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."

“Keep telling the lie you’ve been telling.” What a poetically cruel fate for both of them-to reaffirm the lie that resulted in his death.
I mean to be fair it really on indirectly resulted in his death by making Howard be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Lalo wasn't some part of their plan. Like this could have also happened if howard came by after he made up with Jimmy.
Still I get how its tragically convenient/fitting.
@@DarkHarlequin Jimmy was the Guy who took Lalo out of the jail for a similar crime. He Denied Howard's job proposal but accepted Lalo's money even knowing that he was guilty. Jimmy is not guilty for Howard's death, but he is responsible for Lalo being on the streets doing whatever he wants. He took actions that caused Howard's death.
@@rafaelfernando5304 Also he was responsible for why Howard was there in the first place, no he is not 100% to blame, Lalo will always be the one who murdered Howard but it can't be denied, if not for Saul and Kim, Howard would not have died that night.
I was like damn ouch. Thanks Mike for telling the damn truth
It actually serves the overall story and saga of BrBa beautifully.
With all the sympathy in the world, they really did deserve to be talked to like they were reckless five year olds
Mike has no business being too judgy because honestly there's plenty of blame on him. Mike convinced Jimmy to get Lalo out on bail so Gus could kill him. Mike told Jimmy to lie to Lalo about the desert. Mike took his guys off Jimmy's place. Mike told Kim that Lalo was alive and strongly implied that he thought Jimmy shouldn't know that. This entire mess with Lalo is as much Mike's fault as it is Jimmy and Kim's.
@@MarkHogan994 Mike being responsible for something has never stopped him being judgy about it
Saul or Kim didn't kill Howard.
@@MarkHogan994 if mike didn't tell jimmy to lie to lalo about the desert, it would have put everyone in danger, that was the whole point of the lie. mike (under gus's orders) set up everything right for lalo to go down, It was gus's men that failed to kill him.
mike will surely blame himself for Howard because that's just how he works but just as Jimmy and kim couldn't have known howard would visit them at a terrible time, mike couldn't either. For as much as I love both Kim and jimmy their elaborate scheme on Howard inadvertently getting him killed prompts some judgement imo
@@MarkHogan994 Whether or not he's being hypocritical actually has no bearing regarding whether or not what he's saying is correct or factual.
You can tell Mike is not cool with innocent people getting killed.
He was cool with Drew Sharp’s trip to Belize.
@@KAzik10001 He was definitely not cool about it - he ripped into Todd for bringing a gun to a job without telling him, and looked as upset about disposing of the body as everyone else did.
The man is not a 'good' guy but he definitely isn't OK with innocent people getting caught up in what he's involved in
@@D4NJ4CKS Yeah, people seem to forget just how shocked and disgusted Mike looked with Gus when he killed Victor. He even points his gun at him briefly. It shows that Mike is still a human that isn’t entirely okay with people getting killed unless they deserve it.
@@D4NJ4CKS Exactly. Mike’s character development is lowkey my favourite of the entire show. He’s so depressed with guilt from getting Matty killed and from the life he lived as a dirty cop. Now he’s only living to leave a nest egg for Stacey & Kay. Which we all know never even ended up happening.
Fat Todd put Mike in a barrel 😭
Mike is like a father who’s reprimanding his children after they did something stupid
They didnt do anything wrong tho? How could they have known lalo was coming
But they still ruined howard’s life…
hehe something stupid
@@lilshrimp5781 They willingly ruined a man's life by making him look a cocaine addict
Haha something stupid
People were complaining that Lalo wasn’t present during Breaking Bad but he was right under Walt’s nose all those times.
i didnt see anyone complain about lalo not being in breaking bad.
@@person92906 shut up, let people enjoy things
I just realized that had Howard finished his rant literally 1 minute earlier, he would have probably passed by Lalo in the hallway, and neither would have any idea who the other was or what they were there to do….
@@krypticunlimited6925 i wonder what lalo would've done... he needed to kill someone to instill fear
@@krypticunlimited6925 I think lalo would’ve killed him either way because he was in the house the whole time. And hearing someone say he would expose jimmy’s secrets was probably enough for lalo to think that Howard needed to die so there wouldn’t be witnesses. I believe the moment he walked through that door he sealed his fate.
