Jesse Pinkman isn't the good guy of Breaking Bad. He's something more interesting — a person whose psychological wounds made him perfectly exploitable by someone who knew exactly how to use them.

In this episode, we break down Jesse's personality through the Big Five model and attachment theory to understand why he stays, why he trusts, and why he keeps walking toward the people and situations that confirm the one belief he carries everywhere he goes.

This channel analyses fictional characters through psychology — using the Big Five personality traits and attachment theory to explain why people behave the way they do. New episodes regularly.
