@@fuffilicious It's a front, some people make chicken some people tell you to reboot your computer... but at the end of the day both are pushing 100 tons of meth a year.
I love this seen though because his apathy here hints at a more complex relationship. Im convinced Mike only got involved with this because Saul let him know about this amazing Meth cook and Gus wanted to check him out. The thing is Gus was obviously not sure about him and Mike didn't like him. It was only until Gus became truly desperate did he meet and agree to Walter.
He thinks he is in the right though, he basically went from an everyman to Heisenberg and didn't see the changes as they happened. It's like people you've known most of your life are changing but you'll still recognize them as long as you see them pretty frequently but if they are gone for a long period of time (say 1 to 5 years) and change as they are gone your not gonna recognize them as well. Walt is still Walt even in the end but his personality has gradually changed which is why he fights to make people think he's still the same man. He sees himself as himself as others view him as a monster.
"She snuck off the reservation to get some dirty, damp and deep" How you gonna say that to an unstable, terminally ill meth cook and not expect to get attacked?
considering the situation, adultery was the least of his problems. I think saul finds the irony in that if skyler wasnt tied in so deep with ted and the money, she might have snuck out to the cops but because she's involved now too because of it then they know they are safe because of it
Hes an advisor. Hes trying to advise walt that skylar isnt going to the cops, shes going to the streets where she belongs. Hes just trying to make walt laugh. Besides, he tried to get walt some hookers so he would get over his wife.
2:07 I love how Mike looks down and acknowledges the Scythe symbol that was drawn on the street from the cousins, so he cautiously looks around back and forth, knowing that the cousins could be down the street watching walts house right then and there at that very moment. But he looks around not just for his safety but also for Walts. It’s crazy tho how Just little details in breaking bad that made it such a good show. “You know Walter It never hurts to have someone watching over your back” lol such a powerful line because if it weren’t for Mike watching over Walt The Cousins would of hacked Walt to pieces.
It’s weird that in the whole series, those two guys came by far the closest to killing Walt, as any character on the show. Next of course being the Neo-Nazis in the final scene cause Walt’s plan could’ve easily failed
"Great line of work by the way.... real upstanding field" That's a hell of a lot of smack talk coming from a meth cook that has a habit of getting rid of people that are in his way....
As a Walter, I hate being called Walt. Walt makes me sound like I'm 60. Even though Walter sounds more formal, it also sounds more youthful than Walt. So while I may prefer Walter, it kind of comes off as being disrespect because Walter acts like a child compared to Gus and Mike (and Saul) that it's a dress down from them.
@@Mahangelafy At least they are better than a high school chemistry teacher who poisoned a child, got his brother in law killed, got a young guy imprisoned by Nazis, imprisoned a guy in someone else's basement and then killed him, lied to Jesse that Gus poisoned Brock, bombed a nursing home for the elderly. So yeah, Saul and Mike are far better than that chemistry teacher.
What I like even more than the line itself is how oblivious Saul is to the effect such a line would have on a husband... just nonchalantly continues 'on the other hand.''
@@serdareski3325 my understanding is that it's a joke reference to pocahontas, a native American, snuck off her reservation (native Americans were losing their lands to the US Army due to modernisation and gentrification, and were herded into reservations as a result) to get together with Captain Smith of the US army, who belongs on the other side. Edit: it is a phrase abt someone's wife committing adultery, the term "reservation" is used to refer to a Native American sneaking off her reservation to have sex with the immigrants
1:54 by this point Walter’s: - killed two people - let Jane die - indirectly caused a plane crash that killed an additional two hundred people - sold almost 100 pounds of crystal meth
He also lied to Jesse about Jane just so he could have Jesse around to be his lapdog. Also showed no remorse for Jesse's friends Combo getting killed and Badger getting arrested.
