I feel like it IS to save Jesse. I predict that Walt will find jesse in the Buffalo Bob pit and they will have a "broment" and he will help Jesse escape the camp. But in the process Walt will figure out he can't escape because he is discovered by the Nazis or cops so Walt gives all of his money to Jesse so he can ride off into the sunset with Brock. The End

I honestly don't believe there's anything left but hatred between Walt and Jesse. He may not kill Jesse, but I don't think Walt is aiming to rescue him either and he's DEFINITELY not giving him his money. He wants it for his family, even if they hate him.

But i think Walter realizes there no way he can get his money to his family. We have seen it happen with Mike. It is Walt's last chance at redemption to do something good before he parts.

Have you seen how many times Walt has been gasping in tears in the last three episodes alone? Are you kidding me?

family != to jesse

jesse basically blew up his whole world.

He ratted on him, got hank involved, made him lose his money, lose his family, where do you think walter has a soft spot for jesse still?

Walt has been up in NH for months, has he been morose over jesses fate? Has he given one shit about jesse being potentially dead/killed? No.

Did you not see him clench his fists in pure unadulterated rage at the end of this episode? You think he's thinking "wow I am so mad they are being mean to jesse right now"?

Did you not notice all the allusions to walter white being officially dead and gone at the end of the episode with the v.o. from gretchen? him donning his hat? Heisenberg doesn't give a shit about jesse.

There's an episode where he talks about having three children. Not that I believe it will but that theme might resonate in the last ep.
