Better Call Saul is the prequel to the award-winning series Breaking Bad, set six years before Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) became Walter White's lawyer. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and often against, Jimmy is "fixer" Mike Erhmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy's transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts "criminal" in "criminal lawyer."

Bob odenkirk after BCS ended
OF models in November
Quite the opposite, he landed more acting jobs after BB and BCS and gained more credibility, much like Bryan Cranston, who before BB was just known as the dad in Malcom in the Middle.

“If I'm lucky, a month from now, best-case scenario, I'm managing a Cinnabon in Omaha.” He really had this all planned out
Ngl that part was funny but mans was prepared 😂
@@arianaross5013 it was funny in BB, but it hit different the instant you got to *see* him there here.
Bravo Vince!
It was a throwaway line. Better Call Saul wasn't conceptualized during the time.
@@bluebrain7009 actually it was. Vince and Peter Gould began planning BCS around 2009 and around 2012 even floated the idea publicly, with Vince saying he liked the idea of a show about a Lawyer who will do anything to stay out of court
It’s nice to know Jesse is chilling somewhere in Alaska during these scenes
“If I’m lucky, month from now, best case scenario, I’m managing a Cinnabon in Omaha.”
jimmy is shown managing a cinnabon, in omaha, and if the cards were counted right then it’s only been a month since granite state. walt’s alive and living off ensure shakes and monthly card games, jesse is enslaved, andrea is alive, and skyler is being interrogated. sorry man.
@@tumbletunes3101 yeah but this scene isn’t set a month after Saul became Gene. The indication is that Gene is balding so it could be at least a year which would mean that the events of El Camino happened and Mr. Driscoll is living in Alaska
@@twelverth I’ve heard that, I’m just saying it’s not happening before the events of Felina
@@Wolf-wc1js o I read it wrong
@@twelverth No. It takes two years to grow a full mustache
These Gene scenes are depressing but fascinating. As simple as this looks, you can tell this was going to be a great show immediately; so detailed and artistic.
Better call Saul is no where near as fast paced or thrilling as breaking bad. But it is so cleverly written it’s unreal
Gene doesn’t do it for himself. He hates it. He’s bad at it and he is never alive.
@@Alanhardman69420 Bagman and the Lalos Interrogations on the second last episode of Season 5 omfg the suspense my god man I think Better Call Saul is better than Breaking Bad in my opinion
@@Alanhardman69420 Wrong dude Breaking Bad has so many flaws that BCS actually fixes. Creating a more compelling and interesting character in the form of Kim Wexler is one major improvement alone
Makes you think how many people are living a life like this
This is the moment where Vince Gilligan became Peter Gould
That actually kind of makes sense
Underrated xDDDD
This running joke are the best in the Breaking Bad Univers
Lame
This joke is really lame, but I like this, actually a smart one for a change!
2:07
Poor Gene, I felt his anxiety, it's sad to see the outgoing Saul Goodman turned into someone who hides and is full of fear :(
Imagine Heisenberg turning into Walter White.
This scene seems so somber and depressing. Gene is a shell of a man of who he used to be and hopefully in SO6, we can see where his journey will lead up to. Here's to another season of Better Call Saul! 🍻
Gene is 100% going to be in season 6
Yeah but the smell is wonderful
🍻
I still wonder how Kim fits in the story? I personally think she might have died before the events of breaking bad or she just leaves jimmy.
Black and white scenes mean something terrible happened in between this and the colorfoul scenes , breaking bad did this too
1:57 I love how the mixer sound gets more and more intense as the guy walks towards Gene, only for it to shut off when Gene realizes that the guy wasn’t walking towards him. It’s a very subtle detail that I love a lot
Do you really? Huh? HUH? HUH?????
@@jjr1728 what
Yeah true but this is very standard in film/tv not something they thought of
reminds of the bald guy that jesse thought walt hired near the finale
This is what makes the breaking bad universe amazing, you never really catch the small details but those details are really thoughtful
well, he did say this would be best case scenario
a depressing one, at that
It was this or decades of jailtime
@@forests.9597 jail time would be better then you always be looking at your shoulder wondering who’s out to get you who’s out to arrest you every second if your life you have to be careful because one mess up and it’s over
@@DailyDoseofShortsVideos wtf what kinda madman said you should sit 40 years in jail
@@DailyDoseofShortsVideos we're talking decades in maximum security, not a few months in county. I'd take managing a small town fast food store over that any day, even if it was in Omaha. And as Todd's uncle Jack showed us, your enemies can still get you in prison, they just won't have guns to do the deed quickly.

