I'm forgetting how Brock's poisoning had to do with Gus, since you seem sure on this point I wonder if you can remind me...

Basically he needed Jesse's help to kill Gus, so Brock's poisoning was to make Jesse think that Gus had given him Ricin.

See, I was thinking that Brock's poison was more about Jesse but then with these comments I thought it was maybe more than that. But really it isn't. Ever since the beginning Walt has been trying to find ways to get Jesse to stay with him when Jesse wants out because of the horrible things that are happening. So I can't see this as a desperate measure. It's just another thing he's done to keep Jesse at his side. A desperate thing is something that is done as a last resort, not something that takes time like poisoning a barely related third party. This is too much planning to be so desperate. And it was a toxin he hadn't ever used before or dosed, so it was very fortunate that the child didn't die but he easily could have. I think there are many other ways he could have convinced someone (maybe not even Jesse) to help against Gus. The fact that we don't think of them is because the show didn't present other options to us, because this is what Walt chose to do. But I don't think it was presented as the desperate action of a scared or desperate man, it was presented as Walt finally going to that next level down.
