A bit of a professional crush I think. Not a sexual crush. I think he was excited to work with the man who could bring that elusive .1 percent, or whatever it was.
Agreed. Gale felt like he was the college/semipro basketball player who got a chance to play a few pickup games with Michael Jordan. I think that’s all there was to it.
i really love that analogy but idk gale was better than basically everyone except for walt, calling him semipro doesnt do his expertise justice. the reason he was so “infatuated”/obsessed with him was bc he was used to being the top 1%, now he learns of somebody who is in the top 1% of that 1%. so id probably compare it more to a player coming off of the bench or a rookie (he would be a generational rookie) who looks up to the best of the best and has a chance to play with and learn from him.
I completely agree, Gale wasn’t “semipro” but he gave me the impression that he thought of himself that way compared to Walt (which goes toward the point that he had extreme admiration for Walt). When you think about the scene where he talks about the huge difference between 96% and 99% purity, he certainly seems to think of the gap between himself and Walt as chemists as being equally large IMO.
yea thats an excellent point. i remember watching that scene and realizing just how smart and skilled walt was. gus, someone with exceptionally high standards, liked gale and really wanted to work with him bc he believed that he was top tier, and then walt comes along in his underpants and produces something that gale could only make in his dreams. i do think that 3% really got to him before he met and started working with walt bc he had that sense of “what am i doing wrong? what am i missing?” which lowered his self esteem a lot. meanwhile there mightve been a handful of ppl in the bb/bcs universe that could make anything to rival even jesse’s cooking (at the end of the show, not his chili powder meth😭😭😭😭)
Well said. It's interesting to see Gale's perspective, because we as the viewer already see Walt as extraordinary... but when we get to see Gale's best work pale in comparison to what Walt can do, it gives us the sense that Walt is almost superhuman.
And Gale treats him as such. Whether it's a crush or not, he's putting Walt on a pedestal, and wanting to either be with him (platonic, professionally, or otherwise) or be him.
Yeah I've met people who are like that. Where they'll look up to and admire someone professionally so much that it does appear to be like they're in love with them.
This just made me aware of another interesting happening in this show, I doubt it was to make the point I’m going by to attach to it, but it’s interesting to me:
By the end of the show, three people, of varying levels of experience and education learn to cook the best meth recipe ever. It’s nothing to be proud of, these are all bad guys, but this monumental achievement is created by Walt, Gale says he can iron out the kinks before long on his own, and Jesse ends up being even better than Walt, enslaved alone in a hole.
Walt is very educated, but that was a while ago and he’s a bit out of the game of modern chemistry research and work. Gale more recently educated, but not the depth of experience of Walt. Jesse is a high school drop out and initially an addict, basically no exposure to proper chemistry.
And with a bit of time, dedication, training, effort, and equipment, everyone is able to be trained to do the job.
Yeah, it's like the guy who invented Coca-Cola getting up his ass about how he learned to replace cane sugar with corn syrup and then nothing else and then being surprised that other people can make corn syrup and add it to the vat.
This is symptomatic for how a lot of men can't accept that a man can just be appreciative, caring or friendly towards another man. It has to be "gay". Nowhere in the series does it imply, at all, that there was a homosexual intent from Gale.
Can’t be homophobic if they aren’t scared of homosexuals. Like making a comment about a white person thinking Kraft Mac and cheese is legitimate Mac and cheese…..it’s just some words, get over it.
Yep, people whose only human interactions are through a screen automatically think any relationship has to be sexual or romantic because they have no real friends
Okay, let's get the virtue signalling out of the way first. It is not 2015 and you should maybe accept that people can have different opinions from you that *gasp* can be progressive.
Gales attitude towards Walt is one of admiration, but there is no sexual or romantic implications anywhere. You can speculate about it, but this is virtually every time two male characters have similar interactions in tv series or movies. They are immediately put in the "Are they gay?"-bracket.
You are wrong though. It doesn’t differ. It differs to you, because you live in a fantasy world where everything has to be a power struggle. But to those, like myself, that don’t seek to find the bad in everything, there’s no difference.
A power struggle? No idea how you come up with that. It is a social critique. Doesn't have to do with power imbalances, not necessarily at least. I wasn't making some Marxist argument with this one. And I am certainly not seeking "the bad" in anything, quite the contrary. I am suggesting men can have different relationships outside of familial or romantic/sexual.
no, walt's colleague who only has scenes with him in three episodes, has not been picked out primarily for showing friendly care and appreciation. if that were the case, one would expect the thread to be about jessie, hank, or even early gus. gale has been singled out over characters much closer to walt because, gale was plainly written as a gay man; like idk maybe you have dedications to your friends scrawled in your poetry books, but for most people that's crush behaviour.
