you were asking how they knew so much about Jesse that he was part of the manhunt - you may remember at the end of BB when he gave the video deposition to Hank and Gomez and then Jack and his men ransacked Hank and Marie's house - it is likely that while police were going through the mess at Jack;s hideout, they could have come across the video that Jack and his men were watching when Jack wanted to go and kill Jesse but Todd convinced him to keep Jesse alive to keep cooking
At this point, I'd just like to see the guy in anything. A.P.'s incredible talent is being underutilized by the industry. "Todd" seems to be doing better lately, and that's criminal, imho.
To be fair, Walt wasn't "chilling with his family" the whole time Jesse was in captivity. Walt pretty much immediately went into hiding after Jack's gang took Jesse. The radio mentioned a six month manhunt for Walt, so that's how long Jesse was captive for.
@@MLennholm Jesse's captivity was neceessitated by Uncle Jack and company because they no longer had Walt cooking for them. Todd obviously wasn't up for the task himself.
@@joemckim1183 It's weird that lots of us have this vaguely protective response when Walt gets criticized. Walt did a lot of bad stuff, but he didn't have a particularly great time while Jesse was a captive.
if i were jesse i would have taken out todd at his house then went to warn andrea she has to take her son and run. it makes no sense that he would pass on that perfect opportunity only to later try to escape under far worse conditions.
25:30 it was not really making meth that made him feel special, it was the fact he was the best at something. Basically for 50 years walt was basically under value and basically had alot of wasted potential.
Like he said.. Everything was decided for him, he didn't feel like he had a choice. He walked away from Grey matter because of Gretchen, he sold his stake to them and walked away after the breakup due to pride and not being able to work with someone he was in love with. After that teaching was all he could really do, he had to work a carwash because at 50 he's having a baby he didn't think would happen and had to do what he had to do.. He's been on auto pilot for 20+ years.. I get it.. If i woke up tomorrow and found out I was the absolute best at something at 41 years old after thinking I had no talent and was nothing more than a dead-end, low pay low skill job.. I'd grasp it with both hands and ride it straight to hell.
Todd is so fascinating. He’s a psychopathic serial killer, but he genuinely doesn’t seem to realize he’s a monster. The truck scene is somehow both disturbing & hilarious. You gotta watch more films with this actor, like “Game Night” or “Antlors”
Watching Jesse go to Alaska in the end was really satisfying to me , i just cant express how much i love him cause he has got to be one the most sympathetic tv character’s of all time considering that how much hell he has gone through but despite that he alway’s kept his humanity unlike most of the other character’s in Breaking Bad , Jesse is not a saint of course but he’s not a demon either cause he does have good in him and now that he’s free from the drug world , now he can show the good that he has inside of him even more and spent the rest of his life being a better person.
The acting for these Series' (Breaking Bad, El Camino, Better Call Saul), is outstanding. The WRITING for these Series' is off the chart *EXCELLENT!* Their ability to tie and entwine so many characters, their plots, throughout all three is nothing short of a miracle! LOVE this single installment, and finally learning what happened with Jessie! :-)
Breaking Bad has always had that subtle neo-western style to it. A modern tale with bandits, anti heroes, gun-slingers and sheriffs. But this movie really brought out the western of it all. Jesse using everything Mike and Walt taught him, to get out of the bad situation, and ride into the sunset. What an ending to his story. Sure he had sins on his soul, but I think Jesse had the most positive transformation in the show, as he truly was the sincere heart of the cast. His ability to feel guilt, his torture, and his loyalty to others, all of those things made him a better person. So crazy to compare Season 1 episode 1 Jesse, to what he has become in El Camino. A tortured soul, who can appreciate just being alive and free. Also, there is a bunch of deleted material to this movie, some of it available. My favorite scene being the one where Ed the disappearer finds Jesse next to his shop in the morning, and Jesse has a hard time giving away his gun, bug Ed tells him that he does not need it anymore. Wish they kept it in, as it really showed how Jesse has a hard time believing that he can let go of the ugliness of the criminal world.
Believe it or not…this isn’t the furthest moment into the future. There are moments in Better Call Saul that happen later than this. The ride isn’t over!
I just wanted to say how brilliant it was to have Skinny Pete give Jesse his cap. Not only was it a powerful scene since Skinny had worn that piece as long as we remember, but it also serves to tag the present Jesse, so we always know when we're seeing him now and when we're seeing a flashback.
I used to work at a country club and one of my managers told me that him and Todd's actor are best friends. Provided proof and everything. Turns out he's not a psycho in real life!
