(DON'T) HOLD YOUR BREATH

Nacho watches the rowing boat bobs slightly in the water. Jesse says he got it for "next to nothing", but if that's true, then he's impressed, because it looks surprisingly sturdy. He looks back at Jesse, peers back down at the boat, back at Jesse. He can't resist cracking, "Next to nothing, huh? Not haunted, is it?"

It's just a joke, but it kind of isn't. Nacho realizes he's gotten disturbingly nonchalant about the possibility of certain things being haunted. Checking random objects for vengeful spirits is like checking an old, dilapidated building for termites.

He does end up slipping into the boat, though. "As I'll ever be, man. Let's go."