Fans who love both shows are like Mike. "Ironically Breaking Bad has worse supporting characters but fans still claim its the greatest show of all time. That's loyalty. On the one hand my show Better Call Saul has Kim as a supporting character and she's not a whore like Skyler but on the otherhand- Breaking Bad fans get mad and start yelling because they have no defense for Skyler being worse than Kim.

@@charlessutherland274 I think Jimmy should have taken Howard as a role model, not Chuck. Howard always respected Jimmy and had his back, but Jimmy projected every negative feeling about Chuck onto Howard and his "high class lawyer" world. If he had become Howard's apprentice, he would have become a respected and successfull lawyer.
@ to be fair, most of Season 1 Howard is the main antagonist to Jimmy until it’s revealed that Chuck was working against Jimmy. And even so, Howard was complicit in doing what Chuck said. That’s why Howard tried offering Jimmy/Saul a job in S5.
Incredible how Walt never realized how close he got to the most unpleasant encounter ever with the twins. Mike literally saved his ass by informing Gus about what they were about to do. That's why Mike said that at the end of this clip, as the car revealed the axe sign on the ground which he didn't even notice.
Watching this after the new Better Call Saul episode really puts a spin on this all. Saul completely downplays a man's marriage falling apart because that's what he had to do to cope with his own divorce.
Yeah, you see him look down and then start scanning the neighborhood. First time he seems genuinely concerned. Meanwhile, we're all basically Walt just wondering when exactly he's going to get into the car door he just opened. Friggin' brilliant.
What it took Walter 5 seasons to say Mike said effortlessly. Mike and Gus really were better classes of criminal than Heisenberg and to an extent better classes of people than Walt.
@@rover5058 Half true. He wanted his downfall. He wanted the world to know what he'd done. That's what it was always all about. Not about money, but about proving that he could make it. That he could build a billion dollar industry like Grey Matter, that it was him. So that was ego yes, but he didn't fall because of his ego. He chose that. Because the world couldn't have known what he was capable of without it. That's why in the very first promotional material it said "Remember the name." It was never about maintaining what he'd built. He just wanted it built to prove he could. That's what I love about this show.
@@rsdillbot3646 Howard is the only one out of those guys that deserved better. He deserved to have better company surrounding him for how much he gave back
Walt and Jesse: *need protection, got police breathing down their necks and savage drug cartels on their case* Also them: *reject literally every single person who can ensure security*
At 0:44, how Walt attacks Saul makes me laugh every time. It’s timed perfectly. There’s like a fraction of a second delay where Saul’s dirty, damp, and deep commentary gets to Walt, and then he just goes Heisenberg on poor Jimmy. 😂
No, its put in evidence multiple times that mike only kills people with a reason, if it was someone like Tuco, then I would agree that would be a killing plot armor,happily it wasn't the case.
Mike does have opinions on his work and the people he works with, bit like a true professional Mike doesn't let those opinions and feelings get in the way, he was hired to do something, so he does it, nothing more, nothing else, the employer doesn't give a shit about emotions they care about results
I have seen Better Call Saul, saul dealt with Tuco, Nacho, and Lalo and none of them touched him once and here he is getting beaten by a high school chemistry teacher. What an irony!
I love how Mike doesn't even get mad with Walter when he questions the morality of his labor. Ignoring the fact that Walter doesn't even have the right to say anything (he's just as bad as Mike), Mike elegantly avoids the burn by saying: "Yeah, well. I enjoy it" And then later in the series (in one of the final scenes), Walter finally admits that all that he did was for himself in front of Skyler. Mike simply understood this much earlier than Walter: "Looking up for excuses when you do something wrong is pointless, because it won't validate you ever. Better just accept it, and do it proudly"
I'd argue Mike actually does do this solely for his family whilst happening to be good at it. We're it not for his daughter in law and granddaughter, I imagine he'd be happy working the toll booth to this day
@@CrumbsLamond I think he referred to the jobs he does for Jimmy when he said he enjoys it. Would make sense as he is getting a break from all the cartel stuff
Mike didn’t give a shit about Walter, he thought he was a egomaniac and a liability (rightfully). He got paid to bug his house. I still hate that Walter killed him however.
