Better Call Saul

I almost thought Kim was going to tell the Mesa Verde lady, "it won't happen again, because I quit," but clearly she's not quite there, yet.


Something got her pretty ticked off at them. Besides, needs to keep the juice flowing until she finds something else.

Anybody remember what season Gus and Walt meet in B.B.? Thinking about rewatching a few episodes to refresh that area.

I want to say it's toward the end of season 2.

Interesting play Kim made - selling herself to Schweikart & Cokely so that she can keep doing PD work while getting paid Mesa Verde money. I think this is a big step toward the end of her and Jimmy.

I don't think the "end" of Kim and Jimmy is a foregone conclusion just because we didn't see her in BB, but the energy between them certainly indicates it.

However, they both are going in similar directions, she is jaded to corporate greed, and wants to help the little guys, and really, so does Jimmy.

I thought it was very poignant Jimmy watching the commercial.

I wonder if the Howards End mention is foreboding.

I assumed that there was no more Jimmy and Kim because he is in the waiting tank for the Vacuum/Life Fixer guy by himself, no Kim present. We don't see much about Saul's home life, you're correct - but (at the very least) she doesn't appear to relocate w/him to Omaha.

To further muddy it up, in S3 Ep4 of Breaking Bad, Saul tells Walter, "I caught his second wife cheating on me with my stepdad." That could very easily just be Saul talking out of his ass, or it could mean that there are two ex-wives. He has the one ex-wife back from prior to BCS (the "Chicago Sunroof" story about the guy she cheated with is what caused Chuck to have to save him from jail) - so either he does get married again before S3 of BB, or it was embellishment. Regardless, it makes it sound as if he's not currently married in that episode of BB.

It was noteworthy how much stronger of a reaction Jimmy had to watching the commercial than he did to Chuck's funeral.
 
Little help. Have they given us the back story of why Gus hates Hector so bad? I assume it has something to do with a loved one of Gus, but I cannot recall if this has been explained in BCS or BB. Ironic that he hates Hector so much to spend money to rehab him so that he can deliver further pain himself, but in the end, Walter takes them both out at the same time.

Just sad watching Jimmy and Kim drift apart. I assume once she helps Hue (and it looks like it will make her ethically uncomfortable), she is done with Jimmy.

I think when Jimmy was explaining to Kim the scenario he came up with to get Hue off the hook and make the cop look terrible she, coupled with him selling all the burner phones, she realizes he hasn't changed at all.

Agreed, and she tried to play it straight up. But in the end, looks like she has concocted her own "Jimmy" scheme involving the school supplies? Guessing helping Jimmy out of this jam will be her last straw.

I was really curious to see what she came up with so I was frustrated that didn't play out a bit more before the episode was over.

Yes, it was Gus's friend Max.

It's so interesting to see Huell flesh out as a character - the most we ever saw from him was really just when he and Bill Burr both decided to lie down on the cash in BB before Walter buried it.

There's supposed to be one season of BCS left after this, right? I don't think they'll get rid of Rhea Seahorn before the end, personally (or not until toward the end) - so I think that she will likely break up w/Jimmy sometime soon, but they'll still be involved somehow.

I'm glad to see Nacho is going to be in the next episode again - he's been missing from the last few, and I like his storylines.

Has it been said somewhere there is only one season left? I have no idea but I would have expected two at least based on the show timeline....although this last episode did burn through multiple months very quickly.

For the Breaking Bad people with good memories. The episode where Jimmy starts selling phones and has the biker group. Isn't the bald biker leader a guy that was in the packed lawyer office of Saul when Walt goes in to meet him. For some reason he stuck out to me.

My theory is in the first episode of last year, when he passed out at Cinnabon, he saw Kim in the mall. She's originally from Nebraska, and maybe she moved back sometime.

Wasn't the last branch opened up in Nebraska that they showed her putting on the display cabinet. Maybe she moved there and he picked NE because of her?

Sort of? They said at one point that it wouldn't go longer than BB, which was five seasons (but the last was broken up into two, so that leaves sort of a grey area). LINK That article seems to think this could be the last season, though, so maybe it's not the best source... although, maybe it's right? I have no idea.

That's really, really brilliant. It could explain how morose he is after, too. (I mean, other than his overall existence.)

Ouch. Could you imagine if Jimmy saw her with a handsome hubby and little son walking in the mall?
