Vince Gilligan admitted in an interview that Luis and Daniel Moncada went totally above and beyond anything he could imagine about what the characters of "The Cousins" would be. This is why they remained so far into the season. In fact, after this episode when the two characters were finished, Vince said every cast and crew member wanted their photo taken with the actors and spent hours doing so before they left.
Although the twin that appears has his legs amputated, in the previous episode where Hank pins him against two cars hard, there is no visible blood or indication of severe injury. Also this twin was pinned at just below the waist, not at knee level.
Episode Title: At the end of the episode, Hank is placed in the I.C.U. (Intensive Care Unit). The episode's title is a nice play on words.
Jesse: Hey, tell your douchebag brother-in-law to head towards the light.
(Walt and Walt Jr. talk about a book)
Walt Jr.: Uncle Hank gave it to me.
Walt: Well, what's it about?
Walt Jr.: Pablo Escobar, this big drug guy in the 80s.
Walt: Yeah. Yeah, I remember seeing him on the news.
Walt Jr.: Well, it's more about the guys who investigated him and tried to bring him down. Some of them were DEA, you know? Uncle Hank said that they were worth learning about, that everybody knows who Pablo Escobar is but nobody knows about the guys that brought him down.
Walt: I guess I never thought about it.
Walt Jr.: He said that good guys never get ink the bad guys do. So he gave it to me. Figured I'd read it.
Walt: Being here [in the hospital], is this some sort of message? Gus: I'm supporting my community. I hide in plain sight, same as you.
Gomez: I'd love to walk in there and shoot that bastard [surviving cousin] right in the head. Walt: Me too.
Male orderly: (Wheeling Jesse out the door to get picked up) Sir, if you are going to smoke then you need to be another 20 feet from the door. Jesse: So roll me further, bitch.
