No, that’s the point. Walter is wrong most of the time, but willing to commit violence to protect himself. He’s a victim of PTSD from the war in SE Asia while ideologically rejecting its impact on his life. That’s why he’s friends with The Dude, because subconsciously he knows he’d be better off in a bathrobe smoking a joint, and The Dude is friends with Walter, because he knows Walter needs him.
This was definitely a direct emotional response to being questioned about Cynthia. He brought the dog bowling. He didn’t buy it a beer or rent it shoes, but that dog pushed Walter “over the line.” It’s all a part of his sick Cynthia thing lol.
Think he crossed not a literal line but a figurative line in Walters mind... Being a pacifist, not cool man, I didn't watch my buddies die flat in the mud so this hippie, this whore could jerk around all over town utilising the basic freedoms he provided against the Manning the black pyjamas, worthy fucking adversary
I didn’t notice the cops running into bowling alley to look for Walter in the background of the parking lot scene (calmer than you are) until like my 20th year watching the film. 😆
It doesn’t matter where his foot is after he rolls. We need to know where his toe was when he released the ball. We don’t see that, thus no proof. This comes up every few weeks on this sub and it’s still not how anything works.
I just thought it was fair to tell you that Gene and I will be submitting this to the League and asking them to set aside the round. Or maybe
forfeit it to us.