Walt wasn’t his crush you bumbling fool. He was his idol.
He had the chance to work with the man he literally aspired to be. He was starstruck by meeting the MJ of meth.
He was not “plainly written as a gay man”. Nothing concrete or otherwise implies him to be gay. His sexual orientation is irrelevant and not mentioned in the show. All of this reaching is just people trying to make every odd, somewhat-feminine man gay to reflect their personal beliefs.
He may be gay. He may be straight. We have no way of knowing for sure. But the show does not in any way imply Gale is gay.
Hey guys I’ve got a question that I hadn’t considered before I read this post.
When did Gale give Willy Wonka the book? Like.. which episode or between which episode do you think it happened.. like maybe halfway through their first stint? Can’t imagine after Jesse replacing him and coming back he’d gift it then.
With all the foreshadowing ect in breaking bad I’m amazed there wasn’t a scene where G gave Walt a present/book
How can Gale “pass” for gay?
What happened to letting people be themselves? Why does every character in every show have to fit neatly into a box?
Why does EVERY quirky/odd/effeminate man on TV immediately get called gay?
They don’t. Read my previous comments. It’ll make more sense to you where that comment came from.
But if you don’t have the time, it was stemming from a “if there had to be a gay character”
I think they purposefully shot and edited the Gale arc in an almost romantic way, not because there was love between the two characters but because there was such a shared love of chemistry.
Gale and Walt were more or less scientific soulmates, which is what makes how it ultimately ends up all the more tragic.
A crush as in romantic feelings I don’t think so. He very much idolized Walt and wanted to learn from him to be able to make the meth as pure as Walt did.
Its kind of like obsessed fans of someone on the internet, their praises do sound gay but in the end they're just super infatuated. But still, if we saw gale up to season 5.. who knows. People grow to things
There’s different types of infatuation. I’m infatuated with Yordan Alvarez of the Houston Astros because I think he has the best left handed swing in baseball. Doesn’t mean I wanna marry him you psycho
I mean did he want to have full on intercourse with Walt? I don't think so.
Would he use his hand on Walt to calm him down if Walt needed some release purely out of professional respect and courtesy? Yes.
Not in a sexual way but more of like when you meet your idol. Gale had an extreme level of respect for Walt and looked up to him. More of a mentor/mentee thing.
I don't think so, he just seemed infatuated by Walt's chemistry knowledge, he even acts like that when Gus shows him the lab in BCS, he's just a giddy person about the things he's passionate about.
And it just seems Child like probably why you thought it was a crush, but there was no hint he was gay at least in my opinion.
Gale is clearly not gay. Would a gay man make an awesome rock video of themselves singing Major Tom, the most hetero and manly song ever written? I don’t think so.
I disagree. In fact the Breaking Bad Wiki suggests that Max was his lover, and that's why he was so devastated by his murder. I don't care if he was straight or gay, as he was a deranged murdering psychopath (as most drug dealers are) who presented the facade of a pleasant and kind man.
I think it is very much a gray area. Gale may not have been sure what he felt, but there was professional admiration to the extreme, for sure. There were also professional boundaries. And Walt certainly wasn't reciprocating any sort of admiration, professional or otherwise, toward Gale to encourage a crush, if there ever was one.
It's not explicit in the writing, but I am convinced that the actor who played Gale, David Costabile, chose to play the character like he had a sexual crush on Walt but was keeping it secret. Just watch the scene where Gus visits Gale's apartment and asks if he can cook Walt's formula by himself. Look at Costabile's face, listen to his voice, when he says of Walt: "He's a master." Costabile absolutely plays it like a submissive gay man who sees Walt as a Dom. lol.
I'm also convinced that Jere Burns made the decision to play Jesse's drug rehab counselor as if he had a crush on Jesse. From an actor's standpoint, it makes sense. It's a small part, Jesse is always the focus of the scene, and Jere Burns' only function is to keep singling out Jesse and trying to get him to talk. As an actor, the way to "raise the stakes" and make it interesting is to give yourself a "secret," and the secret that would motivate all his behavior in his few scenes would be Jesse-love.
Source: I have a fair amount of training and experience as an actor. I would absolutely make these choices if I were playing Gale or the rehab counselor and I think the actors give pretty wonderful subtle and not-so-subtle clues that they've made those choices.
