What If Walter and Jesse Didn’t Use The Magnet? | A Breaking Bad Story 

Here's one: what if Jesse never dropped charges against hank?

What if Walter Was Black. Walter Black

I'm glad you didn't make the device plan work, as Mike debunked it immediately

Lydia would have still been a potential liability. Her fear of being discovered by the DEA would always be there, but with Jesse and Walt out of the business, Mike could have handled that last loose end on his own if it ever became a problem.

Walt was his own worst enemy. He got the money for his family. They were good to go. He had even gotten away with it. But he just couldn't leave it alone. He was hooked on meth himself. He was addicted to the cook, rather than the use.

What if after Walter died in felina,woke up again in the beginning of the show with all his memories

What if Hank found the listening device plugged into his computer?

This is most interesting and unusual alternate ending of Breaking Bad.

Saul do you know a guy that specializes in demolition? Well I used to, but he’s gone underground no one’s heard from him. You guys ever heard of…… Werner Ziegler

What if Saul went to Gus’s instead of Kim

Suggestion: What if Walt met Gus earlier? (Instead of the car wash, Walt’s second job was at an Los Pollos Hermanos.)

Very enjoyable as usual. I gotta say at 6:04 I kind of thought that sometimes the characters can be a bit monotonic and same-y in their reasonableness and chillness. Especially with him fanning away the cigarette smoke, that kind of increases the tension and I may like to see that tension build; I kind of expected: Walter sternly stares at Saul before responding in disappointed staccato, "Okay, while that may be a possibility, you..." Walter pauses and looks at the room around him, spotting Jesse and Saul's clueless expressions as they hang on his words. He tenses his fists. "YOU DON'T LEAVE THINGS LIKE THAT UP TO CHANCE!" Walter shouts with brisk ardor. In the video's take, I think he may sound more like a young street person than an old jaded bottled-up egotistical high school teacher. Like it sounds like something that Jesse or Badger could say. "Okay you might be onto something Saul, but I can't... I can't just leave something like that up to chance, because... what if it's not?" Ignore that if you like; just one random internet person's idea :)

Finally a story where walt doesn't die.

Easily the best ending for everyone

Really well written, awesome job :) I have a story suggestion: What if Walter didn't sabotage Gale and ended up working with him

It's hard to do Walter's intelligence justice, but I think you did pretty good here. I think him trying to bomb the police station is a bit out there, and it probably wouldn't be discussed exactly that way, but this is an entertaining watch

Oooo soon as I saw the title I immediately clicked. Stoked for this one bro

Awesome!! It was great to watch the live chat!! I said howdy but I don't think you saw it!! Hopefully you do more live videos

5:17 did you just make a god dam joker references from the movie? Nice!

Been binging tf out these what ifs 😂 I appreciate you 💯🔥

What if Walter won the lottery with that ticket he bought to mark where he buried his money?

What if janes dad had jane and jesse arrested when he finds out about the two doing heroin again

walt's got some serious ocd, going through all that work just so that he could cook meth for fun lmao where does he dump all that meth though? scratch that, what if the dea finds it and is just immensely confused at how much of it there is just *lying around* in an abandoned chicken farm good idea for a sequel vid where hank talks to walt about it and walt, sweating bullets, plays it cool and just lets him keep talking

What if Jesse never found out there was a tracker on his car in el Camino ? I’d assume he’d very quickly get arrested but there’s definitely a story to tell there

But wouldn't Hank still eventually find the WW book on the toilet?

What if Walt Jr was stabbed during the Ozymandias fight

what if Walter had kept quiet during dinner with hank?

What if Walter’s bomb never went off?

