      And then you have Pinkman not only not laundering his money, but straining it like a strainer. Walter making personal property purchases. Leaving records of his work with Fring in his bathroom at home, both of them directly attacking people who work for their dangerous crime boss. If half of the mess of these two dope makers was overseen by Goodman, Walter White would have died of cancer peacefully in his bed with the love of his son, the love or appreciation of his family, Pinkman and maybe even Fring in his own way, and the understanding of his wife.

So when Skylar gets in the way of Walts goal, it's like when Gus or Tuco or whoever gets in the way of Walts story. She also isn't very supportive of Walt, even though we learn kinda quickly that she isn't perfect either. I always thought it was kinda lame it took 3 seasons for her and Walt to start scheming together, unlike Jimmy and Kim in BCS, who are always supportive of each other

      In Odenkirk’s book, he said the original part was for four episodes, and he could only do three because he was already booked to appear on an episode of How I Met Your Mother. As a result of only being able to do three episodes, they had to split the original role into two different characters, and Mike Ehrmantraut was created.

      Eh, I wouldn't say that was proof he was a "killer lawyer." He only knew about the meth lab because his client was the one who put it there. That's not so much of being a "killer lawyer" as it is just lucking out and having knowledge of the property he couldn't possibly have had if Jesse wasn't his client. Plus, what he did is a form of blackmail, and is illegal in all 50 U.S. states. You can't threaten criminal proceedings if a seller doesn't want to come down to your price.
      TL;DR version: Saul might have been a great lawyer, but this scene is not proof of that.

      @james_ford86 2 года назад

      @@RenaldyCalixte Whether they were blackmailed or not has NO bearing on whether or not the Pinkmans would be charged with a crime. Sure, they could report Saul/Jimmy, and he might face charges, provided they could actually prove it. It would be their word against his, and as there is no recording or written demand from Saul clearly blackmailing them, it'd be unlikely he'd be convicted. There would have to be real evidence of the blackmail attempt, other than their word, i.e. proof, for Saul to actually face any time for that.
      Like I said before though, it is irrelevant to the fact that the Pinkmans knowingly concealed a felony, which would make them accessories to the crime and they would definitely face charges and jail time if the police were to find out, no matter how they found out. It's like Saul/Jimmy said when dealing with the Kettlemans, "Criminals have no recourse." Telling on him is telling on themselves, and just because he was breaking the law wouldn't alleviate them of the punishment they would face for their crimes.

Saul Goodman is the little guy that stands up to the big bad law firms. It's what Jimmy has been moving toward since the end of S4. And because of that he loves Saul Goodman. He loves being the guy who wins after being a loser for so long as evidenced by Quite a Ride. So he probably isn't chilling at home having breakdowns. He's probably having fun.

    After seeing the recent episode of better call saul this is so sad. His entite Saul persona is kind of his way of numbing the loss of Kim. Sure he lost his brother and others like Howard, but Kim was the final straw holding him together. Her loss litterally broke him and fully turned him into Saul.

    It’s so strange watching any breaking bad Saul Goodman scenes after watching Better Call Saul. You can’t unsee all the drama, twists and tragedies that have led him to be this person. Walt doesn’t even feel like the main character anymore next to Jimmy. Breaking bad is probably the better show in terms of action and plot, but the character development and progressive slow but inexorable build of Better Call Saul is the greatest thing on modern television, truly a masterpiece.

      Dude, this whole Saul Goodman shtick was the only thing he had left after Kim left. Notice how every second of the montage after the breakup is Saul keeping himself busy just not to think about the things that happened. He's non stop on the phone (even when he f*cking showers - shower thoughs?), busy with work or doing something to distract himself from remembering when he used to be Jimmy. Look at his house, he even got a cutout of himself as Saul on display. Saul Goodman is a coping mechanism.