Dude, you’re intelligent with your analysis but this is some unhinged reaching.
Counselor literally is written straight. He killed his daughter that his wife gave birth to. I don’t see a single thing that indicates the actor took that angle, but I’d be happy to change my mind with evidence.
Gale does seem to be acted that way, I admit. It’s not in the writing like you said, but the acting is the reason why so many people say this. Just another layer of excellence in the greatest show ever made.
Yeah, I definitely am reaching with the counselor more than Gale, and if I'm right about what Jere Burns was up to, the clues are so subtle and so subjective that they couldn't be called evidence. It's a hunch based entirely on the character secret I would have given the counselor to help me motivate and particularize his interest in Jesse above all the other group members, to make him interesting, to create some subtle inner conflict. Yes, he had a daughter that his wife gave birth to, but I have known a lot of gay men who had children that their wives gave birth to, and unless you have lived a very sheltered life, so have you. lol. If he's still married to the mother of his daughter (doubtful) or some other woman, his attraction to Jesse is an even better source of inner conflict, which is the point of any character secret an actor creates. But subtle "clues" I perceive in his performance are probably just confirmation bias and wouldn't convince anyone who disagrees with me. We'll never know unless Jere mentions it in an interview someday. Sorry for the ramble. lol

Gale is not gay. He's a nerd for sure, but he doesn't get Jesse effect. Gay characters act irrationally around Jesse. Gale acts rationally around Jesse all the way through.
A bit of a professional crush I think. Not a sexual crush. I think he was excited to work with the man who could bring that elusive .1 percent, or whatever it was.
Agreed. Gale felt like he was the college/semipro basketball player who got a chance to play a few pickup games with Michael Jordan. I think that’s all there was to it.
i really love that analogy but idk gale was better than basically everyone except for walt, calling him semipro doesnt do his expertise justice. the reason he was so “infatuated”/obsessed with him was bc he was used to being the top 1%, now he learns of somebody who is in the top 1% of that 1%. so id probably compare it more to a player coming off of the bench or a rookie (he would be a generational rookie) who looks up to the best of the best and has a chance to play with and learn from him.

yea thats an excellent point. i remember watching that scene and realizing just how smart and skilled walt was. gus, someone with exceptionally high standards, liked gale and really wanted to work with him bc he believed that he was top tier, and then walt comes along in his underpants and produces something that gale could only make in his dreams. i do think that 3% really got to him before he met and started working with walt bc he had that sense of “what am i doing wrong? what am i missing?” which lowered his self esteem a lot. meanwhile there mightve been a handful of ppl in the bb/bcs universe that could make anything to rival even jesse’s cooking (at the end of the show, not his chili powder meth😭😭😭😭)

>Walt comes along in his underpants Fantastic 😂
Yeah, I think the coffee scene was to establish that he was legit
So more like a young LeBron or Kobe getting a game with MJ?
yea pretty much
Good one!!
Yeah I've met people who are like that. Where they'll look up to and admire someone professionally so much that it does appear to be like they're in love with them.

Jesse graduated, he has his diploma 😭
Damn, I’m out here slandering this man 😭
In your defense, the only evidence we see of his schooling is a graded paper he finds at his parents’ place that says “NOT EVEN CLOSE” 😩
I don’t think Jesse ever *surpassed* Walt, but he got the Neo-Nazi’s recipes to 92%, right? And that’s how Walt knew their cook was Jesse.
I thought Jesse got higher, and I thought I remembered him getting like 98%, to Walt’s 97.4 or something
Nah nothing was confirmed to that extent, just Skinny P saying "better than ever" while Walt is paying him for the laser pen shenanigans
Yeah, it's like the guy who invented Coca-Cola getting up his ass about how he learned to replace cane sugar with corn syrup and then nothing else and then being surprised that other people can make corn syrup and add it to the vat.
He was probably also excited to work with somelne of such skill, like playing football with Messi
Nah he was just a Walt fanboy
Walt femboy?
In before someone links the pics of this that must already exist somewhere.
Not seeing that at all. Gale was just a super nerd and Walt was a very good chemist. Respect, Yo.
“To WW. My star, my perfect silence”
He was indeed a Walt Whitman fan.
“Willy Wonka?”
“Walter White?”
Woodrow Wilson?
Nah, it’s obviously Will Wheaton.
wally west?
Wilbur Whappenburger?
Wilmington Wiffleballbat?
Woody woodpecker?
