"For a long time, we didn't know anything about Breaking Bad showrunner Vince Gilligan's new series. We knew it starred Better Call Saul's Rhea Seehorn, we knew it was called , and we knew it had something to do with "a cure for happiness." Even the first looks at the series were wordless clips of Seehorn's character taking out her trash or looking at a sign in Vegas."
"But now, Apple TV is releasing actual trailers showing just what is going on: Seehorn plays Carol, the sole human, or at least one of the few remaining humans, not absorbed into a hive mind. In the latest trailer, we see just how far this goes, including a connection to Vince Gilligan's most beloved work. Check out the trailer below:"
"In the trailer, Carol is the sole passenger on a plane presumably being piloted by a member of the hive mind, and she chooses to sit in the far back of the cabin. But the most interesting part of this shot isn't Carol's seat selection, but the very seats themselves. The headrests are embroidered with the brand name "Wayfarer," a fictional airline that may sound familiar to Breaking Bad fans."
Trailers reveal Rhea Seehorn as Carol, apparently the sole unassimilated human among many absorbed into a hive mind. Scenes include Carol as the only passenger on a plane, choosing a rear seat while surrounded by hive-controlled crew or passengers. The plane's headrests show the brand name "Wayfarer," linking the series to the fictional airline from Breaking Bad's Season 3 plane crash. The shared brand raises questions about whether the stories occupy the same fictional universe, whether Wayfarer survived the crash's fallout, and whether characters or doppelgangers from Breaking Bad could appear within the hive mind.
