All language subtitles for Breaking Bad No Half Measures

- Action.
- He's ordering me...

to stay and check your system,

And I can't get away.

We Are going back
to the beginning,

to a decisive era of Breaking Bad.

Before the series ended,
we wanted to make sure

of seeing the origin
of the story we saw,

Everything that
happened, in the end.

I'm sorry, I'll be late today.

I don't know what itchy Bogdan.

After chapter 514,
we filmed two more.

But since we had to shave Bryan
and change Jesse's appearance,

For logistics, we had to film
this breakthrough at the end.

So this is the last day,
not only of episode 514,

but the last day the
series is filmed.

- Thanks sweetie. I love you.
- I love you too.

- Cut.
- It's farewell day.

The last day of filming
of Breaking Bad.

There are like 23, 24 degrees.
It is a fantastic day.

So many hundreds of
people worked on this,

putting work, love and art,

That some days I think
I'm just one more.

Today I feel a little like that.

This day is terrible.
Frightening. This is horrible.

I had no idea, at first, that
the program would go so far.

Who would have said we would go
so far and have so many fans?

In February 2004, Vince and
I talked on the phone,

and I mentioned a New
York Times article

about a guy who cooked
methamphetamine in an apartment.

And we end up saying:
"It's a good idea,

maybe we should cook
methamphetamine in a motor home

to make extra money."

And before I knew it, a
Breaking Bad script came out.

They came with the idea of
the program to my desk

and I said: "It sounds
interesting, a little risky,

but we are like that, we go for
the interesting and risky idea."

And yes it was big,
interesting and different.

The time had come for Breaking Bad

It wasn't just a script,
words on paper.

We wanted it to be a reality.

And we wanted to make it
happen with our AMC partners.

We met with the president of
the study, Michael Lynton,

to give us his blessing.

They described the
program to me, and I

told them: "Let's see
if I understood:

He is a middle-aged chemistry
teacher with children.

He has cancer, and
decides to become

a methamphetamine trafficker."

And they said: "That's right."

If it had been a
movie, a scratching

record would have been heard.

There was only silence.
Michael looked up.

I listened to everything, but I
didn't make eye contact. And said:

"It's the most
delusional and worst

idea I've ever heard
for a program.

I don't care who writes
it. It's crazy."

We must understand that, at that
point, we were very involved.

And the story we told was
made with such conviction,

that there was no
way to be rejected.

They said: "We really believe
in this, we believe in Vince,

and we think it can be
a fantastic program."

I Replied: "Guys,
it's your careers.

If you really think this
is so good, do it."

I don't know if another head
of study had accepted it.

That is a compliment
to this place.

I don't think it would
have aired anywhere else.

Before I started with Breaking
Bad, I finished casting

for La Jolla Playhouse

and Bryan Cranston came to
be tested for the lead role.

And we were impressed.

Bryan Cranston has everything
necessary to do Walter White.

It was the perfect combination.

When we talk to Vince
about some ideas,

we couldn't stop talking
about Bryan Cranston,

whom Vince had in mind when
he started to form the cast.

So there was a coincidence,
and it was very useful,

because when you go to a chain

and you say that for
your new drama series

you want the father of
"Malcolm in the Middle"

You can imagine the
reaction you will get.

I thought: "This is an
incredible literary piece."

I wanted to spread my
scent on that character.

I wanted to mark it
as if it were mine

so that when Vince Gilligan
saw the character,

he could feel my
particular smell and say:

"I don't know why Bryan
leaves the page"

But that is what happened.

Filming of the pilot episode.

When we entered the
set, everyone gathered

in a unique and perfect way.

And Bryan and I had that
chemistry from the beginning

That really worked.

You quickly realised that
the team was top notch.

We had John Toll,
winner of two Oscars.

He was the director
of photography.

There were people who
offered to work for free

Just to be on your team.

I remember it was a cold
morning in To'hajiilee

I went out, pulled
Bryan aside and said,

"How do you feel with
your underpants?"

He said: "What is the most
embarrassing thing I can wear?"

I said, "Try the white
underpants," and

he said: "It's what
I'm going to wear,

that's what the character asks."

I wanted to be overweight.
I wanted to be a

guy who didn't care about
anything any more.

Get out of the motor
home on the pilot

and have my member folded
in my tight white underwear

It was not the image I wanted
the world to have of me.

And yet you have to have
the courage to do it.

This is a moment I
will not forget.

We were filming in the desert
and he danced in shorts

and I thought: "My
God, I love this man."

The idea of our
star would have so

much fun and not be
taken very seriously

especially while
we were doing very

intense scenes, it is
a wonderful thing.

Cut.

Luckily, for the
pilot's first display,

I already knew that
Sony and AMC liked it.

I remember John saying: "If you
add 20 minutes to that pilot,

it will be perhaps the best
independent film of the year."

We had it at Sony, just for
the team and the cast.

And we were all impressed
by how beautiful it looked,

and by how it was directed.

We All start screaming
and clapping,

We were so proud and surprised.

And I thought: "I can't
believe it's part of this."

I still didn't
understand how they were

going to transform
it into a series,

and I still didn't know
what Vince had in mind.

I honestly can't say I saw it
and said, "Oh my God. Eureka."

What worried them when
they finished watching it

It was: "This is fantastic, but
what will the series be like?"

I'm not sure Vince or anyone
knew how it was going to be.

When we stopped, we said, "Oh,
God. Now we must finish it."

Breaking Bad's trip was wild.

We didn't know what
we were getting into.

The first season aired.

We had seven episodes
to show the world,

of the original nine,
by the writers strike.

If you wonder why there were
only seven in the first season,

It is because of the strike
of writers of that year.

Vince managed to do it
with only seven episodes.

We had low audience.
I wondered: why?

Why don't more people look at it?

He was perplexed because he didn't
register it in the environment.

There were very low measurements
and few followers, but faithful.

Dean talked about
the measurements,

and wondered if I saw them.

I said: "No. What can you do?
Act with more determination?"

Like: "I'm trying. But if
you need better numbers,

I will really concentrate"

Thanks to critics and journalists,
because we liked them.

I must give them the credit. They

kept us in the air
in the beginning.

They told me there were no bad

reviews. We did not
have a bad review.

That first season
culminated with Bryan

winning the Emmy for Best Actor.

Suddenly, people said, "Wait,
what is this Breaking Bad?"

In the second, we had
our first full season.

In the second season,
we were excited

about the scenes
with Walt and Jesse.

It was transforming into
a two character show.

In other words, the series
is about Walter White,

but it's also quite
about Jesse Pinkman.

Michael Slovis entered
the second season,

and I think it
improved the program

in terms of its appearance.

It made it even darker,
more provocative.

- He brought Odenkirk...
- Better call Saul.

And Jonathan Banks.

The program evolved and enlarged.

The third season becomes darker.

He introduces us to
these well-dressed

cousins who turn out
to be very dangerous.

In the third, I began to feel
that our program took flight.

At the end of the third season,

Time magazine published the best
10 TV episodes of the year.

"One Minute", directed by
Michelle MacLaren, was number 1.

When Gus Fring arrived, we worked
at an impossible level to predict.

Giancarlo Esposito
brought the most intense

villain in the history
of television.

Mass production and
the super lab...

The laboratory was a point of
visual and physical inflection.

The third season was the
loss of innocence for Jesse.

The last scene of the season
is he pulling the trigger

and proving that he
was the bad guy.

The Emmy kept coming.

Bryan won for season three,
Aaron won for season three.

It was very exciting, a
confirmation of that society.

Three Emmys in a row made
people talk about Breaking Bad.

People, who otherwise would
not have known the program.

Only after the third
season I could say:

"Well, quite a few people
watch the program"

The success of the
program was evident.

Vince and the show won
for the third season

the Writer's Guild Award.

Stephen King called it "one
of the best shows ever."

Bryan Cranston and
Aaron Paul appeared

on the cover of Rolling Stone.

And what a memorable
moment that was.

For season four, it
got very dangerous.

Now it is about his ego and being
respected, and greed and power.

Every season more people watch the

program, more prizes,
more tension,

The reviews are still wonderful.

And partly because of
that Vince thought: "We

don't want to stay
longer than desired."

I won.

We reach the fifth season.

Unfortunately, I realised,
with the help of my writers,

that we only had about 16
episodes left in the story.

From the beginning Vince said
he wanted to finish the program

When I was doing well. And
only those episodes remained.

It was a difficult decision,
but I knew it had to end.

It was better to finish a
little soon than too late.

Breaking Bad writers
room. December 2012.

My most important task as head
of the program is lead writer.

It is the most important.

I run the writers room and
make sure the story is told.

- Don't you think we'll get there?
- I think, as we said last week,

There is a lot to do
before it takes off.

Like what? Seriously,
because I'm too close now.

The last 8 were a
challenge, partly

because people loved the series.

And we really wanted
it to go well.

Skylar... you have to
stay strong for your

children, or you can't
do it any more.