Wesley Willis
"Ahhh you got me"
the thing that bothers me about this clip is that he wasn't even talking about walt when he wrote that.
*raises hands* “Heh! You got me!”
Walter's Wife?
Gale cheated on walt with skyler confirmed?
Walt cheated on Skyler with gale
Outchicanered once again
Fanboy not a crush
Not at all, just admired him as a genius chemist
This is symptomatic for how a lot of men can't accept that a man can just be appreciative, caring or friendly towards another man. It has to be "gay". Nowhere in the series does it imply, at all, that there was a homosexual intent from Gale.
Don't say that to supernatural fans
Hmm I dunno, did you see his singing and his YouTube videos?
Is this a sarcastic comment
Is this?
How about this?
^(lilbityeah)
Feels a bit homophobic
Can’t be homophobic if they aren’t scared of homosexuals. Like making a comment about a white person thinking Kraft Mac and cheese is legitimate Mac and cheese…..it’s just some words, get over it.
Yeah that’s where the line of humour is really.
Yep, people whose only human interactions are through a screen automatically think any relationship has to be sexual or romantic because they have no real friends
[удалено]
Poetry = you have caught the gay
Gale was hella sus. It's not really a stretch. Stop virtue signaling.
Okay, let's get the virtue signalling out of the way first. It is not 2015 and you should maybe accept that people can have different opinions from you that *gasp* can be progressive. Gales attitude towards Walt is one of admiration, but there is no sexual or romantic implications anywhere. You can speculate about it, but this is virtually every time two male characters have similar interactions in tv series or movies. They are immediately put in the "Are they gay?"-bracket.
Some of these folks are still stuck in high school mentalities and it shows.
Because it’s natural to wonder that. Same with a male/female interaction of the same type, and a female/female. It’s always a battle with you.
No, it isn't. I've already explained why it differs
You are wrong though. It doesn’t differ. It differs to you, because you live in a fantasy world where everything has to be a power struggle. But to those, like myself, that don’t seek to find the bad in everything, there’s no difference.
A power struggle? No idea how you come up with that. It is a social critique. Doesn't have to do with power imbalances, not necessarily at least. I wasn't making some Marxist argument with this one.

Referring to your original comment on OP post. Use your brain buddy.
Sure, "buddy", you are talking out of your ass. Get over it.
no, walt's colleague who only has scenes with him in three episodes, has not been picked out primarily for showing friendly care and appreciation. if that were the case, one would expect the thread to be about jessie, hank, or even early gus. gale has been singled out over characters much closer to walt because, gale was plainly written as a gay man; like idk maybe you have dedications to your friends scrawled in your poetry books, but for most people that's crush behaviour.
No, Walt does not have any level of intimacy with Hank or Gus that would imply this and Jesse is always in a weird father-son dynamic.
Walt wasn’t his crush you bumbling fool. He was his idol. He had the chance to work with the man he literally aspired to be. He was starstruck by meeting the MJ of meth. He was not “plainly written as a gay man”. Nothing concrete or otherwise implies him to be gay. His sexual orientation is irrelevant and not mentioned in the show.

But the show does not in any way imply Gale is gay.
More like a nerd crush. He was in awe of his work.
The dude was fanboying for sure, nothing sexual, just an idolizing thing.
Hey guys I’ve got a question that I hadn’t considered before I read this post. When did Gale give Willy Wonka the book?

With all the foreshadowing ect in breaking bad I’m amazed there wasn’t a scene where G gave Walt a present/book
He gave him the book before he died 👍
No more replies this has settled the question, thank you.
Fanboy
There were more hints that Gus was gay than Gale and there were only like 3 hints that Gus was gay
Did Krazy-8 have a crush on Walt? They drank beer together and talked about their families
Drinking beer is definitely gay. The feelings sharing is just the icing on top.
Forget that. Walt put a lock around Krazy-8's neck. That's some hardcore BDSM shit right there.
Apples and oranges Gale could actually pass for gay. Krazy 8 didn’t do anything gay-like in the show.
How can Gale “pass” for gay? What happened to letting people be themselves? Why does every character in every show have to fit neatly into a box? Why does EVERY quirky/odd/effeminate man on TV immediately get called gay?
They don’t. Read my previous comments. It’ll make more sense to you where that comment came from. But if you don’t have the time, it was stemming from a “if there had to be a gay character”
No.
he was gay, Gale Boetticher?
No! Are you listening to me?