Something tells me by the end of season 6, Jesse is the only character who got a happy ending.
Bob said Sauls ending will be bitter sweet
@@thomasalvarez6456 I don’t know why he would say that. Shouldn’t he keep the audience in suspense?
Jesse got a bitter sweet ending cuz he lost Jane.
@@samerna5776 that sure is the worst thing that's ever happened to jesse isn't it
@@illwind Jesse killed Gale and that's why he got a bitter sweet ending. He is a free man but alone.
Walt is a killer and he died for what he did.
Saul was a bad person as a lawyer but he's not a killer.
So I think after the suffer, he deserves a happy ending with Kim.
The great thing about this show is that even if you watch this BEFORE watching Breaking Bad (which I did, by mistake), nothing is ruined for you as the viewer. The writers did an excellent job at making BCS a great prequel AND a great standalone show.
Agreed, made the same mistake
Honestly watching bcs will only exemplify the characters for you in breaking bad. And brba has way more action so you’ll probably in for a treat
@@L_Lawliet1907 I've seen BB twice already.
I have seen only 3 or 4 episodes of BB and I love, love BCS!
It's a prequel not sequel hence the reason why
It's funny how after the finale, you come to realize that Gene was better off in jail then he ever would've been in Omaha.
He no longer has to be paranoid about his identity.
ong he didnt have to hide his identity and he wasnt totally loney anymore
Who the Hell is Gene
@@lyricalmike7162 did u even watch the show
@@Crable2 Yeah I just finished it a couple days ago, and I gotta say it’s pretty misleading to call him “Gene” when that’s literally just a fake name
What is so interesting about a scene like this to me, is that it tells you what you really don't know about a person's life. To everyone else around, if they even bothered to notice him, he was just some middle aged dude working in a fast food joint in some mall. But the reality is a much different story. You can never judge a book by its cover.
Absolutely. Also, the message I’ve always gotten was how this is the big payoff for that lifestyle. Nonstop high level stress. Which if the law or the bad guys don’t get you, that certainly will.
@@jpmnky Correct. This is why it is always important to calculate the cost vs. benefit with every decision you make.
What may seem like a quick and easy payoff, usually has long term costs.
They say the age of the novel increased our emphasizing with other people. Jimmy could almost pull off a ghostwriter or telling his whole story online if he was careful about it. Starting in media res here has a touch of "Yeah, that's me just working a quiet job, pull up a seat and grab a cinnabon I'll tell you my story."
I wear Carhartt clothes typically shopping in a Walmart among obviously lower class urban Americans, only they all don’t know I’m actually I’m a pretty wealthy guy.
@@KeltonTitan My grandma had a friend like that. On the surface, he looked like a broken down broke Hippie rancher, who would be lucky to have as much as $5 in his pocket.
But the guy was a multi-millionaire who own huge stocks in oil, several gas stations all over the SF Bay Area, and a few nurseries which were his real passion.
Jimmy is forever stuck doing mindless, miserable, honest labour and can't go further. A Chuck force-ghost appears and smiles.
Gives me chills every time. Really shows just how devastating walt’s actions were on everybody.
Edit: I LITERALLY AGREE THAT JIMMY DID THIS TO HIMSELF AND THAT ITS HIS OWN FAULT FOR GETTING IN BED WITH WALT IN THE FIRST PLACE. IM TALKING ABOUT HOW WALTS ACTIONS MESSED UP THE ENTIRE CRIMINAL UNDERWORLD LMAO
@@samsebibog the gene scenes are after breaking bad tho wdym
@@samsebibog The only one dumb here is you, these black and white season openers are future scenes post Breaking Bad. The character you see here is neither Saul Goodman nor Jimmy, it's GENE.
@@aestheticugh what were they saying? the comments are deleted
Yeah but Saul wasn’t completely innocent either. It wasn’t Walt it was his way of being a lawyer. Jimmy started with good intentions. He broke bad in a sense to become soul and then worked with Walt so then it away him being Gene is kind of like Walt ending up in that house.
Walt ruined the life of every person he knew.
And Saul said this was his BEST CASE scenario!

