“Bryan would mess with me throughout the entire series,” he recalled. “I remember halfway through the second season, Bryan came up to me with such a serious look on his face and gave me this big hug,” the actor continued. Cranston then asked him if he had read the script for the next episode of the show while still looking very devastated. When Paul replied in the negative, Cranston urged him to give it a read. “He looks at me, and he gives me another hug, and says, ‘Just read it, it’s fine,’ and he just walks off.”
This has got Paul feeling dumbfounded and anxious at the same time. His initial reaction was that Jesse Pinkman would die in the next chapter, so he would promptly get the script and read it thoroughly. In the end, he realized that “he was just lying, messing with me.”