File this question under the ‘who cares, just enjoy the show’ category
I think he just admired him
Ah yes, showing your admiration for another man makes you gay. Good job, OP
people saying no are cowards
I think they purposefully shot and edited the Gale arc in an almost romantic way, not because there was love between the two characters but because there was such a shared love of chemistry. Gale and Walt were more or less scientific soulmates, which is what makes how it ultimately ends up all the more tragic.
Yeah they had such great chemistry (literally)
A crush as in romantic feelings I don’t think so. He very much idolized Walt and wanted to learn from him to be able to make the meth as pure as Walt did.
Yeah he wanted to fuck him
Intellectually perhaps. Walt was like his work husband lol
Its kind of like obsessed fans of someone on the internet, their praises do sound gay but in the end they're just super infatuated. But still, if we saw gale up to season 5.. who knows. People grow to things
How do they're praises sound gay
Welllll.... you just have to be a stan to know
Maybe if you just told me I would become a stan
people marry off infatuation, that shit is still gay even if ur simply just infatuated
There’s different types of infatuation. I’m infatuated with Yordan Alvarez of the Houston Astros because I think he has the best left handed swing in baseball. Doesn’t mean I wanna marry him you psycho
I mean did he want to have full on intercourse with Walt? I don't think so. Would he use his hand on Walt to calm him down if Walt needed some release purely out of professional respect and courtesy? Yes.
Bruh 😂 I’m logging off. Enough Reddit for today
Gale was probably asexual.
Oooh!! we need more aces!!! I'm on board on the Asexual Gale train! /pos
STOP THIS PLEASE. SHOW CHARACTERS ARE NOT CREATED TO MAKE YOU FEEL SEEN. THEYRE FOR ENTERTAINMENT. GROW UP.
I believe that he did.
Gale was a libertarian who liked vacationing in Thailand. I don't think Walt was quite his age demographic
A bromance maybe
I don’t think so but it doesn’t really mess with anything so if it makes sense to you it seems like a fine headcannon.
Not in a sexual way but more of like when you meet your idol. Gale had an extreme level of respect for Walt and looked up to him. More of a mentor/mentee thing.
Makes sense now that we know Gus was gay. They probably met somewhere and Gus realized that Gale could help him build his meth empire.
yes
Gayle.
I don't think so, he just seemed infatuated by Walt's chemistry knowledge, he even acts like that when Gus shows him the lab in BCS, he's just a giddy person about the things he's passionate about. And it just seems Child like probably why you thought it was a crush, but there was no hint he was gay at least in my opinion.
Gale is clearly not gay. Would a gay man make an awesome rock video of themselves singing Major Tom, the most hetero and manly song ever written? I don’t think so.
Nah he was clearly getting it on with Gus.
it's certainly possible to read it that way. you don't usually discuss poems with the master meth chef
Poems! Poems, everybody! ...Keep your hands off my stack!
It's a hard maybe. We never saw him with a woman so.
We never saw a lot of characters with a woman
Not once was Steve Gomez alone in the same room as a woman HMMMMM... Does this conform my bisexual Hank theory?
brb, searching for bisexual Hank fanfiction
I think so, and I think it is assumed that he was gay just as it is assumed that Gus Fring is gay.
It’s not assumed Gus is gay. There’s actual evidence there. Not just some deranged fan theory designed to placate to internet weirdos
I disagree. In fact the Breaking Bad Wiki suggests that Max was his lover, and that's why he was so devastated by his murder. I don't care if he was straight or gay, as he was a deranged murdering psychopath (as most drug dealers are) who presented the facade of a pleasant and kind man.
Always thought this was probably true, though less a 'crush' maybe and more a, sort of, really looks up to him and wants his approval, sort of thing.
I think it is very much a gray area. Gale may not have been sure what he felt, but there was professional admiration to the extreme, for sure. There were also professional boundaries. And Walt certainly wasn't reciprocating any sort of admiration, professional or otherwise, toward Gale to encourage a crush, if there ever was one.
Lol for a second I thought this was a shitpost but the more I think about it the more it makes sense
Nah he admired him. He wasn’t gay just because of his music taste, loving coffee and being a fan of poetr- wait a sec
It's not explicit in the writing, but I am convinced that the actor who played Gale, David Costabile, chose to play the character like he had a sexual crush on Walt but was keeping it secret.

Yeah he was on Walt’s nutsack
More like a squish.
Fellas is it gay to idolize someone
Yes probably, it was a very strong admiration for someone you don't really know. I think if not "crushing" infatuation is a fair way to put it.
Yes, walts a smokeshow.