I like how this flash forward is the very first scene in the show. To Breaking Bad fans, it's heartbreaking to see a once funny man become a broken shell and you wonder what his fate is going to be after what Walt did to him. To people who've never even seen Breaking Bad, it makes you wonder what the hell happened to Gene. Either way, it pulls you in, both as a sequel and a prequel.
His fate was either going to jail killed or start over without Walter
Despite how depressing this is for Saul/Gene, it’s a wholesome job he’s chosen. He might not be serving people as a lawyer, but he’s making the best cinnamons on earth, giving people delicious meals as they relax and enjoy their free time at the mall.
He’s providing good for his community, and I really like that.
Plus cinnabon is amazing
@@MacenW Probably getting paid at least semi decently as a manager
@@CitrusIsUs when he watches his old tapes I thought his house looked pretty nice too, at least he’s able to carve out a decent little life
You: “…but he’s making the best cinnamons on earth”.
Walt: “That’s setting the bar low”.
Lol just kidding.
The Whole Black and White scene is like a purgatory in Saul position
God after Fun and Games, this hurts way more than I thought it could. Saul Goodman was the persona Jimmy relied on to not combust from all the guilt weighing over him, and Gene has none of the extravagance, flair, or charisma. A man afraid of his own shadow has no room to be those things, God this show.
Yep, you summed it up nicely there. It's tragic mate.
I think that an ending "worse than death" would be just this. Jimmy/Gene living alone, and realizing that his best days are over, that he doesn't mean anything to anyone anymore. He can't do what he loved doing - being a lawyer and scamming people on the side, he doesn't have the one person he cared about the most, and he can't do anything outside of his safety bubble for the risk of being made (and his paranoia). Just a sad, miserable, empty shell of a man reminiscing of his glory days, knowing that he'll never be happy again.
He also has nothing to distract him from the immense guilt and trauma of his past, you can just tell he can't stop thinking about Marco, Chuck, Howard, and Kim. Probably Mike, Huell, and Francesca too. He has no one
@@denny1527 exactly. That's probably why he couldn't resist saying "better call Saul" to Jeff, even though Jimmy doesn't know what Jeff's intentions are, it's still a rare opportunity to feel even just a fraction of the rush he felt during his Saul Goodman days
@@denny1527 after seeing the ending to bcs with saul gone yeah jimmy got the best fate he could of gotten, while he is in prison for 86 years, he seem alot better, no longer have to run from his past. he in a place where people respect him.
jimmy looks so depressed :(

@@lilbuster6561 yes
i know he got his name changed twice but its kinda like muscle memory for me to call him jimmy

This scene really sums up my love for Better Call Saul AND Breaking Bad. I've seen so many other movies that follow the same pattern where those who participate in crime eventually meet their demise but not before we see countless scenes of them living the good life...with a little evil tossed in along the way that the writers manage to glorify while explaining how they achieved their kingpin status. BCS and BB doesn't do that!! Not only do they show the dark side of crime and the levels it takes one too, but it also shows the perpetrators never really being able to enjoy the fruits of their labor because they're constantly looking over their shoulder. Even the ones that get out of the life...as Gene is shown here...cannot for one second let their guard down!!
Agree but a show that will be forever be a masterpiece, The Wire.
@@dennysreyes7060 no one asked
Both true statements.
I guess, but innocent people have to look over their shoulders too

One of my favorite scenes in all of media. God, once you’ve watched all of Breaking Bad it really makes you think about how much collateral damage Walters actions have
Mr White is the devil
You mean sauls actions? Saul was the one who grew walts empire to what it was and came back even after walt fired him. Stop acting like walt was this evil guy but everyone else was a saint lol. Saul only ever cared about money and in some ways was even worse than walt

i remember being super excited every time a new season came out just because I wanted to see the Gene scenes. Feels so weird to know what happens in the end
Okay no spoilers as I’m only halfway through s2, but I was so disappointed when I caught on that Gene scenes were a once a season treat for the first few seasons of the show 😭 I genuinely think that once scene of Gene in his chair watching his old commercials may have changed my life 💀💀
la vida post secundaria
life after highschool
This strangely works as an effective Cinnabon commercial. The whole vibe is so bleak, but the Cinnabons look so good in comparison. It’s like the only relief in this purgatory of Gene’s own making.
I just realized that Gene gets up and starts tripping down memory lane only when the weatherman on tv starts talking about slippery roads, Slippin' Jimmy's specialty.
Cinnabon was a bad choice. Somewhere where people can see him working, where random people can see his face and interact with him. He needed to get a job that’s super lowkey like nighttime security, warehouse, ect, something where random civilians can’t interact with him
sure, but I think he needed to be around people at work, since he doesn’t have anyone at home.
goddamn 7 years ago we watched this scene, what a ride it was
7 years. Jimmy had them down to 7 years.
Yeah it premiered during my Junior year of High School! And it was cool for me cuz I was watching Breaking Bad for the first time at the time!

