i love the parallels between chuck and mike's plots. they both start the episode with nothing but a bit of information, and they both hatch plans to give the information to their targets via trojan horse.

Supercar Gautier posted:I'm honestly more excited to see the show introduce Lalo than in seeing Gus. A so-far unseen cartel bigwig who Jimmy and Nacho pull one over on, leaving Jimmy looking over his shoulder all the way into the BB era? Gimme that storyline, Vince. francesca appearing in this episode makes it virtually certain that Huell will show up before BCS is done, which is what i'm waiting for

Cojawfee posted:I fully expect the court room to be ridden of any electronic devices to cater to Chuck's illness. Then when Chuck is on the stand and Jimmy is questioning him, and asks him if he feels well since all the electronics were removed. Chuck will say that he is fine. Then Jimmy will reveal that there is a radio, a watch, and a cell phone sitting under Chuck's chair, so how could he possibly feel fine? i initially thought that chuck's mental wellness would be the pivotal topic of the case, but that's changed now that there's assault charges on the line. there just isn't anyway for him to use chuck's illness to justify his own actions. i think jimmy's defense is going to be a lot weirder than that maybe he'll take a leaf out of sandpiper's book and start out by trying to bury the trial in paperwork

notthegoatseguy posted:I know the special prosecutor was described as a hard rear end, but I'm surprised she didn't even suggest doing a plea for the misdemeanors and dropping the felony. Usually prosecutors tend to just want to have some type of win in these low level cases. im personally curious about whether she's going to end up having a personal reason to go after another lawyer, or if she ends up being mostly an audience surrogate who gets increasingly exasperated at jimmy and chuck's slapfighting

sure, but that's a declaration that A) is something any lawyer would say in that position, and B) establishes no character traits whatsoever for her. i guess it's possible that the writers decided to make her RoboLawyer v1.0 to avoid gumming up the focus on Odenkirk vs. McKeon, but i doubt gilligan and crew would be that negligent for someone who will figure heavily into the next few episodes, or even seasons.

Cojawfee posted:Hello, My name is Saul McGill. After my brothers Chuck and Jimmy died, I've decided to become a lawyer in their honor. Since "good man" could be used as a descriptor for both of them, I am hereby changing my name to Saul Goodman. Though, I'm kind of a lovely dude, so I'm going to be a shady type of lawyer. Money laundering, meth deals, you know. this just sounds like a jamie casino commercial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jr2gdPY-88w

vermin posted:Just to get this straight, Saul's in hiding because Walt was dragging everyone to hell with him? It's been so long since I've seen Breaking Bad but I don't remember the specific reason he disappeared. i don't actually recall walt doing the walt thing at saul at the end. their parting wasn't exactly amicable, but i think saul's the one who helps set up walt's new hampshire retreat. they both make use of the disappearer at around the same time, since the feds have taped confession from jesse by then my memory is a bit fuzzy, though. i get to those episodes in my rewatch tonight, so we'll see e: i wouldn't use spoil tags but this is at the top of a page so whatever

Big Mean Jerk posted:The Aryans had Jesse's taped confession, which likely detailed every illegal activity Saul was engaged in. The cops who found Walt's body would probably also find that tape when they went through the clubhouse. They also had Huell. surprise bcs twist: the cinnabon scenes are after saul's escape but before walt's blaze of glory several months later

Cnut the Great posted:Davis & Main didn't look ridiculous, they just looked stuffy and boring--but ultimately more professional than what Jimmy was offering them. I think it's a little more complicated than that. In the first few episodes of season 2 it's established that davis and main is much more liberal than HHM. there's an open office, lot of new-age aesthetic, and they're willing to acquiesce on all of jimmy's weird sign-on requests like the new desk. I think the intention there was to show that even the most relaxed environment for a big-name law firm would be too constraining for Jimmy.

whats weird about this episode to me is that the end of season 1 had jimmy saying, explicitly, "if i have a million bucks in front of me again, i'm not giving it up this time" he just gave up a million because some old ladies were being catty. he's a pathological do-gooder

season 2 of both better call saul and breaking bad are bad. it seems like gilligan just isn't that good at connecting the initial premise with the rising action; in both cases he got bogged down in all these little character beats and motivations to get them set up properly for the legitimately great stuff later on, but it's quite boring trying to get there
