Glock 22. That’s my daily carry, OK. I mean unless you’re talking, what, +P+ slugs, you forget the 9-mil, alright. Shit, I’ve seen one of those bounce off of a windshield one time … If you’re gonna bring a gun, baby, you gotta bring enough gun.
– “Hank” Schrader in Breaking Bad #1.1 (2008)
Breaking Bad (2008-2013) is another one of those recent series that redefined modern television. It centres on Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a chemistry teacher who becomes a meth cook and, eventually, crime lord. The viewer watches with morbid fascination as White gets deeper and deeper into trouble and has to come up with increasingly outlandish ways to extricate himself from problems he created himself, losing his morals, family, and even humanity in the process.
There are a number of well-done altercations throughout the five seasons. The one I want to examine here in GURPS terms is the shootout between DEA Special Agent Henry “Hank” Schrader, White’s brother-in-law, and Juárez Cartel distributor Tuco Salamanca in Breaking Bad #2.2 “Grilled” (2010).
