No way in hell Hank can nail Walt. It would also implicate Skylar and I really don't see him doing that to his wife.

I agree that Walt/Hank will somehow work something out and Walt is free until the Aryans come after him for selling them out. Walt can pin the 10 hits on Mike since he's nowhere to be found.

I think Walt will work with Hank to frame Jesse as Heisenberg. We know Hank almost lost his career for his obsession with Jesse, it would be the ultimate vindication for Hank. Hank would appear to be right about Fring and Jesse, while it was really Walt who served up both of them.



Unfortunately I could see something like this happening. Jesse is my favorite character but I can see Hank going to Walt knowing it would be in both their best interest if they put it all on Jesse somehow.

I think this is why Walt has the M-60. Perhaps he's on the run from them after they've killed his family.

Vince Gilligan looks like Petyr Baelish.

I just don't see Hank striking a deal with Walt. The dude has always been about getting the bad guy no matter the consequnces.

Hank's not going to deal with Walt, but it's really interesting to see how this plays out. I just wish we didn't have 10 months to wait!

Exactly. I refuse to think VG will have the next 8 focus on Hank/Walt. I think he will clear up that pretty quick (probably with Walt killing Hank) and then move on to the inevitable Jesse/Walt ending.

Although a good alternative would be Walt/Jesse joining forces at the end and going out in a blaze of glory together. I think Walt dies via Jesse or they both die together, as friends.

The more I think about it, I don't think the show will end with Walt labeled a "bad guy". The cancer has probably returned which means Walt will sacrifice himself for Jesse and his family.

Once again, why would walt change identities and skip town if his cancer was killing him?

I just hope Walt at least tries his famous Blue Meth before the show ends.

I think it's strange they keep going out their way to have Walt Jr answer a call from Louis and walk out the room.

100% sure Walt Jr is smoking the meth. Whatcha bet.

That's a pretty good Heisenberg dialogue. All those points are valid.

Not discrediting this theory, but is that not what teenage boys do? I never wanted to talk to my friends in front of my parents, and I definitely wasn't doing the blue stuff. I always thought of it as a way to him out of the room so the adults could talk.

Everybody just hates Jr cause deep down they know when he slams that door and goes to work it's like he's getting some strange each and every time.

They're just reminding us that he's still on the show and that there used to be this redeeming human fatherly compassionate man that was overcoming ridiculous roadblocks.

Where the show has gone in season 5, Walt Jr. really has no value to the story, plus he's 17 or so. Being around my family was the last thing I did or wanted to do at that age. (well any age it seems) They need to show Walt. Jr getting involved with some slutty trailer chicks that jump on the pain train b/c of the car and get him doing some crazy shite.

They've already tried to buy beer like dumbasses. Hank would probably give them a case of Schraderbock if they told him they really liked it.

I think it's kind of interesting how cooking meth has impacted Jesse in a positive way. He is a mature, thoughtful person now. He's not greedy and doesn't want to hurt anyone, even Todd. In the beginning he was a punk tweeker. He is the only person on the show that is a better person now than when the show started. Everyone else has been corrupted either knowingly or unknowingly but Jesse has been redeemed. That's why I think in the end Jesse walks away unscathed or he knowingly takes the fall selflessly.

I forget which season it is but one of the early eps. When Jesse goes home, and takes the rap on the joint for his kid brother. You could see he was really wanting to make some changes and be a part of his family again.

Too bad parents seem to never get out of that a-hole mom and dad mode to actually sit down and have a convo, and really talk about what's going on and how to proceed and how accomplish what they want for their kids and evolve the relationship in positive way.

We're all taking for granted that Jesse will be involved in the last 1/2 but who knows maybe they write him out taking his $ and going to New Zealand and learning how to paint.

Jesse won't be written out of the final 8. If anything, Jesse might see the path to a normal life. Sure he was at his best working at the top, but if he can harness that energy away from cooking than he will have truly grown up.

The character turns this show has done have been outstanding, even if addition by subtraction. Marie was insufferable early on, but now she is very much a loving person (granted she written less for now), Hank went from a-hole BIL to the hero of the piece. Of course Walt Jesse and Skylar have all morphed into something else from the pilot.

My only question is where is Saul's turn?He is everyone's favorite and was written out mostly in Season 5.1
