That’s what I’ve been saying. He did all of the work to knock his sentence how to 7 years solely to prove his skill and for his love of the game, knowing full well his plan to take full accountability in front of Kim and the court and finally accept the full consequences of his actions for once.
@@artvandellayActually, I don’t think he did plan to take accountability up until they told him that Kim had confessed about Howard. It was only after he realized that she came clean that he decided he would as well.
@@FrostyTheSnowPickle you’re probably right, I’m rewatching right now but haven’t got to the end yet and it’s been a bit, but I think my first part of the comment stands, he wanted to show them that he can’t be out-lawyered.
@@artvandellay That part is absolutely true. At the beginning of the series, as Jimmy McGill, he could barely hold his own in court. Now that he’s become a fully realized Saul Goodman, the only person that can take him down in court is himself. Saul Goodman can only be defeated by Jimmy McGill.
Theoretically. Saul said nothing wrong, Walt WOULD have killed off Saul. Walt DID eliminate anyone in his way. Walt DID put a gun to Saul's head in front of a shallow grave when he refused their offer initially.
Well, I wouldn't go as far as NOTHING wrong, but, definitely not ALL of the things he's accused of. It's simple fact that Walt wouldn't have gotten anywhere close to where he did without Saul's assistance (at many points willing).
It makes sense, "undefeated" doesn't mean "good lawyer" it means "chicken" who never rolls the dice with the jury when he has any doubt at all about victory and always goes for the plea bargain.
He played by his opponent’s insecurity to his reputation. For a lawyer, having a 100% conviction rate is a gold rush for clients. The statistic alone would lull anyone who needs a lawyer like that. To have a loss on record is ruining his reputation for his services, and would only hide his name behind others who pull in front of him with one more success rate. Given that if they went to trial, he would gamble his success rate with some 2-bit criminal lawyer. He actually has a solid case against Goodman, but with the jury it all comes down to perspective, and the jury can sway either way or become hung with one outlier. In summary, the prosecutor would rather have a guaranteed win than play a 90% chance of victory.
This scene is so good not just for what it is but what it sets up. It shows Saul never lost his tongue, his ability to talk his way out of anything, but he chose to forego it to do the right thing for once. Can’t think of any better way to end his story
Saul put on an Emmy caliber performance and just when he almost convinced us he was a harmless victim, slipping Jimmy comes out and sneaks his way out of there 😏

Not entirely true, even in a hung jury scenario it doesn't mean Saul couldn't be tried again, but in a lot of scenarios the prosecution deems it not worth the time and resources to do said retrial.

I found this scene a bit hard to buy. Duress is a defense presumably used by criminals all the time but in Saul's case it'd be especially weak IMO. Saul's reputation was always that of a complete sleazbag without a moral code long before Walt came along, which would be pretty strong circumstantial evidence against the 'Duress' thing. And the prosecution could call countless witnesses testifying that he showed no signs of distress or discomfort in the days before Walt killed Gus. In terms of hard evidence that Saul wasn't under duress, Francesca wouldn't hesitate for a single second to throw Saul under the bus. Kuby and Huell would probably flip pretty easily too; Kuby didn't show many signs of loyalty and Huell would be easily manipulated. Skyler would have no reason to play along either; she has a far more believable 'duress' angle and would have no reason to protect Saul. The prosecution was in an extremely strong position and there's no world where they'd go for a plea deal, let alone rush a deal pulling an all-nighter as if they were playing a losing hand.
@@LanceGraveleypride, just like when he had to go back into the bar to confront those two guys he knew was holding. His pride and insecurity got him in the end
That first little kidnapping job was adorable, Saul had been in worse situations by then. But when he says it like that, it really does seem like Walt was the bad guy he really was.
We saw Walter's fears, struggles and doubts firsthand but the public only knows Heisenberg, a ruthless, unscrupulous kingpin who was at the head of the biggest drug empire in America's history. So to the average person he was the most dangerous criminal alive during his time.
That’s because Jesse was thrown in a hole and tortured for 6 months and had to watch someone he cared deeply for get shot in the head. The only reason Jesse gets to go free was because he was the only one who truly paid for his crimes and genuinely felt remorse. Saul going to jail is him finally paying for his crimes

Bcs no lawyer, not one, can have a career of any length where they do jury trials and not sometimes lose.

This scene is basically a reference to Dr Strangelove.
Jimmy would have beat most of the charges against him if not for Kim.
Hank was NOT a "straight shooter". Hank was just as messed up and hypocritical as the rest. Just he was ok with his and his wife's crimes.
Hank also refused to have backup despite knowing what Jesse told him about Walter.

The only reason Jesse gets to go free was because he was the only one who truly paid for his crimes and genuinely felt remorse. Saul going to jail is him finally paying for his crimes
imo, this was the best outcome for Saul, being the top dog in prison definitely beats living in fear in a shit job
@@josetorres6392 He payed nothing, Jesse is my favorite character, suffered thought all the series. Still, the guy deserves far worse

Lost his family, became a slave for 6 months and forced to cook meth, the one time he tried to refuse and tried to escape he was forced to watch a girl he loved and cared for be shot and killed right in front of him without being able to stop or help
Then there’s the fact that he’s lost his freedom as Jesse pinkman and always has to look over his shoulder as the police are looking for him and to add further insult to injury live with the fact that the man he trusted let Jane the girl he really loved die and did nothing to save her and let him be taken and beaten and then used as a meth slave
Jesse ain’t no saint but in the series he was one with the heart in the end like his reaction to brock getting poisoned and Todd shooting that kid and even when Andrea’s brother being used by that gang to sell drugs he always stood up and questioned it even when face to face with people like Gus if it wasn’t for Jesse’s loyalty and heart Walter would of been killed by Gus quickly after the cartels death
Jesse while not the best person wasn’t a monster just somebody who dipped their hand into that life and without knowing the consequences got pulled in even in the first episode Walter blackmailed him to cook meth