4:07 - "All while Walt was chilling with his family and running the car wash and what not. He didn't know what Jesse was doing". I'm going to give you free advise: If you're not going to think before you speak, don't say anything at all. By the time Jesse was taken as a slave by Jack and Todd and the rest of the crew, Walt was trying to get back home to take Skyler and Junior/Flinn to be on the run with him after Marie confronted Skyler to tell Flinn the truth. This was when Walt went on the run hiding from the authorities. Do Not say "I'm such a dummy" like it's cute or an attractive quality, because it is not. Please do better and get the facts right.
Not gonna lie, I live in Albuquerque and the amount of cop cars that head to one crime scene every time is ridiculous. Straight up war zone here. -Sage
I love this movie for giving me closure on Jesse's story, right after I finished BrBa I had no idea it existed and couldn't stop thinking what happened to Jesse after
So what's the difference between a psychopath and a sociopath? Cause I was always under the impression that sociopath was the more accurate term for Todd's pathology.
Psychopathy (primary psychopathy) is characterized by low anxiety and thought to result from a genetic predisposition. Sociopathy (secondary psychopathy) is characterized by high anxiety and thought to develop in response to environmental adversity, such childhood trauma. In other words, psychopaths were born that way and tend to be calmer, whereas sociopaths were made that way and tend to be more aggressive. Psychopathy and Sociopathy are somewhat outdated terms. Today, the conditions are more properly referred to as primary and secondary psychopathy, or both can be referred to as Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD).
One of the best shootout/draws of all time in a movie. Jessy had a hammerless revolver in his pocket he was holding. The gun in his waistband was a misdirection. That's how he outdrew and outsmarted Vince.
They know about Jesse because of their connection, because of Hank, and hence, Marie, but also, Skyler has nothing left to protect.. ..or i dunno, maybe even just Pinkmans ID was at the scene.. or maybe its just a contrivance to ramp up the tension.. which, yeah, pretty much works..
One of the teaser trailers to El Camino was Skinny Pete being interrogated by two detectives; showing us what exactly went down after Pete was caught. There were also portraits of Hank Schrader and Steve Gomez somewhere in the background or the surrounding of the room if I remember correctly.
The reason the cops sent that many officers is that when a high-risk potentially dangerous suspect is being apprehended, they know that if the suspect is likely facing long prison time, they might try to shoot it out. The absurdity large number of officers serve two purposes: 1 ensure their own victory in a gun fight if there is one and 2 be so great a number that the suspect gives up on even trying to fight because there would be no way to win.
I don't think that it would have occurred to Todd to do that. It seems like R-ing someone requires hate or anger on some level. Todd seemed lacking in any form of emotion.
I mean... Todd was weird, but I never really got that vibe from him. However, had they added that in the show, I probably wouldn't have questioned it unfortunately. Because Todd was so fcking weird.
Walt wasn't chilling with his family remember when Jesse got taken he went home after Hank was killed and his family rejected him and he left and went into hiding he was all alone for those months doing his chemo and figuring out how to get his money to his family and killing jack and his gang then when he got there he rescued Jesse and killed the gang and Lydia
I don't know if you remember, but on your reaction to the finale for Breaking Bad I left a comment recommended the video of Bryan Cranston celebrating his super sweet 60th birthday. Did you give it a watch?
It's been almost 5 years since Robert Forster passed away when "El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie" was released. He was great in BB, BCS and "El Camino", but his Oscar-nominated performance in "Jackie Brown" redefined his acting career. RIP, good sir. You will be missed.🙏🏻
I don't think it was the meth that Walt really focused on when he was mentioning "something special". I think it was his quality of meth and how it was received in the community. It out performed literally every option on the market. It was the best. Something he lost the chance to be when he was bitter and ran away from the Grey Matter company before that company became renowned in the scientific community because of the work that Walter helped found. Walt in his early life had that chance and missed it. Jesse, who absorbed his teachings and could practically match the quality of Walt's meth achieved that "best" status as well as far as Walt was concerned I think and Jesse achieved it when Walt thinks he should have.
It has been a wonderful ride, going back and watching your reactions to the entire Breaking Bad story. The entire Breaking Bad story - from Walter's journey and metamorphosis into Heisenberg to Jesse's redemption arc to Mike's tragic end to....well you'll see what ultimately happens with Saul - may be one of the greatest to have ever been told in the history of television. It is truly a work of art and I feel honored to have had witnessed it, as I'm sure you do as well V. I think if I were ever in a position where I had to start a new life somewhere, I'd probably choose upstate New York. It's quiet, it's peaceful from what I've read, and it's not that far from the city. Looking forward to seeing your reaction to the second half of this wonderful journey.
