- Jesse: You know he's not gonna be happy.
- Mike Ehrmantraut: No. I suspect he won't. Only you can decide what's best for you, Jesse. Not him, not me.
- Jesse: I'm out.
- [pause]
- Jesse: So what are you gonna do with all that money?
- Mike Ehrmantraut: Same thing I do with all the other money. How 'bout you, teenage retiree? You'll be livin' the dream.
- Jesse: Not sure I should stick around town.
- Mike Ehrmantraut: That's a start.
- Jesse: Nothin' really keepin' me here. Where would you go? If you were me?
- Mike Ehrmantraut: Doesn't matter, I'm not you.
- Jesse: Seriously, come on. If you were my age? Just play along. Make some conversation.
- Mike Ehrmantraut: Alaska.
- Jesse: Yeah?
- Mike Ehrmantraut: Yeah. If I were your age, startin' fresh... Alaska. It's the last frontier. Up there, you can be anything you want.
- Jesse: Alaska. Start over. Start fresh.
- Mike Ehrmantraut: One could.
- Jesse: Put things right.
- Mike Ehrmantraut: No. Sorry, kid, that's the one thing you can never do.
- Walt: You're really lucky, you know that? You didn't have to wait your whole life to do something special.
- [final lines]
- Jesse: I was thinking about that thing you said about the universe. Going where the universe takes you? Right on. It's a cool philosophy.
- Jane: I was being metaphorical, it's a terrible philosophy. I've gone where the universe takes me my whole life. It's better to make those decisions for yourself.
- Skinny Pete: [from trailer] I don't know what to tell you, I haven't said like five hundred times already: I have no idea where he is. I don't know where he's headed, either. North, south, west, east, Mexico, the moon. I don't have a clue. But, yo, even if I did, I wouldn't tell you. Because I've been watching the news, same as everybody else. I've seen that little cage of his they kept him in. I heard about what all they did to him to make sure he kept cooking. So, sorry. I don't know what to tell you. But no way I'm helping you people put Jesse Pinkman back inside a cage.
- [Badger watches Skinny Pete play a driving video game]
- Badger: [laughing] Dude, you suck.
- Skinny Pete: This thing's, like, defective and shit. Think you got Cheeto dust in the controller.
- Badger: It's a bad carpenter that blames his hammer, yo.
- Skinny Pete: Whatever.
- Badger: You're apexing too early, you're apexing too early.
- Skinny Pete: I'm apexin' at the apex, bitch, don't be tellin' me how to drive and shit. You couldn't drive a two-button elevator.
- Badger: You couldn't drive Miss Daisy.
- Skinny Pete: Whatever that means. You couldn't drive a short bus full of slow kids to the zoo.
- Badger: Yeah, because I'd be too distracted by you. You'd be sittin' up front in your special helmet, tryin' to hump my leg, on account you couldn't drive Thelma and Louise off of that cliff! Apex!
- Skinny Pete: I can't apex more than I'm already apexin'!
- Badger: You drive like a blind guy with no legs.
- Skinny Pete: Dude, you - you drive like my dead grandmoms.
- Badger: That's disrespectful.
- Walt: [Talking about Jesse going to college] First step, get your GED, that's no problem.
- Jesse: What do I need a GED for? I got my diploma.
- Walt: [Surprised] Oh. Of course, yeah, right. Right, right, right.
- Jesse: Yo, you were standing right on stage when they handed it to me.
- Walt: I know, it just slipped my mind.
- Jesse: I totally graduated high school, dick!
- [Badger and Skinny Pete whisper to each other while Jesse is passed out]
- Badger: Come check out what's on TV.
- Skinny Pete: Man, what's wrong with you? I ain't watchin' no TV right now.
- Badger: [seriously] It's the news.
