"Buried" is the tenth episode of the fifth season of the American television drama series Breaking Bad, and the 56th overall episode of the series. Written by Thomas Schnauz and directed by Michelle MacLaren, it aired on AMC in the United States and Canada on August 18, 2013.
An elderly man, while collecting money which Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) was seen throwing away in the previous episode, discovers him parked in a playground and absentmindedly spinning on a merry-go-round. Meanwhile, after his confrontation with Hank (Dean Norris), Walt (Bryan Cranston) frantically tries calling Skyler (Anna Gunn), but cannot get through as Hank has already reached her. Walt rushes to the car wash, but Skyler has already left to meet Hank at a diner. Hank, believing Skyler to be a victim, inadvertently reveals that Walt's cancer has returned and unsuccessfully tries seeking her help in building up a case against him while he still lives. Sensing that Hank has his own aims to control the case and have Walt swiftly brought to justice, Skyler panics, and leaves.
Walt goes to Saul Goodman's (Bob Odenkirk) office. Walt is angered that Skyler went to Hank before him, believing she may have confessed. When Saul asks whether Walt has considered having Hank killed, Walt sternly admonishes him, reminding him that Hank is family. Rushing to hide the money he has amassed, Walt has Kuby (Bill Burr) and Huell (Lavell Crawford) deliver it to him in container drums. He then drives to the desert and spends the whole day burying it.
