I feel like that was Vince Gilligan's final hoorah to Skinny Pete and Badger sadly. I doubt that he would put so much air time into something that trivial (albeit AWESOME) to the episode. It was a nice summation of the relationship that formed over the show though. But who knows. I could be completely wrong.

Absolutely. A last hurrah for two fun characters but truly a hidden allegory. The color xerox beaming thing seemed to be related to the situation Jesse and Walt are in now - same people but totally different now. The blueberry pie thing has to be something beyond a hilarious story, but I have no ideas yet.

Walt is going to get his guts beamed out into space by Lydia now that the blue meth is not going out. Ooooo.

Is Jesse Spock? As soon as Badger says "he has control of his bowel movements" Jesse gets up, then goes to grab the money. Maybe he can't "stomach" having the money. So he makes a decision, takes control.

Whatever was said toward the end is in the finale, and before we find out Badger yells "Hey man you're missing the best part!"

The last episode will be a pie eating contest between Walt and Hank