"Here is what's gonna happen" - Mike to Nacho, Jimmy, Kim, Walt, Jesse, Jesse's girlfriend and probably entire Albuquerque
“entire Albuquerque” 🤣🤣🤣
His signature quote
Lmaoooo he does say that quite often
Mike walks into a bar, goes up to the bartender: "Here's what's gonna happen."
@@missbelled6700 u take off that photograph from the board .... plz
"Keep telling the lie you've been telling" is one of the most hurtful things for both of them to live with.
You can even tell that Mike himself is disgusted at both of them, the way he delivers that line, how his voice quavers towards the end.
They deserve to hear that line 1000 times over, the one thing I never understood about Jimmy is why he keeps trying to take down Howard so frequently and why Kim is helping him? Jimmy is an absolute shitbag, he deserves this guilt.
They deserve it though.
@@EvilOttoJrProductionsnow we know why he doesnt like saul in the bb
@@EvilOttoJrProductionsyup, classic Mike on his high horse, ready to take his own moral failings out on those of others
Breaking Bad Mike all over the episode. His journey is nearly complete, Jimmy is up next. Masterpiece of an episode
This is the moment finger became Mike
Who de fuq is Finger?
This is the moment finger became Mike
You mean Saul. No more Jimmy.
Dude it really was. It seriously felt like I was watching an episode of Breaking Bad
I love how this alludes as to why Saul calls Mike to take care of Jesse after Jane overdoses.
And to think that saul was supposed to be the person to go help Jesse that day, but Bob odenkirk couldn't make it to that scene. According to what I've heard.
@@luckybyte this is true. Bob couldn’t make it to filming, I think because he was in How I Met Your Mother at the time, so they made Johnathan Banks a one off character. So much demand arose after S2 that Vince made him his own character
@@RedDeadDepressionist so really we have "how I met your mother" to thank for this character. Amazing
@@RedDeadDepressionist insane that one of the best characters ever written exists by pure chance and not because the writers had planned his existence from the get go
@@Rubiecat
Aaron Paul being good at acting too. As Jesse was supposed to be killed in season 1.
And MAJOR props to Gilligan and Gould for being humble enough to not be afraid to change their writing instead of sticking to what they want (idiots like Rian Johnson).
At least it wasn't a complete loss for Saul and Kim. They at least got a new refrigerator.
Stainless steel too. Nice.
And a new car because Lalo’s car now belongs to them
@@nont18411 wow, surely they excited to drive it
@@tyrionstark380 yeah and Lalo even left a little gift in the glovebox. Such a wholesome guy
Nice Philosophy. See good in bad, i like it!
this is the point where Mike decides Jimmy is a good ally because of his skills as a lawyer, but it isn't much more than that and doesn't deserve the respect he had for him episodes after bagman, some people question why Mike seems to be less friendly towards Jimmy in Breaking Bad even after all the things they did together, this is the answer, Jimmy and Kim did a purely evil thing, that got an innocent person who had integrity, a wife and a job out of the game, killed and even got his rests buried alongside the darkest of criminals, in a methlab, the one thing Mike absolutely hates seeing happening, to the extreme. Mike probably even saw and knew Howard because of the time he worked as the attendant of the courthouse.
I think you're absolutely right. I remember thinking that Jimmy and Mike in BB never really acted like they had survived days in the desert together. But this betrayal of trust to counteract that is perfect
Not exactly their fault Howard had to go and ‘talk’ to them and end up at the wrong place at the worst possible time imaginable. He could’ve just taken his L and gone about his life never interacting with them ever again and he didn’t.
@@TheGreatSalsaMan Tell me again when you only have one thing you hold dearly & do passionately (the job), but then someone destroy everything you've worked hard for and years of time to built just for the sake of prank, and you know the one who do it anyway.
