Take note that this story is picking up smack in the middle of Season 5 of the AMC Show. In that light, the following plot summary contains numerous spoilers. Pay special attention to the last paragraph to be made aware of the current situation. This summary was taken from the official Breaking Bad wikia.

One year into the future, Walter White sits alone at a restaurant with his head full of hair and beard grown, he meets with Lawson, his former gun dealer, who gives him a key to a car in exchange of some money. Walt takes a pill and leaves the restaurant, approaching the car and revealing that he just bought a M60 machine gun that's hidden in the car's trunk.
Back to the present, Walt returns home after finally killing Gustavo Fring, he disposes of anything linking him to his successful plot against Gus but the laptop containing security footage of Walt is held by the police. Because Skyler White used the money Walt earned from Gus' operation to pay off Ted Beneke's IRS debt, Walt believes he has no choice but to start cooking meth again to earn back the money he lost.
Mike Ehrmantraut joins Walter and Jesse Pinkman in their new three-way partnership to begin distributing meth again, while not trusting Lydia Rodarte-Quayle, an executive with Madrigal Electromotive GmbH, the parent company of Gus' Los Pollos Hermanos. To erase the data on Gus' office laptop, the three utilize an industrial electromagnet. They then begin plans for meth manufacturing but Saul Goodman cannot locate satisfactory sites, save for one — a pest control company known as Vamonos Pest Control.
Walter and Jesse use the business's fumigation tent on random houses as a mobile laboratory. Skyler White realizes that Walter is not exactly free from his meth-making past and begins to fear for her and her children's lives because of the danger involved. She asks Marie Schrader to care for her children and resigned, with no other options, she patiently waits for Walt's cancer to come back.
Meanwhile, the Methylamine flow is disrupted, forcing Walter, Jesse, and Mike to rob a train carrying a large shipment. The heist is nearly compromised when a child spots them, but he is shot by a new hire for the heist, Todd Alquist. As the DEA begins to track Mike, and with the recent death of the child, both Jesse and Mike design a permanent exit for themselves from the business. They plan to sell their methylamine for $5 million each to Declan, a major regional meth producer and distributor.
Walt derails Jesse and Mike's scheme when he refuses to sell his share of the methylamine and uses his Heisenberg persona's infamy to cut a distribution deal with Declan and negotiate the $5 million severance for Mike. Jesse is determined to leave the business, irrespective of his financial cut, so Walter enlists Todd as his assistant cook. After the DEA closes in on Mike, he decides to leave for good, but Walter impulsively shoots him dead after a confrontation when Mike refuses to give him the names of Gus's former employees who might talk. Walt regrets the action however, when he remembers that Lydia has the names.
Walt manages to get the names from Lydia and arranges for the men to be killed by associates of Todd's uncle, a former convict with ties to the Aryan Brotherhood.
In exchange for her safety, Lydia arranges for Walt's product to be shipped to the Czech Republic using Madrigal's more obscure branches. Over the next few months, this nets Walt an extraordinary amount of money - so much that, after some pleading from Skyler, he finally decides to retire, dropping off $5 million he owed to Jesse at his door. Months later, the White family is living under one roof again.
All seems to be going well until Hank discovers a book of Walt Whitman poetry in Walt's bathroom, dedicated to "WW" by "GB". Hank, remembering a conversation with Walt regarding the initials from his earlier investigation and surmising that "GB" is Gale Boetticher, clearly sees that Walter is Heisenberg.