"Who needs paint on your walls when you can just have thousands of photos of your obsession?" Me, glancing around at the thousands of photos I have of V on my walls like 😐😅
Todd was definitely a sociopath but it's not really his fault. Uncle Jack and his crew most likely raised him like this since he was little, he doesn't see anything wrong with what he does
This was ultimately the final role of Robert Forster, who played Ed the Disappearer. He unfortunately passed away the exact day El Camino was released. Also, I love that part where he calls the cops and the car just pulls up in the background while Jesse's trying to call him out for faking it 😂 but he still gives Jesse a chance to get the rest of the money by lying to the police
Keep in mind, the night before Jesse escapes is when Walt visited Elliot and Gretchen. Remember what Skinny Pete and Badger did that night, and this movie starts immediately after that. That's where Pete had all the money from.
the opening scene with Mike is a "missing scene" from Breaking bad 5x06. right after Jesse who is still broken up about the kid on the dirt bike and sees Walt joyfully whistle to himself, he receives a phone call. then in the episode we see Jesse & Mike telling Walt they are out of the business. and here we see them both preparing to tell him.
Better call Saul is the perfect prequel for BB fans. Its starts slow but rewards you with so much backstory you never knew you needed for the Breaking Bad universe.
12:18 a very sad scene, definitely all about the trauma and enslavement. It’s true there are practical reasons for Brock’s sake to surrender, but I think this is more about the trauma and confusion. In terms of practicality: Todd clearly knew he had time to do all this without Jack finding out, so Jesse could probably kill Todd and go take Brock somewhere safe? On the other hand Jesse doesn’t know where exactly where they are right here.
What’s crazy is that Jesse’s arc on Breaking Bad and El Camino actually end exactly the same, with him driving off. It’s just that El Camino is a little more hopeful.
24:20 I honestly never understand why people care for Walter so much, he turned into such a heartless psycho. His deeds towards the end saving Jesse doesn't come close to redemption at all. He's such a horrible person and I don't understand why people look past that.
I mean when it comes to main characters its these 2 guys getting the spotlight and everyone follows that spotlight and attaches to it throughout and at this scenario you gotta root for the villains to accoplish plus they are a very likable duo unless your not into that type of personalities, in other cases everyone just loves a good actor like bryan cranston and aaron paul, and afterall this indeed could happen in the real world but the series is nothing but a scripted story and fiction so its no surprise everyone cares for main characters because their the characters to follow and know more along the way its not like this entire series wasn't phsycotic from the start.
To answer your question about how they knew about Jesse is because those guys Jack and Todd had those recordings of Jesse talking about all of the stuff they did while working as a crew. Also it took me way longer to recognize Todd than it should have in this movie because he gained enough weight between the show and this movie that his face just looked so round compared to when he was on the show
So the guy who plays Ed (the vaccumn store owner who helps people get new identities) is the late Robert Forster, he actually passed away pretty much right after he finished filming his scenes in this movie.
The reason there’s a manhunt for Jesse like we see in the film is due to Hank and Gomez are dead. When federal officers are killed trying to take down a kingpin like Walt, the police are going in big on someone. Because Walt is now dead and he was looked at as the one who killed them both, they’re going after whoever was associated with Walt, which would be Jesse and Saul, while Jesse would have his fingerprints on various items at Jack’s compound, such as on the gun Walt slid to Jesse. Since Jesse had been arrested before, they’d have his fingerprints. Plus, they might have the tape that Jack and his crew stole from Hank and Marie’s, which would also indicate Jesse was there aside from fingerprints.
The money Skinny Pete and Badger handed over was the remainder of what they had left for doing the laser pointer thing for Walt. Walt saw them maybe 2 or 3 days before this, and they see Jesse the night Walt dies. Walt's money went to his family. Jesse was family.
I just want to point out again as I'm getting a lot of comments that YES, I am watching Better Call Saul!
I have already started it on Patreon! :)
I think you will definitely appreciate it just as much as BB!!
This was a nice closure for BB/Jesse :)

A detail that sometimes goes unnoticed: the money Badger and Skinny Pete give Jessie comes from Walt’s best hit men west of the Mississippi.

It is truly a work of art and I feel honored to have had witnessed it, as I'm sure you do as well V. I think if I were ever in a position where I had to start a new life somewhere, I'd probably choose upstate New York. It's quiet, it's peaceful from what I've read, and it's not that far from the city. Looking forward to seeing your reaction to the second half of this wonderful journey.
It was such a nostalgic moment when this first came out and we saw all the characters we grew to love so many years ago
18:22 Honor among thieves. Ed reminds Jesse to take his money, then gives the cops a wildly inaccurate description of their suspect
"Who needs paint on your walls when you can just have thousands of photos of your obsession?"
Me, glancing around at the thousands of photos I have of V on my walls like 😐😅
Todd was definitely a sociopath but it's not really his fault.
