Better Call Saul: S1, Episode 4 (Hero) - Patreon Version

You may have noticed a slight blue tinge to the last two intros & the first episode's intro being black & white. The show communicates periods of time with colour really well. The black & white depicted his life as Gene, post Breaking Bad. The blueish colour is used to signal a flashback to things in Jimmy's life before Episode 1 of Better Call Saul. The two we've seen so far were during his "Slippin' Jimmy" days and also the ending of that life with him agreeing to move to ABQ with Chuck. One thing I love about Jimmy's con - and what makes it so believable to his victims, is how he gets them to feel in control of each step. The other guy finds the wallet & money, then sees the guy lying down, and he's the one who makes the final deal. At all times the other guy felt he was in control but he was actually being played every second of it. Even the wolf howling was probably a signal for Jimmy's friend to get in position! Ouch! Imagine putting all the effort in to go straight for what must be years and someone like Betsy can see right through you as "the type of lawyer guilty people hire" I trust you understand what she means there? Of course they are guilty, but she's saying that having him as their lawyer doesn't put out a good image to the court. He's not super well spoken, doesn't have a nice car or suit (until now), doesn't have a fancy law degree (not sure if you remember we saw his diploma in BB) and he seems to give off that low-life energy. It's fun to see that whilst Jimmy is clearly not the Saul we saw in Breaking Bad, he did already have the name stored away somewhere as a kind of joke. When they created Saul Goodman, they did deliberately give him a joke name, and he does say in his first episode that his real name is McGill!

Kim: "The Thing is playing downtown on Saturday. Thought you might be up for some Kurt Russell action." The 17 words every man wants to hear. 😍😍😍😍

This episode is so great. Watching your guys' mouths go agape during the reveal that Jimmy's actions throughout the whole episode were all just an elaborate scam to drum up business just made me giddy. Up until now, the audience has always been in on the scam, but this is the first one where the audience is scammed just like everyone else, and he really sold it, be it arguing with Kim in the Salon, or defending himself to a judge. Everything falls apart if he lets anything slip during these exchanges, but he is such a natural. The whole time you guys were trying to figure out his angle with the billboard, and even though the episode's cold open reminded you about his past as Slippin' Jimmy, you still didn't consider that he could have possibly been pulling another scam. Such a fun episode to rewatch, I especially loved seeing him do a hand signal to the guy on the billboard, which I of course didn't notice on the first watch, I was just as tricked as everyone else!

I didn't notice the use of colors to show different times! That's very helpful to know haha. And you make a really good point about his cons, and letting the people involved feel in control. A very clever tactic.

Incredibly, even though I watched the show when it came out, I had forgotten that the billboard incident was a scam. It wasn't until he was near the top of the ladder that I began to suspect it. It was hard to remember because I have such extreme vertigo that with scenes like that, I have to avert my eyes. As I was panicking over that, I also remembered what was going on with the scam.
