After that, viewers return to the final scene left off in episode 12. Jimmy (as Gene) is running away from Marion’s home in Gene’s timeline when Marion learns who he is.

Saul is sentenced to seven and a half years in jail, but he also wants to select the facility and the Wing where he will be housed.

The Breaking Bad timeline is revisited in the series’ final episode. Walter is seen with Saul. What would you do if you had a time machine? It is the same question he asked Mike, which he also asks Walter.

Viewers then get back to the present, where Jimmy is being bused to a federal jail. He observes the sweat of the prisoner in front of him. He turns around and is recognized as “Better Call Saul” by the man.
