This is being sent to all the people whose email addresses I saved. I really hate to be the bearer of bad news (or good news, depending on how you look at it) but I have to admit, the spoilers are not legitimate, except for the first episode, which was taken from another source. It started as a joke. I decided to jot down a quick ending to Breaking Bad to show my friends so I could try to convince they I had obtained the spoilers. That never happened. After writing down some quick summaries (the exact summaries you have seen), I decided to post them on reddit to see if anyone would buy it, rather than tell my friends. So that is what I did. It started out as a harmless joke and boredom. After I received a few emails asking me for the final episodes, I felt like the joke would not go anywhere. So I told those few people what they wanted to know. I woke up in the morning to a couple hundred emails. I answered a few and started to feel bad as people thanked me. I saw that the spoilers had spread across the internet and people were polarized by them. Some believed them, some didn't. At this point, I felt like an idiot for letting it go so far. I ignored the emails for a bit, refusing to give out the fake finale episode. There were even a few people who I gave a really terrible ending just to satisfy them. The truth is, I started writing a summary for the finale, but couldn't figure it out in a way that would satisfy me. That's only something Vince and his team could do. I even noticed some people pretending to be me and giving out the final episode summary to others which apparently included Jesse running away with baby Holly after everyone died. What the hell? After I saw your article and Rian Johnson's reaction to the spoilers, I felt like absolute ****. I realized that this wasn't just a joke. What if some people had been turned off by the show due to my terrible spoilers? What if by some coincidence I got a few plot points correct and ruined the surprise (unintentionally) for some people? What if some people questioned the integrity of the Breaking Bad staff because they thought someone had leaked it? And not to mention, I had written these extremely predicable plot lines that were honestly an embarrassment to Breaking Bad. Sure, some people thought they were good but in truth, I just wrote the most predictable plot up until the end of Granite State when I dug myself into a hole and decided to poison Jesse. So no, the spoilers are not real. And I feel bad, even if it just started as fan fiction and a "harmless" joke. I'm really sorry to Vince and all of the Breaking Bad team for my actions. It was just a dumb thing to do and I almost feel as though I lost my privilege to watch this awesome show. I would like to think they would forgive me but who knows? I did enjoy writing the spoilers and predicting where the show would go, but the bottom line is that no one can match the writing talent of the Breaking bad Staff. If anything, I should have posted it as a prediction or fan fiction. Sorry if you actually read all of this, it was probably a drag to read. But feel free to let people know that the spoilers were indeed, fake. Feel free to send hate mail if you're super pissed, I'll read it all. All the best, Ben Dover