There was pressure also because
the series was praised by critics.

And that can generate
creative vertigo.

Something has to happen with
Junior, to force this issue...

There were so many pieces in this
puzzle that they had to fit.

There are two options:
either they leave

the city with him, or
they leave the city

to a different side.

We wanted to be one of the few
programs that end as they started,

You know... Kicking asses.

First day of the final season.

I have mixed feelings
in this last shipment.

I don't feel as nostalgic
as it would be.

Yes I feel nervous. I
am a sentimental guy.

I will miss this a
lot when I finish.

Everyone who works here feels

This must end at the
crest of the wave.

I don't want to finish, I
want this to go on forever,

because I think we have
formed a family here.

- How are you? How is everything?
- Very good.

- Did you arrive at night?
- Yes, at 3:30.

The end is coming. How sad.

We are in the Q Studios, and
we will read episode 509.

The first of season 5b.

- Watch this.
- How are you? Good to see you.

- How is everything?
- Very good.

Every season is like going
back to summer camp.

You want to go back and see your

friends and everyone
will come back.

Anna Gunn, people.

How are you? Good?

- You look good.
- Thank you.

Our approach was led by Bryan.

The boys savoured and enjoyed
every second together.

And they enjoyed every minute,
because we were so lucky.

- Thank you. Good to see you.
- Did you drive?

No, I took a flight yesterday.

Before you begin, let
Vince Gilligan speak.

Welcome to our final reading for
this episode... Where is Peter?

That Peter Gould wrote, and that
he will direct Bryan Cranston.

Breaking Bad, episode
"Blood Money", 509.

Why Kaylee Ehrmantraut

You need someone to
take care of you.

Mike is able to take care
of his own granddaughter.

It's amazing to be in a
script reading with actors

after 4 or 5 months of vacation.

See these bright actors
sitting and do their roles

as if they had been
living these 5 months.

If Mike were alive,

you should be taking care of your
back for the rest of your life.

You are not like that.

I think he's dead and
I think you know it.

- The astringent is placed first.
- Yes, astringent.

All the moisture in
my face went away.

I knew Bryan Cranston was the
right guy to play Walter White.

I Knew he was the
man for the role.

What we are doing is ageing it and
deteriorating it in some way.

Poor Walt.

The way he stood up to the
circumstances was amazing.

He is very interested
in this character

and add the correct details.

It was the role for him. It
was his destiny, for me.

Bryan is absolutely
different from Walt.

And when he puts
on that skin, that

make-up, he becomes Walter White.

And it is a true transformation,

of a man who loves life, happy
and optimistic by nature,

to Walt, who is so
dark, so damaged.

They could not be more different.

I realised the dynamic aspect of
Walter White from the beginning.

Now is the time to say goodbye.

He was a beaten man, and still
in his physical decline,

He could concentrate
on what he should do.

By highlighting the cheekbones, it
seems that the cheeks are sinking,

and it seems that you lost weight.

And of course, with
the turkey neck,

It seems that he lost a lot
of weight in a short time.

Because of the way
the series is made,

each episode has a
different director.

Sometimes he's a guest
director, sometimes it's me,

or Vince Gilligan, or
another of the writers.

Sometimes it's our
cinematographer, Michael Slovis.

And sometimes, Bryan Cranston.

I Liked discovering
in preproduction

it was the destruction
of the White's house,

and how depressing it was to
see it for the first time.

It was like trampling
a grave when you

see the house in those conditions.

We have two parents in the series:

one is Bryan Cranston and the
other is Michael Slovis.

Michael Slovis, is our
director of photography

and, as such, is responsible
for the image of the series.

The only reason I see is that
you are against the wall

It Is always said
of cinematographers

You get them either good or
fast. Never in both ways.

Michael Slovis is a rare case
since it is excellent and fast.

Look at me from both
sides... because...

- Then, you enter...
- We have the subjective take...

I have the subjective
and then you go.

.It has something
interesting behind.

- I have your reaction...
- Contrary to... this.

At first, Vince and I had a plan

where the series should go in
terms of tones and colours.

As Walt became this evil being,

I watched the program
darker and darker.

With this good material, I can
paint with a wider brush,

Because he can stand it.

Now we are making
the subjective...

from Heisenberg walking
through his old burned house

I'm Andrew Voegeli, cameraman A of
Breaking Bad, from season 2 to 6.

As it is a series with camera in
hand, it is an exhausting process,

From beginning to end, every day.

Action.

It is a very physically demanding
program, and very difficult.

And cut.

The first day of filming 509,

We held an ideas meeting for 510.

- How are they?
- How are they doing?

- We are parking cars on board.
- Good.

We'll see how many survive
when you come back.

We are in the preproduction
of episode 510,

written by Tom Schnauz.

Tom is perhaps my oldest friend.

We met in 1986, at the
Tisch School of the Arts,

at the University of New
York, at the film school.

Great job with the script,
very well written.

Thank you.

Everybody likes it.

Diane, I think they talked

about doing something
with the visual

field, with the point of view.

I met Michelle in the late
'90s, in "The X-Files."

In these neighbourhoods come less,
which are visually fantastic,

They all have fences.

Every time she directs an
episode, I can be calm,

because I know he will
ask the right questions.

I don't think another
neighbourhood is

necessary for your
episode and Bryan's...

Don't have the fences and that.

The good thing about Vince
is that it doesn't change.

He likes everyone to be
comfortable, to have fun.

It's professional,
but let's have fun.

We have a lot of work to
do, let's do it right,

But that is our strategy.

Tom, Diane, Mand, do you want to
dress in overalls and shirtless?

And now this comes, yes. Right?

When Dean Norris leaves the
bathroom in the first act,

carries the weight of
discovery on his shoulders.

There were many ideas at
stake. The audience asks:

How will Hank feel when he leaves
the bathroom? What will he do?

The thought process for
me is: Now what do I say?

Should I say how I feel?

And you see that nobody comes
because you carry the book.

You are ready to hide the
book behind your back

It's great that Hank
finally catches

the white whale he's hunting,

With his own book.

And after that, everything
breaks loose, unfortunately.

56.6. And... action.

Cut.

Would you do something
differently? One of you?

Now he is thinking
"where is Walt...?"

In a way, it's like a
zombie. In his own mind...

He doesn't even know where
he will go. Makes sense?

There is a lot of analysis at
every moment of Breaking Bad.

And when he directs
Bryan Cranston, he

is open to suggestions
from writers.

That always impresses me.

Do you think he is waiting
for Walter to enter...?

I would say that
when he enters the

living room, he could hear it...

There the kitchen.

I could hear it, but
until then it's like...

- You know? Let's try it.
- Okay.

Dean?

Let's pretend you're stunned, ok?

Part of you is working, and
another part is stuck here.

Yes, we will see...

And... action.

You have to accept the
collaborative nature of this.

If you do not, you
will be in trouble.

They will hate working with you
because you are a dictator,

type "is done as command or not
done", and that is not true.

You have to allow
different opinions.

Take a deep breath... and leave.

Cut.

I Think that level
of collaboration

It's what makes Breaking Bad work.

It Is what makes
these scenes work.

What did you think, Dean-O?

It's okay. It feels different.
It is something different.

How many shots do we
have? Three? You like?

I think it was fantastic.

I really liked it.

They think very fast.

And you can take an
idea from me and

get something specific out of it

very quickly. And that is the fun.

This person is the one who
works the most in the team.

- Lady Helen Caldwell.
- Hi.

Our script supervisor. It
is a sole proprietorship.

So when they have department
meetings, she must go.

We control things.

We control each shot, what
is printed, what is not,

what line they said when
they stopped and walked,

where they stopped, if
they moved left or right,

and if they forget a line,
I subtly tell them...

- It does.
- You screwed her up.

He comes and tells
you: "Did you want

to skip this line?
Did you want that?"

And I say: "Oooh..."

The last talk at the
end of episode 509

It's something we expected
from the end of the pilot.

Since Walt decides to
be a criminal, and

to be targeted by his
brother-in-law...

It is this. This is the moment.

So the idea is...

It is a bit different to work with
a protagonist who also directs.

It's a bit more stressful,
because he has his vision,

Know exactly what you want.

You want to be safe, but
also give him what he asks.

And then you return
to your position,

just that fraction of a second...

Looks fantastic.

Come here.

In this scene I hit Bryan, Walter
White. But he does not know it.

And... action.

You're good?

I must say that I don't like
how you're looking at me.

In most fights,

It's not that they
keep on and keep

sticking. It's a fake
Hollywood thing.

Giving and giving... In general,
it's a punch and... boom.

Was over. It is violent, fast.

- Your.
- Take it easy.

You drove in the
opposite direction...

Listen to me...

- not to go to that laundry.
- Listen to me...

That call from Marie... that
she was in the hospital.

That was not Pinkman.
You had my number.

I am pleasantly
surprised by the pain

that comes out of
Hank's expression,

of his mood. He is enraged. They
betrayed him, he is tormented.

