    If they simply replace everything purple in her house with something in a different color I also wouldn't have any problem.

    At the very end, I want it to be Walt and Jesse cooking again. Jesse has pretty much just lost his marbles and complies to whatever Walt wants. Walt is just worried about the purity of the product and is basically unchanged by whatever went down except he just wants to be back on top with his "empire". Then, during the cook, a door opens but all we see is a bright light and then the picture fades to black. The closing song that plays will be "Empire" by Queensryche. lol

    I love/hate the way Hank was killed. I thought for sure he was going to be riddled with bullets, obviously dead. The fact he was only shot in the leg, still hope that he would survive, I thought, this guy can't die, he's been through so much crap so it makes sense that he survives. Then to have him get shot point blank was just disturbing and in this day and age when people getting shot in the head just really aren't that big a deal, it's pretty remarkable. This past episode was the best episode of any TV show I've ever seen.

    I meant, people getting shot in the head in movies and in TV shows. Not real life, if someone were to get shot in the head in front of me I would freak.

    True, this show is hard to predict. Was the end of the show changed because cranstons script was stolen. If this is different I'm wondering h

    I was wondering if we will ever get to see an alternate ending. This show could have gone so many ways

    Holy F***! I didn't even think about that. It did seem odd that he would speak to Skylar like that. I thought Hank getting killed was what triggered it but it really makes so much more sense that he knew she had the cops and everything was being recorded. He didnt just completely lose his mind. He is still trying to protect his family even if it makes him look like the devil... bravo, bravo.

    Saw the episode and had to watch it a second time since it was so epic.

    I have the same qualms about how these final two episodes will be structured but like someone else had said, I have faith that Gilligan has the narrative laid out nicely.

    Sucks to see Hank and Gomie die but again him staying alive via Walter White's magical negotiations would've been all too predictable. It'll definitely be riveting to see how it all plays out and I don't even want to play the prediction game since the creative dept has hit us with curveball after curveball, we shouldn't even bother.

    Just sit back and anticipate TV gold!

    Yes, the DVD collection will have an alternate ending. I'll see if I can find the exact information on that.

    Admittedly, $225 is a lot to spend, but for what you get- and if you're going to spend this on any show, this would be it- it's worth it:

    Among the many features on the discs is a three-minute alternate ending to the series and the making to the alternate ending.

    The complete series will come in a collectible barrel representative of Walter White's meth legacy.

    All together, there are more than 55 hours of special features on the discs.

    Gag reel (The group's gag reels are priceless.)

    Dig deep. The complete series will go on sale November 26 for $299.

    Below are the rest of the features from the release:

    $300? Damn. If I had to spend that much on one show it would be this one.

    One thing the pro-Walter White side of me wants to believe is that Hank was dead anyway. Certainly not with Walt involved had he never got involved in the meth empire, but likely as part of some drug bust gone wrong somewhere.

    Not that you hear a ton of stories of cops dying in drug busts these days in real life, but in the show, Hank is seemingly always not too far off from getting seriously injured somehow. If you then consider all the other baddies on the scene in the show, Hank was a goner. Absent Walt, Hank likely still eventually figures out Gus, for example, and that would kill him.

    So while clearly what Walt has done is wrong on the whole, as Walt is lying on his deathbed (or whatever), his thought process could validly be: (i) I got out of the game when I could, (ii) Pinkman's the one who f'd everything up, (iii) I warned Hank to leave it be and let me die, (iv) I told the Nazi's not to come as soon as I figured out what was happening, etc. It is at least true, in the framework of Walt getting to the point he had already gotten to, that he tried his best to continue to "protect" his family.

    I cant help but keep comparing walt to most criminals out there. We all think they are bad people but they obviously are doing what they are doing because of similar causes and motives like walts. Does that maybe justify it in the slightest for these people?

    As far as things not being blown out of proportion, he could have simply lied to skylar and flynn and said hank is fine and they would have fled to new lives. But i think he has torn the family apart so much that, that wouldn't have mattered anyways. We all hate on the family for not listening to walt and consistently bickering and being in his way but realistically thats how any normal family would react, especially since his family had such normal simple lives.

    Agreed, if Hank had survived I don't think I would've loved the episode as much. Killing Hank was the only way the show could move on.

    I was kind of wondering that. Seemed like it wouldn't be so exact.
