They pitched a bogus investment opportunity to the engineer.

yes, that is obvious, but I wanted to see the scam. I enjoyed watching Marco and Jimmy work.

So, Kim's from a small Kansas town. We know she's not around in Breaking Bad, so I'm worried she's going to die or something.

WTF is Mike doing? Going after Hector? Maybe Mike is the one who puts Hector in a wheelchair.

Man, Jimmy's new suits!  :love:

Those new suits are pretty sweet.  Hector looked like he'd had a stroke in Breaking Bad, not sure how you induce one of those.

Mike has got to be doing something to get a gig with the cartel.  He ends up with Gus and Gus is in the same org as the salamancas.  He is buying his daughter in law a nice house and his 25k isn't covering that.  He needs decent income and understands where to get it, I bet.

In my mind's eye Kim is from Seneca, or maybe Sabetha.

I don't think Kim will die. She moves back home and that is why Jimmy/Saul chooses Omaha as a soft landing spot in Breaking Bad. It's in close proximity to Kim.

Howard is going to completely f Kim in a bungled job change.

Kim seemed hesitant to reveal much of her background during that interview.  I wonder what her backstory is that caused her to get the hell out of Kansas and pick New Mexico as a landing spot.  Maybe she has a slightly shady or checkered past too??

That montage of Saul getting dressed cut with images of the inflatable guy thingy was perfect.

They've had full flashback episodes for Jimmy and Mike. Hopefully we get a pre-ABQ Kim episode soon  :pray:

I can see this theory. I don't think she's going to die because that would crush Jimmy and I don't think he'd stick around ABQ and become Saul if something that devastating happened to him.

Okay, so the long opening single cam shot following the truck crossing the border was really rough ridin' stylish and cool.

Totally loved watching Jimmy go all chimp with a machine gun crazy while trying to sabotage HHM.

Was bummed to see in the sneak peek that his plot fails. But, hey, that's Saul. One major disappointment after another.

I wonder how many seasons of Slippin' Jimmy we'll get until we get Saul. As discussed I've never seen BB so I'm looking forward to Saul.

That was great. It looked like it was shot from a drone.

Are you ever going to watch BB?  I would be curious what the experience would be if you watched it following BCS concluding

I mean, he really is the same guy character wise. I don't think you could say he ever snaps and stops being slipping Jimmy. He just gets mixed up with various shady characters along the way just like he has since like the second episode of BCS.

I'm actually more interested to see exactly how Mike gets in with Gus.

Saul's strip mall office in BB kills me every time. The columns, the circular windows, the goddamn Constitution wallpaper, the inflatable Statue of Liberty on the roof, and the waiting room packed full with plenty of dirty, smelly looking people, thugs, crying babies, and neck braces.

I wonder if that's his cocobolo desk.

I would like to. I took up BCS from the start based on a tip that Saul was the best part of BB.

Things are getting out of hand with Jimmy.  Im really interested to see how this plays out, though.  We're still not up to Saul yet, but it feels closer.  He won't be getting caught, i don't think, since hes still a practicing lawyer in BB (He certainly would be disbarred if he got caught forging documents) but theres no Chuck and no Kim SO WHAT HAPPENS???

I think that Chuck dies. Kim obvs knows that Jimmy did forge those documents and chose him over the "right" thing/going along with Chuck. Jimmy takes Chuck's death hard, tells Kim all the dets about him bribing the printer clerk, being there, etc. Kim realizes that Chuck was right and shuns Jimmy.

Kim already knows he did it tho! Did you not take hint during the bed scene?

If chuck dies, Kim is the only thing keeping him from fully shedding his conscience.  That said, there is quite a bit of Kim left, imo, but we can't get into that here if spoilers are an issue for those who haven't watched Breaking Bad.

Yepper Kim knows. I'm saying that she's going to realize what Chuck has been saying all along about Jimmy and cuts ties with him, especially with Mesa Verde and them sharing the office.
