I doubt they will, although in order to wrap it up, you would suspect the majority of time remaining will be spent in the present, rather than the past.

Who knows.

Interesting that they've now jumped ahead in time. Or present day, whichever way you look at it I guess. I wonder if we're seeing the beginning of the end of Saul as well now. I reckon something happens to his post-BB character. Arrested? killed?

As you say, it seems odd for the writers, considering how thought provoking they are with their story-telling, would spend one of the entire final episodes showing Saul up to his old tricks just for the sake of killing an hour.

There's a(nother) demise somewhere on the horizon, I think.

I was hoping for a cameo from at least one of Jesse or Walt. I doubt it'll come, although I've just seen they've teased the next episode title; 'Breaking Bad'

In a way, I’d like to see him die in the last episode. A culmination of all his scams, trickery and finally running out of lives.

I think a happy ending and walking off into the sunset would betray a lot of what the show has been about imo. Maybe that’s where they were going with the previous episode, I doubt that was simply filler for the sake of it.

Filler? There was the first ever mention, in 6 seasons, of Walter White.....hugely significant
I really enjoyed it... the calm before the storm, the sing-song on the Orca, before the shark attack.
The next one has to be dynamite.

You have been warned in the Thread Title to be fair, Proph.

Superb episode, the part where Kim got abducted by aliens was truly shocking though, did not see that coming..

I've seen it now - the no spoilers request was put there when I was still at work and you two had watched it during schooltime :no-no:

I honestly do not know what to make of it, all told.

Some of it wound me up a bit...

Jesse and Walt...found that sequence a little laboured, to be honest.

As per E10, E11 appears to have divided opinion once again but the entire episode was a feast for the eyes... the drone crossroads shot, the grave fade, the segue between Gene/Saul exiting his car in that final scene...

So: Jimmy/Saul/Gene/Victor to be shot during a burglary, grassed up by Marion to the Feds - or reunited with Kim? Having seen the obvious neatly avoided all the way through BB and BCS, I dare say it'll conclude with none of the above.

Only two left to go now - (E12) Waterworks and (E13) Saul Gone.

All of the other confidence tricks involved very carefully getting into a premises and stealing information without the knowledge of the sleeping occupant. I am unable to understand why Gene goes as far as to break the window of the sleeping victim who told him he had cancer.

I am also struggling a bit with the last two episodes. As UTJ notes, they are brilliantly made, but they just don't seem to easily 'fit' with the rest of the series.

Two more episodes...
