DESTIN — Two men were arrested after they were spotted drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana in a parking garage.

An Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office deputy working security at Destin Commons was alerted to the pair after video surveillance picked up on their activities, according to the arrest reports.

When the deputy approached the men, he observed the 19-year-old quickly conceal something as the 21-year-old tried to drive the vehicle away.

The deputy stopped the driver and as he approached the vehicle he smelled what his “training and knowledge lead me to believe was burnt marijuana,” and questioned the two men.

Both admitted that they had been smoking and drinking in the parking garage. A search of the vehicle revealed some marijuana, a glass smoking pipe and empty beer bottles.

We went to several stores to see for ourselves.

We didn’t see anything on display, only pipes clearly labeled for tobacco use only.  So we sent in our undercover operative Sonny.

“I was told to ask for a glass rose pipe, that’s what I asked for and he pulled out a pen, I was confused at first.  So I asked again for the rose.  He didn’t even say anything he just pulled it apart and showed me it’s a pipe,” said Sonny.

But Breaking Bad is not really about drugs. It’s about the Old Testament consequences of what ought to be foreseeably bad choices. Still, it’s not a morally orderly world. In some ways it’s as paranoid and borderline supernatural as The X-Files (on which its creator, Vince Gilligan, previously wrote) or Pulp Fiction –era Quentin Tarantino (to which Gilligan sometimes refers). “The meth started off more as a structural component,” says Gilligan. “What was interesting to me was a protagonist making money doing the worst thing you could conceivably do to make money.” That would be Walter White, a 50-year-old chemistry teacher with lung cancer, played by Bryan Cranston. Walter decides that he’ll provide for his family and, perhaps more to the point, prove that he’s been underestimated by the world all along by making the Southwest’s best meth. To execute that plan, he recruits a former student, Jesse, who was already in that line of work on a more artisanal scale.
