Breaking Bad Spoilers - Character Descriptions Reveal Rough Outline of Season 5

SKYLER WHITE

Now that Skyler, Walt's estranged wife, has discovered Walt's secret, she decides the only way to ensure the safety of her family is to get involved herself, and cover Walt's tracks as best she can. Reluctantly, Walt lets Skyler into his world, but she's not a natural criminal like Walt. Trying to get disentangled from former lover Ted Beneke's shady business mis-dealings, she takes desperate steps that backfire on her, leaving her hands dirtier than ever before. With the news of Gus'death, Skyler can't rest easy: the evil that Walt has become is now sleeping in her bed, just down the hall from Walt Jr. and baby Holly. Will Skyler's newfound complicity in Walt's dealings help save him from getting caught? Even if she's no longer concerned for her own safety--or her own soul--is she willing to put her children in harm's way?
