I've seen other people say this on the internet, but I think Walt goes into witness protection, and becomes Malcolm's Dad.

I think...
Jesse comes out filthy rich with everyone and everything around him he could possibly care about being destroyed, in 30 years he'll be an empty old amusement park owner or something.
Walt joins a monastery after ascending to the peak of his crime lord power, eliminating every threat and tying up every loose end, though not necessarily in a way which would keep his name clean.
Hank kills himself like the pathetic bastard he is.
Skyler and Marie move on and try to forget like all wakeswept hoes.
Saul gets his own reality TV show to get the various criminals to leave him be.

I think Jessie is going to be dead. He was actually supposed to die in the 1st series, but they decided to keep him around. I think Todd's crew may well kidnap Jessie and force him to make the high end Meth that they can't achieve, and once they can do it themselves, Todd will end up disposing of Jessie's corpse in a barrel of Hydrofluoric acid, just like Walt showed him with Mike.
Why did they kill Mike off, what an awesome character, good actor too. Not a handsome man, but he has an amazing head, that guy was made to play an Orc. I think I liked Mike so much because he reminds me of someone I knew, a genuinely frightening person, who never loses his temper or mouths off making threats, but who will put you in the ground if you cross him.
I think Hank will lay off Walt, once he realises that he himself is implicated due to the huge sum the Whites gave to pay for his Treatment when he was fucked up.
Did you know that they are planning to make a spinoff about Saul Goodman. I may just have to get me a "Better call Saul" Tee-shirt.

I can see it now. Saul gets his own spin off and Todd and his crew are the main characters.
I'm not totally understanding what happened to Jesse when he was waiting for that van that Saul arranged to pick him up. Jesse obviously had an "Ah-HA!" moment there, it happened when he was looking at his cigarette pack, that I thought still held the ricin cigarette. I think I might have missed an episode or something, or maybe had a lengthy brain fart at an important part of a past episode.
Can anybody explain how Jesse's mind put it all together?

Thats why I hate the huge pauses in this show...
u forget what has happened
Jesse saw that the Fat guy is really good at stealing.
So he figured it out the he had stolen the ricin cigarette before.
That Walter made him do it.
And that the kid was poisoned by Walter,
not by Gustavo ( how Walter wanted Jesse to think )
I actually had to look it up to get it all... A bit clumsy, but it was intense atleast
It was a good episode thou, cant wait for the next one

Saul goes out, tells his security guard where the weed is as he doesn't want Jesse to keep it.
Security guy steals it. Jesse waiting wants a joint, realizes it is stolen, puts one and one together.
Walt poisoned Brook, Jesse's girlfriend's son with a plant extract to make Jesse think that Gus stole the ricin and poisoned Brook.
After that Walt tells Jesse to leave her as its too dangerous for her and the kid to be around him.
Jesse was happy to be with both of them and Walt took it away.
Shit gonna hit the fan.
Brilliant move from Walt with the confession.
Jesse is gonna come hard after Walt. Offers to Hank to testify Hank tells Jesse that he can't go after Walt because of the confession.
OK...here is a fairly in-depth explanation of how Jesse has his ah-ha moment, taken from this article:

UPDATE: I've gotten so many emails, tweets and comments below expressing confusion about how Jesse figured out about the cigarette swap that I decided to simply lay out the chronology as follows:
1)In "End Times," to get Jesse back on his side in the war against Gus, Walt arranges for Huell to steal the cigarette pack with the ricin cigarette out of Jesse's pocket and replace it with a different pack. Saul calls Jesse to his office on shaky reasons, and Huell pats him down in a way that gets Jesse's attention. Walt doesn't use the ricin to poison Brock, but rather a lily of the valley plant that will have a similar but less dangerous effect on the boy.
2)When Jesse hears that Brock has been poisoned, he realizes that the ricin cigarette is missing, then (correctly) puts two and two together that Huell stole it, on Walt's orders. He storms into Walt's house and threatens to kill him for poisoning Brock; Walt convinces Jesse that it was Gus, not him, who wanted to hurt the boy — specifically so Jesse would come to this conclusion and murder Walt for him — and that Tyrus must have lifted the cigarettes from Jesse's locker at the Super Lab. Jesse accepts that Mr. White would never hurt a child, whereas Gus has a history of hurting children, and lets go of the theory about Huell.
3)Doctors later figure out that Brock was poisoned by a lily of the valley, not ricin, making Jesse doubt Walt's theory about Gus manipulating Jesse into shooting Walt, and leaving him to wonder what really happened to the ricin cigarette. Walt stages a phony search of Jesse's house and plants a fake cigarette (containing salt, not ricin) inside Jesse's Roomba. None of this sits well with Jesse, but he once again believes Mr. White.
4)Over the course of season 5, starting around the murder of Drew Sharp, Jesse has begun to realize that he shouldn't believe anything Walt says. Walt claims to be broken up over Drew's death, then whistles while he works. Walt claims that Mike left town alive, when Jesse knows that Walt would've never taken out Mike's guys unless Mike was dead. Walt gives Jesse a whole song and dance about how leaving town will be good for Jesse, when Jesse knows that it will be even better for Walt.
5)Having been primed to disbelieve any word out of Walt's mouth, Jesse goes to Saul's office, lights up a joint and gets scolded by Saul, who knows his relocation expert won't pick up anyone who's high. Saul orders Huell to again pick Jesse's pocket to get rid of the marijuana.
6)At the pick-up spot, a nervous Jesse reaches for his pot, and can't find it. He frantically checks all his pockets, but all he finds is a cigarette pack. Staring at the cigarette pack, and realizing Huell dipped into his pocket without him noticing, Jesse realizes that his first suspicions about the ricin cigarette were correct, and that Mr. White was manipulating him into turning against Gus, endangering Brock's life in the process.
That the ricin wasn't actually used on Brock is beside the point. Jesse knew from the beginning that Huell had picked his pocket, and that he must have done it on Mr. White's orders. He has been thinking about this often in the months since it happened — far more often and more intensely than those of us watching the show have, and in a more compressed time period. When he realizes Huell picked his pocket, and stares at another crumpled cigarette pack, everything clicks into place about the events of "End Times" — including how convenient it was that this terrible thing happened to Brock, which turned Jesse back into Walt's ally, at the exact moment Walt needed an ally against Gus — and he goes on the warpath against Saul, Huell and that asshole Mr. White.
You may disagree with whether Jesse would have put all the pieces together like that, but that's what happened.
I also heard about a video mash up of all the parts of the story that explain Jesse's ah-ha moment, but I'm having a hard time locating it. I'll post it if I find it.

Here is a link to the page that is supposed to have a video mash up of the whole ricin cig thing. For some reason, the video isn't showing itself for me....this is a recurring problem when I view the Huffington Post, sometimes pages that are supposed to have videos just don't show.
If anybody wants to try going to that page and see if they can see the video, and if it is on Youtube, maybe post it here, that would be excellent.
