Walter:
What are you doing?

Skyler:
I'm going to Hank and Marie's for the weekend.

Walter:
Since when?

Skyler:
I'm taking the baby with me. Marie will pick up Walter Jr. from school. You will have the house to yourself for two days. I want you to pack your things and leave.

Walter:
Why would I do that?

Skyler:
Hank has offered to help since you shouldn't be doing any heavy lifting.

Walter:
Skyler...

Skyler:
I want you gone by Monday morning. I want...I want you gone.

Walter:
Okay, can you at least tell me why?

Skyler:
Because you're a liar, Walt. Two cell phones after all.

Walter:
What?

Skyler:
Right before your surgery, I asked if you had packed your cell phone and you said, "Which one?"

Walter:
When? Skyler, I was medicated. I mean, I could have said the world was flat.

Skyler:
You know what I think? I think you accidentally told the truth.

Walter:
Honey, we have been over this. Asked and answered, right? There-

Skyler:
But then it got me thinking again about the all the strange behavior. Not the least of which was the disappearance. Out of my mind with worry, calling hospitals, checking the morgue. Your fugue state? I had to believe that, didn't I? I had to find a way. I mean, who would lie about such a thing?

Walter:
You tell me, Skyler. You tell me exactly what it is you think I'm lying about. What, an affair? I'm having an affair? Is that what you think?

Skyler:
That's what I was thinking, yeah. For the last few weeks.

Walter:
With whom? Who am I having an affair with?

Skyler:
Well, my guess was Gretchen Schwartz. Something was going on between you. I just knew.

Walter:
Jesus, Skyler. Get me a Bible to swear on, if that's what it takes. I am not having an affair with Gretchen!

Skyler:
Oh, I know. I know you're not. 'Cause I asked her. It really took me forever to get in touch with her. She was ducking my calls for weeks. So I finally left a message, "What exactly is going on between you and my husband?" I thought that'd get her attention and it did. So she called me back and she finally told me. The money? For your treatment? Gretchen and Elliott didn't give you a dime. They paid for nothing. You refused every offer they made you, but that didn't make sense because I checked with Delcavoli in the hospital and, not including your surgery, we're nearly paid up. Over $100,000. Out of where? Out of thin air? But then, I called your mother. Yeah. Thanks for that, too. But I thought, y'know, maybe she has some money that I don't know about? Maybe she contributed? It's possible. It turns out that not only is the money not your mother, she didn't even know that you have cancer. You never went to see her. I dropped you at the airport, I picked you up, you were gone for four days, and yet she swears that you were never there. Lies on top of lies on top of lies.

Walter:
Skyler...

Skyler Could you, just once, do me the courtesy of not denying it?

[Walter is silent. Skyler heads to the car]

Walter:
Skyler...Skyler, don't do this, please. I...I...Skyler, please don't go. [Skyler tries to close the car door, but Walter stops her] If I tell you the truth, will you stay? Stay and I will tell you everything.

Skyler:
Whatever it is, I'm afraid to know.

[Skyler closes the car door and drives off]