TLDR; get a job
@@daf0076 You mean the one his daddy built and he inherited? 😂
I have a high paying job btw 😘
Both Mike and Jimmy are disgusting and horrible persons (and I love them both as characters haha) Jimmy scolded Mike for the death of Fred Whalen. As much as Mike is disgusted with what he and Kim did to Howard. In reality all of them are guilty for the death of Howard.
I woke up, I found her, that’s all I know.
Again.
I woke up, I found her, that’s all I know
Slaps
I WOKE UP I FOUND HER THAT'S ALL I KNOW
I was waiting for Mike to slap both of them tbh 😂
I love how Jimmy keeps looking at Kim multiple times throughout this entire scene, but she doesn’t glimpse at anyone even once. She just stares at the floor. And that’s how you know it’s the beginning of the end.
Just empty and nothing left
Which is rich from her. Acting like it's Jimmy's fault. It was her idea to go after Howard. Even Jimmy thought it wasn't necessary but she convinced him to. She's evil just like everyone else.
@@Ready-ForTheEnd im sorry what?? How did you conclude she thinks it jimmys fault?? Like she said herself in the next episode they are both to blame and together they cause things like this
@@Ready-ForTheEnd what a comically stupid assumption "she's looking at the ground because she blames Jimmy" LMFAO
@@Ready-ForTheEnd"acting like it's Jimmy's fault"
I don't see that at all, what do you mean?
Man that shot of Jimmy watching Howard’s body being loaded into the fridge is just so chilling and gut-wrenching.
badum tss
Godfather reference
@@michaelkaludov3678 no pun intended 😅
He's thinking "damn you Howard i liked that fridge"
I got really shocked watching that. How cold and raw that looks. No pun intented.
Someone should make compilation of mike saying "here's whats gonna happen"
Is that so?
Yeah, Why?
LMAO good detail
You’re done.
That, and "we need more guys", "it takes three guys", "we bring our best guys", etc., etc.
That final shot of the bodies in the ground was so chilling, I actually got goosebumps
Keep it to yourself, then.
@@ashmitkumar3429 keep talking like that and ill give you such a big, devilish kiss to shut you up
I laughed tbh I think cause of the memes I knew were going to come of it
@@jumbojack2701 I really have no idea how someone could laugh in that scene bruh. Nothing funny about it hahahaha
@@jumbojack2701 are u 5 years old?
A lot of great call backs in this episode. This is just like Mike's introduction when he's telling Jesse what to do about Jane.
Ikr I noticed 4 callbacks first watch too. Very cool!
Yeah, that's why Saul immediately calls Mike. He's familiar with the situation.
"You woke up. You found him. That's all you know"
@@thiagoporto7879
"He came over, he left, thats all you know!"
@@kikrinman1450 to think it was gonna be also saul the one doing it but bob had to act in how i met you mother is just mind blowing
I want mike to brief me every morning about what I need to do
Bro... FR SAME
I think we'd all be a little better organised.
Haha! So true. I'd go about each day so focused.
you want instruction here you go first thing you do go to the shower. get in and start the water no you don't need to know Why.get in the tub grab the soap and throw it at the ground at the bottom of the tub do you hear loud sound reach down get this soap what was it for for your prison life . Now no more questions not get up get dressed. and we never had this conversation before good keep telling the lie that you always been telling sincerely mike
here's what's gonna happen. you're gonna get up at 8:15 sharp. no earlier, no later. you're gonna relieve yourself and wash your hands, then you're gonna pour yourself a bowl of cheerios. a spoon will be placed in the drawer beneath the counter. now, once you're done eating, brush your teeth for about 2 minutes- no more, no less. finally, you'll take a shower and put on your deodorant. do you understand? i need you to tell me you understand, please.
2:46 “You know how they say it’s been a pleasure? Well it hasn’t”
He was gonna save it for the next time
I love that god father scene
*thats the story you were setting up for this guy yeah?*
Absolutely brutal
driving it home - ultimately they're responsible, if not directly so.
Mike gave more respect to Howard than Chuck, Jimmy and Kimmy ever did
But how did Mike know about their scheme?
@@bikilone mike has been following them with his guys to protect them
@@pkboolean And they somehow missed Lalo, a guy they set up that whole security for in Gus' house.
