt tell Jessie that he watched Jane die, and see Walt lose his money. The patience they exhibit with this show is staggering. A far worse and far more common show would have cut that 20 minutes into 6.

Damnit. I hate working Sundays.
Get a DVR. Watch the show on Amazon.
If you used Amazon you wouldn't even have to have your own computer--go to a library or an Internet cafe, bring your headphones.