Suggestion for a future what if… We all know Mike wants to see a future where his granddaughter gets the money he’s worked for. Hank and Steve Gomez mention how if he tells them what he knows about Fring’s operation, Kaylee may be able to keep some of that money. WHAT IF… Mike actually does negotiate a deal. He mentions how, as a security consultant for Madrigal Electromotive, he was put in charge of overseeing the restaurant division. This resulted in several stipends being attached to his paychecks. (This would be the laundered money Mike received. If the money was laundered unbeknownst to Mike, completely legitimately) Mike never touched his money, which comes directly from Madrigal, but the same can’t be said about the 11 other guys who are being paid off by different offshore accounts set up by Fring. If Mike’s story checks out about not knowing about the drug side of Madrigal’s operation, which is something that should checkout - per the scenes in BCS of Mike actually being a security consultant - then perhaps Saul could negotiate on Mike’s behalf to claim that it is Mike’s money that he earned. He didn’t know that the money was drug money, and he was doing work for Madrigal. Perhaps this money could stay with Mike? There’s obviously things to consider, but I think it’s an interesting enough change to warrant a video. Either way, love the video!

What if Walt never poisoned Brock?

what if walter never got revenge on jack

What if Jesse wasn't a chick magnet?

What if Jessie was caught during the pilot (but Walter still attempted to cook meth and sell it). Think of how many times Jessies street smarts saved Walter in the early episodes.

12:01 What does IFT mean?

Jesse doesn't die, what is this? Excellent video.

What if Walters confession said Gus kidnapped him

What if Gus sent Walt’s family to Belize? ( Even with Frings warning out in the Desert walt still interferes and pays this price )

Here’s one I thought of recently I’d really like to see What if, Gus didn’t pick up on Nacho’s attempted killing of Hector/didn’t end up blackmailing him (basically what if Lalo and Nacho were fully going down that path together) Sort of gives off the vibe he may have become Boss of the North as he ends up legitimately working with Lalo with his family (more safe) than ever

These videos are like crack to me

What if hector didn't Warn tuco about the ricen in his taco/burrito

So, what if skinny pete was never in the same jail cell with tuco?

What if Walter and Jesse went to Mexico with Tuco ?

What if Hank didn't take the book when he was on toilet

Some of the what ifs videos could’ve been better writing ideas for a metastasis remake. By being a Colombian breaking bad but with some different elements to them. And even maybe have its own elements from better call Saul. Maybe Gordon comes into the show. Maybe a Colombian nacho would join up with Jose Miguel and Walter

What if Hank died in Texas to the head turtle bomb? How would that change the timeline?

What about a what if Walt told Saul about the Gray Matter company earlier?

what if walter was english teacher????

What if Walt never got involved in the first place?

I don't know if this is a plot hole in this scenario, but what about the Walt Whitman book Walter had in his bathroom

What if Ted died when he slipped on the carpet?

the good ending

What if Walt was black

Walt does seem like the kind of person who would cook meth just for fun.

I've noticed that the happiest endings for Mike involves Gus dying either by Walt of the cartel.

Mike: Good Ending+ Jesse: Good Ending+ Walter: Neutral Ending

What if the confession tape was true? It should start off with Hank and Gus partnering up.

In this scenario the DEA would have no reason to assume that Heisenberg was behind Gus’s death and the destruction of the lab. They probably assume that one of the now unidentifiable burnt corpses in the destroyed lab belonged to Heisenberg given that the blue meth would disappear after the event. They probably assume that Gus death and the lab’s destruction was caused by a rival or a former disgruntled employee of Gus.

I love how the most clever idea that Jesse came up with leading to the most fallout in the story - while his second most clever idea (creating a battery) likely saved their lives … truly poetic.

That is so in character for walt. No empire, no one behind him, just the him and his product. I do have an idea though: What if Gus didn't survive the poisoning? He was the first one to drink the poison afterall.

I know it's kind of a meme ATP but i would be very interesting to see how things would shake out if Hank didn't poop and find out the truth

Love your content! Suggestion: What if Tuco killed hank on their encounter?

I'm glad you had the bombs fail. Mike had told them that bombs wouldn't work.

What if Lalo killed Kim before she intervened during the "Tell me again" scene?