You think people who graduate Hustler's University have the ability to run a Cinnabon store? Don't give them that much credit
I work at a Cinnabon now it's kinda trippy re-watching these scenes and recognizing the equipment and stuff
I still can't believe this scene happens in literally the first episode. Shows how this show was planned in before hand even before of being released. Gilligan and Gould are genius
No it isn’t. They put him in a Cinnabon because it said he would be in breaking bad, it’s just like Lalo and Ignacio, they were concepts in breaking bad with brief mentions but nothing was ever supposed to come of them until this show was made
@@Michael-McCollum Just let the man be the show creators are genius either way
These characters were never nearly as fleshed out or even immediately intended for use in another show. i’d imagine BCS was something that began conception during the later seasons of breaking bad, maybe as early as 3

@@Michael-McCollum BCS was greenlit before Season 5 of BB even finished.

I'm definitely getting some to snack on during the season 6 premier. I imagine they'll see a noticeable sales spike come 18 April.
Just thought about this. Gene would be laid off now as that Cinnabon would be shutdown due to Covid-19.
That's why season 6 was delayed
The shop belongs to him and considering the show takes place sometime after 2010, who knows?
@@rickardkaufman3988 When do they say it belongs to him? I thought he just managed it

Fun fact - that's a live Cinnabon store (not a set) and Gene's coworkers really do work there in real life. Or at least they did at the time of filming.
The customers are all extras though.
This is the moment where Breaking Bad became Better Call Saul
He looks like Ned Flanders with less hair
S1 Walter looked more like Ned Flanders
The song foreshadows kim and jimmy's break up
My heart feels crushed rewatching this scene
Some folks during season 6 tryna act like the Gene storyline isn’t that important to the show as if this whole entire series didn’t begin with a Gene Scene💀
After going to college, then having covid shut down the school, graduating during that time, not seeing any of my friends again, and then getting a low paying job... I feel like Gene here.
Haha me too. Finished university in 2020, had to move back in with my parents and couldn’t get into the career I wanted because of Covid so now I work at a garden centre. Just lucky I’m not a wanted criminal like Gene
Felt that. Grades tanked and I was suspended on academic grounds from college in 2021. Since then I moved back in with my parents working as a DoorDasher and a retail associate and now even a manager at a clothing store when I used to be studying putting stuff in orbit, I feel like Gene from time to time.
Who’s here after the finale
Me 😔
Me 😭
eu 😔
Seeing this scene for the first time, was calming, yet unsettling, knowing the context of how Gene got here
Me asf after the group chat gets leaked
Giving me some Fallout vibes.
Fun Fact : This was filmed in a mall in albuquerque. They had a sign that told people that they were filming a pilot and might be recorded.
Almost all the people this aren't actors (I.E Actual Employees and the random peds), they're just random people who agreed to be part of filming and walked around, avoiding looking at cameras or staying in scene as Vince had his setup next to the escalators. Some people even had the chance to watch all this go down and meet the crew and Vince afterwards. Really jealous tbh.
Bob Odinkirk even got to learn how work at Cinnabon.
If it’s that’s the case, imagine if Saul was hallucinating the fact that is in Omaha and is actually still in New Mexico😂
Yes, that's a real Cinnabon store (not a fake set) and Gene's on-screen coworkers actually worked there in real life.
I’m from Omaha and I’m not aware of any mall that looks like this lol, so I was going to say
Probably one of my favorite scenes from the entire breaking bad universe. The way that everything you need to know is conveyed without a word is just amazing.
Watching this again feels like deleting your Completed Save Game and starting a New Game
Listen to my story... This may be our last chance...
Until the final episode I assumed these flash forwards were like 5-10 years into the future.
Turns out it’s all just a few months after Breaking Bad ended.
That was the direction I thought they choose. Maybe... Did they change it in the end?
Time to watch this show again for the third time. Its incredible.
Now i wanna work at cinnabon
Right!!! Lol I felt and said the same thing.
The music selection throughout this entire show was perfect.
The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.
This show is so great that you can feel how depressed Gene is
1:18 this is the moment when Gene cleaned an oven.
That is some heavy symbolism right there.
This truly makes a statement about today’s society
This is when Gene became Ovenberg.
Brilliant writing. Vince is a genius
Didnt understant, someone please explain
The cinnamon roll dough Gene is working with in this scene is actually a subtle reference to how, earlier in life, he was "rolling" in the "dough" he made as a criminal. Absolutely stunning attention to detail by Vince Gilligan.
Brilliant 👏

This show gone on for so long that Gene here looks so much younger
this was probably shot half a year after BB ended

