I have heard from a very reliable source that the final shot of the final episode is Huell, sitting on the bed in that motel room, looking at his watch and saying, "Fuck it, I'm outta here."

So? OK, I'm a bit disappointed that we don't find out what really happened at Grey Matter all of those years ago, but many loose ends were tied up quite nicely. The directing in this episode was superb. The scenes with his family were heartbreaking, yet kind of touching. Walt finally tells the truth. I guessed right about the ricin being for Lydia and the machine gun being for the Nazis. I'm still not quite sure how he made it all the way to New Mexico without being caught. The cold opening confused me a bit. The last scene between Walt and Jesse was so intense. I was surprised Marie wasn't more of a pivotal character in the finale? What happened to Huell and Saul? Any other questions? All in all, I was happy with this episode.

I liked the way everything went down. I don't think the episode needed anymore Marie because was all about Walt wrapping up loose ends. More Marie would have just been a distraction, I think. Saul is in Nebraska with a new identity but I did wonder what was going to become of Huell, and Jesse for that matter.

You and me both. Well put. I guess we may find out on Better Call Saul re: what happens to him unless it really it is the prequel they're claiming. I'd be more interested in Saul the Cinnabon manager in Omaha, though either would be cool.

i am guessing the opening scene was a car right outside of the bar or somewhere near it.i don't know what he was thinking about being caught though to get home, since he never would have made bail and died in jail. i think they just kind of glossed over the fact he would have gotten picked up right away, since it would have taken him at least 2 days or more to get out to NM, and he prolly couldn't drive non stop in his condition anyway. my guess is huell gets his freedom since they said he could leave at any time and there is nothing to tie him to anything now. i think saul ends up someplace else besides omaha.
i thought the episode was pretty good, but you kind of figured it was going to play out that way with the machine gun. at some point i thought they were all going to die, that might have been a little cooler. i still would have liked to have seen jesse die, but i guess he is broke and wanted by the police now, so it's not like he is off scott free. i don't think you needed anything else from marie or the family either, they kind of got that out of the way with the previous two episodes. ozymandias was the best episode of the last season by far, but i felt that the last two were not as good by comparison. that said, it's hard to end a show perfectly and i think they ended the series before it ever got to a jump the shark/lame season thing most shows end up suffering from.

yeah, i think the way they showed him bailing so fast and the look of elation/desperation on the final shot of his face leaving the compound that he is not a free man at all. walt spared his life, but now he is essentially in the same place as walt. as in he has no one left that cares about him and he is broke. i think the video of him confessing to hank was still playing on the tv when they showed hank's house after it had been ransacked. i guess you think at some point hank must have revealed what he was doing to someone other than gomez, maybe just before they went to the money/shootout site.

My brother wanted everyone to die, too. I had the same thoughts about Jesse that you have. He's the only one that the DEA can come down on now. I suppose they might find evidence at the compound of him helping Hank (if it wasn't destroyed) but there's a good chance that he's a wanted man now. Where's he gonna go? Saul's gone, he can't go to the vacuum guy because he doesn't know who he is and, if I recall correctly, you get only one chance with him. Plus, he has no money. So, Jesse is free for now, but for how long?

but yeah, jesse should have died, he is a bitch. he couldn't even kill walt at the end and do him the favor, but i guess it was ultimately a moot point as he was shot and obviously done for dramatic effect.

If last night's episode wasn't that, I don't know what was. I mean think about it. Walt's kids will get their money, Elliott and Gretchen were scared out of their wits for defaming Walt, the Nazis and Lydia died as did Todd (how great was that scene; so happy they let Jesse have that) and Skyler (and the kids) and Marie were spared.

"...but halfway through, at around the time that Walt was gazing at Walt, Jr., I became fixated on the idea that what we were watching must be a dying fantasy on the part of Walter White, not something that was actually happening—at least not in the “real world” of the previous seasons.
And, if that were indeed the case, I’d be writing a rave."