They would build a robot

So I have a video suggestion what if Drew Sharp was a threat? (Hear me out) So like in another one of your videos Todd and Kuby switch places during the train heist but during the heist when the Good Samaritan shows up when Todd is distracting the train drivers, Todd decides to kill the train drivers and the Samaritan. Walter Jesse and Kuby stop after hearing the gunshots and Mike tells them what happened, Jesse and Mike says they should leave but Walter argues they should finish but behind them is Drew Sharp who heard gun shots and gets a good look at the three (maybe even hears names like Walter, Jesse, Mike, Todd etc) but either way he knows something is wrong and drives off to report what he seen to the police. Thoughts?

This is the "For the love of the game" ending for Walter Hank, Mike, Jesse, Walter, Saul all alive and safe This is the best happy ending for breaking bad, canon or what if

What if Walter sold his body instead of meth?

I LOVE the emphasis Walter puts on the first B in Bomb would always make me laugh

WHAT IF Walter's cancer was different? What if it was skin cancer? Prostate cancer? A brain tumor and so on?

You have failed to stop me Batman Now Gotham will Fall

The only issue i have with this is that walter could have still kept selling meth through todds uncle jack or saul could have likely found another way to get it sold.Walts product was special and there was still a market to fill.

I think it be a really interesting part 2 to this... Walter would keep that Meth he cooked up at the end. N eventually he would pass... so it be a decent story of Hank finding this Meth in amongst the possessions after Walter passes away. N the peices come together though he is long out of the game.

Holy shit, the rare good ending for everyone involved. Good stuff man, keep up the good work! My own suggestion: What if Juan Bolsa was Gus' ally, starting from before BCS? Throughout both series, Bolsa gives off the impression of an incompetent guy getting played by everyone and in particular giving Gus far too much leeway and trust, but what if it was a front, working as an inside man in order to deliberately help Gus' plans to eventually overthrow the cartel, and get some power for himself? Might be a bit of a long shot, but we don't know *that* much about Bolsa so there's surely a lot of wiggle room with him to work with, and I think it'd be fun to throw a spotlight on whats otherwise a super overlooked character.

What if Saul managed to change his identity at the end of season 6

What if Jesse did have a metal ring at the the end of his...?

I think a cool what if would be "What if Max and Gus got started at the same time as Jesse and Walter."

What if Walt Jr/Flynn accepted Gus Fring's part time job offer at los pollos Herman's?

What if Nachos dad was willing to let the cartel use his business as a front?

