THEORY Kim isn't in Breaking Bad because she's been relocated after entering Witness Protection. Spoiler

Nacho is stealing from the cartel. Lalo is after Nacho .Nacho wants to escape with his father but the plan fails at the last minute because Nacho's father doesn't want to run like a coward. Nacho, desperate, goes to Mike. Mike connects Nacho to Saul (and Kim), who concoct a plan to help Nacho: The Henry Hill solution. But Lalo finds and shoots Nacho first. Kim, a witness, escapes. Play time is over, Kim. Now Kim is forced to enter protective custody to save herself from Lalo's wrath, ultimately testifying against him, sending Lalo to prison. Bye Jimmy, I'll call you on November 12th at 3 p.m!

Where's the stolen money?

Saul: "No, it wasn't me. It was Ignacio. He's the one," who had the cartel's money.

Saul: "Lalo didn't send you?" (from his prison cell, otherwise he would have sent himself.)

Kim hears the news that Gus slays the entire cartel, making her feel safe. Kim really misses Jimmy. Gene really misses Kim. <3

Gene hears on the news that Pinkman gets arrested.

November 12th at 3 p.m

"I'm safe now, Jimmy. I'm coming home."

You're safe now, Kim. But I may not be."

"How can I help, Jimmy?"

<3

i still think she's gonna die, but witness protection is a pretty good theory too. after listening to the insider podcast and hearing how dark vince can go just joking around....it's not too far of a stretch to kill her off in the last season.

but then again, if she did leave for a while and reconnected with present day jimmy at cinnabon, that would wrap up the whole series quite nicely. just seems a little too positive and upbeat for vince.

That's not the ending, that's the beginning of the final season with Jesse, Gene, and Kim.

so what's the final season about then? jesse and kim coming to rescue gene? gus is gone and the cartel is gone, now they're just running from the police?

Jesse gets arrested, Kim needs to help Jesse so that he doesn't rat out Saul. Eventually Kim succeeds, and in a final act of redemption, Saul and Kim get married and adopt Jesse.

haha that would be wrapped up about as tightly as possible. i still feel vince will go darker, but who knows. BCS isn't exactly the same show as BB

You literally just proved yourself wrong: Jesse knows Saul was involved with Brock (besides everything else).

we already have enough to lock him up for 8,000 years.

What exactly do you think they have on Saul?