You killed 10 witnesses. You
put a bomb in an asylum.

I don't know where you got
that from. Listen to yourself

He won't hit me again,
but... he grabs my head...

Vibrating with this anguish.
It is... heartbreaking.

If that's true, if you
don't know who I am,

So your best option
is... to be careful.

In episode 510,

we have this
methamphetamine / bus lab

that W. Gilpin built and Mark
Freeborn designed for us.

This is the team of the
first half of season 5,

that grabbed Todd.

It is the equipment
used in the alibi

of the Mobile Pest
Control Let's Go.

They made a deal with Todd, so he

took it and Walt
left the business.

Mark Freeborn in a mix between
Santa Claus and a Hell's Angel.

In a show full of characters
in front of the camera,

behind the camera he is a
character par excellence.

A lot of these
elements are... found.

This kitchen mixer
used for chemicals.

All connected to this 80 cm hole
with a hatch in front of the bus.

The effect is to create
a sinister, gloomy,

uncomfortable,
unhealthy environment,

compared to the hygienic, safe,

clean... nothing
from Walt and Jesse.

It is fantastic, it
has so many details.

The windows are made of Plexiglas.

They made graffiti.

The land is contained
in the Plexiglas

behind the windows.
Are you ready, Anna?

Ok Laura. I'm going to give you
the signal to bend over, ok?

Then I'll say "bullet." We
may do it a couple of times.

Michelle MacLaren
directs action better

than anyone with
whom I have worked.

The shooting occurs
off camera. And

that drove her crazy
when she read it.

He said: "When are we going
to see the shooting?"

"Because we don't want
to do it that way.

We want to do it from the point
of view of Lydia Rodarte-Quayle

while listening to the
shots above her."

"But can't we see
a little of that?

Can't we cut that a
little, just a little?"

He said: No.

Cap. Bang.

Bang. Bang bang.

One of the things I like about

Michelle is that
while still limited,

He is still able to make
the most of those moments.

Earth. Lower your
head. Look up, Laura.

Look at the cap. Bang. Bang bang.

We are on a bus as a stage,
and there is no shooting up.

But the actor is on
stage, alone, and

you want to help him
create the mood.

You cannot say: "Earth.
Bullet. Bang, bang, bang."

Because the actors do not work.

Look at the board, go there.

Head down. Bang. Bang bang.

And... hatch noise...

Get in situation.
It's "bang, bang,

bang". It's really happening.

Cut. Nice job. Thank you
very much, it was very good.

Laura, you can go home
and soak your feet.

I was afraid, but I was also...

delighted to have
such a great role.

Luckily I was able to immerse
myself in the character.

We finish with Laura, people.
Give it a round of applause.

Although this scenario appeared
for only 2 and a half minutes,

It is a link in the chain
that tells a story.

The best way to tell a story
is with a complete chain.

So, only 2 and a half minutes
on screen? Does matters?

It was worth every second.

Ok guys. The first team entered.
Let's be silent Silence.

There is talk of great
moments in Breaking Bad.

But it can be said that
the heart of the program

They are the quietest moments.

Like when Walt is passed
out on the bathroom floor.

These silent moments,
in which we understand

where are the characters and
what do they believe in,

They are the heart of the series.

Jesus.

It's great to work with an
actress like Anna Gunn.

We develop a very deep friendship
between us, and a trust.

We knew we were going to take care

of ourselves and
protect ourselves,

as actors and as people,
on stage and out of it.

And... action.

Oh God.

How long was I unconscious?

Like four or five hours.

Skylar began as the moral
centre of the program,

the one that said: "Wait, what are
you doing? You can't do that."

And that angered the public.

Does it make you happy?

I don't remember the
last time I was happy.

When they tell me: "I
hate her, she's a bitch",

I think: "Why do you
say that? Don't

you understand what is going on?"

And I take it very personally.

And what we conclude is that in
each series there is a protagonist

and an antagonist. And here
the protagonist is Bryan.

But he is an antihero. He is a
guy who does very bad things.

Vince never wanted a weak woman
to wring her hands and cry.

If I got teary in
the first seasons,

He told me: "Don't do it."

I wanted it to be steel.

Very strong, a steel
column from the beginning.

He was very specific in that.

If you surrender, you will
have to hand over the money.

Is that how it works.

Perhaps your best option...

be not talking.

Cut. Very good.

One of the reasons that
this has so much power,

is that writers have
been very consistent

with the characterisation of
Skylar throughout the series.

And Anna has been
brave not to loosen.

Anna is a bright and brave actress
for seeing the real Skylar.

Michael Slovis
directed episode 511.

There are two things that
I love the way he leads.

One is its emphasis on acting.

How do we get to that?

"Hank, this video has only lies,"
and let's see where it leads.

Let's see where it leads.

Watching Michael deal with
the actors is wonderful.

It has that magic touch.

What if I say "shit,
will you ask me"?

Exactly.

Ok, I like it.

He'll ask me, I know, and
I don't want to say it...

It was a difficult scene. In
general, they get it fast.

Small movements, the volume of
the voice, in a scene like this.

That is why it can be
complicated to solve.

It's very interesting to
see her below, you above,

She looking so small.

I feel very small now.

I always do my emotional
scenes with Betsy,

it's very comfortable.
Really. It has

been very good to do it with you.

I told Dean that it is a privilege
and an honour to make his wife.

This is another scene with
Betsy, Walt's confession.

And we chose to see her for the
first time while recording,

This is how we reacted as
if it were the first time.

My name is Walter Hartwell White.

I live in Negra Arroyo Lane 308,

Albuquerque, New Mexico, 87104.

This is my confession.

If you are watching this
recording, it is probably dead.

Killed by my brother-in-law,
Hank Schrader.

Who would have shown this?

To nobody. It's a threat.

It's what he will do
if I don't retract.

You should show it to Ramey.

Go ahead.

This video is a lot of lies.
Anyone who knows you will know.

Yes, yes, I know that.
They are not stupid.

177,000?

What are you talking about?

- Marie?
- And... cut.

That was more...
that was wonderful.

It is a difficult scene,
full of comings and goings.

These guys were fantastic.

Don't you think we are the ones
that work most comfortable with?

- You are the best.
- And the most talented.

Yes absolutely.

God, he's a bullshit liar.

Action.

Agent Schrader, did you
hit any suspect lately?

Tall and Higher, ask him
his story with my client.

Last time, he fainted the
poor boy with a punch.

What will it be, a
big lawsuit like

Montana? Because I
will force them.

The invitation to participate in
the program took me by surprise.

I was shocked, surprised,
I never saw it coming.

Bye Rocky. Keep the left up.

Detectives, I invite
you to retire.

In the second season I
was in three episodes,

and in the third one
I was in 10 of 13.

And I hadn't seen the
show yet. Still.

I didn't see her
from the beginning.

So in my second season,
the third one you saw,

I didn't know what
was going on or who

I was talking about
in my monologues.

Especially if it was Gus
or another character

with whom I did not share a scene
or interact, but I knew him.

Bryan sometimes
looked at me because

I was wrong in the emphasis,

He said something wrong...

He told me: "Gus is the guy
I work with, you know..."

And then he told me: "You
never saw the show, right?"

And I said...

I never responded.

Do me a favour. Tell me
exactly what happens to you.

My boys break their asses

trying to hide Walt's
money from the feds,

And you throw it out
the window, and

should I find out from the news?

Certain aspects of
comedy are difficult,

and good comedy is... difficult.
You know, it requires an effort.

I Feel this is much
more difficult.

I screwed it up. Seriously, I
screwed it up three times.

I backed up a lot, I
didn't turn towards

the camera. I invented my lines.

Is that a problem here? Does
Breaking Bad like that?

No. They don't like
it. Not at all.

Sometimes I feel he thinks he
doesn't deserve this character.

And he totally deserves
it, playing Saul Goodman.

Because he knows it's
funny. And it is.

But he doesn't realise what a good
dramatic actor he has become.

It is, and it always was.

- You will, you will.
- But when?

- At the end of the eighth.
- In the eighth season?

Yes, you'll be fine. Oh,
do I have to be here?

Do I have to have a memory aid
so Odenkirk doesn't screw it up?

Yes, exactly.

Another thing that Michael Slovis
does well is to choose locations.

And it is seen in episode 511:

the dunes where Saul,
Walt and Jesse meet.

Vince always said he saw
Breaking Bad as a western.

Sometimes, when we shoot in the

desert, it feels
like it's a western.

We are in the dunes
of little bird.

It's very cold now,
like 3 degrees.

We are filming Walt, Jesse
and Saul in the desert.

In this scene Walt convinces
Jesse to leave Albuquerque.

Saul meets a man who specialises
in giving new identities.

I would move you to a very distant

place, and I would
give you a new life.

We film in many desolate places

which are the reflection of how
these characters feel sometimes:

Very lonely and disconsolate.

Just ask me a favour.

Tell me you don't give a
shit, and that is this...

