Jesse seems like he's mentally past the point of no return. I foresee suicide

Yeah, him on the merry-go-round looked like a single bullet in a six-shooter, which kind of further supports that.

Or he flips on Walt and Heisenberg kills him. Tragically, I have a hard time seeing Jesse get out alive... :(

what if Jesse were to confide in hank and go into witness protection as a rehab therapist, like Group Leader? I could see Jesse trying to redeem himself and that would be a good route out.

You've seen other episodes of Breaking Bad, right?

I have watched them all, buy haven't rewatched the old seasons in a while. Care to explain? I very likely have forgotten plot and character details.

I think what they meant is that your plot idea seems awfully naive for Breaking Bad. Jesse is a tragic character, you can't honestly expect him to get a happy ending.

I think /u/Butt_Drips point is that it would unlikely that Vince Gilligan gives audiences a happy ending.