Yeah, you forgot the part in between where Mike was seconds away from blowing Walt's brains out in the lab in cold blood. Mike didn't give a crap about Walt. He was looking after Gus' investment.
@@drpufosoide5422 he wasn’t waiting to “blow his brains” either. Jesus can’t you lot just understand he’s only interested in getting paid to live an easy life creating an inheritance for his granddaughter. He gets pissed because Walter ends up f*cking it all up. “We had it good with Fring but you had to mess it all up with your pride” or so forth.
Walter doesn't know that he was at the mercy of Salamanca Twins. I think he had to thank Saul Goodman and Mike a lot of keeping Salamanca away from him
Better Call Saul expands on the Breaking Bad universe so brilliantly. Every back story is covered, all the characters are fleshed out, it’s amazing. Watching Breaking Bad after Better Call Saul gives you a different perspective on things. All of this stuff was going on way before Walt decided to start cooking meth, it’s so interesting to watch him get tangled up in that world when you know the entire back story and how dangerous the people he’s getting involved with are.
Mike noticing the scythe at 2:08 thinking it’s for Walt which it was but it was meant for him as well and also sign that he’s talking to the one that will kill him.
I can't stop think about Mike having spoken about someone "watching your back" recalled how he moved his people from Jimmy and Kim's apartment and let Lalo harmed them. So yeah, sometimes it's better to be under stakeout
0:39 “She snuck off the reservation to get some dirty, damp and deep…” Considering how he called Florida a “swamp”. This is Jimmy throwing shade at Kim here.
Just realised that Mike’s car being parked on the scythe, and him driving away is symbolic for how Walt doesn’t have anyone to protect him from the twins.
The way Bob Odenkirk delivers the "oh boo hoo, I won't cook meth anymore" line and the actions he does with it is comedic gold.
With the pointing too? He’s so childish and that’s what I like about this scene

Yeah but he is terminally ill, while everyone else is perfectly fine when it comes to health and still they risk their lives for money.
@@rodrigocoockiemonster4460 welp let's pray that all disabled, ill and old ppl don't end up becoming murderous meth cooks then
1:13 me when I call the exterminator and they say I have to wait till tomorrow
Mike's "are you kidding me" glare after Walt starts fighting Saul never gets old., 😆
0:37 the funniest line of this entire show 😂
2:16 Walt is like an NPC when you stay a little longer after taking a mission.
You know, Waltuh
The line of the day , " Yeahhh , I enjoy it " .
What it took Walter 5 seasons to say Mike said effortlessly. Mike and Gus really were better classes of criminal than Heisenberg and to an extent better classes of people than Walt.
@@ARB1452 Walter was still learning .
@@ARB1452 What it took Mike and Gus 20 years to build up, Walt did in 6 months. Heisenberg really was a better class of criminal than either of them.
@@TheStraightestWhitest It's a shame he had an ego the size of eiffel tower. His ego was his very downfall
@@rover5058 Half true. He wanted his downfall. He wanted the world to know what he'd done. That's what it was always all about. Not about money, but about proving that he could make it. That he could build a billion dollar industry like Grey Matter, that it was him. So that was ego yes, but he didn't fall because of his ego. He chose that. Because the world couldn't have known what he was capable of without it.
That's why in the very first promotional material it said "Remember the name." It was never about maintaining what he'd built. He just wanted it built to prove he could. That's what I love about this show.
After saving Saul in the desert, I can see why Mike took his time on this occasion.
Mike is way too cheerful now that we’ve seen how he is in Better Call Saul.
I thought the same 😂
At this moment he is winning money for his family 'peacefuly' working under Gus.