Is this or you will kill
me, as you killed Mike.

I feel more comfortable
playing someone I am not.

I'm terrified of speaking in
public, being in front of crowds.

But facing camera,

while someone is completely
different from me,

I feel confident there.

I mean, isn't that
what we're here for?

Gathered in this remote place,

In case I say no?

When you see Bryan
and Aaron together,

You see the situation of a mentor.

Aaron became a better actor

for having been with Bryan.

Bryan Cranston can't
get much better

but he realises that he reached
his best performance with Aaron.

These two types are
good for each other.

Cut.

Cut.

Beautiful.

Search of the complex.

I knew that the series would end
in this particular complex.

It was very important to
determine and prepare it well.

The writers told us that we
had to find this complex

that appeared in a
previous episode

but that would play a very
important role in the end.

It was a challenge, but
by the work of God,

or of the gods of Breaking Bad,

we find this perfect environment

That is an old moulding plant.

A lot of things are going to
happen here, when we finish.

Here we are going to film...
I hope so, probably.

This barrel-shaped building
may be Todd's laboratory.

It has truck doors on both sides,
it looks fantastic inside.

And this brown building,
right in front of us,

It Is probably Uncle
Jack's barracks.

Originally, the barracks, the
laboratory, Jesse's cell,

It was a great atmosphere.

And now we have all
these buildings to use.

And this horrible
and fantastic well.

My team and I found
this place wonderful.

We will bring Jesse
here, my writers and I,

and, surely, in the end,
we will take it out.

I think he's more worried about
him, but no more than that.

- I think you're right.
- I think... yes, exactly.

Today is a very
exciting day for us.

Because it's the first time
that writer Sam Catlin directs.

Give him something, like "I
won't," something like that.

I like to give people
opportunities in Breaking Bad

so that they grow, learn
and do new things.

The first test for
a writer to direct

I have the enthusiasm to
do it and come and ask me.

I did not make public
that they asked me.

I wanted them to do it
because they wanted to,

not because they heard that
other writers wanted to do it.

That's it?

Do you want to see it?

It's okay?

You want to keep the tension
all the time, don't you?

He will do it. So shall.

Let's get this over with.
Let's record, let's record.

Although I wasn't
crazy about the idea,

because I wanted them in
the writers room with me.

But I couldn't tell them no,

because they wanted it, they
deserved it, they earned it.

And, as head of the program,
sometimes you must allow them

follow your instincts
and do things

that you consider important.

I had an advantage because
I had written the episode,

I know the tone of the program,
and I know the actors personally.

So I had an advantage.

Jesse, turn off the lighter.

He poisoned a little boy.

An 8 year old boy.

Just because... you know...

it was a play.

Walt is a son of a bitch.
The secret was discovered.

We will talk.

And... cut.

That was beautiful... beautiful.

Sam was an actor.
And I knew it would

be great working with the actors.

Wine prepared, confident. I
knew exactly what I wanted.

He did not try to do
more than necessary,

And he did a great job.

In college I met a young man
named Takahiko Kitazawa.

I had cerebral palsy.

His condition was
severe and he needed

crutches to walk, like Walter Jr.

I knew him well, and he
was a wonderful person.

One of those people who enrich
you for having met them.

He was about 25 years old when
he died, shortly after college.

And I thought about
him when I thought

about Walter Jr and his illness.

When he wrote the
character, he had

in mind his physical qualities,

how it really was And when I saw
that in the script, I thought:

"Just. I already have it."

Although the character
has cerebral palsy,

We knew he wasn't going to treat
the character differently,

Just as RJ is not treated
differently in real life.

Hopefully, if that sends
a message to the public

of how to integrate people
with an apparent disability,

I think we contributed
a little to that.

- I love you friend.
- I also.

I am the luckiest in the
world to work with this man.

I thought it was Bob Odenkirk
you wanted to work with.

- No, actually Bob is...
- Don't come with that crap.

You wanted to work with
Bob Odenkirk, not me.

I work with you since
I was 13 years old.

So you're sick of me.

You know, you have to
spread your wings.

The bird has to leave
the nest at some point.

You have to take a
moment and think:

"Well, I'm going to jump off the

highest trampoline."
And then you go.

We haven't been much in this
series in the office environment.

In the script, this was a park.

Christian, our outdoor
manager, came

up with the idea of this place,

which is not a park,

but that is so busy
is what we need.

Can you reach the phone?

Wait there. Wait.

We use one of these...
these headphones.

I put them in my ears,
he puts them in his.

We hear each other because
we also have microphones.

Aaron is with his dialogue. He's

having a bad time
with his dialogue.

It is just this. Just a
little bit of dialogue...

Do not leave me.

He takes pride in knowing
his lines perfectly.

I Pride myself on
not knowing them.

He pasted his lines to
the phone, to read them.

Now I won't do it.

- It's okay.
- No, I will not.

Hey. Brando did it.

I am not Brando.

I meant Bob Brando.

I Didn't do it, let
everyone see it.

The camera is here and you
are looking at the phone.

Just put the lines... "No,
no, no, no." He said.

Why not?

Wait wait wait.

Is that so?

Helen?

"Next time, I'll catch you
where you really live"

Bryan behaves like an
immature guy on set.

And I say it as
smoothly as possible.

Cut.

I almost did well. Fuck.

Fuck.

We are telling a very
intense and dark story.

But when we don't film, it's okay
to break the tension with humour.

Now they are discussing the
coverage of Bryan Cranston.

Mine is already done.

So the most important thing of the
day is already done. But now...

I can hear you I
have perception...

- Oh, you can listen to me.
- With the eye of my mind.

And with the microphone in my ear.

I forgot that we had these
microphones in our ears.

But it's okay. He had to hear it.

He had to hear it.

Why don't I say my
lines off camera?

So eclipse your
performance on camera.

Insurance. You can read
it, Helen can read it.

You can grab someone from
the street to read it.

- It won't make any difference.
- Here we go, guys. Let's record.

I love what I do, I have fun.

And when people are ready,
either the actors or the team,

they work better.

They are happier. Happier
people work better.

They will say that I
am crazy, but I will

try this shot without
reading my lines.

Ready? Ok, here it goes.

Ambient.

I didn't anticipate
that the filming

of Breaking Bad was so much fun.

I never thought it was
such a fun place.

Action.

Nice try, idiot.

Jesse, where are you? I
just want to talk with you.

No, I will do nothing more
than you want. Ok idiot?

- Ok, just calm down.
- Oh. I'm super calm, Walt

This is just a warning that I
will go for you. You see...

And... cut.

If I have to point to a
person, it's Bryan Cranston.

And Bryan Cranston has done
this job for a long time,

He is a great professional. He
has been in good and bad sets,

in good and bad situations, and
I think he made the decision

that we are all going to
have as much fun as we can.

We are all going to
work piecework, but

we are going to treat
each other well,

To be kind to everyone, and
we can be a happy family.

Let's do it, yes?

Photo session for the cover
of Enterteinment Weekly.

Cute.

Bring it in, get in.

Let's throw blood. Are you ready?

You do it first.

Take it out, take it
all out, brother.

Let it go. Six years.

Watch out.

I look good?

We are in To'hajiilee. This is
where Walt buried his money.

This is the time when Walt is
arrested where his money is.

We have to prepare
it for the cars,

but we may have to go out here

and make the shot
from above here too.

When we knew we were going
to have this shooting

in episode 513

that it would result in the death
of poor Hank and poor Gomez,

I made sure from the beginning

that Michelle MacLaren
directed that episode.

He takes his cell phone
and his battery.

Find a place to hide.

There was so much to
film, so many people

and there were so many
references to looks

and to the connection
between different groups,

that I thought we
studied all the scenes,

so That everyone
knew the geography.

Now he has to get in the car.

It's when I see Gomez
leave, isn't it?

It's when you see Hank and
think: "Don't come, don't come."

- If I see Gomez...
- Well, you know. Is Jesse...

Wait a second. No no no no...

- Dean, say your dialogue.
- What dialogue?

"I know you are here". That.

And I'm going to give myself
to you? You must be kidding.

This man is responsible
for us looking so good.

It always makes us look
good. This man here.

Always take care of your
cameraman. If not, you are dead.

It's all I say.

Some people find it harder
to make them look good.

I know. That's why you have
hard work. I thank you

Andy Voegeli, our cameraman,

It has a unique intimate
relationship with our actors.

He's the guy who sees you,
tells you if it's a good shot,

If it's going to look like this or

that way. I always
go to him first.

And he adapts to our
movements, does

not waste time, makes
you look good.

It is as if you were
dancing with him.

Sometimes they even
tied us up, literally.

And I feel like we
are always tied.

Start looking around.

Get out, Walt.

I have it.

Walt never thought Jesse
would be working with Hank.

Heisenberg always seemed to be
one step ahead of everyone.

I thought of all
possibilities, all solutions.

This never crossed his mind.

Bryan and I said: "This is
the most difficult time

Walt has had here."

It is the end of the road for him.