“Hi Jimmy.”
Hi
This is an absolute masterpiece of cinematography. The framing is something that I have never witnesset before. I remeber seeing this fir the first time. So many rewinds an pauses where I would just glance at the frames like on a picture. All the seeries is eye candy.
You spoke my mind. It's just tough to narrow down to one season or episode. The whole series consistently has the cinematography setting new standards by every passing episode. The gene scenes are a whole new level and class apart!
I'm so scared to find out the reason why Jimmy went all the way to become Saul. Bob said in an interview that he's sure it has something to do with Kim and I'm scared she's dead or in jail for life for something they've done together or I don't know...I just want Jimmy to be happy and I'm afraid that won't be possible without Kim.😔
Hard thing isn't it, how real that is. To not be happy due to the absence of someone.
Well you were right. They did something nasty together.
I somehow got Radiation poisoning from my local Cinnabon i think hes a con man from Albuquerque
I don't wanna set the world on Fire!
Average Day in the Norway:
Ink Spots perfectly fitting in this scene
When Jimmy became Saul, Jimmy died. But when Saul became Gene, Saul never died. He's much more than just a persona or a nickname, it's kind of his life.
Also, one of the song's lyrics is "Oh what I'd give to see the face of you", if not coincidental, is probably Gene wanting to go back to Saul Goodman.
Has anyone else noticed that every ink spots song sounds the same?
Yeah lol
Indeed
One of the worst bands of all time lol, the song is pretty fitting here though but like you said, they could've used any of their songs because they're literally all the same song lol
@@isaiahromero9861 I like the ink spots, I just think it's funny that they sound the same save for into each life
@@Sumschmuck that's fair, I know they're a very beloved and important band but I just can't stand them personally lol, their songs just don't feel like they have any passion or creativity put into them, but that's why I think it works for this scene, so damn hollow and depressing
This gets sadder every time the series show us more of his past life.

@@MrFirefox ur sped
"From the place of your birth, to the ends of the earth, I've searched only to find, address unknown" Think about that lyric for a second. Jimmy is in Nebraska, whose birthplace is Nebraska? Kim's! If we assume that the use of that lyric was intentional, which it was (Vince Gilligan) it only means that Jimmy is searching for Kim. He's trying to find a lead, hint, anything that could help him find her. If my theory is correct then that can only mean Kim had to disappear using Ed or another method. So she's probably not dead.
dont look into deep into it lmao, it's literally just a song that fits saul's scenario
@@opfoca1oparrowmarinerecon154 it's just a little overanalysis. Better Call Saul has the ability to make storylines out of every small little detail so it is plausible.
jimmy never picked nebraska. when the disappearer tells him hes going to nebraska, he seemed caught off guard and confused
It's more likely hinting that people are on Jimmy's tail. The cab driver with ABQ connections making him in the mall strongly suggests this.
Cant remember what episode but saul said during the final season of breaking bad that "running away" wasnt a good option, then jokingly said that if he did the best he'd do is managing a cinnabon in the midwest. I remembered that and thought it was wildly good foreshadowing
It was one of last episodes when he was running away with walt
Window XP desktop when you are in the shutdown menu
There's only one of these scenes per "Better Call Saul" season, but like Harry Potter with the Dursley family, I look forward to these scenes every time. I'm anticipating these present day scenes coming around full circle in the show's sixth and final season.
Now normies everywhere bashing the Gene episodes
They don't know our pain of waiting for one episode of his present life
"Yeah bro, we will be friends forever"
Is it just or does this scene feel more and more depressing with every season
To me it's kinda the opposite, since we've still got four episodes left a part of me hopes that at least the Gene timeline will have a somewhat happy ending. But this is Better Call Saul, so I'm probably wrong.
But, with good behavior, who knows?
DUDE THAT LINE HIT SO HARD
Personally, I choose to believe that after the 2016 election Kim was like "You know what? I just completely forgot whatever lesson I was supposed to be learning!"

1:39 always liked this scene, the reflection on the escalators makes the floor look like a slide, but it's a a straight plunge downward lol
best scene in the entire show not gonna lie
They said in order to prepare for the role of gene, bob odenkirk actually worked at a real cinnabon store for 6 months.
And this is a real Cinnabon store. His onscreen coworkers really did work there.
In the first scene of the entire show, they pick a song that basically foreshadows what ultimately happens with Kim and Jimmy's relationship. Fans were speculating the whole time, yet here it was all along. I wonder if that was intentional or just a coincidence. Maybe it was originally referring to his longing for the world of Saul Goodman, but now the meaning has changed to be about Kim.
The first scene in the entire series takes place after most of the story was already over for Saul. Genius!
People seem to think Saul was on the run for absolutely forever and it took them years to catch him.
In reality, it was more like 7-8 months at most. He was caught just before Christmas 2010 and was sentenced by around March 2011.