Uncle Jack and his crew most likely raised him like this since he was little, he doesn't see anything wrong with what he does
"Jesse is a trooper i dont know how he does it..." two letters speak ALL in this universe sweetheart
This was ultimately the final role of Robert Forster, who played Ed the Disappearer. He unfortunately passed away the exact day El Camino was released. Also, I love that part where he calls the cops and the car just pulls up in the background while Jesse's trying to call him out for faking it 😂 but he still gives Jesse a chance to get the rest of the money by lying to the police
“This man only ingests soups!” Idk why that made me laugh
Keep in mind, the night before Jesse escapes is when Walt visited Elliot and Gretchen. Remember what Skinny Pete and Badger did that night, and this movie starts immediately after that. That's where Pete had all the money from.
This movie is just sweet. It's really a little love letter to fans.
Hey VKunia girl.
Remember, Jimmy McGill is the main character of this universe.
No one, i mean NO ONE else.
the opening scene with Mike is a "missing scene" from Breaking bad 5x06. right after Jesse who is still broken up about the kid on the dirt bike and sees Walt joyfully whistle to himself, he receives a phone call. then in the episode we see Jesse & Mike telling Walt they are out of the business. and here we see them both preparing to tell him.
Skinny Pete is the realest buddy a person could have.
Better call Saul is the perfect prequel for BB fans. Its starts slow but rewards you with so much backstory you never knew you needed for the Breaking Bad universe.
21:41 lol
12:18 a very sad scene, definitely all about the trauma and enslavement. It’s true there are practical reasons for Brock’s sake to surrender, but I think this is more about the trauma and confusion.
In terms of practicality: Todd clearly knew he had time to do all this without Jack finding out, so Jesse could probably kill Todd and go take Brock somewhere safe?
On the other hand Jesse doesn’t know where exactly where they are right here.
What’s crazy is that Jesse’s arc on Breaking Bad and El Camino actually end exactly the same, with him driving off. It’s just that El Camino is a little more hopeful.
Skinny Pete was a real one.
Everyone needs a friend like Skinny Pete.
Jesse was one of tv history's most broken characters and he did it so well
24:20 I honestly never understand why people care for Walter so much, he turned into such a heartless psycho. His deeds towards the end saving Jesse doesn't come close to redemption at all. He's such a horrible person and I don't understand why people look past that.
I mean when it comes to main characters its these 2 guys getting the spotlight and everyone follows that spotlight and attaches to it throughout and at this scenario you gotta root for the villains to accoplish plus they are a very likable duo unless your not into that type of personalities, in other cases everyone just loves a good actor like bryan cranston and aaron paul, and afterall this indeed could happen in the real world but the series is nothing but a scripted story and fiction so its no surprise everyone cares for main characters because their the characters to follow and know more along the way its not like this entire series wasn't phsycotic from the start.
To answer your question about how they knew about Jesse is because those guys Jack and Todd had those recordings of Jesse talking about all of the stuff they did while working as a crew. Also it took me way longer to recognize Todd than it should have in this movie because he gained enough weight between the show and this movie that his face just looked so round compared to when he was on the show
Nahh, this is not the end of Breaking Bad. The End of Better Call Saul is the end of Breaking Bad.
So the guy who plays Ed (the vaccumn store owner who helps people get new identities) is the late Robert Forster, he actually passed away pretty much right after he finished filming his scenes in this movie.
Actually he passed away a few weeks after the movie came out

You're lucky to be able to binge all that immediately, the wait for more EPs and the movie was excruciating to me at the time!
The reason there’s a manhunt for Jesse like we see in the film is due to Hank and Gomez are dead. When federal officers are killed trying to take down a kingpin like Walt, the police are going in big on someone. Because Walt is now dead and he was looked at as the one who killed them both, they’re going after whoever was associated with Walt, which would be Jesse and Saul, while Jesse would have his fingerprints on various items at Jack’s compound, such as on the gun Walt slid to Jesse. Since Jesse had been arrested before, they’d have his fingerprints. Plus, they might have the tape that Jack and his crew stole from Hank and Marie’s, which would also indicate Jesse was there aside from fingerprints.
Thank you for the BB adventure! I have been watching since episode 1. Love it!
the Jane part and the after credit with Skinny P was incredible clearly the best friend to have ever
Thanks again V for reacting to this fine series, pretty sure the best series ever produced.
Laying at night thinking about Breaking Bad gotta be the biggest compliment to the show ever
the greatest thing about this movie is that it is true to the series, and it does make sense, i loved this when it came out
Skinny Pete and Badger are such good friends to Jesse. I like to imagine they got off drugs and got their lives together.
The money Skinny Pete and Badger handed over was the remainder of what they had left for doing the laser pointer thing for Walt. Walt saw them maybe 2 or 3 days before this, and they see Jesse the night Walt dies. Walt's money went to his family. Jesse was family.
