Walter White:
Let's break it down. Hydrogen. What does that give us?

Gretchen Schwartz:
We're looking at 63%.

Walter White:
Sixty-three, that is a big bite. My next step's gotta be oxygen.

Gretchen Schwartz:
Oxygen, 26%.

Walter White:
Twenty-six. There you have your water.

Gretchen Schwartz:
Carbon, 9%.

Walter White:
Carbon, 9.

Gretchen Schwartz:
For a total of 98%.

Walter White:
Right.

Gretchen Schwartz:
Nitrogen, 1.25%.

Walter White:
One-point-two-five.

Gretchen Schwartz:
That brings you to 99 and a quarter. Which only leaves you with the trace elements down where the magic happens.

Walter White:
Oh, wait a minute. What about calcium? Calcium's not a trace. Got a whole skeleton to account for.

Gretchen Schwartz:
You would think, right? Calcium's only 0.25%.

Walter White:
What? That low? Seriously? Damn, I never would've thought that. Okay, so where does iron fit in.

Gretchen Schwartz:
Iron. 0.00004%

Walter White:
What? You can't have hemoglobin without iron.

Gretchen Schwartz:
Apparently, it don't take take much. No doubt. Go figure.

Walter White:
Sodium.

Gretchen Schwartz:
Sodium, 0.04%. Phosphorus, 0.19%.

Walter White:
Point-one-nine. There we go. So the whole thing adds up to... 99.888042%. We are 0.111958%. Shy.

Gretchen Schwartz:
Supposedly that's everything.

Walter White:
Yeah? I don't know, it just... it seems like something's missing, doesn't it? There's got to be more to a human being than that.

Gretchen Schwartz:
What about the soul?

Walter White:
The soul? There's nothing but chemistry here.