"...you keep telling the lie that you've been telling." 💔
Oh Howard 😢
I feel like Mike didn’t have to mention the coke in the upholstery. He did it just to remind them what they did.
for sure
@Imad Ghazi I think it's because Gus had people watching Jimmy & Kim.
@Imad Ghazi when mike meets kim telling her about his men that were following her he says something like "i do know you two have been up to some things you'd rather keep a secret"
It works both as a dig and him being purely informative
Him adding that there was cocaine in Howard's car also came across to me that he was doing everything in his power to keep them out of jail, and better yet, that so long as they do their part and do all the right acting, they'll stay free. It's like saying "You cannot give me any advice that will help me help you. I knew what you two were up to and its already been taken into account. Focus on keeping up the act yourselves, because that's all you gotta do to stay out of jail."
He's saying he's reliable and they have to do their job too.
Jonathan Banks deserves an Emmy for this role, and it's a shame they didn't even nominate him as his last time as Mike
He was actually nominated for one but lost to Peter Dinklage. Funny enough Dinklage said during his acceptance speech that he thought the other nominees were more worthy of it, and he specifically pointed Banks' performance in the Five-O episode.
Season 6 part 2 will be eligible for next year's Emmys
They still can. Season 6B is for next year’s nomination.
@@nont18411
And they still didn’t win…………😢
Hats off to Jonathan Banks. In this whole monologue, Mike emits so many emotions toward these two-incredulity, contempt, concern and above all a threatening menace. In every word, flatly and calmly delivered, you can feel how much anger he has and the fight inside of him to keep it professional. At least Nacho was in the game-he got dealt a bad hand, but he was a player in the game. He knew the risks. Mike knew Howard wasn’t- and he obviously knew the con they were pulling and didn’t approve of it. Mike’s no saint, but he has a code-no innocent bystanders get hurt. And now he has to clean up a mess that wouldn’t exist if not for a lie against such a person, and in doing that he has to trash the man’s reputation completely after being gunned down because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. And while Mike isn’t above lying, he would only do it for what he thought was a good reason. The whole thing with Howard? Mike would consider that contemptible and juvenile. And he makes them feel it here. Banks is utterly brilliant
That captures it perfectly.
Watch Kim's face as Mike is talking. Brilliant.
Traumatic/guilt gaze
@@Fvandermolen yet Jimmy is looking around at her. Worried about her maybe? I'm curious to what the filmmakers intended behind that decision.
@@Dilmahkana He just realized she had a lot more information that she didn't share with him. He's not happy about it either.
@@whyohwhy9679 Maybe. That's definitely a possibility :)
@@whyohwhy9679 Nah, he's checking up on her because he's relatively desensitized about stuff, but Kim was in complete shock. She was supposed to be the one who does everything right in the relationship and she ended up in his level. He's worried
It all makes sense now... THIS whole situation is why Mike and Saul stay on "business terms" than becoming friends in Breaking Bad.
I need a motivational app with Mike’s voice to basically tell me how to get through the tasks of my day
His voice is very persuasive.
ok, this is what's gonna happen...
This has to be one of my favorite scenes in the whole show. The facial expressions of Kim and Jimmy makes them look like two kids that have been caught by their parents for stealing candy out of the parents candy bag. It's such a weird, yet suitable, reaction after the events that they were a part of.
The pranks were very childish so yeah it makes sense
They’ve had flashes of a very childish expressiveness over the course of the series. At their toxic cores, they are broken children, and it comes out as they are uninhibited. You can see a very childish irritation and defensiveness in Kim particularly when Howard confronts them. Howard also calls Jimmy “a child” earlier in that same episode. I absolutely love that underlying characterization for these two. It’s very true to life, I feel.
Lalo’s death is one of the great justifiable ones in my book, so fast and unbelievable yet realistic and grim. I’m intrigued to see what the next 4 episodes bring
Should have died in the compound last season. They just dragged out his role for too damn long.
@@KAzik10001 Definitely. Overtime he sort of turned into a filler character instead of a side. But the burial scene had so much contrast between the two characters yet they ended up in the same grave.
