From The Hollywood Reporter: “Vince Gilligan (AMC’s Breaking Bad), whose show returns with its final eight episodes in August, admitted he cried when he wrote the final words on the script to the last episode. ‘I haven’t told my crew this. I actually cried writing the end – “The end” on the last episode,’ Gilligan said. ‘I haven’t since then.’”
Vince Gilligan’s Friend: Hey man, I’m going to the taco place. You want any tac– Oh, hey, are you ok?
Vince Gilligan: [crying] Oh — Hah, no, yeah I’m fine. I don’t want any tacos. Thanks, though.
Vince Gilligan’s Friend: Are you crying?
Vince Gilligan: [crying] No. I just have bad allergies.
Vince Gilligan’s Friend: Vince Gilligan, I’ve been your friend for a long time. I know you don’t have bad allergies. What’s up, man?
Vince Gilligan: [crying] I’M FINE. LEAVE ME ALONE!
Vince Gilligan’s Friend: Hey, cut that out. I love you, Vince. I’m not going to leave you alone until you tell me what’s wrong.
Vince Gilligan: Ugh, ok, I know. I’m sorry.
Vince Gilligan’s Friend: Let it out.
Vince Gilligan: Well, I just wrote the end of Breaking Bad.
Vince Gilligan’s Friend: Aw.
Vince Gilligan: Like, literally the words “the end.” That’s why I’m crying.
Vince Gilligan’s Friend: Why, what happens?
Vince Gilligan: What?
Vince Gilligan’s Friend: At the end of Breaking Bad. What happens that’s making you cry so much?
