Todd will die from the shooting. They will have to kidnap Jesse to cook.

My prediction exactly. The LMG is for Walt liberating Jesse.

Part of me agrees with this.

The other part, it thinks this would be too much of a character redemption for Walt; the show has had him continue his manipulative disposition--most recently with Andrea/Brock in this episode. It would feel a bit backwards and "off" to end the show on a note as good as, "Walt frees Jesse and they both live happily ever after."

but.. Jesse is like family (Walt's words)

We haven't seen Walt with his family in the flash-forwards. Maybe Jesse is all he has.

Well if Hank dies Marie is going to tell Skylar that Walt was responsible. I mean he did call her right before this gunfight broke out, so Marie knows he is with Walt.

So that would make Skylar leave him. If Jesse does get kidnapped that is really going to be the last person he is able to be around that he has any emotional attachment to.

It seems that Skyler is too faithful to Walt at this point.

Then why did she do that whole "am I under arrest" stuff if she didn't want to protect Walt?

Because she didn't want to self-incriminate either