5*
Hell nah. Killed him too soon.
The last episodes are surely going to bring Walt and Pinkman.
I like that Mike basically hammers the point home to these two: "YOU ARE BAD PEOPLE"
Kind off hypocritical but explains the lack of respect Mike has for Jimmy in BB, he doesn't like it when innocent people gets killed
@@olofacosta3192 I say mike is worse than Saul
@@Local_commentor nah Saul is a horrible person with no moral capacity in his head, Mike is just a criminal but he’s not a bad person.
Well mike is definitely a bad dude, but he draws the line when it comes to innocent folks.
@@kennywelter9886 not innocent people, just people who aren't criminals. he killed innocent people that were criminals.
this is actually the biggest con for kim and jimmy, they did all of that to get a new stainless steel refrigerator
Mike should have capped it off by telling them they didn’t have enough stickers.
Turns out Chuck was right when he said “you think this is bad, this chicanery?”
It was only prophetic bc of how toxic Chuck was any time Jimmy tried to bridge the gap between them. If he'd tried to not be such a dick, I think there're more than a fair chance that Jimmy's path isn't nearly as destructive. He created Saul partly to never have to think about Chuck again.
The worst thing Lalo did was ask Kim to put her shoes on
You know the BCS community hated him from that point and he deserved to die in the same episode
😏
boooooooo
Vince is malding rn
FEET
That last look of Jimmy seeing Howard put in the fridge is so chilling and gut-wrenching. Bob Odenkirk's performance is telling us this is the first moment Jimmy truly begins to lose himself into the Saul Goodman persona..
Mike: "Today you're Rhea Seehorn and Bob Odenkirk."
Excellent comment! ❤️
They do look a lot like them tbf.
you can tell just how disgusted and annoyed Mike is of Jimmy and Kim’s petty actions and indirectly causing Howard’s death, he was even talking to them like if they were bratty, spoiled, irresponsible and reckless four year olds with a tone of reluctance to help and newfound contempt for the two
So it’s their fault he was there when a cartel boss just happened to show up in a bad mood?
@@TheGreatSalsaMan in a way yes
@@TheGreatSalsaMan Once you're in, you're in. Lalo will always gonna be there anytime, but Howard, without the prank, wouldn't even be there at all that night
Didn’t Mike tell Kim he would have men watching the condo? It’s not all on Saul and Kim
@@daf0076 Since this scene does include a direct visual reference to The Godfather...
"I spent my life trying not to be careless -- women and children can be careless, but not men."'
Messing with Howard they way they were was careless. Cartel lawyers cannot be careless.
Really felt like Mike was speaking for the audience to a degree here, silently judging these two for trying to drag Howard with the coke story.
I mean, he doubled down on that story though.
No dude
mike has a lot of nerve to judge anyone
Mike is based, you are soy
Yooooooo Saul Goodman in Komi Republic
I love how when mike opens the door, Jimmy sees Howard's body. Mike notices Jimmy and holds the bedroom door open and looks at jimmy like, "This is your fault" but never actually says it. Just amazing facial expressions by the actors and directing.
I like how Mike refers to the new fridge as "stainless" absolving Kim and Saul of Howard's end.
Vince said after season 6 is done you'll look at Breaking Bad much different... as crazy as it is... I don't even think we've gotten to the part he was thinking of when he said that
Some of it we do, like the corpses below the lab where jesse and walt goof around and the reason why mike has muuuch less respect for saul during bb. This whole howard situation got mike seeing how low the "stupid lawyer" who helped him is going
Seeing Saul in his final form this episode was actually kind of sad/depressing, knowing everything we know. Wasn't a hype moment like many thought. But still great storytelling by Gilligan
Sabrosito is Azor Ahai.
@@thee_morpheus Ya exactly
Now we know why Mike has no respect for Jimmy in Breaking Bad.
One, in a way, he does have respect for him. And two, what exactly is your "why" here?
He still have some respect for Jimmy but not that much left now
@@spacemann1425 because he framed an innocent man
Not exactly but maybe yea.
