KingCobra2

We are officially at peak!!

Franky

This is the only time Jimmy and Kim say I love you 😔

Warius

At this point in the show, I believe it's about 2004-2005 by the end of this episode. That's around when Walt started working at the car wash. Still 3-4 years before Walter White's 50th birthday party and Hank's ridealong. Jesse is probably high somewhere.

KingCobra2

You weren't wrong for thinking there was something more between Gus and the sommelier. Though it's heavily implied through Max that Gus is attracted to men, not even he can let loose and be a romantic for even a moment. What makes the writing that much more genius to me is that not even Gus lets himself access that part of his life lest he expose himself and his vulnerability. That's why I think he left prematurely. He felt the urge to be human and remembered there's work to do instead.

Franky

I think the scene with Gustavo at the bar is him realizing he can never have a connection with anybody

Mason Miller

Yeah he is too focused on his revenge.

Warius

a tragic detail in the ending is that Saul cannot physically spend more than one second in silence. He always has to be on a call, blasting music, arguing with someone, drumming his fingers on his desk during the wait between clients, because silence might let him actually think about the horrible things he's done, and Saul doesn't have time for that.

Jesse James

Pain is more or less what makes us all rattle. The worse it is the more distraction we want.

Jesse James

That scene between Howard's widow and Jimmy/Kim was some very heavy gaslighting. o_O

nicolas L

so between lalo and walter getting diagnosed there is about 4 years

I think Kim was disturbed at how easily her last lie to Howard’s wife rolled out of her mouth. Even as she’s distraught over what they did, that she could still pull a little Slippin Kimmy to squirm out of that conversation. That was it for her. The last scene between Kim and Jimmy still makes me tear up. They were fun together, as toxic as they were, but the end of their relationship reminds me that the BCS story is coming to an end. Plus Bob O. and Rhea S. were just outstanding together.

Jacob Hull

I don’t rlly like the last few episodes but I love how the story ends I think episode 7-10 is peak and then 11-13 is also peak.

The crazy thing is that the death of howard goes ALLLL the way back to when jimmy got involved with the kettleman case in episode 1 of the series. If jimmy had simply let them go, instead of paying the skateboard punks to try and scam ms.kettleman, howard would still be alive. It is literally all Jimmy's fault. You could argue every single death in better call saul, and breaking bad is jimmy's fault. emilio, though was ratted out by Crazy-8 in breaking bad as a meth cook, it is only through jimmy's involvement with the cartel in better call saul that crazy-8 was made into a rat. Though it is Walter's fault Jane died, and the 737 planes crashed, if jimmy had never tried to scam the kettlemans and did not get involved with the dark side of the law, walter would not have been involved, and would not have resulted in all those deaths. In fact walt would have been dead by season 2. It is absolutely terrifying the damage jimmy has actually caused to the world in this show. Its absolutely devastating when you start really looking into the finer details.

Jack McCormick

This is a still few years before Walter and Jesse come into the picture. The lab took some time to finish. The next few episodes will jump around in time and it is kind of hard to know exactly when everything was other than the difference between the black and white that happens post Breaking Bad and the color parts that really tie things together between this episode and Breaking Bad.

Hyperion

So @30:00 gus is romantically interested in that server. He is the only person that can appreciate fine details to an extent that may exceed gus' own perception. Gus is confirned to be homosexual, Max was his boyfriend before hector killed him at Download Audio's pool in breaking bad. That server is a glimpse into what gus wants. The problem though, and why gus leaves, is that the server is a distraction from gus' goals. Gus will not rest until his enemies are crushed beneath his heel. He would have happily settled down with that server after the events of breaking bad, if he was not distracted by heisenberg.

It was downright vile, what Kim did to Howard's widow. Tom showed A LOT of restrain for that particular jewel of a scene. When I first saw it I finally accepted, "yep, this is what Kim has become now." She utterly devolved. And Tom did perceptively point out everything that would unravel with the weight of Kim's guilt. She could not stand what she became and had to leave for good.

