Breaking Bad (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

[SpookyFrank]

The entire internet is demanding to know what happened to Huell. There's just no pleasing some people.

 

[Doctor Carrot]

Out of interest who do we think Walt bought the big fuck off gun from? I assume off the same bloke he bought the snub nose from. It's the only question I have that isn't answered conclusively, that and whether Huell ever left the hotel room.

 

[Doctor Carrot]

I really enjoyed it. It delivered in every way and stayed true to its roots. It seems the critics agree.

The second review makes a good point. We still don't know for certain exactly what happened between Walt, Gretchen and Elliot.

It's America remember? He probably bought it at Wal-Mart.

I liked the scene with Jesse making the box. That was the box he said he made (in season 1), and sold for weed. That was his happy place.

Loved the last episode. It was absolutely the ending BB needed.

You need to watch the intro to Season 5 Episode 1. But yes, same arms dealer as before.

Stop lying.

Last scene is Walt Jr limping along the pavement and his limp starts getting better until he's walking normally. Saul Goodman gives him a knowing nod as he holds open a car door for him. Walt Jr puts on Heisenberg hat and gets into the car, which Saul drives away.

......and like that, he's gone.

Haha nice one

Didn't think of that. Nice touch.

I thought it was more to be in the place of his proudest achievement, but that's a nice thought.

brilliant. Fantastic series and I like it being neatly wrapped up for the most part. I don't need to know what Jessie does, he's happy to be alive and that's enough for me.
Never found out who Gus was and why the cartel didn't kill him in the flashback either.

Barely anything is accidental in BB, this would be especially true in the final 5 mins. They lost Walt for months so it would make sense (to them) that he was cooking the blue meth with the Nazis.

Bedtime and supper plates still on table - I've not moved.1. 2 .3
When's the next one?
So who the fuck was it that started me watching a silly TV program every monday morn ?
Sod You.
Thank you < with a pork-pie hat.

Car stolen from New Hampshire?

 

[Mumbles274]

One of the most, if not the most epic shows I've ever seen. I only started watching the whole lot about 2 weeks ago so have had the pleasure of episode after episode right to the final conclusion...

Seeing it like that really ramped up the tension from show to show.. What a story

Now what can I watch?

 

[SpookyFrank]

Now what can I watch?

Boardwalk Empire is still rattling along nicely. That's about the only ongoing drama series I've got any interest in atm.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

That was utterly fantastic. Nothing more to say really

He gave himself away by making that phone call from New Hampshire though, and they've clearly found his little cabin with its backlog of Albquerque newspapers

e2a: With Hank and Gomie gone maybe nobody at the police/DEA even knows about Jessie though.

 

[Part 2]

Badger and Skinny Pete. Hitmen yo.

 

[keybored]

Biggest closure for me was Walt finally making Jesse his robot

Talking Bad here if anyone wants it

 

[neonwilderness]

A good way to end I reckon. Most of the main plots were tied up, but there's still plenty of unanswered questions too. Plus you got to see some Nazis getting their comeuppance

Am I just imagining it, or was the car Walt drove into the compound the same model that Mike used to drive? When he's driving in it reminded me of the bits where Mike and Jesse were driving around a while back.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

That did the job.

 

[girasol]

yeah, quite satisfied with that. It felt like it only lasted 30 minutes, the final episode, but apparently not... Poor Jesse, I bet he curses the day he and Walt got together... I would have been gutted if he died!

I did guess the ricin was in the sweetener as soon as she stirred her tea...

It wouldn't surprise me, he pretty much was Mike for a lot of that episode. Especially at Gretchen and Elliot's.

Elliot, if we're going to go that way, you'll need a bigger knife

Someone on reddit nailed that over a year ago. I was quite impressed.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

Had an hour or so to mull it over.

Hmmm. Good as it was, they did basically take the "safe" option. Those that should have died, did. Walt dead, nazis dead, money will go to Walt Jnr, Marie will get peace coz they will find Hanks body, Jesse got away etc.

All a bit neat and tidy really.

Would have been nice to have a surprise or two in there, or at least a cliffhanger/some ambiguity.

 

[girasol]

The ending is amazing. They all get on a big boat, crash into an iceberg and then sink!

I didn't dare coming back to read an alert on this thread, therefore I didn't read this until just now, i.e. after I watched the end

 

[neonwilderness]

Has anyone sussed why Walt left his watch (the one Jesse bought for his birthday?) on top of the pay phone at the start?

I read elsewhere that Vince Gilligan explained it on Talking Bad...

He said the artsy reason is because it's something jesse gave him, and he realizes he's not on good terms with jesse and doesn't want his watch.

Then he says the actual reason they did it is because in the flashforward in 5A he didn't have his watch on.