Your only way out is
to kill everyone.

And I was prepared to kill Jesse,

but he is not prepared
to kill Hank.

Tall.

Turn around.

Hank started as the guy
focused and in control.

And then it crumbled.

Then he was back to what he was
before, when he played his game,

and there he catches Walt,
because he returns to his game.

It's like the circle is closed.

On knees.

This is the moment
of victory for Hank.

There is a sense
of duty fulfilled,

because the moment came
when this subject,

who sacrificed his
work, his marriage,

all it took to catch this guy
who cooks methamphetamine...

I love it, I love it.

We met Steven the first day
we went to the studio.

We met Vince and our DEA advisor.

And we get along.

How did it go with
the DEA training?

We arrested crack
addicts, remember?

Yes, sure.

- Could you patrol together?
- No, they didn't let us.

It was just us and
we arrested them.

- Yes.
- Only us.

It was nice to meet my best friend
in the series the first day.

And we are also partners.

Just being with him in
the shoot is exciting.

I like how he treats
everyone around him.

I am learning how it is done.

It's another lesson
that I'm learning.

How would you define it?

That, bastard. How
would you define it?

It is easy. In the
morning you tell them:

"What's up, fags?"

You are here already? Do
you get up at 6 like us?

What a fucking fag.

Good day.

Good morning, from Dean Norris.

Mr Norris, did you talk like that
when I was at Harvard University?

Did he talk like that?

He is the most unthinkable Harvard
graduate I met in my life.

- You understand?
- Graduated with full scholarship.

Graduated from Harvard University
with full scholarship.

I Don't need a
fucking mark, bitch.

It's on fire today.

That means "thank you, I'm fine."

"Thanks, I'm ok".

I always feel that I have to
do a little show when I film.

It makes me feel more comfortable.

I want them to be on my side,

So, when we do something
serious, they are with me.

I feel that when I get to the

filming, I have to
do a little dance,

make people laugh my way.

It's hard.

It's hard to say "son of a bitch"

as many times as me
without offending anyone.

Actually, they like it when
I say "motherfuckers."

There are a lot of people
sitting doing nothing.

Look at them... Sons
of a bitch. Look...

Nothing, nothing, nothing...

They came to work as a
team today. And nothing.

It's like Jesus told truckers:

"Do nothing until I return."

Then start with what we have.

Start with the
vacuum cleaner shop,

With this guy waiting for a lady.

He is very good with
vacuum cleaners...

"Where the hell are we?"

While filming the
shooting in To'hajiilee,

Vince was in Albuquerque
preparing episode 5-16,

but they were still
diagramming and writing 5-15.

There is a problem, about Saul and
Walt and how to disappear Walt.

It feels like...

We try to make sure
you feel different...

but it feels similar.

We wrote the last two chapters
until the last moment.

Of the six writers there were
two, Peter Gould and Tom Schnauz.

And we work piecework in
an office in Albuquerque

and we tried our best
to make the story flow.

But those moments are difficult.

You don't have so many
brains in the room

and a room you're
not familiar with,

So you do what you can.

What if we bring them all
together in one scene

and do we make that progress?

A very long advance.

My initial idea was to direct the
last two episodes, 515 and 516.

But it became clear that
he could not do it.

And I'm glad it was like that,

because it allowed us to have
Rian Johnson for a while longer.

- This is an essay.
- Action, Michael.

It is the third episode
directed by Rian.

He made the memorable
episode of the fly,

perhaps one of the
most controversial,

and last year he
did the episode in

which Skylar walks
towards the pool.

He is a great director. And he's
bringing that kind of verve here.

Today's scene, which
is an entire act,

It is important because we
lose two of our characters.

Action.

When the scene begins, Gomez
is dejected after the shooting

and Hank is hurt,
though not mortally.

And today he will die.

Calm down, naughty.

- Cut.
- Beautiful.

Done. Good job, people.

It was weird. You know it's
coming, and it's coming...

And you are there

It was a test, it is
difficult to film there.

You are making a scene and
the sand comes to your face.

They were not the best
conditions to record.

That also added something.

Ready... action.

What did we get into?

For a long time, things for
Hank were black or white.

And it became the moral centre.

This Heisenberg hunt
tested what he is made of.

But in the end Hank
chooses the right thing.

I am the special agent Schrader...

and you can go to hell.

Hank.

Come on, you have to
listen to me, ok?

Hank knows from the
beginning that it's over.

And Walt implores them
not to kill Hank,

but Hank knew what was happening.

You are the smartest man I know.

And you can't see it.

He already made the
decision 10 minutes ago.

You see Dean in the eyes, and
you know what he is putting,

that inner strength
that was Hank's

heart throughout the series,

and you see her glow
in the final moment.

This is how one should leave.

Cut.

It's beautiful, it feels good,

and, even if it's sad, it's the
right end for that character.

What else to say?
It's over See you.

- A pleasure.
- Thank you. See you tomorrow.

Thank God he left.

It's an ass pain, my God...

I would never say
it in front of him,

and I don't want to be recorded.

God.

The lives of all of us
are a little better now.

Don't you think

- Oh, God...
- Be yourself, just be yourself.

Open up, it's just us.
It is a safe talk.

And the camera?

The next morning.

Killing Hank took us two days.

They kill him one day
and the next they

drag him and throw
him into a well.

This is the guy. A bullet in the
fucking head, now. Corey...

Now it looks like a grain.

"The Grain of Agent
Hank Schrader".

Watch me on channel
2, motherfuckers.

Ok, there we go. There
we go, walking away.

You drag it when
you hear "action."

Action.

- Cut.
- Keep dragging it.

You follow.

Ok, it's the moment we all
expected, after 60 episodes.

60 episodes later.

You go to CBS, where millions more
people will see your deficiencies,

than those who saw you here.

We wish you the best of luck.

- Thank you.
- We will miss you.

- It was a pleasure...
- What the fuck is this?

And for you too.

Thank you.

Thank you.

If you had told me the
first day of filming

how sad it would be to fire Hank,
I would have been surprised.

I didn't anticipate
how interesting

the character was going to be.

I thought he was a friendly,
masculine, braggy guy,

That was all that
Walter White was not.

But we gave Dean Norris the paper.
And Dean is much more than that.

He is a complex and wonderful
man, with many edges,

I can't imagine how the
program would have been

Without Dean Norris playing Hank.

You have a feeling of end.

Every time we stop there are
little doors that close.

Oh God.

It has been a pleasure.

It's getting more disgusting,
sadder, you know?

Right. Are you ready? Rolling,

3... 2... 1... Action.

Please.

Please.

- Walt.
- Cut. Beautiful beautiful.

That scene was the combination
of the six years of series.

He knew how difficult and
demanding it would be.

So they prepared the bedroom
and I stayed there,

and then they came and
told me it was snowing.

I had to sit and wait.

Later they said it was no longer
snowing and they were ready.

Action, Anna.

Please stop. Please.

Please.

Please.

Please please please...

Please please...

ok, cut.

Sometimes, it is time for
an actor to surrender,

and your body says: "I don't want,
I don't want", because it's scary.

Rian approached me
after the first shots

and said: "Don't worry
about falling into

the street," and I
told him I was afraid.

He Said: "Yes. It's
fine, it's fine."

He realised that he needed someone

To take my hand and
say "you are safe."

He looked at me and realised that.
He turned and said: "Let's go."

He looked away and we were
ready. And we did it.

Please.

Please.

Please please...

Oh God please...

It feels real because Anna put
herself in Skylar's place

and he got on that roller
coaster of emotions.

Ok I have it.

I want to honour that
script and that character

putting everything to put.

Later, when I thanked
him for helping me,

He said: "You don't have
to thank me, you did it."

But he helped it happen.

Almost.

Sometimes I get up, throw
some shots into the basket,

and I was inspired by rest.

The program has two centres:

the production centre
in Albuquerque,

where cast and crew
are most of the time,

and the post-production
and writing

centre here in
Burbank, California.

Look, Mr Natural. I will
not let you sabotage this.

This guy won't take
you if you get high,

So stop wasting your time
or we'll both get screwed.

A TV episode is done three times:
it is written, filmed and edited.

You tell the story three times.

33% of the story is told
in the editing room

by Skip MacDonald
and Kelley Dixon.

I love this. How long is it going?

1:44.

And I only focus on this
because it's the only time

I see that he has a drug
and puts it in his pocket.

"Take it out" would be side A.
Side B would be "Mr Natural."

So we cut it, I think it has
a break in your mind here...

Vince has a unique
sense of rhythm.

Many times he looks at
the cuts when he works,

and says: "Can you pass it
again? Can you pass it again?

I'm trying to catch the beat."

When Jesse realises Huell took
the weed out of his pocket

By order of Saul, the director
decided to surround Jesse.

The camera revolves around Jesse,
and he searches his pockets.

Instead of having only one camera,
one shot, we decided to cut it,

to be able to create
some tension and nerves.

It is a more confusing take.