David Caine

"Let Justice be done though the heavens fall...." It is what Chuck said right before his downfall. Before trying to put down Jimmy for good at the bar discipline hearing, even though he was right about Jimmy's nature, Chuck was doing it all for the wrong reasons. And that final scene in THIS episode is the result of actively bringing out the worst in Jimmy. BUT, that whole "flashforward" is sad in several ways. It is what we knew of Saul back in Breaking Bad. We thought he was just a sleazy character too good at what he does. NOW we know the tragic underlying heartache that drives it all. "Apart we're okay....but together, we're poison..." Kim says. Yet now we see and we know that Jimmy is not okay, he went all in, and people did suffer because of him helping Walter White and Jesse Pinkman.

Dashed

Reminds me of Jesse after the killed Gail

Arthur Mitchell

I absolutely love how you see what Gus fought through (even though I hate him for using Nacho Varga without remorse as he did, threatening his fathers life and referring to him as a 'dog who bites' that needs to be disciplined with a stern hand or 'put down'), despite everything he went through; all it took was a high school chemistry teacher and a 25 year old drug addict to take down everything Gus worked his whole life for.

Frank(ie) D

Over the course of six seasons, Better Call Saul manages to reframe Saul Goodman from a sleazy funny lawyer to a broken battered man who has fully embraced the person his brother always saw him as. Truly, bravo to the team of writers who managed to pull this off so beautifully.

Avery

Still feel the need to say Rip Howard. His absence is definitely felt

Avery

When the shows over id love to hear where this series ranks amongst other shows you have seen. For me its a top 3, behind Game of Thrones and the Sopranos, and tied with BB

Jay

I like how Tom doesn’t hesitate to lean into those deeper moments (both physically and cognitively) like when Mike is speaking to Nacho’s father, just so he can be more invested in the scene. Almost like he’s allowing him self to be fully immersed in the characters’ experience, rather than just enjoying the exchange. You can tell he really lets the show resonate with him on a personal level.

Avery

My take on the Gus restaurant scene is that Gus fancies this guy, and vice versa, but Gus ultimately leaves because he knows he can never have a meaningful relationship with anyone because of what he does for a living.

Harry

Wow I just realized the significance of that Gus drinking wine scene it’s the earthy bloody taste that ultimately brings him back to his violent reality and he didn’t wanna bring David into it

Reaction Therapy

I try to stay balanced because I get in trouble when I become too opinionated 😳

Jesse James

Overall there's nothing you've said that I've been like "how dare you!" or "nahhh". I don't believe but that's just always been the case with me. (shrug)

hbk314

Yes, it's awful that she did that, but ultimately she did it to save Cheryl's life along with her own and Jimmy's. If Cheryl were to continue digging into Howard's death, she'd be at risk of being harmed by Gus and his men. Kim had to sell the story at all costs.

David Caine

But it's fun to get in trouble Tom, 😈. Ask Kim and Jimmy.😂 Plus, the vast majority of us wanna hear your opinions, no matter what, on the characters and plot. It's why it was great when Tom was ragging on Howard at the beginning of the series, the fake, manufactured lawyer aura of manipulative. Calling Howard out and pointing out his corporate falseness, the pandering to Chuck. I was like, "yessssss, when it turns around later on in the show it's gonna be even sweeter when Tom realizes Howard's true motivations and inner struggles...." But then people would unintentionally hint at aspects of Howard's character that were not meant to be seen yet, and calling those comments out would put a spoilerish spotlight on themes and characterizations. But in the end it was all good. The more controversial the opinion, the better it is to generate debate if we can reign in an stay balanced, as Tom said.

Jesse James

Simply put, we are technically here to hear your input Tom. :D Speaking your mind might get someone upset and that's the risk you run by expressing yourself.

Josh Carlsen

I think the wine special occasion was the mass poisoning of the cartel.

Edward

Pluribus next

SixFeetUnderKai

This last chunk of the season is indescribable.

SixFeetUnderKai

It makes me so sad. I know he's done a whole lot of awful things but Giancarlo Esposito does a great job with his facial expressions. The genuine interest in his eyes when they were talking. The compartmentalizing and disappointment when he realizes it could never work.
