Ego-bot posted:This might get me yelled at by people here, but when the black guy accidentally overhears what's on the tape recorder and Michael Mckean starts freaking out, that was planned to happen, right? Emmanuel (sp?) - Yeah. Watching that I thought Chuck hosed up, but the end of the scene it think the it's clear Chuck wanted it to happen. I think he wants to tip Jimmy off so he can catch Jimmy in the act of stealing it or something. Re: Tracker chat: The only thing I didn't quite get by the end was why he had to drain down the battery, but its sort of easy to make a loose guess and that summary cleared it up.

Chuck, after years of having to insist his illness isn't fake, is now regularly faking symptoms to manipulate people. What a class act. EDIT: So was mike draining the tracker battery so that chuck could have a dead battery for his ploy?

I hope future episodes have a slightly obtuse procedure that is ultimately irrelevant to what it accomplishes.

Longbaugh01 posted:But, doesn't Kim already know at least that Jimmy did something underhanded to get her the case and she just doesn't want to know the details? Yeah, but that would be Chuck forcing the details on her so she can't live in wilful ignorance.. I do think it's more likely he's trying to set up Jimmy to get caught doing something he can't talk/fake his way out of though, just brought it up as another possibility. Whatever the case, Chuck is basically running a con/muddying his so-called integrity because he thinks the ends justify the means - the end in this case being that he's sick of Jimmy using the ends to justify the means!

I want Ernesto to take Chuck's advice and not tell Jimmy about the tape. Just so we get to see how Chuck reacts the next time Ernesto comes over.

So do we think Chuck made a duplicate tape to gently caress Jimmy over when he tries to destroy the original?

No because  at handling two tape recorders.He’s bluffing anyway, so he doesn’t really need a second copy.

Jimmy's going to steal the tape and record it so it sounds like he corrected the address and Chuck changed it back to the wrong one.

It'd be cathartic as gently caress if Jimmy outfoxed Chuck trying to outfox him.

Chuck's plan is totally to get Jimmy to try to steal the tape, catch him in the act, and use that as proof that the tape isn't him humoring Chuck and is in fact genuine.

My theory is that the Pokemon go type game Mike is using that knockoff gameboy for is popular with the Mexican cartels, and he's practicing so he can get in with them. The USB stick he got from the doctor is probably

I genuinely hope that Ernesto does what Chuck actually told him and thinks nothing of the tape. Chuck getting furious while going to increasingly contorted lengths to bait Jimmy would be pretty amusing.

All he really has to do is show Kim the tape. She'd probably ditch Jimbo and voluntarily sacrifice Mesa Verde. That wouldn't mend Chuck's ego though so he won't do that.

I told my photographer friend to watch this. She texted almost immediately upon starting S1 that she was impressed at how the first Cinnabon scene was shot and she's still impressed at the camera work several episodes in. This show is seriously the best cinematography on TV in god-knows-how-long, maybe ever. BB was good but BCS has obviously honed the craft further regardless of if you think the stories stack up.
