Breaking Bad Open Thread: “To’hajiilee”

BBep5
To’ha what now? For the uninformed (read: me), Wikipedia says:

The Tohajiilee Indian Reservation, formerly known as the Canoncito Indian Reservation, is a non-contiguous section of the Navajo Nation lying in parts of western Bernalillo, eastern Cibola, and southwestern Sandoval counties in New Mexico, USA, west of the city of Albuquerque. It has a land area of 314.911 km² (121.588 sq mi) and a 2000 census resident population of 1,649 persons. The land area is only about one-half of one percent of the entire Navajo Nation total. It appears many times throughout the television series Breaking Bad, and the 13th episode of the 5th season, “To’hajiilee” is named after the reservation.

It appears many times in BB? Huh. Does it appear in a way that we should know the name or just what it looks like? Is it significant that the episode title has an apostrophe, but the Wiki entry for the actual place has no apostrophe? I have a feeling Susie can answer all of my questions. Because she is the best.

This episode takes us past the halfway point. What needs to happen between now and the series finale? I can’t piece it together. Have you read any good BB stories/blog posts? Give us your links below, twunts.
