Trivia
The title is about the self-destructive ways in which Marie Schrader as well as Jesse Pinkman try to distract themselves from facing their deteriorating lives: Marie by her role playing/kleptomania during actual open houses and Jesse by "opening" his house to derelict meth heads and partying non-stop.

Goofs
When Marie is admiring the spoon collection, the realtor says that there is one for each state, and Marie points out that Puerto Rico is a territory. This would indicate that there are 51 spoons. There are actually 54 in the display case.

The Girls Take Over

Two characters fans hate have a chance to shine here while the male leads ride shotgun: As pathetically guilty Jesse begins squandering his money, Hank begins a case that will grow and Walt is Mr Mom, Skylar has her best episode conning the eyebrows guy from the car wash business, and her scenes with Saul right from when they first met, are wonderful... I think she compliments his sleazy nature better than anyone (mind you, in Better Call Saul he becomes a leading man, so perfect girl Kim doesn't count because he's NOT the same character on that series)...

And best yet Marie and her stealing has always been fun; especially when she calls the realtor lady "Fatty" that was hilarious...

Kudos to the lady's of Breaking Bad despite the fact they get no respect otherwise.
