But how is Huell not in trouble? "Uh yeah I pickpocketed someone but it was to prove a point." How is it supposed to fly?
It's not pickpocketing if you're putting something into someone's pocket.

write your local representative that you want all the people putting stuff into your pockets stopped. if you are in the south you might get a law out of it and a visit from a social worker psychiatrist, if not. either way, win-win

Corn Dogs- Deep Fried Proof Of A Loving God
On the same note as the 'address mix-up' lie opening the episode, one of my favorite "Chuck believes he's infallible and everyone else is incompetent or amoral" moments is during the previous episode's deferment hearing, when the prosecutor shares her anecdote about her aunt's sound sensitivity and Chuck is visibly unconvinced and gives an obviously forced courtesy recognition of what she said.

I'm not saying it can't be done and I'm also completely willing to suspend my disbelief that Huell is just really good at what he does. But I am curious about the mechanics of putting something in someone's breast pocket that quickly and smoothly without them noticing.

The best part of Metal Gear Solid was planting C4 on a guard's back, taking out the others who come running with the FAMAS, then hiding under a box for two minutes until they decide to go back to normal.

The key is that Chuck got body checked at the same time. That’s why he didn’t notice.

He bumps into Chuck, and reaches into his jacket. A suit jacket breast pocket is going to be in the same spot for everyone so it's not like that was super difficult. Even if Chuck had his weirdo space blanket jacket, that side of the jacket was where a shirt pocket would be so Huell could drop it in there.

Are you sure? He's saying "It was 1216", as in that's the number that was on the documents he used to draw up the case, since Jimmy put that number there. He knew that was the number on the documents he was using (before Jimmy switched them back) because it's one year after the Magna Carta was signed. It's the same thing he said at the time, and he was right.

Chuck is always technically right, that's like his thing.

I like to think he just has so much surface area that you can't tell what's going on. All you know is you're being smushed and there's contact. You'd pay attention to the contact, except you're afraid of getting smushed and before you know what's happened, it's over and you're unsmushed and just grateful.

I think that was the best episode of the series so far, and probably my favorite episode of television overall since at least the last episode of Game of Thrones. Letting the show focus on the main character, and allowing his plot to actually develop, turns out to be a good thing.

It can definitely be done that way. Watch some youtube videos of magicians or pickpockets doing that stuff where they just plant poo poo all over you without you knowing.
