Beats them to death with his crutches

Yeah the above theory is ridiculous.

A lot of people have been speculating about Jr dying in a car crash for a long time, but personally I think a far more interesting angle would be if Jr got into a car wreck and killed someone else by accident - we haven't really seen him 'Break Bad' yet, at least not like all the other main characters, and I think this could be an interesting way of adding an extra layer to the family dynamic by examining whether Jr has the stones to come clean when he does something seriously wrong.

The only question mark over an angle like that for me is whether they have enough time to pull it off in eight episodes, but I certainly think if they did it in a scenario where everything happened in a short space of time chronologically, it could work. There certainly has to be some significance to Jr's fascination with cars, though, and likewise Hank's fascination with minerals (i.e. rocks) - I can certainly envision a scenario where Hank gets beaten to death with a rock during a fight with Walt out in the desert somewhere.

Flynn will meet Badger and Skinny Pete and smoke the blue stuff with them, after which he gets hooked and/or dies, IMO.

No sir, it's not remotely plausible. When Jesse said, "Tell the doctors to consider ricin," the doctors thought it looked EXACTLY like ricin...and called the cops on Jesse. The cops told Jesse in the interview room, "The doctors think you're right."

I LOL'd, but it was tempered--you forgot to misspell Squillah.

The only thing we know for sure will happen to Flynn in season 5b is that he will

Confirmed

As much as this isn't a particularly important debate and I don't wanna seem like a pedantic *******, the only thing that's ever said about it is "they're beginning to think you just might be right" (cops to Jesse). We never get any evidence beyond that, and I would imagine a large part of why the cops were called on Jesse is that he literally ran through the hospital screaming about it.

Again, I'm not saying it would be realistic from a real-life standpoint, I'm just saying that if the show went with a storyline where Walt took the ricin himself, I think the majority of the show's audience would buy it, given what the show has explained so far about the effects of ricin.

Buuuuut, you're YTF, king of weight loss, so I am inclined to defer to you when it comes to what stuff will kill you and what stuff won't.

Lol at Hank dying from rocks because he had a mineral collection...

I think your junior/car crash theory is at least semi plausible...

Junior is no doubt effected by Walt's increased risk taking and lack of morals, i think showing Junior "break bad" and walt's horrified reaction when he realizes that he was a large cause of it could likely be a part of the last 8 eps...

YOU'RE SUCH A HYPOCRITE, DAD. *does bump of blue*

Skyler seduces Jesse. Flynn dies.

I want as many people to die as possible. No preference.

Ok, I lied. Please kill Skyler and Flynn.

I don't think any of those are a lock. The most likely is him finding out Walt shot Mike.

God damn.

I don't think we can assume Walt's cancer has come back from him taking pills in the opening of season 5a. The way he takes them so fast after the interaction seems to indicate they are an anxiety drug or downer or some sort.

I like the Skyler/risin cig theory after she caves into pressure from Hank/Marie? to give more info. She being the dumb bitch that she is tells Walt of her plans, and since she is stressed and has already returned to smoking, it makes for an easy plant.

I think Jesse relapses, maybe as a result of Walt telling him that Hank knows (Hank isn't going to act fast on this given it's going to tear their family apart...he's going to rest on his laurels a bit). Walt is going to sense that Hank has figured it out before Hank flat out tells him/arrests him. This may be after Jesse relapses. Jesse works out some plan to kill Walt but ODs before he can carry it out. I don't think Walt kills Jesse ever because that's the most obvious scenario ever.

Do we know where Walt is in the season 5a opener? There are no mountains in the background when he's outside, and there are non desert climate looking trees in the background, and although I'd assume NM is about 30 hours from NH, maybe he ran away and is on his way back to finish some people off/go down in a blaze of glory?

Part of me thinks Walt will kill everyone, The Departed style, and be the last man standing, only to walk into an unassuming situation with the last character you'd expect (Walt, Jr., the Matt Damon looking new crew member/Marie?), who shoots him in the last scene. Maybe the guy we theorize is the mole inside the DEA?

I'm probably not right, but it's fun to guess. Rewatching seasons 4 and 5 this weekend to get amped. I already rewatched 1 but I don't think I can do 2-5 in 72 hours with a job and all that.

Also how many heads will explode if the opener to season 5b is Walt forming his bacon to a 53?

Fyi, a video was shown at the Comic Con with the first scene of season 5b. There's a synopsis ITT somewhere.

so pumped, had to update the avi

predictions on who dies:

hank via suicide or walt. leaning suicide

marie via skylar

todd via jesse

jesse via walt

walt via ricin (by way of jesse)

Breaking Bad: The Middle School Musical

So ready for the final 8 episodes. The week to week wait is going to be torture after being spoiled by being able to binge watch old seasons.

since season 4 I've always debated attempting to hold off for a couple weeks so I can binge watch a few episodes at a time but I obviously never manage.

That is not something I would recommend to anyone. Even waiting until Monday is probably not the best idea.

I could do it for quite a few shows, but not this one. And especially not now that it's all over the freaking place. I'm turning off my phone, putting my computer to sleep and locking the doors and windows. NOTHING will ruin this for me!!!! NOTHING!!!!

It looks like they'll go without any traditional teasers/previews. That is such a boss move.
