List of Breaking Bad episodes

"Felina" is the series finale of the American drama television series Breaking Bad. It is the sixteenth episode of season five and the 62nd overall episode of the series. Written and directed by series creator Vince Gilligan, it aired on AMC in the United States and Canada on September 29, 2013.

The plot finds Walt evading a nationwide manhunt for him in order to return to New Mexico to deliver the remaining profits from his illegal methamphetamine empire to his family, and to carry out revenge upon the neo-Nazi gang who double-crossed him, killed his brother-in-law Hank, took Jesse captive (although Walt does not know this) and present a threat to his remaining immediate family. Before doing so however, knowing the cancer will soon kill him, Walt takes a trip down memory lane to properly prepare himself for his death.

Upon airing, "Felina" was met with wide acclaim from critics. Several critics have called it one of the greatest series finales of all time.

After leaving the bar, Walt leaves New Hampshire in a Volvo, with Marty Robbins' song "El Paso" playing on the tape deck. He returns to New Mexico and tracks down Gretchen and Elliott Schwartz (Jessica Hecht and Adam Godley) at their new house in Santa Fe, after posing as a reporter for The New York Times. In order to circumvent the suspicions of the DEA and Skyler he orders them to give his remaining $9.72 million to Walt Jr., who will inherit it upon turning eighteen, saying this is their chance to "make things right". The Schwartzes believe there are snipers waiting outside, and after Walt tells them they'll always be watched to ensure they keep to his instructions, they agree. After Walt leaves, he pays Badger Mayhew (Matt L. Jones) and Skinny Pete (Charles Baker) for aiming red laser pointers at the Schwartzes and posing as hitmen. Walt learns from Badger and Skinny Pete that Jack Welker's (Michael Bowen) gang has been cooking and distributing blue meth and realizes Jesse (Aaron Paul) is still alive.
