A high school chemistry teacher diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer turns to manufacturing and selling methamphetamine, with his former student, in order to secure his family's financial future.
Breaking Bad's episode titles have long been laden with double entendres. The solution to the second season's mysterious flash-forwards, which turned out to chronicle a plane crash, was embedded in a series of episode titles: "Seven Thirty-Seven," "Down," "Over," and "ABQ" (or "737 down over Albuquerque"). "Face Off," the fourth season finale, was indeed a face-off between Walter and Gus Fring — but it also hinted at Gus' ultimate fate, which saw much of his face literally blown off by a bomb.
And now, as Breaking Bad prepares to walk off into the sunset with its last-ever premiere episode on Sunday, AMC has released the titles of the show's final eight episodes, and they're just as full of possibilities as the titles used in the rest of the series.
I've scoured the titles for potential clues and hidden meanings, and I think I've uncovered a plausible (though by no means conclusive) arc for what will happen in the final eight episodes. Judge for yourself, and feel free to share your own theories in the comments.