So… deciding to blow up a police station led to a happy ending? I’m sorry, this is breaking bad, and vince Gillian’s cosmic karma doesn’t work that way. I would’ve personally had it that Walter lies and manipulated Jesse into thinking that the blast radius would be directed at the wall, leaving any travelling innocents with minor injuries at worst in order to get him to go along with it, becuase as it it’s unrealistic he’d stick with a plan this dangerous to innocents as is. Once the walls blows up, it kills one or two bystanders, leaving Jesse to go on another meltdown about his involvement in such. Basically acting as a much earlier drew sharp incident. He’s disgusted with Walter but this isn’t Mike’s death or Gale shooting levels, only Drew Sharp levels, so he isn’t throwing money out the window. The plan still fails, but luckily the laptop is encrypted. Jesse decides to leave the game and is disgusted by Walter for his lies about the blast radius. Walter reacts in a similiar way as did in our timeline, petty. Walter goes on to secure more methylamine by learning about the train, another supply depot or another crew outside Albuquerque, bringing Todd along to be his new partner for all of it. (Not particularly realistic but just for the sake of him still being able to cook, if they were able to manage it as a ragtag group in season 1 then Season 5 Heisenberg shouldn’t have any issues.) However due to no Lydia or Declan Walter’s empire only really exists over Albuquerque, with Todd, Todd’s associates and the few guys Saul could muster to act as distribution, leading to dramatically less profit, he’d be lucky to have 5 million by a 3 month time period. Since Mike isn’t dead Jesse isn’t throwing his money out of the window, meaning he doesn’t have police attention and so isn’t a liability, so he doesn’t need to dissapear, so he doesn’t find out about Brock’s poisoning. Walter never meets Jack but there’s no way Jack wouldn’t be aware of his nephew’s connection to a drug peddler like Walt, so I still think he’d be keeping tabs on him. When Walter gets his cancer coming back he isn’t compelled to leave, as he only has about 5 million, and his ego can’t let him admit that Gus’s cut to Walt would’ve made him far wealthier if he just stuck with Gus, no, he has to outperform him and provide for his family fully, he isn’t going to sell out for pennies, and so he continues on with his drug empire just in time for Hank to find out, leading Hank to bug Walter’s car right to the fumigation, all of it. Far larger evidence in favour of Hank than the medical bills, which is all Walter would have against him. By the time Walter notices it’s too late and most of this is handed over to the DEA, and he goes in for questioning. Todd goes in as well as any guys they were using for distributioning, and Jack gets his guys to stab Walter and all of his guys for distribution in the prison block so they can’t speak out against Todd, all in a similiar fashion to how they handled Gus’s guys in our timeline. They frame it as Todd barely escaping the last execution, so he isn’t suspected as being part of the attacks. Far away Mike and Jesse both learn of the brutal murder of supposed drug Kingpin Walter White, Mike raises a spiteful toast, Jesse is sorrowful for a second, but realises Walter dug his own grave with his actions, turning off the TV. Todd would have to serve a lot of time in prison but due to lack of evidence can get off as a lower level consigliere to Heisenberg then what he actually was. He tries to mention Jesse Pinkman but he is long gone from town after the secure laptop situation, and not returning due to the blast radius lie from Walter, so Jesse is safe. If Jimmy met with Walter for his cut while his car was bugged he’s screwed and right into the DEA with him, but since he doesn’t really have any knowledge of Todd this would save him in the long run. Jack however, not knowing of how much he knows adds him to the hitlist as the last real target, but Jimmy narrowly escapes as Jacks crew overstretches themselves for so many targets in a two minute time window, as we’ll say Walter and his distrubutors outnumber the amount of Gus’s guys, which was a tight enough operation in our timeline, so Jimmy narrowly escapes and is rushed into protective witness custody (again Vince’s cosmic karma, Jimmy doesn’t deserve to die, he deserves life behind bars). From there the trial goes all the same as our timeline, but the charges are lower due to Jimmy only be associated to small-time Albuquerque Kingpin Walter White’s local empire, not a nationwide one, ending up with 57 years once he confesses to Howard and all the other crimes he’s committed, upping his sentence dramatically from what he was initially slated to get. Jack would leave him alone owing to the fact he has said nothing about Todd in his full confession, plus the protective witness custody being impossible to break through. So I’m an ironic way without realising it, that confession of everything Jimmy did saved his life. Either that or Jimmy is lucky enough to avoid Walter visiting him for his cut, and is spared from the DEA. He has two choices, stay as Saul Goodman in Alberquerque, in hopes Walter or the distributors don’t spill, a risk which ends up being true as they are all stabbed to death soon after, leaving Jimmy consequenceless or go on the run just in case. I believe it’s more in character for him to go on the run, due to paranoia and also the fact I always got the impression he wanted to start a new life after the empty existence of Saul Goodman, he was always obsessed with the idea of disappearing, he talked about it a lot in breaking bad Season 4. He wouldn’t have to run all the way to Omaha though, as Heisenberg would be a far smaller case worldwide. Where he’d go otherwise I’m not sure. But it’d likely be something flashier and bigger than the Cinnabon life, as there’s no one really out to get him, especially once he realises the law isn’t onto him and all of his former business partners have been dealt with, which may lead him into settling down, as his new life wouldn’t be as black and white so to speak, but I believe Jimmy being this far into embracing Saul Goodman would still end up with him committing more crimes and eventually getting caught for god knows what, but maybe not for even necessarily being Saul Goodman, as Saul Goodman isn’t anywhere near as large of a manhunt, so he may only go in for committing minor crimes under his new alias, leading to no confession and no massive jailtime. If this were an actual episode/finale it’d probably be best to leave it ambiguous, kind of like Jesse’s ending in Breaking Bad, as Jimmy gets a clean slate again, and it’s up to the audience to decide if he reforms and settles down or the clean slate will also fail and the cycle will repeat itself just his as the clean slate Chuck gave him did throughout Better Call Saul. Note: still a great episode and I enjoyed it! But I felt like everyone getting off so easily didn’t feel very breaking bad so had a crack at writing my own, and hey if the still-cooking-through-the-cancer idea halfway through could make a good episode then go ahead to use it. Note 2: I’ve had to edit this quite a bit for inconsistencies eg I said Walter still kills the witnesses but without Lydia to get the names or a reason to kill them as the offshore account isn’t found, this point is pointless and impractical, or better plot points, eg instead of Walt’s cancer not coming back he stays in the game for his ego, or the entire Jimmy storyline I just edited in right now, etc. Due to a mixture of comment feedback and me thinking it over myself, and for any feedback point out inaccuracies, thank you. This may lead to contradictions in the rest of the comment but I’ve checked over and it seems fine, but if you spot any while reading that is why.

