Was the way he could make things right. In the end he was living with an immense amount of guilt. So much so that he thought he'd be happier spending the rest of his life in prison than getting out in just 7 years.

Not sure when he changed his mind about the plea, people seem to think that it was when he learned Kim might be sued, but someone on another board pointed out that he would have been fine in ADX Colorado as he knew he'd be a celebrity there. That's where he'd want to end up. And he was there for what looked like not very long and already had a good gig baking bread in the kitchen, those types of gigs in prison are hard to come by.

I think he could have found other ways to protect Kim. He just wanted her in court to hear him confess, do what was right, and come out as Jimmy.

She was amazing. After the episode where Howard died, it was really just tying up loose ends, it was bound to be a little bit of a let down after all of the Cartel/Gus/Mike business was concluded.
