Aside from finally getting some satisfying payoff from last night’s intense Season 5B premiere of AMC’s Breaking Bad, there was also a segment of the episode, “Blood Money,” where Badger’s gives his pitch for a Star Trek episode.
As Jesse, Badger, and Skinny Pete sit around Jesse’s house getting high, Badger starts describing his idea for a Star Trek script he’s written [in his mind], which centers on a pie-eating contest aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise involving the devious use of the transporter and quite a sick ending.
The folks over at Vulture has the scene animated, and you can watch it here below!

In an interview with Vulture, writer Peter Gould (who wrote “Blood Money”) said that showrunner Vince Gilligan has been telling this Star Trek story to the writers for years now. Head over to Vulture to read more about how this Trek tale got inserted into Breaking Bad.
