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.

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?

User Reviews

Not a 10/10 like all these fanboys are giving it

Here's a honest review. It's solid but not great. It tells the story of what happens to Jesse following the events of Breaking Bad and what he needs to do to try and flee the town. If you're expecting the high octane drama of Breaking Bad, it's not here. It's a suspenseful slow-burn that left me feeling like I didn't get what I was expecting. Cool little story about Jesse, but not the fireworks that is Breaking Bad. And definitely not a 10/10 that all these moochers are giving it.