He knew how to press his buttons.
I just finished a re-watch and noticed this that time when he made Saul give Jesse's address to Walt even when being his lawyer
now i wish mike carried out that threat he made to saul over Jesse's address
Pay attention to Jimmy while Mike is talking , he keeps looking at Kim especially when Mike says “Keep telling the lie you have been telling” there’s a pause where Jimmy really looks at her cause this is her lie. This in reality was her plan ( not the consequences ) but the plan in general was hers and Jimmy didn’t wanna originally go along with it.
...and it could be kind of a verbal Easter egg. We know little about Kim's past. Could "the lie you've been telling" strike a chord with Kim? The lie she's been LIVING?
@Damian Miller,
The guilt is growing quickly within.
I'm calling it at the end of the next episode Jimmy gona find her lifeless body hanging on a rope
I think Jimmy glances at Kim because he’s wondering how Mike knows about the lie they’ve been spinning about Howard. He had no idea Mike had been following them both and knew about their shenanigans.
Or at least that's what Jimmy said at the time. But, once a con gets a-rollin.........
Spiritually speaking, this scene is one of the most powerful from the whole series: Mike is like a cosmic father talking to two grown childs who thinks their actions do not affect anybody. You can clearly see that both of them have childhood traumas unsolved, and they are projecting them in the whole society by ''acting like childs'' without even noticing it. Just goes to show that even though you have freedom, you have to earn it.
You know you've gone too far when even Mike is disgusted by your actions.
Every time Mike says "Here's what's gonna happen", it in fact does happen! Bravo Vince!
Everybody gangsta until mike says: here‘s what’s gonna happen…
Man, they did Howard dirty. The music when Mike took his shoes and ring, damn, felt bad. Incredible series!
I love how Jimmy keeps looking over at Kim but you can just see the monumental guilt she's carrying. Her making that u-turn 2 episodes ago directly led to Howard's death.
Poor Howard. He didn't deserve any of that...
@jcorb So?
This feels so much like a mirror of Mike's first scene in Breaking Bad.
Having watched their arcs in “Better Call Saul,” the really fascinating thing I notice about Saul and Mike in “Breaking Bad” is how they revert back to their original personalities. In “BCS,” Jimmy turns into Saul while Mike becomes a jaded hitman. In “Breaking Bad,” Saul gradually reverts to his Jimmy persona while Mike, through his relationship with Jesse, gradually starts to become more emotionally open and vulnerable again. It’s really poetic when you think about it. Both characters try to change in response to their cynical perceptions of the world and themselves, but they end up being forced to face who they really are at the end of the day.
2:20 Notice how Saul says "I understand.", while Kim says "It never happened."
Subtle.
if you want to be cutesy about it, where both of them end up in the flashforward corresponds to each other’s line here. kim’s life is forever altered by the gravity of howard’s death and her own responsibility for it, while jimmy tries to bury it and everything else
I like that mike also has some guilt because If his guys had been watching Howard wouldnt have died
I think Mike didn't confirm Lalo's death to Saul and Kim because they didn't deserve a clorsure after what they did to Howard.
The last thing that needs to be made about this universe is a fake documentary about everything that happened. The only people interviewed should be some of the survivors because realistically others wouldn't talk. But they need to play it like it's a documentary of a real crime.
Not gonna lie, that does sound like it would be pretty dope
Why aren't you getting more likes for this comment?
There is one already I beleive.
Absolutely phenomenal idea
Literally already happened
you know your problem got solved when mike says here's what's gonna happen
Take a shot everytime mike says “heres whats gonna happen” in both series
Lalo's death feels to me like the most "what now?" Moment of the series.
I think, in their relationship, Jimmy somewhat appreciated that Kim was more morally upright than him. Sure, he loved little schemes with her but always looked for her opinion on things he does and respected her. Lately, he hadn't been happy about Kim joining the dark side, most evident from his reaction to how she blackmailed and intimated the Kettlemans, that's something Jimmy would never do.
