(Remote cells)I connect one conductor’s end to one cell’s negative terminal and then it’s other end to ANOTHER cells positive terminal, why doesn’t current flow? PLEASE someone explain in an easy way cause this question is eating me bro.

Are you saying you have these cells in a loop, or three of them in series ?
Assuming series, a small amount of electrons may flow for a very short while from one battery terminal to the next, but the charges will soon equalise.
There is nowhere for the electrons at either end of the cell-chain to go, so they will just stop. What you have is then the same situation as a single unconnected cell; there is nothing at the ends to discharge into.
Current is the amount of charge carriers moving per time. I=dQ/dt. As there is nothing moving, there is no current Maybe plenty of voltage, but no path so no current
