We were thinking this:

Gus had to die but the way they did it was unbelievable....I was completely fooled by that sideways stance.
Walt poisoned the boy wanting to convince Jesse that Gus had done it because he (gus) was just that evil and Jesse couldn't trust him. Walt needs Jesse, I don't know why, but he does and he had to go to any lengths to get Jesse back on his side, even poisoning the kid. Although, he did poison him with something he could survive so he isn't completely corrupted...yet.

You say Mike wasn't involved? We think he is; in the second to last scene when Walt drives away from the parking spot he stops his car and gazes directly into what appears to be the dash of a car. The camera refocuses to an image of the chicken restaurant logo...which is two chickens hugging like buddies. When Gus was poisoned at the cartel villa and Mike was shot, Mike was almost left to die. Several times in the end of the series Walt offers to kill Gus "Just leave me alone in a room with him". We think that Mike might not have helped but let Walt kill Gus. Maybe Mike realized that the money isn't with the middle man but with the producer who is capable of being the middle man as well, that is Walt.

I was shocked at how easily Walt murdered Gus, his side kick and the two guys at the laundry...he's a cold blooded killer now, no turning back. (but hasn't he been all along?)

So, let the haters come in here and call me a nerd, don't care. I think the show is fucking brilliant, I wanna talk about it.
