2. Based only on numbers... (speculation, possibly spoilery)

it's a foregone conclusion that at-least 2/3 of Jesse, Gomez, Hank ain't making it. Probably all three. Some portion of Todd's Uncle's crew will be going with them though, probably including a named character...I'm guessing Todd, as that would complicate things immensely.

Walt's done...there's enough evidence out there that he cannot wriggle out of this one even if he escapes. He handed it all to them. Huell's flip after being faked-out makes it impossible for him to return to Saul or Walt so at this point he has no choice but to testify against them.

The writing of the last 1/3 of that episode was bad...I saw the ending coming 20 minutes out: "why are you lollygagging about?! Get him in the truck and get Walt and Jesse the fuck out of there.", "Isn't this the point where even if you wanted to keep an investigation on the down-low you should have brought in the cavalry for the take-down expecting complications?" For a pair of top DEA agents, Hank and Gomez are a pair of goddamned morons who amaze me they've survived into middle-age.

Jesse has the good sense at least to be preparing to make a run for it.

I always go think back to the Live Free Or Die episode when Walt has hair but is obviously still sick as he is taking meds and meets the guy in the diner that gives him a new car.

I don't think Jesse will make it.

Highly doubt that both will so I bet on Walt.

12. I'm betting Hank will pull Walt out of the SUV to plead for a cease fire

Hank agrees to let Walt go (perhaps without his money) in exchange for safe passage, and Walt gets a new identity and starts to cook again.

this was Hank's last episode, imho.

Walt gets away, of course. Probably Jessie too. That may be who Walt is coming back after with his ricin.

edit: no, wait. Maybe after Todd takes a bullet, Lydia tries to get Walt back into the lab and she is who the ricin is for?

Just when you thin you know what's going to happen, the exact opposite takes place. Jessie himself said so to Hank recently.

7. Gomez, and Hank are toast, Pinkman might run off and live another day.. Maybe.

Just watched the last episode on DVR.

The evidence on Walt dies with Hank and Gomez. Killing Hank will drive a wedge between Skyler and Walt, but I don't think she will turn on Walt if it harms her family.

The best foreseeable use of the ricin is for the aryan cook crew, who don't really appreciate how much Walt despises loose cannons/ends.

Either way I can't wait to get back home and watch next weeks episode on DVR.

8. I've read several reviews and quite a few have said Sunday's episode was one of the best in BB...

history and I agree. I'm thinking Hank and Gomez are both dead. We know Walt lives because of the flash forward (which is
proving to be an incredibly brilliant device). I think the Ricin is going to be for Uncle Jack and crew. It's so cool to go to work the day after BB and have such interesting and just plain old fun conversations with my co-workers about the show. God I just can't believe there are only three left. It's one of the best written shows in T.V history.

Walt was coming back to save hank, but that obviously isn't going to work out. So maybe hank is forced back into cooking. Lol, that was a great episode and has to be one of the best in TV history.

One spinoff is already a go and it wouldn't surprise me if there are more spinoffs or movies in the works.

when the picture was sent of the barrels I was like "oh shit, bad shit's about to come down".

I still think Walt Jr is going to get bitten somehow. The Walter White family cannot go unscathed, and I think Jr's gonna end up on the business end of a one way trip to Belize.

I knew when walt got off the phone that the Calvary was still on the way.

I agree that the "i love you" is a bye-bye for old H-dog.

You could see Jes squirming in the dirt in one of the last scenes.

H-dog and Gome go bye-bye

Walt & Jesse....well we know Walt lives to see his 52nd

Who is the ricin for? Jesse? Aryan gang? Bryce?
