Abstract
Breaking Bad ran for five seasons. This article examines five negotiations, one from each season, each featuring Walter White. The close readings provided show how the five negotiations demonstrate and/or disrupt foundational negotiation concepts or skills. The Article then suggests some possible takeaways for negotiators and analysts and concludes with a brief thought about ethical implications in negotiation theory and practice.
