Lalo probably chumps the hell out of Victor before getting he jobs out this season. How else does Victor end up as such a nephew in BrBa when he seems like a made man in BCS?

Maybe the discussion about Mike's guys watching his house goes somewhere. Victor convinces Gus to order Mike to move those guys elsewhere, Lalo breaks in and, after finding something with her address, gives Stacey the Margarethe treatment. Mike kills Lalo in response, tells Gus that from now on Victor stays on a tight leash, and that he'll choke him with it if he puts his family at risk again.

Victor’s a fuckin dipshit, it’s not hard to imagine why his position in the organization was effectively downgraded as Mike became further ingrained and brought in more competent people Recall that Victor got owned by Gus because despite his long criminal career he was stupid enough to rather conspicuously run up to the scene of Gale’s murder while it was surrounded by people

back half takes place during breaking bad but is largely focused on Saul’s class action lawsuit over wayfarer 515

actually don’t think ive seen that suggested as having potential for a plotline, he’s running around with that ribbon on for like two seasons, if you can get Nacho and Lalo off of one line in the desert then i’m sure you can get something out of him suing an airline

That's right, it's Erin Brill, out to put a stop to Jimmy McGill for good!

If someone is doing a rewatch of the show before the finale please check if the following plot twists make retroactive sense - Kim was a ghost all that time and only Saul and us can see her - Kim and Jimmy are the same person - Saul is a ghost

Saul doesn't even exist. Gene is a sad recovering meth addict who's been escaping his mundane life fantasizing about this adventurous life of danger and intrigue with his high school crush who he once watched getting caught stealing jewelry. In the finale, he'll be caught daydreaming as someone runs into him in the food court. When the person apologizes, Gene says to the camera, "It's all good, man!"

I’m wondering if we’re even going to see Saul get the vets book since it’s so obvious it happened that having a scene where he goes “yes I would like to buy your book please” might be redundant.

Kim buys or acquires the black book. She was way more interested in it than Jimmy was last episode.

DOPE FIEND KILLA G posted:back half takes place during breaking bad but is largely focused on Saul’s class action lawsuit over wayfarer 515 This isn't the worst idea I've heard, as it was certainly a thing he was trying to get going. I don't know if it'll be a focus, but I think that deserves some airtime at least to show some of what he was up to there. My headcanon is that at some point he got a quick and dirty settlement out of them because the airline's lawyers didn't want to take it to court, and Saul's certainly sleazy enough to get a relatively cheap and easy payday from that rather than trying to tie them up in a Sandpiper-esque case in terms of length and effort involved. I think realistically what we'll have is the Lalo vs. Gus and Mike conflict up until we jump ahead to the timeline of Breaking Bad, then some minor things to flesh out things from their perspective during that timeframe. The extra Saul stuff we'll see from BB time will mostly be about seeing what his life is like when he's not "on" as Saul, such as showing him buying and living in that big rear end mansion and the type of person he actually is. We'll get some Walt and Jesse and bits of whatever other cases he's going after in there too. Resolution on Kim's status during BB will obviously be a major thing that'll be figured out in that time period as well. I think out of the overall 13 episodes of this last season of BCS, either 10 or 11 of them will be pre-BB, then 1 or 2 will be set during BB, and the finale will be entirely in the Gene timeline. I think the BCS equivalent of the amazing Ozymandias episode, and really the big climax of the show, will be the last episode before we start shifting into BB Saul, and that'll be the episode where they pack in the resolution to the Lalo/Gus/Mike conflict and Kim and Saul having one hell of a breakup scene, and then seeing a bit of the aftermath of those two situations. Then we get some denouement of things in the last 2 or 3 episodes. We've seen enough of Saul's good side that I think we'll get a bittersweet but overall happy ending for him, including some kind of reunion with Kim and him coming back to life in some form. I wouldn't mind seeing him turn himself in, somehow swing bail for himself, and see him geared up, ready, and eager to defend himself (maybe with one hell of a montage to help sell that process). Then I feel like you could wrap things up with him in a well-furnished jail cell wearing a very bright and vibrant orange jumpsuit doling out legal advice to all the prisoners (I'd see this as the most likely ending). It's even more impactful if you have color slowly creeping in here and there in a black and white finale, but it's when he's locked up and truly able to live as himself that full color suddenly arrives in what you would expect to be the most dreary place. Or alternately, he manages to beat the charges against him and we see him relaxing in Belize or something. Or maybe we don't know what his fate will be at his own trial, but he has Kim as his attorney and we end with them plotting out schemes to try to get him an acquittal. There's a lot of fun and interesting ways for this show to end, and I can't wait to see what this very good creative team has come up with. The only thing I'm really drat sure of at this point is that Kim's not going to end up dead on this show, which is a big relief to me. Sadly for him, I think Howard has drawn the "gonna end up dead or seriously messed up" straw. He's wound too tightly and dealing with too many things, and he's not used to proper caffeine since he drinks tea. Dosing Howard is going to end up going real bad, and that's going to be the major fallout/cliffhanger that we'll have going into the last 6 episodes on the Kim/Saul side of the story.

At this point even if they don’t go through with the horse cocaine plan at the last minute, they were still going to the whole time, which makes both of them irredeemable. And I’m looking forward to it.

skipmyseashells posted:Kimmy just turned around on her dream job to go ratfuck Howard, it’s as bad as Walt not accepting the grey matter money to go cook instead I'm just saying, technically they can still back out until they do it. That still matters in my eyes--pointing a gun is not the same as pulling the trigger. And in this analogy, the gun is concealed and Howard thinks the threat is a water balloon. I feel Jimmy is not fighting hard to follow through and Kim can still change her mind. Heck, he's probably hoping she does. That said, I fully expect them to follow through. iamsosmrt fucked around with this message at 22:05 on May 21, 2022 |

an interesting thing about Jimmy is that his friends seem to be extremely loyal. Ernie is a good example of this. Even though Jimmy lied, HHM paid for his law school, and Chuck was his boss he still had solidarity with Jimmy. Now, whether that means Jimmy is THAT good of a confidence man or just discerning or else there's something about him that's trustworthy is up to the viewer to figure out.

Jimmy lets his friends have cucumber water without having to buy his services. Also Kim's final slip will be when she makes a website that allows people to pirate cartoons.

I just caught up. I understand Lalo found the ruler in Werner's house that has some manufacturing company address on it - how did this lead him to Casper? I feel like I missed something in-between.

Mike shows up in the tow truck and hauls your car to the airport. When you ask him what he's doing he hands you a bundle of cash and tells you to leave town for a couple of days. When you get back it looks like your tire's been changed but on further inspection his guys have replaced the entire car with an identical model with four inflated tires. None of this is ever explained.
