미국 드라마 시리즈 Breaking Bad(total 5 season)를 기념하면서 만들어진 영화로 Aaron Paul이 시리즈 이후에 이어지는 삶을 다루며 새로운 인생을 위하여 Alaska로 향해가는 story.

 

In flashback, Jesse and Mike discuss their departure from Walt's meth business and what they will do next. Mike opines on relocating to Alaska, an idea Jesse finds amenable. Jesse expresses a desire to "make things right" but Mike warns him that is something "you can never do".

 

In the present, following the events of "Felina", Jesse flees the compound in Todd's El Camino. He goes to his friends Skinny Pete and Badger, who help hide the El Camino for the night. After cleaning up, including shaving his head, Jesse calls Old Joe to dispose of the El Camino, but Joe discovers the car has LoJack installed, and that authorities will likely be after it. Skinny Pete has Badger drive Pete's Ford Thunderbird several hours out of town, and gives Jesse Badger's Pontiac Fiero to escape town with. Pete stays with the El Camino to provide a cover story to the police.

 

Several flashbacks show Jesse in captivity under Todd at the compound. During one period, Todd took Jesse to his apartment to help dispose of the body of a cleaning lady that found his stash of money. In the present, Jesse goes to Todd's apartment, which had already been searched by police, to look for Todd's money. He spends all night tearing the apartment up, finding nothing, though he sees from a nearby apartment a news report with his parents, begging Jesse to turn himself in. He falls back against the refrigerator in frustration, only to sense something off, and finds money within the door, just as two police officers, Neil and Casey, arrive. Jesse hides as the officers search the apartment but is forced to hold them at gunpoint when they discover him. Jesse soon recognizes they are not police, but thugs also looking for Todd's money. He offers to show them where it is, as long as they split it equally. As they depart the apartment, Jesse recognizes the thugs as employees of a welding company that helped to secure him at the compound.

 

Jesse goes looking for Saul's "disappearer", vague on the specific details, but soon deduces the right vacuum store from various elements. Jesse presents Todd's cash to Ed, the disappearer, but Ed wants not only the funds to help Jesse now, but also to pay for the previous time that Jesse did not take the offer. Jesse is $1,800 short, and Ed refuses to deal with him until he has all the funds. Jesse calls his parents and feigns being willing to turn himself in, as to draw them away from the house. Finding no money, Jesse secures his father's guns and locates the welders' shop.

 

At the welders, Jesse faces Neil and Casey, asking them for the remaining funds he needs for Ed and willing to avoid violence. They refuse to give up the money, and Neil, seeing the gun in his waistband, challenges Jesse to a duel. Jesse agrees, but tricks and kills Neil by using another gun he has in his jacket, and quickly kills Casey. He forces the remaining men at gunpoint to leave their drivers' licenses and flee, then claims the remaining cash and blows up the shop to cover his tracks.

 

In a flashback, Walt and Jesse have breakfast at a hotel after one of their meth cooks.[4] Walt tells Jesse "You're really lucky, you know that? You didn't have to wait your whole life to do something special."

 

Jesse pays Ed, who smuggles him to Alaska, and directs him to the town of Haines. Jesse hands Ed a letter to mail to Brock. As Jesse drives off to start his new life, he has a final flashback to his time with Jane. He tells her how he admires that she always lets the universe take her wherever it pleases; she denies this, saying that "sometimes, it's better to make those decisions for yourself."
