I have bad feelings about everything, but work off of reason or previous experience. Detecting something with no evidence is contrived.
It occurred to him, upon seeing his unsupervised car in an open semi-public space, that Jesse’s demand for an in-person visit called a lapse in security that Walt could try to exploit, even if Hesse and Walt aren’t working together. He just knows someone’s trying to kill him and he looked at the car and said ‘oh someone could have easily put a bomb there’, easy

if he was that worried about it why not leave a man to watch the car?

the other anons explained it well, it comes down many, many small factors in the distant past, the last couple of days and the immediate present all add up subconsciously to a gut feeling that triggers an alert for a seemingly unknown reason, a thought process of deliberation starts to happen that recalls and analyzes these factors to make a decision, why take the risk if you are 10% certain something fishy is going on? imagine not having these kinds of moments regularly, absolute npc tier that would be

This. Stupid people have like two modes, hating you because they think they know so much more, or hating you because they are totally confused by you, like you're magic.
they should've shown gus being overtly cautious in at least one other scene, maybe him taking extra precautions when he really didn't need to
really wouldn't have added to the runtime to do this, and god knows the show would've benefited from having one less WALTUH "MUH FAMILY" monologue to do so
would've explained this scene entirely
but sadly vince is a hack and the show's biggest blunder is being overtly theatrical with major plot points because, at the end of the day, its a tv series on prime-time talmud-vision for braindead NPCs
theres a "genius" who knows a lot about chemistry out there that REALLY wants to kill you, and you just left your car unattended for a while. you're also a veteran criminal who's been in the game for decades and most likely dealt with multiple assassination attempts.
do you really go in your car?

Because Jesse was acting weird just beforehand. He visibly flinches when Gus reaches towards him. He also had the knowledge that he didn't poison brock himself. So he began to suspect it may be Walt. He would then think why would Walt poison brock. Well because it got him to go to the hospital. Why would Walt want to get him to the hospital? So he can kill him obviously. So how would Walt kill him? probably by bomb because he knows of Walt's chemistry prowess and he's surrounded by goons at all times so approaching with a gun probably wouldn't work. He then concludes there's a bomb on his car and walks away.
Not only that, Gus is probably aware that during his early days Walt blew up Tuco's joint. It's a bit of a stretch that Gus wouldn't leave someone to watch his car, or that he would choose to abandon it after just thinking about it for a second, but it's believable.
If BCS has shown me anything it's that clairvoyance is a legit power in the BB universe and Gus and Lalo have it
fact. The writers are not handling well the characters consistency in this prequel
-"filtered" is not an argument tho,it makes any anon sounds like a moron
It's been ages since I saw it but wasn't Jesse suspiciously hanging around and acting dodgy? He probably got a bad vibe from him and left on the off chance he was being set-up.
Car bombs are one of the most organized crime ways to kill people. Gus was smart enough to realize this was a plot to lure him there and he left the car unguarded, which would be an oppurtune time. At the retirement home later in the episode he even leaves a guy to guard it. The real moronic thing was how Gus and his cronies never take the bomb or wait for Walt to come and retrieve it.
Gus can steal other people's powers. He stole Don Eladio's powers to run a criminal enterprise, which is why Eladio acted like such a moron despite obviously being at one point competent enough to attain a high position. He stole Lalo's future sight powers, which is why Lalo didn't sse him coming. He stole Jesse's youth, making Jesse appear older than he was while Gus's own age regressed.
But he can't keep the stolen powers forever. He lost his ability to manage a criminal enterprise part way through breaking bad, allowing himself to be convinced to take on Walt and Jesse and unable to control them. He lost his future sight powers just before Hector's bomb. If he had survived he would have lost Jesse's youth and we would have seen him spontaneously age.
The writers were less intelligent than the character was. Dumb people think intelligent people are magic.
You've never had a bad feeling that turned out to be true before?

Nah, I dig that the show has some looser plot aspects like this. Makes it feel more realistic to me and less Hollywood.
>its just a supernatural feeling
so he is a magician?

You’re such a beta pussy lol.
You're mad

>I didn't poison the kid so who did?
This, he knew the preceding events had been manipulated by someone for him to end up right here

he probably forgot, and realised his mistake while walking back

Try harder dude
People forget things anon
It was Jesse's behavior that tipped him off.
He does.
Because Jesse was acting weird just beforehand. He visibly flinches when Gus reaches towards him. He also had the knowledge that he didn't poison brock himself. So he began to suspect it may be Walt. He would then think why would Walt poison brock. Well because it got him to go to the hospital. Why would Walt want to get him to the hospital? So he can kill him obviously. So how would Walt kill him? probably by bomb because he knows of Walt's chemistry prowess and he's surrounded by goons at all times so approaching with a gun probably wouldn't work. He then concludes there's a bomb on his car and walks away.
Gus also knows Walt has familiarity with placing things under his car because he did it previously with the tracking device.
Not only that, Gus is probably aware that during his early days Walt blew up Tuco's joint. It's a bit of a stretch that Gus wouldn't leave someone to watch his car, or that he would choose to abandon it after just thinking about it for a second, but it's believable.
Why didnt he send one of his goons to check the car? Or wait in ambush to see if Walt came back to the car for the bomb?
Why didn't he hole up in his underground lair instead of visiting Hector?
Because he hated Hector and wanted to kill him himself
Everything they do with Gus in BCS is a horrible and moronic waste of time
Filtered.
fact. The writers are not handling well the characters consistency in this prequel
-"filtered" is not an argument tho,it makes any anon sounds like a moron
Gut instinct
Gus's gut.
Walt put his glasses on top of his head like an idiot, reflecting the sun
Gut feeling
BCS literally had him have a sixth sense like this though.
>HE KNEW ABOUT THE BOMB BECAUSE... UHM... HE JUST DID OK!
t. didn't even read the thread
It's been ages since I saw it but wasn't Jesse suspiciously hanging around and acting dodgy? He probably got a bad vibe from him and left on the off chance he was being set-up.
he also didn't poison the kid. if he didn't do it, only walt would've.
Or he could've just had some bad clams or whatever. People get sick all the time
He didn't. But he knew he left it unguarded for a little while and there was a potential risk, risk not worth taking.
he was once in a similar situation with jafar, who came from afar
If BCS has shown me anything it's that clairvoyance is a legit power in the BB universe and Gus and Lalo have it
he got an impression from the Ghost of Lalo
because the writers wanted the audience to be even more frustrated when gus seemingly walks out unscathed from hector's bomb.
he has limited future sight abilities that give him random future visions. That also explains how he knew to plant the gun in the excavator
