5 to 10 years later, Skyler has remarried...
...Donald Margolis, (John De Lancie, Q from Stsr Trek lol) the former Air Traffic Controller who was the father of Jesse's girlfriend who OD'd.
Surprise! He survived his suicide attempt! ... He's had reconstructive surgery, changed his name... he can only speak through a vocoder, but he has genuinely found new meaning in life working at first as a counselor, eventually working his way up to an administrator of a fairly small, but low cost sort of rehab / mental health retreat/clinic.
Their relationship is of course basically built on similar levels of traumas ultimately leading to similar levels of a no bullshit attitude, yet at the same time, determined to hit the reset button and move on, live life..., but they are also totally unaware of how directly they are connected, with both having... not really directly mentioned too much about their recent past.
Skyler has been using her maiden last name, and has never at all mentioned anything about Walter. She was married to abusive man, she got the courage to leave, that guy disappeared, etc etc.
Together they raise Holly, out of a different home in say... Reno? Albuquerqe? Tuscon? Colorado Springs?... Skylar runs a different car wash now.
Flynn (who likewise has officially changed both his first and last name, and goes along with Skylar's fake story about Walter) has gone to a community college and gotten some kind of Comp Sci degree and is doing decently well for himself as some kind of an entry/mid level programmer or db admin or some such, able to afford the specialized car and an ADA compliant apartment... he pops in from time to time to visit mom and new dad... but he is still totally unaware that Walt threatened the Whitmers into putting aside millions for him in a trust fund.
At some point, they approach Flynn with some kind of offer and concept for some kind of ... medical tech startup.
... I am not quite sure how to write the next part, but at some point... well, all you have to do is have Jesse enter the plot either directly or remotely, and probably at that point, shit gets insane fairly quickly.