Ok, it's a... what time
do you think it is?

At dawn.

It's early in the
morning... 5:00 or

5:30 in the morning.
It's very calm.

As for the ambient sound,
there are no cars...

The detection session is
when everything was filmed,

and we see scene by scene,

and we discuss what it takes
to complete the process.

- Is that engine production?
- No, it's added.

Is very good. If it is too good.

In our screening sessions we
always have Vince, of course,

Michelle MacLaren is often there,

Then there is our supervising
sound editor, Nick Forshager,

our dubbing supervisor,
Kathryn Madsen,

our composer, Dave Porter,

our music supervisor,
Thomas Golubic,

and our music editor,
Jason Newman.

I'm there, as well as
the episode editor,

and we discuss where music
should be added or not,

what sound effects we want,

what background sounds we want,

If you need to arrange a dialogue.

The only thing with the squeak
is... It sounds like a swing.

I like the most serious sound. I
would add a sharper squeak...

Yes, yes...

It's like saying: "Did I hear
something? What was that?"

And heels... He doesn't always,

but let's put some sound effects

by Dragging the
feet on the ground.

Look at the line
that left their feet

on the ground. I had not noticed.

Mr Porter, what do you
think of the music?

Not sure what music to add here,

unless you think of something
that would add more to the scene,

As for his surrealism.

Dave perfectly understands that
history is the main thing,

and that music serves history.

It's fine for me,
quietly, at 4 a.m...

Yes, I think you're right.

If you asked me what emotion music
would add, I wouldn't know,

The scene is quite
silent, mysterious.

The silence of the carousel,
Jesse's foot crawling,

the simplicity of
that sound, they tell

you everything necessary
at that moment.

And in the end, if you set camera
at that time, what would you mean?

The post-production of
Breaking Bad is an art centre.

The program is improved
in every possible way.

The program becomes Breaking
Bad in post-production.

That's fine, it's fine.

Saul is a guy who wants
to be a playboy,

so you must have hair back and up.

When you have a hair
like Donald Trump's,

anything can happen.

- Hello Bryan.
- How are you doing, Bobby?

- What's up buddy?
- That's all, huh?

- Yes.
- I can't believe it.

- Hard to believe, right?
- Yes.

But you know...

It's a great scene, I love it.

This is the last scene of Bob
Odenkirk in Breaking Bad.

For me it is very important.

I was lucky to introduce
Bob in season 2.

I was on set when we started
creating Saul Goodman

and we filmed his
first commercial.

I had a great time with
Saul and Bob Odenkirk

And I'm so sorry it's over.

Your wife and your
children will be

thrown out of the house
by the RICO law.

That condo is gone, bank
accounts are frozen.

Your wife's photo should already
be in the news, next to yours.

Who will hire her?

Vince, in the program,
does not avoid

the consequences
of this behaviour.

Almost all other series and
movies dodge the consequences,

just for fun.

Do you think I wanted to run away?

Do you think I wanted
to leave her like

this? It was the
last thing I wanted.

It is common in any drama that
someone's father is shot,

and then it's as if
nothing had happened.

Real life does not work that way.

It is important that in this
small recreation of life

called Breaking Bad reflect
the most accurate life.

I will kill Jack and
his entire band.

I will recover what is mine
and give it to my children.

And then, only then,
will I be done.

With a great address and a
kind of sexy atmosphere,

which is extremely dark,

Vince tricks people
into watching a show,

a story about people
who make bad decisions

and the consequences
that these carry.

It doesn't end until I...

Was over.

We finished with Bob Odenkirk.

Thank you so much.

I said it many times and
will keep saying it.

Being here has been an
incredible gift for me,

In all possible ways.
It's hard to tell

because I would have to
tell you a very long story.

Thank you for your
professionalism, your quality,

his great spirit,
his personalities,

for being so welcoming.

This paper has been a gift for me,

I can never thank you enough.

Action, Robert.

A very interesting thing
from the penultimate episode

is that one expected
us to close things,

and, instead, we present
a new character,

and we presented it
in a new scenario.

Mr Lambert, welcome
to New Hampshire.

Cut.

We are on top of Sandia Crest.

Spanish explorers put it like this

because, in the afternoon,
these mountains light up

of a beautiful red and orange

and they look like a big slice
of watermelon, hence the name.

We are on top now.

Albuquerque is seen from above, it
is not so far in a straight line,

We are not far from sound studios.

I feel like I'm playing David
Lean or Stanley Kubrick.

We built this cabin outdoors, and
the interior is in a studio.

Similar to the Overlook hotel.
I think it looks fantastic.

I don't think I can close the
door at the time you ask.

Let's see how it comes out.

I love rough guys.

Rude old-fashioned,
old-school guys.

Not the poster and flag
types, but the silent types.

Mike Ehrmantraut was one
of those tough guys.

Robert Forster represents
another one of those guys.

See you in a month.

The actor starts from scratch
with each new dialogue,

and tries to reach ten by the
time he finishes filming.

You have to go from
zero to ten each time.

It is not an advantage
to have acted before.

You must start with new
material and learn it,

unravel it, understand it
and then try to mean it.

You paid a lot for this.
You have two acres here,

Lots of wood, a nice
and warm place.

It seems to me an ideal place
for a man to rest and think.

Look around, it's...

beautiful.

It has been very
helpful. Thank you.

I will be back in a month.

It was six years in this room.

- 2007.
- Yes.

- Hard to believe.
- Eisenhower was president.

It's the last two cards of
episode 516, episode 62,

that is the last episode
of Breaking Bad.

Do you want to put these there?

"Last visit to your precious."

okAY. Last Card - Last card.

- Very good.
- Do not do it.

We celebrate every time we
finish a season at Breaking Bad.

We usually celebrate with
champagne. In the writers room

We put the last card and
it is a special occasion.

We have a long tradition,
we put the episode number.

This is 516.

We Put it, it's the
last thing we do.

We put it in this corner. Y...

bingo.

This is the end of the
Breaking Bad writers room.

This time it was sadder
than other times

because we knew for sure
it was the last time.

I thought I would be sad, but
I was numb, as if in shock.

I haven't processed
it yet, months later.

I have not yet realised
that it is over.

It was an important final moment,
that last card up there.

It's the hardest of all, and
when the last one is on

You realise that the
delivery is over.

A toast to the best
writers, actors, producers

and television equipment
now and forever.

It is for all of you that
this program is what it is.

- God bless you. Thank you.
- Health.

Oh my God. I can not believe it.

It is March 10, 2013.

We are at my house in Albuquerque.
We are Aaron and Bryan.

We are reading the latest
episode of Breaking Bad.

We haven't read it yet. Do not...

We don't know... and
we're drinking beer.

I am so incredibly
depressed about this.

I know you understand it.

It was a personal experience to
receive the scripts week through.

You read it and you have your own
impression, how it impacts you.

And since this was the
last season, I thought:

"What if we read the last
script cold, on camera?"

This is all.

Go there, pick up the beer,
drive there, park...

I was panicking every moment.

"The whole room explodes
in machine gun fire.

The shots go through the walls
like Star Trek phasers,

going through Jack's band
like hot knives to butter.

The M16 was placed alongside,
on the platform made by Walt.

It rattles sweeping from side to

side like Satan's
windscreen wiper."

Prepare yourself, because
it is happening.

"Say it. Say you want this.

Nothing will happen until
I hear you say it.

I want this...

Jesse thought the same.
Drop the gun to the floor.

"Then do it yourself."

After which, it turns and leaves.

He and Jesse look at each
other for the last time.

Jesse puts first and accelerates.
The car is lost at night.

Walt stands watching him go.

Jesse accelerates against
the locked door. Bam.

He breaks it like nothing. It
will leave the complex behind.

Jesse's closed angle, determined
and without fear of anything.

Accelerate to the dark.

We have to imagine where it goes.

I would like to say "something
better", and leave it that way.

Take from above.

We see Walt, who enters
the box stumbling.

He lies on the floor on his back.

His eyes look at us, lifeless.

And yet, his final expression
is one of mild satisfaction.

We keep going up, watching Walt.

We rise as much as we can.

The image slowly melts to
black. End of the series...

I guess there will be no
sequel... But Jesse is alive.

How you feel?

Man, I feel sad.

It's excellent, it's... you know.

It is perfect.

- Ready.
- Action.

You want this.

You wouldn't have brought me
here if you didn't want to.

Who else was going to
direct the last episode?

Who would end the story
if not Vince Gilligan?

More like a murmur, faster.

Just take me home. I
will do the rest.

He is the mastermind,

He is the soul and heart of this.

You can only see one
silhouette, but

you can see a guy
in the back seat.

Vince Gilligan deserves
most of the praise.

I am the face

but he and the writers
are the column.

For us, that's how we
could say goodbye,

knowing that each decision, in the

end, depended on him
in that episode.

And that filled us with
a lot of confidence,

emotion and pride in
what we were doing.

She is not grieved enough.

And you're the one who
lost everything, not her.

