How is their relationship?
Its, uh, tenuous, says Gilligan.
We had press folks ask us questions about, When are they going to have a happy ending?

Are they going to have a happy ending?
And theres a reason you never see that part.
Thats the boring part.
We want to see the uphill climb.
We want to see them rolling the rock up the mountain.
But it doesnt mean that they dont care for each other and love each other.
Thanks for ruining it!)
Is Kim Wexler part of theBreakingBadverse, even if we never saw her in it?
By the way, theres someone I care deeply about…
I feel like all possibilities are open, and I refuse to hear otherwise.
Asked about Jimmys motivation this season being his desire for a relationship with Kim, Odenkirk quipped: Desire?
I think hes doing pretty good, man.
We had a scene in bed eating pie.
I dont think it gets any better.
Help the children think of that.
Dont think of yourself.
For every pie you eat, we donate one pie.
Added Gould: If you call a showBatman, you dont expect it to be all about Bruce Wayne.
The last scene of the season 1 finale was written with the transformation of Jimmy into Saul in mind.
But those thoughts would change.
We dont want to see Jimmy McGill turn into Saul Goodman, said Gilligan.
We the writers, all of us, because we like Jimmy better.
I didnt know this going in to the job.
We like Jimmy better than what we know of Saul from five seasons ofBreaking Bad.
Its a wonderful documentary, says Gould.
I think thats one of the inspirations we had for these two brothers.
The producers shot a sequence during season 1 that did not appear in an episode.
But it will soon see the light of the day.
(Quipped Mando: Is that the one of Patrick coming out of the shower in slow motion?)
And its a pretty sad act of defiance…
He cant even spell out Saul Goodman.
All bets are off once we get to Omaha.
The difficulty is to not overdo it, Gilligan said.
(Thats a good one.
I love that one, cracked Odenkirk.)
This led Gilligan to reveal something tantalizing (yet also disappointing) to fans aching to see moreBadguys.
And I kind of got talked out of it, because I really wanted to do it.
Teased Gould: It killed me, though.
That would have been so great.