And now, Kim was totally going to kill an innocent person (from her perspective) to save Jimmy's life. I don't think Jimmy knows that yet, and I think he's really not gonna like how low Kim has dropped her morals.
Either this will repel him from her, or push him further towards being the Saul that's okay with suggesting stabbing Badger in the chow line.
Jimmy sent Kim so that he can put her out of danger's way. He knew Mike would be waiting for her there and she would be safe, while he'd be unsafe with Lalo.
I think Howard's death is going to knock Kim back to her senses. She had some guilt over what they did to Chuck back in the day even though Chuck deserved it and they had no choice.
With Howard, she really didn't think it was gonna be all that serious. But now the guy is dead and she'd partly responsible.
I think she'll now realise how bad of an influence Jimmy has been on her, a question Jimmy himself has asked her before. She leaves Jimmy.
@@spacemann1425 I don't think he knew anything about Mike being there. He didn't even know whom he was sending to kill. He would have no idea what it was about. He wanted her to flee or go to the cops, knowing that Lalo would kill him for it.
@@amandeepdash9014 I think he understood who Lalo was talking about when he said "black, with glasses, looks like a librarian". He had met Fring when he was patrolling for Mike. He knew about Fring pretty well.
I think the revelation that she knew Lalo was alive and never told him is going to have an even bigger impact on their relationship.
We all need someone like Mike, tells us what to do when things are not going right for us.
i could really use a slap in the face from mike right now
Sir..you are so right.
It's tough to see that Mike's admiration for Kim may have diminished a bit after Howard's death.
a bit ?
One thing I love is that Mike knows these two well enough to get through to them by using movie references ("You're Meryl Streep, you're Laurence Olivier")
I just realized that had Howard finished his rant literally 1 minute earlier, he would have probably passed by Lalo in the hallway, and neither would have any idea who the other was or what they were there to do….
If howard also showed up an hour later he would have lived
The fact that this was not a wakeup call for Jimmy is mind blowing.
Yeah that's what makes it worse for me. I can't really feel any sympathy for him feeling broken and depressed post breaking bad, knowing that despite any guilt he shows here, he is still going to be Saul Goodman eventually going about his life like nothing happened.
Howard thought the same thing right?
If he didn’t learn his lesson after what happened to Chuck (or their father, for that matter), he’d never learn after Howard.
I think Jimmy became less aggressive toward his competition.
saul doesnt pull huge cons anymore in breaking bad he is just a sleazy criminal defense lawyer. he only wanted a cut of walt's empire cuz it was easy money for laundering walts cash.
Man what a good episode to kick off the season continuation, really didn't expect them to clean up all the Lalo and Howard situation in one episode; really hoping we can see Kim's fate soon and more of Gene in the coming episodes.
Mike hates the mop up after things don't play the way he wanted or hoped. It happened with Ziegler . It happens with Jesse in BB with Jane. He hates when procedure doesn't happen. His go to line is always.. here's how it's going to play out so when it doesn't he takes it as a personal sleight. He does care. He has compassion but he is still a hitman.
@@agent3976 actually he's neither a hitman nor an enforcer, he's a cleaner. that plus a security consultant
They made up a lie and set up Howard to derail his career and now that he got killed and they were traumatically forced to watch, they have to use that lie as the cover. Punishment fits the crime.
Howard led a legal life,
Lalo led a very illegal one but in the end both shared the same grave.
Hits different...
"The Fly" makes a lot of sense now doesn't it?
"You woke up, you found her, that's all you know"
1:26 there's that hint of disgust and lack of respect Mike has in his tone whenever he interacts with Saul on Break Bad...
Or Walt after season 3
Mike: "You woke up, you found him, that's all you know".
Jimmy/Kim: 😳
"We woke up, we found him, that's all we know."
I know it's a very important scene where they taste the consequences of their actions but they look like they were caught smoking cigarettes and were sent to the principal office.
When Mike asks you to sit, you sit.
I don't think I'll ever look at the superlab the same way ever again.
You can see Mike is like a dissapointed father to both of them while when he's talking to Jesse after Jane died, he's like a concerned father to him.
