לכל פרק בסדרת המופת שובר שורות של וינס גיליגן היה פתיח מיוחד, חלקם זכורים יותר מאחרים. אחד מהם מבחינתי הוא הדיאלוג בין ג'ין מרגוליס לג'סי פינקמן אחרי שיצאו מתערוכה של האמנית ג'ורג'יה אוקיף בה הוצגו ציורים רבים של דלת. יש לדיאלוג הנפלא הזה משמעויות בהמשך הסדרה, ואפשר גם להסביר איתו מה מניע צלמים שוב ושוב לצלם אותם נושאים, או פרוייקטים צילומיים.
Jesse Pinkman: You know, I don't get it. Why would anyone paint a picture of a door, over and over again, like, dozens of times?
Jane Margolis: But it wasn't the same.
Jesse: Yeah, it was.
Jane: It was the same subject, but it was different every time. The light was different, her mood was different. She saw something new every time she painted it.
Jesse: And that's not psycho to you?
Jane: Well, then why should we do anything more than once? Should I just smoke this one cigarette? Maybe we should only have sex once, if it's the same thing.
Jesse: …no.
Jane: Should we just watch one sunset? Or live just one day? Because it's new every time. Each time is a different experience.
Jesse: Okay, fine. I guess the cow skull pictures were cool, but a door? I will say it again. A door.
Jane: Why not a door? Sometimes you get fixated on something, and you might not even get why. You open yourself up and go with the flow, wherever the universe takes you.
Jesse: Okay, so the universe took her to a door. And she got all obesessed with it, and just had to paint it 20 times until it was perfect.
Jane: No. I wouldn't say that. Nothing's perfect.
Jesse: Yeah? Well, I mean,
[looking to her]
Jesse: some things.
Jane: Aww, that was so sweet, I think I threw up in my mouth a little bit.
Jesse: You can't admit, just for once, that I'm right. Come on. That O'Keeffe lady kept trying over and over until that stupid door was perfect.
Jane: No. That door was her home and she loved it. To me, that's about making that feeling last.
