In an interview with EW.com, Breaking Bad creator and executive producer Vince Gilligan revealed details of the series remaining eight episodes.
"Walt has been the world's greatest liar, and I think the person he lies most capably to is himself," shares Gilligan. "So in these final eight episodes, perhaps the lies will cease to find traction and the scales will start to fall away from Walt's eyes. And when that happens, will Walt really begin to realize who he is? That's a question that we asked ourselves a lot in the writers' room this year."
Walter will also come against a host of new enemies as the show approaches its finale. "There will be antagonistic relationships aplenty," reveals Gilligan, adding: "Walt's got plenty of fight left in him. And he's got plenty of forces to fight. You met some of them. Others you haven't."
