final blog

Since this is my final blog I am going to talk about the finales. I am going to talk specifically the finale of my favorite show, Breaking Bad. The Breaking Bad finale made so much sense and gave so much closure to the show. In the end Walter White freed Jesse Pinkman, his partner, from a group of aspiring meth cooks that were holding him hostage making him cook meth for them. Walt rigged a machine gun in his trunk triggered by his car clicker to aid in the escape and killed the group. At the last minute Walt chose to save Jesse by allowing Jesse to attack him to the group and he initiated the machine gun while they were on the ground sparing their lives. Jesse then was shown to release all his anger and hurt by killing Todd, who was responsible for Jesse being held hostage. Jesse had an opportunity to kill Walk himself but then walked away and told Walt to “do it yourself.” As they were walking out the house a call came in from Lydia who was also responsible for some wrong doing with Jesse and Walt. Walt told Lydia that he poisoned her with ricin. This statement let Jesse know he was free from everything.  Jesse drove away and was left to make a new life for himself, which was something he deserved. It showed Jesse driving away with pure emotion. He was laughing and crying at the same time. He was finally free. It then cut back to Walt who was shown to have been shot in the stomach. He went into the meth lab, walked slowly around, touching the equipment, and appeared to feel satisfied with the journey he had made. He falls to the ground and the police come in and it is assumed he is already dead. It shoots the scene from a sky view pulling further away from the scene. I’m glad Walt wasn’t killed by the police or anyone else. His death was peaceful and calm. I was sad the show ended but I am happy it ended that way because it gave so much closure and made sense.
