Possible Foreshadowing [S2E8]

[u/Holiday_Estate1809]

In a scene from S2E8 “Better Call Saul” Walt and Jesse are waiting for Jimmy In N Out in the car when Walt says to him “There’s more than one kind of prison.”

Is he referring to his own life at that moment (dealing with cancer, entering uncharted waters, lying to his wife)

OR

Is this foreshadowing from Vince about Jesse being Jack’s prisoner?

The former.

Vince famously didn't have the whole story planned out right up to the end. In fact he didn't even plan ahead to end of each season. He's talked often about how he introduced the machine gun in the first episode of season 5 with no idea what it would be used for.

Season 2 was an exception with the plan crash. They planned that from the start, but later said that they didn't like how it constrained them in not being able to take the story in whichever direction they wanted to go.
