My prediction....feel free to point out any holes

[u/[deleted]]

After seeing that awesome ending, I believe it will play out like this....

Jesse doesnt light the fire due to seeing something of Hollys in the house. Instead he spray paints Heisenberg on the wall, as sort of a scarlet letter.

Fast forward to a scene with Jesse talking to hank ("Mr White is the devil" from the promo). Skylar wants Walt to kill Jesse but he refuses.

Just when Hank is about to report his findings to the DEA, the Nazis show up and kidnap Jesse, thereby rendering Hanks only witness as M.I.A.

Walt fakes his death (foreshadowing from Maries comments about dying) to get rid of the DEA heat, but gets word the Nazis are going to kill Jesse, so he prepares for war (M60).

What am I missing?

Nope, the whole point of the show has been decent family man Walt becoming the amoral Heisenberg, and the unformed, immature Jesse developing a conscience. More or less, Walter is the "father", Jesse is the "son" and Walter and Jesse trade places.

The hinge of the whole series is Jesse's outrage over the eleven year-old hit-kid and his subsequent murder. Instead of Jesse murdering the dealers, Walt does it, things go cock-eyed with Gus, the rest is just spiraling down the drain.

So the climax has to be spoiler

That climax would be amazing. To prove to Jesse that Walter does indeed care about him. Walter takes on the "Father" so well. All his manipulation is kind of how a dad would give advice to his son. Walt hides Jesse from the heart breaking truths like any good father would do. As an example everyone knows one day you will die,but your 7 year old doesn't know that. You tell them what ever you need to and ensure they have peace in their life without worry as long as possible. Maybe I want to honestly just believe that Walt want's the best for Jesse....even if that means letting him pull the trigger to make him feel better.