Yea noticed that too. He talks a little too fast compared to the jaded version of him in bcs
@@Nimbus3690 I noticed that. Bcs has changed my whole perspective of brba and I just miss Howard, chuck and natcho
@@rsdillbot3646 Howard is the only one out of those guys that deserved better. He deserved to have better company surrounding him for how much he gave back
Love how Mike gives Walt a minute before he intervenes. He knew that remark deserved a takedown at least.
1:14 me when I pay pest control to solve my roach infestation
0:45 The fandom fighting over which series is better.
Damn after watching Better Call Saul it is kind weird to see Mike this ''young''
Considering how many strangers pulled up at Walt’s house it’s a miracle he wasn’t caught earlier
@0:49 Mike was totally saying to himself, “these dumbasses can’t fight for shit”
Luckily Mike didn't watch the Howard vs Jimmy boxing match in Better Call Saul.
@@RenaldyCalixte Actually, he may have seen it, or heard about it, because Gus’ men were watching Kim and Jimmy at the time
@@vendimi9547 Good point.
Walt and Jesse: *need protection, got police breathing down their necks and savage drug cartels on their case*
Also them: *reject literally every single person who can ensure security*
Walt: "Great line of work, by the way. Real upstanding field"
Mike: "Walter, you literally cook meth"
At 0:44, how Walt attacks Saul makes me laugh every time. It’s timed perfectly. There’s like a fraction of a second delay where Saul’s dirty, damp, and deep commentary gets to Walt, and then he just goes Heisenberg on poor Jimmy. 😂
1:34 This is Mike's funniest moment in the series imo
Walt had all the plot armor, and Mike had 0 f**** to give.
No, its put in evidence multiple times that mike only kills people with a reason, if it was someone like Tuco, then I would agree that would be a killing plot armor,happily it wasn't the case.
Mike does have opinions on his work and the people he works with, bit like a true professional Mike doesn't let those opinions and feelings get in the way, he was hired to do something, so he does it, nothing more, nothing else, the employer doesn't give a shit about emotions they care about results
Saul was the best lawyer I ever had
Holy shit are you the real heisenberg?!
Obviously not..
bruh
You are dead.
You're god damn right
I have seen Better Call Saul, saul dealt with Tuco, Nacho, and Lalo and none of them touched him once and here he is getting beaten by a high school chemistry teacher. What an irony!
its dumb as hell
Tuco beat him up a little
And Lalo tied him up
The way Saul insults Walt is almost the same as the way he insults Chuck ☠️
0:54
Walt reacts the same exact way when he sees Jesse and Todd scrambling on the floor while Jesse strangles the life out of him.
Waltuh put your d away
0:41 One of my favorite Breaking Bad moments 🤣
I love how walter is totally immune to the saul chit-chat. Only a few can have that...
Mike's utter weariness and lack of concern is the best.
I love how Mike doesn't even get mad with Walter when he questions the morality of his labor.
Ignoring the fact that Walter doesn't even have the right to say anything (he's just as bad as Mike), Mike elegantly avoids the burn by saying: "Yeah, well. I enjoy it"
And then later in the series (in one of the final scenes), Walter finally admits that all that he did was for himself in front of Skyler. Mike simply understood this much earlier than Walter: "Looking up for excuses when you do something wrong is pointless, because it won't validate you ever. Better just accept it, and do it proudly"
I'd argue Mike actually does do this solely for his family whilst happening to be good at it. We're it not for his daughter in law and granddaughter, I imagine he'd be happy working the toll booth to this day
@@CrumbsLamond Nah, imo Mike's "doing it for his daughter" thing is as much an excuse as Walt's
Mike just went through his journey earlier than Walt. He went through the same denial in BCS and finally came to terms with it, just like Walt does
@@CrumbsLamond I think he referred to the jobs he does for Jimmy when he said he enjoys it. Would make sense as he is getting a break from all the cartel stuff
@@barottengarden2 That's not true tho. He clearly cares more about his granddaughter than Walt ever did his family.
