26) The Nazis fail to produce drugs of Jesse and Walt quality, so their international distributor Lydia (Laura Fraser) has been freaking out. Which is very bad news for Jesse: After they let Walt go, they literally cage Jesse up for months and force him to make Heisenberg-level meth.
Jesse decided to track down the hostile blacksmith to get more money and then once again try to convince Ed to help him skip town. The second confrontation with the blacksmith ended with a shoot-out in which Jesse killed him as well as all of his cronies and then took all of the money, because why not?
Jesse and his 'Camino' to Better Call Saul
Seven years later, fans can finally rest in peace as the final answers are revealed to what happened to Jesse Pinkman after Walter's death. The only thing the fans knew was that he survived the compound stage and made it to Alaska as a free man.
It's been six years since Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) escaped from the cage he was kept in by Todd (Jesse Plemons) and Jack (Michael Bowen) on Breaking Bad, but Netflix's sequel film, El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie, picks up mere seconds after the show's iconic finale.
The series ended with White dying from a gunshot wound after using a remote-controlled machine gun to kill an Aryan Brotherhood gang and free Pinkman, who had been held captive for six months.
Aside from seeing death around every corner, we have to remember that Jesse was abjured by his parents, and he still has PTSD from shooting Gale.
Like Bryan Cranston's Walter White and Jonathan Banks' Mike Ehrmantraut, Todd is brought back from the dead via flashbacks by Breaking Bad creator and El Camino writer-director Vince Gilligan.
In El Camino, Pinkman crosses paths with Neil, an employee of the welding company. Pinkman's at the house of now-deceased Todd Alquist, digging around for a stash of money that Todd Alquist had stolen before he died. Pinkman knew Todd had the money. But as he soon finds out, Neil, is also after Todd's thousands.
Jesse spent roughly six months as their slave, bound in ankle-and-hand-cuffs while meth-making in the warehouse and sleeping in a concrete cellar at night.
The finale did give Jesse a happy ending of sorts when Walt, finally showing something like remorse for what he'd done to his former student, set him free.
Is Walter White definitely dead in El Camino? Let's get this out of the way: Walter White is dead, dead, dead.
Hank Schrader: Dead
Every moment of the episode "Ozymandias" is indelibly lodged in the brain of every Breaking Bad fan alive, so there's really no ambiguity here. RIP, Hank.
Ed provides Jesse with a new identity with the surname "Driscoll" and smuggles him to Haines, Alaska. Jesse hands Ed a letter for Brock and says there is no one else he wants to say goodbye to. As Jesse drives off, he has a flashback to his time with Jane.
After being forced to leave his parents' residence, presumably because of his continued drug use with the final straw being when he took the blame for the pot his parents found in the house to protect his little brother Jake, Jesse moved in with his aunt Ginny, whom he took care of until her death from lung cancer.
The reason for Jesse being locked up is, in effect, thanks to Walter White. After Walt's identity as the drug kingpin Heisenberg is finally discovered by mineral-collecting brother in law Hank, Walt does everything he can to make sure he's not tracked down by the police.
The audience never learns the contents of Jesse's letter to Brock, though it's implied that it's an attempt at explaining/apologizing/making amends for all the evil that Jesse unwillingly brought into Brock's life.
Thanks to a strange appearance by Badger and Skinny Pete, Walt learns that Jesse is alive - he's cooking the blue meth. But he learns that everyone thinks HE was cooking it. He learns that no one has seen Jesse since Hank's death.
Coming to terms with his impending death, Walt tied up loose ends before ambushing Jack's compound. He was mortally wounded in the process, but the event allowed Jesse to break free. Seeing as El Camino picked up moments after Breaking Bad's final episode, Jesse was still 25.
After "rescuing" Walter by killing Hank Schrader in a desert, Jack betrays Walt, steals most of Walt's remaining drug money and kidnaps Jesse as a cook slave.
Type of Villain
Mr. White- Todd's last words before he is strangled to death by Jesse Pinkman. Todd Alquist is a major antagonist in Breaking Bad, serving as the secondary antagonist of Season 5 and a posthumous antagonist in its 2019 sequel film El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.
And, just before the film's close, El Camino delved back in time for the return of the show's central character: Walter White, the chemistry-teacher-turned-drugs-baron portrayed by Bryan Cranston. However, the man we saw in flashback is far from the one portrayed in the Breaking Bad finale.
'El Camino' Had a Sadder Alternate Ending for Jesse, According to Vince Gilligan. It's good Gilligan went with the ending he did because this original one? Hard pass.
Indeed, Todd looks different in El Camino because several years have passed since Breaking Bad. At the time of filming Breaking Bad's final episode, "Felina," Plemons was 24, but he was 30 by the time he filmed El Camino — and was clearly older and heavier than he was in the series.
The series ended with White dying from a gunshot wound after using a remote-controlled machine gun to kill an Aryan Brotherhood gang and free Pinkman, who had been held captive for six months.
The campaign saw the return of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul character Huell Babineaux, with Lavell Crawford reprising the role.
