Please limit your spoiler discussions of the series finale of the show that makes everything else look like a documentary on shark jumping to this thread. I know we have some folks who do not get to watch until a day or so later, and I don't want this board to be the reason they punch their computers.

PS: My prediction for the end is that all the characters make up in the first five minutes and have a big laugh about the whole thing, and just take turns punching Marie for the rest of the episode. That would be a completely satisfying finale for me.

I like David's prediction: Walt wakes up next to Suzanne Pleshette and realizes it's all been a dream.

Otherwise, my only need is to have Jesse say "bitch" with just a fraction of his old panache.

Walt jr. takes over the family biz, while cooking meth inhales a chemical that cures his polio.......then Uncle Hank comes back to life as a walker (zombie) this ties Breaking Bad to the Walking Dead and it's renamed Walking Bad, Walt becomes president of the "new World" this new world is Under A Dome where only non walkers can exist.....Saul returns from the Wizard of Oz summer camp where he has learned many new skills he and skyler have a affair which produces one of those little flying monkeys from the wizard of oz movie...........and so on and so forth....Better Call Saul, Well push me further BITCH!

I still think Walt Jr. is the secret mastermind. Final scene- Walt pulls the big gun out, Walt Jr. is standing there with the nazis, Walt Jr. drops the crutches and the speech, Walt Sr. gets iced and it ends. Totally makes sense. Who would expect a kid with a speech impediment and crutches to be a criminal mastermind? The "Flynn" name is just a small hint of what he's really capable of.

Oh, no no no.my other need is to see Junior eat it. Maybe poison his cereal? Unmask him as the 30-year-old whiny bitch he is?

What is this "Breaking Bad?" I'm beginning to hear a little chatter. Must be some new pop culture thing?

It's an awesome show you should be watching instead of pretending you've never heard of to look hip.

By the way, I'm not making any predictions, because there's almost no ending that wouldn't be satisfying at this point. And one thing that's always been a constant in the show is that everyone does exactly what they're supposed to do, pretty much all the time.

If i we're going to make some predictions, I'd say this: I think Jessie gets out alive, as do Skylar and Holly. I give Walt jr. 50/50. I think Jesse takes out Todd and most if not all of the Todd club. Even if Jesse doesn't make it, I see him taking Todd with him. Let's not forget that there exists a cell phone with a picture of Jesse with his head blown off (even if it is buried in the desert. That certainly doesn't mean it's out of play). Jesse, with a barrel of cash and lots of folks believing he's dead could get a long way from ABQ. He only leaves if he can take Brock with him, though.

I think whoever the ricin ends up inside it does so because someone consciously took it themselves. I can see Jesse doing it after realizing he's the last man standing after a blood bath. But Walt's also gone on a mission to right some wrongs in the last couple episodes, and ricin works slow. It would not surprise me at all to find out that Walt punched his own ticket just moments before beginning the telling of his story to the DEA, and exonerating (or at least attempting to) Skylar and his family in the process.

Had a coworker go on a mini-tirade about Breaking Bad, and how those who watch are glorifying criminals and drug dealers.

Because he only watches good, honest, God-fearin' shows like Duck Dynasty.

Yeah, if we could just never have a non-work related conversation ever again...that'd be great.

I watched one of the episodes (Walt buys the motorhome and they go out into the desert to cook the first batch) during the marathon and must say it was pretty darn good. I need to watch the whole thing chronologically but not sure if that will ever happen.

Whenever I see an old motorhome, I think I will always think of this show lol.

I am reasonably certain that is the first episode of the series.

I have to admit I didn't start following the series until maybe 6 weeks ago, I happened to catch a episode and damn if I didn't get hooked. I'm gonna que up all the earlier episodes and watch them.

I think the neo Nazis will kidnap Walt Jr., Walt Sr. will take out all the neo Nazis and die in the fight. Walt Jr. will find the ~$70 million and use it to cure his polio in some hospital in Thailand where cash is king. Skyler will finally realize how much Walt Sr. was willing to sacrifice to keep his family afloat after he was gone and feel guilty as hell but that won't stop her from helping Walt Jr. spend hell out of it.

Somewhere along the line his ex business partner is gonna get it, too; what he said about Walt in the TV interview obviously royally pissed Walt off and is why he changed his mind about turning himself in at the last minute.

And yes punching Marie in the throat would be HIGHLY satisfying.

Or maybe he will wake up in bed with Jane Kaczmarek.

Been hooked on BB from the get go but missed the last two complete seasons because of my shift change w/ an early start Sunday nights. No idea where it's gone since then. Guess I'll hafta catch up over the winter, prolly buy the whole set.

From what I've seen Gilligan do up to that point it's bound to be awesome.

Marty Robbins - El Paso Lyrics

Out in the West Texas town of El Paso I fell in love with a Mexican girl. Night-time would find me in Rosa's cantina; Music would play and Felina would whirl.

Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina, Wicked and evil while casting a spell. My love was deep for this Mexican maiden; I was in love but in vain, I could tell.

One night a wild young cowboy came in, Wild as the West Texas wind. Dashing and daring, A drink he was sharing With wicked Felina, The girl that I loved.

So in anger I

Challenged his right for the love of this maiden. Down went his hand for the gun that he wore. My challenge was answered in less than a heart-beat; The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor.

Just for a moment I stood there in silence, Shocked by the FOUL EVIL deed I had done. Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there; I had but one chance and that was to run.

Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran, Out where the horses were tied. I caught a good one. It looked like it could run. Up on its back And away I did ride,

Just as fast as I

Could from the West Texas town of El Paso Out to the bad-lands of New Mexico.

Back in El Paso my life would be worthless. Everything's gone in life; nothing is left. It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden My love is stronger than my fear of death.

I saddled up and away I did go, Riding alone in the dark. Maybe tomorrow A bullet may find me. Tonight nothing's worse than this Pain in my heart.

And at last here I

Am on the hill overlooking El Paso; I can see Rosa's cantina below. My love is strong and it pushes me onward. Down off the hill to Felina I go.

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys; Off to my left ride a dozen or more. Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me. I have to make it to Rosa's back door.

Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel A deep burning pain in my side. Though I am trying To stay in the saddle, I'm getting weary, Unable to ride.

But my love for

Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen, Though I am weary I can't stop to rest. I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle. I feel the bullet go deep in my chest.

From out of nowhere Felina has found me, Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side. Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for, One little kiss and Felina, good-bye.

Somehow I didn't make that connection till I was like 3 seasons in, then the show got that much better.

My only prediction is the M60 is probably reserved for the people at Gray Matter, judging by its time of acquisition and the sudden change of plans in the previous episode.

Trivia: The Caddy must have a 425, the 500 was only used in the Eldorado except 1976 which is the only year when it was used all through the lineup. I believe the car in that scene was a 1977 meaning it could only have a 425.