You don't mind that she
lives in an ugly apartment.

You lost your husband.

Not only was it the
last episode, but

because it was the last episode,

We would see the characters
for the last time.

I think the life of an
actor is unpredictable.

In the last scene, you
can find yourself alone,

with the assistant director
reading you lines.

At Betsy's farewell,
that was the case.

Now we cannot attend it. Leave
your message after the signal.

It's me.

A truce, okay?

It is a complicated emotional
scene that she does alone.

- It was fantastic.
- It's so sad.

- It is. It's sad.
- It's too sad.

It broke my heart to
film that. I told Vince

that Hank and Marie would have
done anything for Walt and Skylar.

It is what I believe, they would
have done anything for them.

And that Walt and Skylar
have done what they did...

The only way Marie could forgive
them was for Hank to return.

And that will not happen.

- Do you want to do it or me?
- It is not an option. Thank you.

You are welcome.

Cut. Beautiful. Beautiful job.

I felt so weird.

Very well done.

Betsy, we all want
to give you this...

Our sincere feeling is
reflected in what I wrote:

"I would sleep with her totally."

- I think that says it all.
- Thank you.

I thank you for giving me the
opportunity six years ago.

I'm serious.

It is the best experience of
my career and also of my life.

Working with you has been
wonderful. I will miss you all.

We are fortunate to have
met you. God bless you.

Can you give me a real hug?

Squeeze me tight.

Bad news for the most
acclaimed television series,

Breaking Bad, whose final
season is about to begin.

Actor Bryan Cranson, known for
his role as Walter White,

reported a robbery in which one
or two super secret scripts

They were taken from his car.

There is no bad publicity.

- Oh God. Is incredible.
- They opened my car.

They took my bag with the script.

Now it exploded. Will
the secret be revealed?

What will happen?

It inflated disproportionately.

It was not the final episode.

Okay, we are safe.

We have the recording of
the 911 call. Stay tuned.

They will not believe
what we discover.

This is the last day of
RJ Mitte in the series.

It's Walter Jr.'s last day

We are filming in an
apartment complex

It plays an important role
in the final episode.

We will film the last shot
and say goodbye to RJ.

- Oh God.
- Lean forward a little.

Melissa Bernstein was on the
school bus in the pilot,

and it's there in
the last episode.

We are putting it to see it
when RJ gets off the bus.

I'm on 4 pads, this
is the fifth one.

So you know this is ridiculous.

Melissa Bernstein was a
phenomenal producer,

The whole cast and
team think the same.

It is a pleasure to
work with her, we

are lucky that she
is the producer.

He has been from the beginning and
will govern this city someday.

Is fantastic.

It ends where it started, the
circle closes. School bus.

Action.

The last episode is an elegy.

We see all the sadness and carnage
that Walter's actions produced.

And we see it more clearly
in Walter Jr and Holly.

Can you imagine
losing your father,

your house, everything you have?

Their entire lives were destroyed.

They are the innocence
of the program.

All victims can be summed
up in these two children.

Cut. Very good.

Mr Mitte, please come.

How are you?

- I want to thank you very much...
- Thank you.

For growing in our set,

and become such a good young
actor and do such a good job.

God bless you, you did a
wonderful job for 6 years.

Walter Mitte.

I give you this check.

I accept it.

Take it to any bank and
they will pay you.

I did not sign it yet. Do they
have an indelible marker?

I knew we would get
along. In the pilot,

when Anna improvised
in the clothing store,

when he tries on the cowboy
and says: "Like the skaters,"

and you say: "Do I look
like a skater for you?"

I thought: "This will be fun."

"The best son of the worst
father on television"

That is great.

You're a great person. I love you.

Bryan and I did our last scene
together and it was wonderful

because we said goodbye
as characters.

The things I did...

You must understand
why I made them.

Oh God...

If you say again...

that you did this
for the family...

I did it for me.

It is the end of a very exciting
6-year-old roller coaster.

It Didn't take much
to make emotions

They put you in the right mood.

I can see her?

Please.

Cut.

Great.

Then we had that section
in the baby's room.

And it was surprising because
we should be silent,

and it was the first time
the baby was really asleep.

He put on this whole set this
feeling of calm calm, beautiful.

And Bryan said: "We should do
it like this all the time."

Ready Action.

While I look at my daughter, full
of emotion, I must say goodbye.

I wanted to make that
scene without crying,

but I wasn't emotionally
prepared for that,

for the impact that everything
that happened to me produced.

Andy Voegeli, the cameraman, had
the camera on his shoulders

and I had it this close,
because I wanted a close-up.

While looking at my
daughter, I listened

to Andy, who is a recent father:

I was crying behind the camera,

and tried to remain still
while holding her.

It is a very exciting scene.

My tears jumped as I
looked through the lens.

I think some sighs and
snorts of mine were heard.

The team was also saying goodbye.

It was the end of the series

and honest emotions surfaced.

I continued for the
rest of that day,

but when Aaron appeared,
it was all over.

That killed me.

There I realised that
in a matter of minutes,

After a few shots,
everything would end.

Fantastic. Close the door.

We finished the scene, and it was
Anna's last shot in Breaking Bad,

and everyone in the room
got excited quickly.

When we finish with
Anna's final shot,

our assistant director took us
to another part of the study

so that we all get together
and enjoy the moment

and Anna said an
incredibly sincere

and exciting "goodbye and thanks".

As I said, it was like making
art with artists and friends,

and I will be eternally grateful,
I thank you all very much.

I love you and I will miss you.

Anna, playing that role, and
it was a very difficult role,

She was excellent, she
is a wonderful actress.

He played a difficult and
sometimes ungrateful role.

I Can't imagine
anyone doing better.

Hi Jack. Jack, are you home?

Jack, I want to talk to you for
a second. You got a minute?

Are you interested
in The Watchtower?

And... action.

Heavens, look at you
with that hair.

Is it real?

Yes.

Isn't it a wig? What did
you do before, you shaved?

Yes.

God, but what a good hair.

Other than that you
look like shit, but...

Hello to you too, Jack.

I Hope that when
everything is done,

It will be an exciting,
exciting and dramatic scene.

But filming in this
Nazi barracks was hell.

I hated every minute.

This scenery gives
you claustrophobia.

It was very small, dark,
it was full of smoke,

you blew your nose at night and
a stain of Rorschach came out.

You said: "When will this
end? This is a martyrdom."

I couldn't wait for it to end.

What made it possible was
the great actors we had.

We had Bryan and Aaron,

and we had the Nazis:
Uncle Jack, Kenny, Todd.

They are the most adorable
Nazis I have ever been with.

I'm kidding, but it was a pleasure
working with these actors,

and they made it easier.

Do you see what I'm talking
about, son of a bitch?

Do you think this is a partner?

Walt has reason to be furious
with Jesse, to hate him.

But in the final moment,
he can't pull the trigger.

Wonderful, wonderful.

Aaron, do you want to
try something else?

It is not a trickster question.

I liked it, but let's do it again.

Ok, again.

You have that pressure
every time you film.

Is there anything else? Are
we forgetting something?

Some detail, some
nuance, something,

"Do you want to try
something?", "Any ideas?",

We do that constantly.

And then he looks at it and
takes a few steps back...

- and he's scared and then it's...
- Yes.

Try using your muscle
memory. Ok, let's do it.

I don't ask if they want another

take because I think
it's not right.

Only as it is the last time,

I want you to be as
happy as you can.

And I'm happy that there
was one more take,

because he took it as
thoroughly as the previous one.

And... action.

Cut.

The scene of the final shooting

they were long, tiring,
tortuous days...

Two, one, bang.

But super fun. It really was.

In "action," hold your breath.

It's going to be bang, bang,
bang, bang, bang, bang.

Filming this sequence
was more than intense.

And it will also ram
against this thing,

and then try to hold
on to anything,

And all they will do is wait.

We have a sequence with doubles

in which Jesse hangs Todd and
throws him to the ground,

and we have to see
when the doubles enter

and when the actors come back in

We have a jerk vest.

It is a jacket for risky scenes.

We tie some chains from which the
other double can pull very hard.

And... action.

We made the actors
start the sequence,

do the hanging.

Stop, cut.

We stopped everyone, we doubles

to do all the action,

we make sure nobody gets hurt,

They hit the table
and the hard floor.

Tall.

We stopped him, we
put the actors back,

seamless, and in post-production
it will look great.

Action.

And all that must happen at the
same time that Walt shoots Jack.

Jack crawls and maybe
gets up a little.

And then we put the camera
back for the final moment.

And then we will take it from that

corner and it will
be a great shot.

And we still have
to finish the day.

And they are very, very long days.

It is not very difficult to
make these types of characters.

You make a take,

and Bryan is kidding, you kidding
with Aaron, do you understand?

We tease each other...
it doesn't affect me.

I don't take anything dark home.

You want your money, right?

Do you want to know where it is?

If you pull that
trigger, you never...

Cut.

