"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 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 universal acclaim from both critics and audiences alike, with several critics calling it one of the greatest series finales of all time. ==Plot== 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. On his 52nd birthday, Walt purchases an M60 machine gun and retrieves the ricin from his abandoned house. He intercepts Todd (Jesse Plemons) and Lydia's (Laura Fraser) meeting at a coffee shop and makes a business proposal, offering a new formula for methylamine-free meth. Todd turns him down, but Lydia feigns interest in order to lure Walt into getting killed by Jack. Later, Skyler (Anna Gunn) receives a phone call from Marie (Betsy Brandt), who informs her Walt is back in town. Marie is unaware that Walt is already with Skyler. Walt leaves Skyler with the lottery ticket on which the coordinates of Hank (Dean Norris) and Steve's (Steven Michael Quezada) graves are printed and advises her to use it to negotiate a plea bargain with the authorities. Walt tells Skyler his life as a drug kingpin was for himself rather than his family, stating that he did it because he enjoyed it, was good at it, and it made him feel alive. Skyler allows Walt to see Holly one last time while she sleeps. After leaving, Walt watches from afar as Walter Jr. (RJ Mitte) arrives home from school. Walt meets with Jack and his men at their hideout, where Jesse is still performing slave labor for the gang in an adjacent Quonset hut. Jack refuses Walt's offer and orders him killed. Walt insults Jack for partnering with Jesse, but Jack has Jesse brought to them in chains to show Walt they aren't partners and Jesse is his prisoner. Walt tackles Jesse and uses his car keys to remote-fire the machine gun (which he has connected to a pivoting turret rigged to the car key's remote unlock button) from his car. Jack's men are killed in the barrage of gunfire and Jack and Walt are wounded. Todd and Jesse are unharmed. As Todd stares out the window in amazement at the now-empty machine gun pivoting in its turret, Jesse strangles and kills Todd with the chain attached to his handcuffs. Walt takes Jack's gun and kills Jack, despite Jack's insistence that Walt will never find the stolen money if he does. Walt gives the gun to Jesse and asks Jesse to kill him. Jesse notices Walt's wound and refuses, telling Walt to kill himself. As Jesse and Walt leave Jack's house, Walt answers a call on Todd's phone from a visibly ill Lydia. He informs her that her business partners are dead and asks if she's feeling a little under the weather, revealing that he had earlier put ricin in her stevia at the coffee shop. Jesse and Walt, having made peace, nod farewell to one another. Jesse flees in Todd's El Camino, crying and screaming with relief. Walt enters the lab and smiles nostalgically as he admires the equipment, holding a gas mask and rubbing a kettle. His fingers leave a bloody trail on the kettle as he falls to the floor, with Badfinger's "Baby Blue" playing in the background. The camera slowly rises over the scene as Walt dies from his bullet wound and the police rush in with guns drawn to find his motionless body. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Felina (Breaking Bad)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
