@TK Wallace Yeah. I have no idea why he quoted that with the 'laughing so hard I'm crying' emoji. It wasn't a laugh line and I don't get what aspect of it would be hilarious.

I was surprised to disagree so strongly with your analysis but Todd absolutely wasn't the "evil for evil's sake" sadist for who committed violence for its sadistic pleasure, that was bizarelly off the mark. He's a genuine psychopath, which you did acknowledge, but he never appears to get any emotional kick out of violence or evil - the reason his character is a terrifying concept is because he's entirely indifferent. He'll do the most evil things imaginable because they make sense from a pragmatic perspective—a child witnessed your crime? Murder him without a moment's thought or regret. Want to maximise your drug production? Torture and enslave Jesse under the threat of murdering his girlfriend and her young child. Gus is driven, among other things, by revenge so even he is a man of emotion and human feeling. Todd is akin to the nightmarish threat of artificial intelligence concluding that it would be most beneficial to its overall objectives to eradicate the human race - it won't hesitate and it won't dwell on it, emotion is non existent and morality is irrelevant.

@TheGeorgeD13 Well seeing as I'm inclined towards Texas Red's suspicions on this, I thought I'd flat out ask to see if someone would provide an explanation that wasn't some sort of snide gender related satisfaction. It's been three weeks, the joke had a good run, won't you indulge me here?