While Aaron does his thing
in the front, we can...

put it to the left of the
box, facing the other side,

looking at the keys, or
better, testing the keys,

and Walt is coming towards us...

- let's put it together a little.
- OkAY.

We will make a shot
of Aaron in front...

and Bryan in the background.

That was one of the
most difficult scenes,

because it was just me
trying to keep control.

Me, Aaron, trying not to collapse.

Also because Jesse
finally escapes,

and will never see
this subject again.

Action.

And he hates him so much...

but he was very fond of him.

I Struggled to find
a father figure

and found her in Mr White.

Aaron has a big heart,

and I knew this would be the
last time I would see Walt.

All those last moments were
very exciting for him.

And cut. That was
very good. Thank you.

- What did you think, Andy?
- I think it was the best.

I thought it was the same.

When Jesse walks away
from this madness,

I figured it out at full speed...

maybe going to see Brock.

He is the only person
he would go to see,

to say goodbye.

When he says goodbye to Brock,

I imagine him becoming
a carpenter in Alaska,

or in wildland pilot in
New Zealand. Who knows?

Jess will leave the drug
business, that's for sure.

He will try, it will take time,

But he will try to
heal his wounds.

I see an auspicious future,
it won't take long.

The writers and I went through
many permutations for last.

It took us many months,

maybe we started talking
about it a year or more ago,

before conceiving and writing it.

Do we see him die really or not?

Does it end as "Butch Cassidy
and The Sundance Kid"?

Does he commit suicide?
Is this or that?

We finally arrive at the
question: what does Walt want?

Where is your head at that time?

And we told ourselves: wouldn't
it be touching and weird,

in a way that only
Breaking Bad can do it,

that his "precious", with which he

will spend his last
moments of life,

Is Your methamphetamine
laboratory?

His laboratory, which he designed
and made him bear fruit.

It is the last scene of Breaking
Bad, of the whole series.

Ready And... action.

The laboratory team
became a talisman.

He is playing it, remembering
his time with Jesse...

This moment gave him
enough adrenaline

to live a couple more minutes,

and put a touch more to your
existence before leaving.

Beautiful.

That was great. Print
and let's do one more.

The last shot Vince wanted
was Walt on the lab floor,

and he's dying, and the
camera goes up, up, up...

And we wanted to solve that.

We turn to Michael Slovis,
our director of photography,

and we ask him: "Do
you have any ideas?"

And he said: "You know what?
We shouldn't do it here.

We should do it in a studio."

Since we can't get well up
with a crane in the complex,

we recreate the stage here,
in one of our studios,

because the roof is high enough

as To make the take
that Vince wants.

So we have a huge crane behind me

which is not high enough,

so we put it on a
giant scaffolding,

so that it reaches the top.

This will be where Walt
gives his final sigh.

I would like you
to open your eyes.

That? I don't know if I should...

No, I would really like
you to open them well.

What you are doing
now is very good.

I want to keep an ambiguity
about your look.

- Will your eyes be closed?
- Open. We talked about that.

I think we deserve it, we
need you to have it open.

When they are closed, there is a
feeling that you are at peace.

And I don't want to imply
one thing or the other.

- Ready.
- Ready and... action.

We Explore not only
physical danger

from what Walt exposed to his
family, friends and himself,

but also the moral danger,

what happened to him
as a human being.

The degradation of his soul,

the inclusion of ego and hubris

developed in the nature of greed,

He never had before.

Those negative emotional
characteristics came into play.

There is an element
of victory here.

It is subtle, but it is there.

He finished things when he
wanted, on his own terms.

I think he has a lot to regret,

and he has many
sins to his credit,

things he regrets and
wishes he had never done.

But at this point there
is no turning back.

All you can do is deal
with your affairs,

make the money he has left
to his wife and children,

And leave like a damn man.
And that's what he does.

- Cut.
- Cut.

Thank you very much to the
Albuquerque police. Well done.

Nice job.

Chócala.

Thanks guys. Here we go.

Final day of filming of the
series. Advance of "Ozymandias".

It is the last day.

Our courageous leader.

I am starting to feel sad.

This is the last day
of Breaking Bad.

It will probably end
in an hour, or sooner.

It's starting to hit
me, I'm getting...

No one is happy to
finish the program,

Because we love each
other very much.

We are proud of the work,

And we love these characters,
we love this story.

But the fact that we
are doing it here,

and that we finish
with this flashback,

in which we return to the pilot,

From my creative and sentimental
point of view, it is wonderful.

I was thinking that maybe we could

Have some family
time this weekend.

There was a practical
reason for us to be here

on the last day of
filming, where we started.

Our beards

I couldn't have a beard
to film this segment.

I feel lucky, privileged
to do this episode.

Walt and Jesse look
like the pilot,

the mobile home is
in this place...

I don't know... I feel privileged.

- Gentlemen, we are ready for you.
- Yes.

We are not ready for them.

I am not ready.

Aaron was joking with
a depression attack.

Oh no.

Oh jesus.

"This is horrible. It's awful."

And it looked like this.

Frightening.

I was so sweet, maybe
not so innocent,

but as sweet as the
day we started.

This is terrible.

Am I ready to leave
this? I think so.

But obviously I have a personal
relationship with Jesse Pinkman,

and I love him very much.

And it's sad that I never
do Jesse Pinkman again.

And now that?

We wait.

Don't you have another eight
details to review first?

Aaron is so emotional, with
his feelings to the surface,

is love personified,

that feels things
immediately and deeply,

and I think it will help you spend

this day having Bryan
as your support.

- I loved.
- Now we turn around.

Incidentally, I have to go.

Can we bring Sean here?

I would like to go on the road.

You know, getting into
traffic would be great.

Do you have any objection to that?

It's okay. Goodbye. Thank you.

Take final for this scene.

I am in the final shot. That same.

It's a nightmare.

Bryan set the tone.

"It's going to be ok".

It is a long road, and this
is something to rejoice.

To keep joy at the forefront
of this experience.

And I think his perspective
helped us all.

We are about to film the
last shot of Breaking Bad.

I Wear glasses
because I am crying.

Rian Johnson is the
director of this episode,

but he asked me to say
"cut" on the last shot,

and I'm touched by that.

I should say that I feel like
doing it, but I don't have them,

because, when it does, it
means we officially finish.

But it was a nice gesture, I
want to do it. It will be cute.

I would like to film again
that scene we did before,

if possible.

The image is already.

OkAY...

Ready... action.

Well, if we had a freezer...

the condensed liquid
would cool faster...

because this is an
exothermic reaction...

which means it gives off heat...

Put me in a coma, please.

In here, no.

What did you say? What happens?

- Oh my God.
- They are filming, aren't they?

Action.

Not here.

As if he were an idiot.

Yes. As if you were an idiot.

Fool.

Say it, boss.

Cut.

Vince is one of my best

discoveries as a producer,
if not the best.

I knew I had a special
and unique voice.

I couldn't be more proud,

I can't tell you how
proud I am of him.

Thank you very much to all.

We are like a family and... Wow.

Let's drink it as a family here.

I will never forget
this experience,

Not to any of you.

Thank you very much
for... I don't know...

Thank you. God bless
you. Thank you.

We know how lucky we are
to be on this trip,

especially with this man,

that has created an environment...

such a unique narrative style

and that he has obtained this
reaction that we all know.

He brought us here.

Not only did it change my life,
personally and professionally,

and Aaron and all the
actors, and the writers,

and the directors who
were in the program.

You do that all that and more.

You gave credibility to
filming here in New Mexico,

with a team that is top
notch, as you said.

I have a heart full of his
love and support, his talent,

and we thank you very
much. God bless you.

Oh God. Watch this.

- From the cast and crew.
- Oh thanks.

I'll miss you so much.

It's terrible, this is scary.

I really refuse to accept it.

You come every day
with so much passion

and excitement for this
work, like all of us.

We appreciate it.

Vince Gilligan... God.

Thank you for creating
such a brilliant,

crazy, dangerous
and brave program.

I can not thank you enough.

Bryan...

Yes...

I love you, man, you know? Fuck.

I love you, man, you know?

We are very fortunate to have him
as the number one in this program.

We applaud this guy again.

You have made me
improve as an actor,

and I think also as a
person, so thanks.

Thank you.

I remember we were filming
in the first season,

and we were rolling on
the ground somewhere,

and we walked for lunch,

and you said: "Isn't this great?"

And you were all sweaty
and full of sand.

And I remember telling you:
"I hope you remember this.

That we are the
luckiest in the world."

We Know and really
understand that.

And we will be forever united.

With thanks, with love.

- I love you.
- I also.

I don't think I'm the owner.

I consider myself a shareholder,
rather than an owner,

If that means anything.

I pass through so many
hands to get here,

many people in front of and
behind the camera contributed

- and made this what it is.
- Thank you.

Last photo, next
to the motor home.

There is a great feeling
of family, of cohesion,

all these people coming
together, I don't

remember how it
happened exactly...

only happened.
