Because he would have reacted when Jesse kicked the door in. I don’t know how long that scene lasted, but it was long enough that if anybody were home I think they would have at least said something.
And Vince Gilligan. That was really the best part of the video.
1). Final scene: Junior sitting at the breakfast table, milk drooling out of the corner of his mouth, staring vacuously at a snow globe. The flakes are blue instead of white.
2). Anything that involves the ‘good guys’ triumphing completely, and in a traditional, non-extrajudicial manner—all of the baddies behind bars, and all innocents safely in WITSEC or even just going about their normal routines.
3). Walt suicides. Somehow that would just be too lazy.
4). Walt forgot to check the white van for tracking devices, and Huell and Kuby go dig up his booty and abscond to Mexico with it.
To flesh it out a little: we see Huell get on a bus and arrive at a beach in Mexico. He walks across the sand and meets Kuby, who is smiling and building a boat.
Worst Breaking Bad ending ever:
As it turns out, Walt is actually a vampire.

Walt goes into the corner grocery:
“Pack of Newports… soft pack.”
Some 12 year-old walks in, shoots him in the head, drops the gun and runs out of the store.

I know I’m not the only one to think this up, but I’d love to see Walt wake up next to Lois from Malcolm in the Middle and start telling her about this crazy dream he had about being a meth cook in New Mexico…
Worst Breaking Bad ending ever:
Walt, Hank, Jesse, Skyler are put on trial for breaking the Good Samaritan Law and being a bad influence, and end up arguing in a jail cell together.
The escaped Russian from the Sopranos suddenly appears, mistakes Walt for Pauli, and kills him with a lethal Death Blow.
Pretty sure it’s just the exterior that gets filmed. I read that in 1 or 2 threads back. The interior is a sound stage.
Hank has tried playing both bad cop and worse cop (and to a degree this time good cop) with Jesse. The pity is if he’d throw a baseball with him and then take him out for ice cream Jesse would probably sing like Sammy Davis, Jr…
I was actually disappointed when Jesse didn’t get into the van because (if Hoover dust filter guy is legit) with a new identity he could be redeemed. Of the outlaws he’s about the only one of whom that’s true.

Now that I read that description, I wonder if it would also have been accurate for Hitler.
[/QUOTE]
I’m imagining Hitler climbing out of the bunker in designer heels and asking Goebbels to hold his hand and lead him past the dead soldiers and rubble.
Not complete unless the very last image is a freeze-frame of Hank, Gomie, Marie and Walt, Jr. laughing together.
Are you sure you didn’t mean to put this in the “Best Breaking Bad Endings” thread?
I can imagine the show ending with Walt sitting there, perhaps in an interrogation room at the DEA, denying that his name is Walter White and saying that he is Heisenberg. In other words, the persona entirely takes over and all of his humanity is lost.
Walt, sitting in a chair getting Chemo…the camera pans back to reveal an RV in a snow globe.
After Walt confesses everything to the increasingly skeptical Feds, he says, “Oh yeah. And the plane that crashed last year? That was me too.”
Feds decide he’s crazy and arrest Hank.
Unless Walt agrees to come back to get them back on track.
They may not need to use threats on Walt to get him to help. If Walt is in need of someone to go after Jesse, or just muscle in general (for Hank?/cartel?), he could trade his consulting services for their “extermination” services.
I don’t think Todd and the neo-Nazis knew where the lab was. Declan’s people had Lydia blindfolded on the way there, and they knew that she and Todd worked together, so if Todd knew where their operation was, they would expect Lydia to already know. It looked like Lydia had some sort of tracking device that allowed them to follow her there from a safe distance. Todd was probably cooking elsewhere, which they may have had to abandon due to the fire.
Walt confesses everything, then says “None of these stories are embellished because they need no embellishment. They are simply, horrifyingly, the true experiences of my life as a stocky, bald, slow-witted man in Albequerque.”
Sincerely,
Walter Vandelay.
Confessing is the only way Jesse is ever going to find out about Jane.
Last scene in doctor’s office. Doctor: “Boy, do I feel an idiot! I mixed up my charts! Walt, YOU don’t have cancer; it’s the late Walter BLACK who only had a few months to live. I’m really sorry and I hope my little gaffe didn’t cause any trouble.”
And the Facebook recap!
“**Hank Schrader **has invited Jesse Pinkman to join the group People Who Regret Ever Meeting Walter White.”
I think it will be brutal when the truth of the missing kid comes out. That might be the thing that changes the endgame for good.
Maybe the kid’s father will take Walter out. Sweet justice!
