Storyline

Finally free from torture and slavery at the hands of Tod's uncle Jack, and from Mr. White, Jesse must escape demons from his past. He's on the run from a police manhunt, with his only hope of escape being Saul Goodman's hoover guy, Ed Galbraith. A man who for the right price, can give you a new identity and a fresh start. Jesse is racing against the clock, with help from his crew, avoiding capture to get enough money together to buy a 'new dust filter for his Hoover MaxExtract PressurePro model', a new life.

Goofs

When Jesse goes with Todd to Todd's apartment, it's apparent before breaking into the room Jesse is with the clothes and shaven beard from the present. Once inside his beard and hair and his captivity clothes magically reappear. This is because we are looking at a smooth cross fade between the current Jessy going to look for the money and the time he first visited the apartment learning that Todd had a stash of money no one would know about.

Quotes

[first lines]
Jesse: You know he's not gonna be happy.
Mike Ehrmantraut: No. I suspect he won't. Only you can decide what's best for you, Jesse. Not him, not me.
Jesse: I'm out.
[pause]
Jesse: So what are you gonna do with all that money?
Mike Ehrmantraut: Same thing I do with all the other money. How 'bout you, teenage retiree? You'll be livin' the dream.
Jesse: Not sure I should stick around town.
Mike Ehrmantraut: That's a start.
Jesse: Nothin' really keepin' me here. Where would you go? If you were me?
