Pinkman approaches him for help with vanishing but Ed initially rejects the request, citing past transgressions between them - an unpaid “disappearance” attempt that Jesse bailed on during the show. While in isolation, Ed also was the bearer of bad news, the one to inform White that his wife Skyler had stopped using her married name.Įd himself couldn’t disappear from making a cameo in the movie. He also did the same for lawyer Saul Goodman. Or, at least took him to a secluded cabin in northern New Hampshire. After White paid for a new identity and location, Ed helped him disappear. One may remember Ed from the original show by his cryptic nickname “The Disappearer.” While he only appeared in one episode of the show’s last season, he played a pivotal role.Īs an owner of a vacuum repair shop, Ed proved that he can more than just literal dirt disappear. During the body disposal, Pinkman was gifted with a chance to kill Alquist but he choked (while Alquist tried to persuade him with a pepperoni pizza). He brought a traumatized Pinkman out of his cage so that he could help him with a favor: the disposal of another person Alquist killed to cover up his crimes. Alquist is prominently featured in the movie in flashback form. When White rescued Pinkman during the show’s season finale of the show, Pinkman strangled him to death without hesitation.īut, he did hesitate to kill Alquist previously, as flashbacks featured in the movie show. That gang, Alquist included, caged and tortured Pinkman for months as they kept him as their captive meth cooker. He ended up callously shooting a child who stumbled onto the heist, with no remorse.Īlquist is also the nephew of a white supremacist gang leader. He gained the trust of both White and Pinkman in the show, so much so they hired him to help them with a train heist during Season 5, where his true sociopath colors showed. While he was killed in the season finale of the show, he wreaked plenty of havoc before his death. His politeness and soft-mannered way of speaking makes his callous nature and crimes seem just that much more diabolical. Speaking of sociopathic, the new movie brought back one of the show’s worst sociopaths, Todd Alquist.
