Oh I'm fully expecting them to end the series with Saul's first meeting with Walt and Jesse. Whether we actually see them or not is not a given though.

Mike wasn't involved, and more importantly Jimmy/Saul is not privy to the drug business until we're deep into Breaking Bad.
They could very well be setting up a story about the Gus/Lydia/Madrigal connection. At some point Gus is going to break away from the cartel.

Re: Better Call Saul - almost forgot
This show just keeps getting better and better; the acting, script, storyline, cinematography - all good.

The Mike pavement scene was showing the opposite side of the dark rabbit hole he's about to go down. The commercial sales showed Jimmy getting beat down, enough to where he finally stopped GAF and became set on ruining his brother and his venture into It's All Good Man.

Yeah, it's showing his struggle to scrape by and keep up with his half of the rent. This is pushing him down the "easy" path.

My theory is that since they wouldn't cancel his malpractice, he's going to get one of his old clients to sue him for a shit load of money and split it with them. Which will lead to his permanent disbarment. And he'll have to practice as Saul.

Interesting thought. Maybe to really get back at Chuck he gets one of the people from the nursing home case he turned over to HHM to do it. That time when he was recruiting everyone on the bus in front of that casino in Texas was illegal as fuck.

Re: Better Call Saul - almost forgot
I definitely like this show better when it's doing it's own thing and not tying itself to Breaking Bad. Show got worse when Gus and all the cartel shit showed up, seen that already, don't care.

Kim Wexler and/or Chuck is going to die

I think the name change will have more to do with feeling guilty about fucking chuck over so bad, that he doesn't want to ruin the family name and decides to move forward with Saul. As much as he hates what Chuck did to him, he has cared for him all these years even with him being a prick.

Yeah...it was OK. It's still seems like the fastest 40 minutes ever though. Wish they were a full hour of content.
Thought it was kind of ridiculous how Nacho decided to get the pills into the coat pocket. Seems like an awful lot of risk there.

shows been really dragging for a few episodes now... c'mon gilligan

Re: Better Call Saul - almost forgot
All you complaining, did you expect shit to devolve in a matter of an episode? That Jimmy would become Saul within a week?
The point of last week was the mundane and discouragement.
That set up this week's episode with his desperate.
Kim has her finger on the nuke button.
She's not taking this new client for any other reason than it's her legit client, free and clear of Jimmy and the guilt of knowing what he did and how far she went to protect him.
Jimmy has already gone nuclear and is ready to tear this mother fucker down.
And Hamlin would like to rip heads off and shit into their dead skulls.
And that's not including anything boiling over with Nacho and Mike.
You all are missing the brilliance of mundane at best.
It's telling us every truth the exciting episodes talk past.

Re: Better Call Saul - almost forgot
Really enjoyed the last episode. Each of the storylines moved along and was interesting. Jimmy, Kim, Chuck, Gus, and Mike. Got a lot done in 40 minutes.

agreed. Nothing spectacular happened, but I still enjoyed the episode. The characters really showed their glaring traits that episode.

How the hell did Howard think he was going to kick Chuck out of the firm?

Don't know.
But do we all agree that Jimmy isn't going to get his $1.2 million?

Re: Better Call Saul - almost forgot
Jimmy already has money, no?
What I took was Jimmy screwing everyone for his own gain also gives HHM the nest egg to buyout Chuck, who likely sues for damages.
This episode showed the beginnings of why we never heard of HHM in Breaking Bad, and why we never heard of Kim in Breaking Bad. A trainwreck is coming.

Jimmy is close to broke right now. I'm not sure he gets ahead until he becomes Saul. There's not doubt about the trainwreck though.

Re: Better Call Saul - almost forgot
This last episode he wanted to celebrate with Kim about the settlement.
He had that $100 a shot tequila with him.
He has money.

You sure he didn't just put it on a credit card assuming his payday was near?