What if Jesse killed Saul? (What if Jesse discovered the truth about Brock's poisoning, confronted Saul and after he confessed him a truth, Jesse in a fit of anger shot Saul in the head)

Hmm, I don't know. This honestly appears too good to be true if Vince chose not to go with Jesse's unorthodox plan after seeing the ending. But still a great video, Merge. 👍

A surprising good ending from the heisenverse very nice

What if Walt never went on the ride along with Hank? 😂

Love this one and interestingly enough whether Mike left or not really wouldn’t change much as he wouldn’t work with Walter either way all that would happen is they don’t waste time bombing the police station

Do what if Walt turned himself in during Granite State, you can do either at the start when Saul recommended him to turn himself in and to confess to everything, or at the end when he accepted defeat in New Hampshire and called the police before he changed his mind after he saw the interview with Gretchen and Elliot

Wow, a happy ending for literally everyone? We’re truly breaking new ground here. Good stuff!

Now it makes sense why you made the video, a possibility where everyone alive at that point of the show could have gotten what they wanted without anymore deaths and torment as of Jesse's case

What if Tyrus found the explosive on the wheelchair when he was searching Hector's room? I don't know how he missed that in the actual episode. Gus probbably would have won in this scenario.

Funny enough, Walt's plan did work but really as icing on the cake. If anything, this was a pretty happy ending all things considered.

please never stop making these.

What if Magnet use The Walter and Jesse? | A Breaking Metal Story

Scenario I’d love to see is what if Gaff killed Jesse/what if Mike didn’t save Jesse in time when he was nearly snipped in the desert.

Would anyone here be willing to help my list common tropes from these videos? Here are some i've noticed: Jesse getting a bad ending means the rest of the cast gets a happy(ier) ending/Jesse getting a happy ending means the majority of rest of the cast gets a bad ending. Mike gets a happy ending in a way that is dependent on Gus dying. Something in the story goes Walt's way that has the unintended consequence that is family gets murdered(What if Walt got his perfect Death?/What if Walt outsmarted Hank and Jesse?)

One very important thing you forgot to address in this story, Mike's 9 guys who are in lockup. That's the whole reason Mike agreed to work with Walter in the first place. Without the income from the cooks, Mike has no means of paying off his guys meaning they flip, meaning Mike will never get to pay her grandaughter which was the whole damn point. If Mike was reluctantly gonna work with Walt for that reason in the original timeline, why would that be different in this timeline?

Good What if video! I knew destroying the encrypted laptop would expose more potential leads for DEA.

What if Jimmy had electromagnetic hypersensitivity instead of chuck

An Happy End would be nice tbh ….but than it wouldn’t be ‚breaking bad ‚

Walter doing that final cook in Gus’s former farm just for the chemistry made me feel happy. Walt did something he loved without hurting anyone.

What if Anton Chigurh was in the breaking bad verse

I kinda believe Walt would reach out to the DEA to produce schedule 1 substances for research/academic purposes and work for them. It’d also let him keep an eye on any developments with Gus’s empire. The “godfather of MDMA” was approached to do the same thing. Maybe he’d rekindle his friendship with Elliot and Gretchen, too.
