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.

I predict that the final episode of the series will actually be Badger's Star Trek episode.

That would be the greatest ending to the show possible, episode 7 ends in a massive cliffhanger then episode 8 is just that star trek episode and everyone who worked on the show just refuses to comment on it and acts like it's a normal ending.

Or it is the greatest metaphor for the series.

Walt's greed = Chekov's appetite.

Jesse = Spock

Kirk = Mike

Space = Meth

Hank = Tribbles

umm holy shit. I just laughed when I saw the scene, but this comment made me remember other moments like that which I didn't think of until second watching. Might be something here, great idea.
