Isn't this the only story that's left, though? We have to see Walt and Hank do battle.
The marriage is over. Walt can run a drug empire. Walt has killed his two most powerful adversaries. We've seen Jesse's story - he's Dorian Gray's portrait.
Walt is too calculating not to figure out what he needs to do to cover his tracks. The mistake had to be emotional. That book meant a lot to him - it's his trophy with Gus. He had a blind spot with respect to what that inscription would mean to Hank.
Now we have to see him with his hair back, his cancer out of remission, and on the run from Hank and the FBI. What will be interesting is what he will have learned from the journey. Will we feel sad or indifferent? Will Walt still be the guy capable of poisoning a child to secure a key loyalty? Or something entirely different?
As long as he doesn't end up healthy and back in Skylar's arms, I'm looking forward to next year.