Mike already told Jimmy once that the situation with Lalo was handled. Them this happened. No wonder he was so paranoid in Breaking Bad when Walt and Jesse took him to the desert
Hearing Mike say Howard's name felt so powerful considering they never met, almost like two completely different shows crossover.
Actually. He probably knew him. He worked in the court house and Howard went a Lot of times
@@jankasolis61 yeah that did occur to me actually. But it's just strange since we never saw them meet.
Mike has dealt with every main character in Better Call Saul just like Jimmy
2:54 This is the moment Howard Hamlin became a fridge
1:10
“You woke up, you found her, that’s all you know.”
It is nice to see why Mike has little to no respect for Saul by the time we meet him in Breaking Bad. Saul is a paycheck and more money for Mike & Kaylee, nothing more. Howard wasn't in "the game" and that flies in the face of Mike's personal code. Great writing.
the german guy wasn't 'in the game' either, nor was the travelwire guy, or the bystandard the salamanca's killed. Saul didn't even want to work for Lalo smh.
Its literally mike and gus’ fault Lalo was able to reach sauls apartment
@@sp5ism Yeah. The point is Howard wouldn't have been there if not for Kim and Jimmy's scummy scheme. Mike definitely has no respect for Saul in Breaking Bad and this was the first of many reasons.
@@sp5ism Werner was pulled into the game.
@@simpvanas Yeah but they pulled all men off of Sauls apartment even though Lalo couldve easily come there (he had before). He couldnt even send 1 guy bruh
Imagine being the guys cleaning up that body. They don’t know the people who live there. They just treat it like a job. I imagine they are dead inside to do work like that.
I mean there are real jobs like that. First responders have to deal with that constantly.
That scene with Gus standing over Lalo made me realize this show already surpassed Breaking Bad
Close, but not quite
It depends in the last 5 episodes
@@sergiosalazar8702
It already has in many ways
@@TihetrisWeathersby I agree man.. in a way this show has everything Breaking Bad does but it's more grounded and more personal and more real. In some ways the whole Howard story was the most traumatic thing in this universe.
You’re just hyped. It’s good but not better. Just take an aspirin and fever will come down.
@@TihetrisWeathersby The writing and direction has, but not overall as a series
It's cool because we weren't supposed to get a Mike ermantrout for the entire breaking bad universe they introduced Mike to the story when Jane died because Bob odenkirk wasn't available for the episode, it's cool how that worked out
I am appreciative of this channel for getting parts of the new episodes uploaded here. AMC can’t keep episodes on their app for more than a few weeks.
It literally didn't register for me until now that that's HOWARD they're putting in the fridge. Jesus.
"I...I...what's going on?"
*slap*
"I woke up. I ate breakfast. That's all I know. Say it."
"What's - what's going on? Where's Uncle Hank?"
*slap*
"Say it, Waltuh. I won't ask you again."
"Ow, but m-my name is Flynn... Can I get back to my breakfast, p-p-please? "
"Wh - wh - where's - where's Mom and Dad? I - I can't... believe you'd just... not t - tell me!"
Yet another brilliant "Here's what's going to happen"
some of the best television ive ever seen
1:28 Jimmy’s brief look up at Mike is top tier acting. Pure shock and delirium
This is the first time Mike, Kim and Jim are in one scene together.
The only time between the 3 most important characters of the show
Now I see why Mike doesn’t like jimmy at BB
Im left with no words
I don't envy those guys carrying that fridge with a body stored in it. I mean, a fridge alone would be a bitch to carry, let alone Howard Hamlin along in it.
Right? And it has to be two guys. Can’t be more than that cause THAT would be fishy.
AND down 3 flights of stairs, lol.
Howard :(
i remember this scene when it first came out...chills... this is when saul became jimmy godman
2:43 Just the way he slightly rolled his eyes, and couldn't look away from them fast enough. He thought he'd seen everything possible in terms of human evil and stupidity, until that day when it had sunk in for him what Kim and Jimmy had been up to.
“You hurt people, over and over, and then there’s this show of remorse. And in the end, you’re gonna hurt everyone around you.”
Chuck was right about Jimmy.
