Expanded question to focus on motivation behind the lack of this scene.

May 11, 2021 at 18:58 comment added GeoffAtkins I've edited my answer with as much rationalisation as can be demonstrated from Gilligan's own words, as to why the movie is the way the movie is.
May 11, 2021 at 18:46 comment added GeoffAtkins @NapoleonWilson - I do get where you're coming from, El Camino is about Jesse's escape, not from actual imprisonment but from his past. But, understanding the movie is entirely predicated on understanding the build up and events of the finale of Breaking Bad. From a filmmakers point of view, I suppose you want to know your audience understands what is happening. My own answer doesn't address that, and I suppose it should.

May 10, 2021 at 22:47 comment added Napoleon Wilson If anything, the question could explain a little more why it should have been shown. Really as it currently stands it's asking why some random event wasn't depicted and I agree that's kind of nonsensical. If that event is so important for the story, then maybe that belongs into the question's motivation.

May 10, 2021 at 13:40 comment added iandotkelly @Joachim but if someone watched El Camino without previously watching Breaking Bad then they might be confused about this. I can see why its getting downvoted, but I can also see why you might find the lack of this obviously important event to be puzzling.
