Better Call Saul - almost forgot

[JMarkJohns]

"Dont" seems perfectly simple an introduction for the unassuming businessman who wordlessly slices the throat of a henchman for overstepping his bounds.

It was direct and indirectly ominous.

It seems too convenient that Nacho would be blocking the shot the whole time. I wonder who Nacho could trust to put that stick on Mike's horn though. Maybe it is Fring and Nacho is getting ready to join his crew.

I'm not sure I understand the timetable of Mike trying to kill Hector. So is Mike primarily trying to save the driver? It seems like he would assume that the driver was already dead when Nacho said they took care of it. Also seems like a long time between when they would have had the driver and when they eventually killed him. And that Mike knew precisely when they were going to kill him. He had time to follow them to the ranch. Then go buy the gun (I assume on a different day). And then come back.

Or was Mike going to shoot Hector anyway and it was just a coincidence that the driver was still there?

God damn Chuck going in raw on Jimmy.

Wondering if this leads to Jimmy getting disbarred and having to practice under the name of Saul Goodman.

I'm assuming that Chuck has to die in order for Saul to be able to practice law and Chuck not tell on him. Or Chuck goes into a permanent vegetative state.

Or Jimmy has Chuck committed.

I don't think you can practice law after getting disbarred. Even after a name change, that past follows you. Plus Jimmy now has commercials on air. No way would people not recognize him under a different alias. I bet he agrees to practice law under a different name to please Chuck from releasing the tape. Leaving the McGill name untainted.

Better Call Saul owns because you root for Jimmy gaslighting his mentally ill brother.

I enjoyed this season quite a bit.

Chuck's a for lying about his mother's dying words though.

[JMarkJohns]

So, if you take the first letter of each episode le and rearrange them, it spells "FRINGS BACK".

Just heard that in the radio. Awesome.

[JMarkJohns]

I can't remember who said it or where, but I agree with whomever said that Fring and Nacho are likely in this together. Mike becomes Frings #1 in this, and Nacho likely becomes Ignacio from the above clip at the end of it all.

As for Jimmy, yes, it's clear there's some deal where Chuck gets him to change his name, maybe even stay clear of anything Sand Piper in exchanged for not exposing the tape.

Though, I still maintain, many states require acknowledged consent to be recorded.

So it might be more of a blackmail item than legal evidence.

[SpursforSix]

Does anyone understand the sequence of Mike following them to the ranch, then buying a gun. And then going back to the ranch? And then coincidentally, that's the day they kill the driver? I figured he'd be long dead after Nach said they took care of him.

It's gotta be a flashback.

New Mexico only requires single party consent for taping conversations. Chuck would have never done it otherwise, he follows the law pretty strictly.

[SpursforSix]

So the flashback is from him following the van through buying the gun?

I gotta watch the episode again to get the timeline right. Maybe I'll watch it again after the game.

I'm glad Gilligan got overruled by the other writers in wanting to have Marie be the technician doing the CAT scan.

Ugh. Didn't know that. Yeah...she doesn't need to show up.

The whole conversation feels like entrapment.

I was not sure about this pre-breaking bad show would work
but it looks like they pulled it off ok. How long before Walt shows up.

Love the show as well...kills walking dead and cracks me up that walking dead die hards claim that the haters just want a show filled with zombie killing when better call saul is 95% character development and dialogue.

Better Call Saul producers have confirmed that a fan theory regarding the second season finale is correct.

In an interview with Vanity Fair, Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould said that villain Gustavo Fring, played by Giancarlo Esposito, would appear in Season 3.

God damn Chuck is such a got. Family or not, I would've cut ties with his ass long ago if I was Jimmy.

[InRareForm]

Chuck is a . Can't believe he didn't say that the Mom said for his name

No doubt. That scene foreshadowed that regardless of how ethical Chuck makes himself out to be, he's not beyond lying to Jimmy up.
