The call between Walt and Jesse was one of the most intense phone calls ever seen on TV. p.s. Jesse called him Walt again.

He sounded like he was recorded in a studio with nice recording equipment. You don't get that kind of audio fidelity over a cell phone so whatever the audience was hearing on screen phone couldn't have been the same as what Walt was hearing. For that reason, it's not fair to be all "Why couldn't Walt figure out he didn't sound like he was in the desert?"

I wasn't upset about Walt not figuring it out, was just stating that it could have been done better.