Saul called him exactly what he is.. A crybaby
To think, mike actually tried to look out for his life but in the end.. walter killed him rip mike
Mike didn’t give a shit about Walter, he thought he was a egomaniac and a liability (rightfully). He got paid to bug his house. I still hate that Walter killed him however.
All the shit that Mike survived, revealed in Better Call Saul... and he's offed by this chemistry teacher having a midlife crisis.
Yeah, you forgot the part in between where Mike was seconds away from blowing Walt's brains out in the lab in cold blood. Mike didn't give a crap about Walt. He was looking after Gus' investment.
I think he gave a little shit about him up until he ran over the dealers, then he was just waiting to blow his brains.
@@drpufosoide5422 he wasn’t waiting to “blow his brains” either. Jesus can’t you lot just understand he’s only interested in getting paid to live an easy life creating an inheritance for his granddaughter. He gets pissed because Walter ends up f*cking it all up. “We had it good with Fring but you had to mess it all up with your pride” or so forth.
0:45 the way Saul grunts is absolutely hilarious.
Mike sitting there like someone's two rowdy sons are fighting for the millionth time and doesn't have the energy for it.
I love how Mike is like a 'tired of life' father just breaking up another one of his children's fights
I like how Mike just casually picks up Walter and throws him towards the door like it’s nothing
"Dirty, damp and deep" 😂😂
"You just bought a $300 suit!" is a really underappreciated line 🤣
1:13 When you finally become frustrated with the constant cockroaches in your house and you call the exterminator
Walter doesn't know that he was at the mercy of Salamanca Twins. I think he had to thank Saul Goodman and Mike a lot of keeping Salamanca away from him
Better Call Saul expands on the Breaking Bad universe so brilliantly. Every back story is covered, all the characters are fleshed out, it’s amazing. Watching Breaking Bad after Better Call Saul gives you a different perspective on things. All of this stuff was going on way before Walt decided to start cooking meth, it’s so interesting to watch him get tangled up in that world when you know the entire back story and how dangerous the people he’s getting involved with are.
"You know Walt, sometimes it doesn't hurt to have someone watching your back" hits way harder after season 6 of BCS.
0:56 im honestly impressed by how they found a way to film what looks like mike actually lifting walts entire body weight
Mike noticing the scythe at 2:08 thinking it’s for Walt which it was but it was meant for him as well and also sign that he’s talking to the one that will kill him.
It hurts me on indescribable levels to see Saul get beaten up like that
Why
Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul fans fighting over who the better protagonist is
That's funny 😄 Mike is in both shows and fans like me who love both shows just roll their eyes.
The Salamanca twins legit just drew a scythe with sidewalk chalk in front of Walter's house 😂
0:27 Heisenberg moment
I can't stop think about Mike having spoken about someone "watching your back" recalled how he moved his people from Jimmy and Kim's apartment and let Lalo harmed them. So yeah, sometimes it's better to be under stakeout
0:39 “She snuck off the reservation to get some dirty, damp and deep…”
Considering how he called Florida a “swamp”. This is Jimmy throwing shade at Kim here.
dude that reaper drawing is genius. Foreshadows Mike's death.
Just realised that Mike’s car being parked on the scythe, and him driving away is symbolic for how Walt doesn’t have anyone to protect him from the twins.
I never realised that. Glad I know that now :)
"So yeah. I'll get all of em, Waltuh." such good delivery by johnathan banks on that line
I love how mike is so apathetic like "Geeze these guys can't fight for shit"
The way mike saw them fighting was like a disappointed dad looking at his two sons fighting
That scythe omen at the end was so cryptic I thought it was just some kid’s drawing when I first watched the show
The fact Saul expects to be able to carry on talking after dropping the "dirty, damp and deep" line 😂
I always love how Mike casually delivers burns while Walt loses his mind. 😂
After watching BCS I think that Mike enjoyed this moment, because of Howard and that he ignored what he told him about Walter
