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."

The vet made a ton of money, no enemies and called it quits to continue doing what he loved.
He got the happiest ending, compared to everyone else
he and the vacuum cleaner
How do you know?
@@CyberCheese392 Because they didn't delve into more of his story so he got out.
@@dragerdet That is like claiming at the end of BB that Saul got out
@@CyberCheese392 Yeah but Vince said that he didn't want to milk the BB universe so BCS is the end.
The vet was smart on getting out before things got worse
He didn’t wanna mess with Walter
@@simplifier_I specifically remember when he said "word on the street is...Walter White, yes, the high school CHEMISTRY teacher, is going to become a lethal drug lord."
waltuh
@@thewiseowl8804ahahah
With his past work/experiences, it might be a matter of time before uses his “skills” inadvertently or as a reflex, then gets discovered by some not too savory people…
The Vet is the smartest guy there, he knows when to pull out of the game since he already has a good legit job.
I think it was more about “not wanting to be in the game full time”, because he was just a middle man. Could probably assume he didn’t like the shift of going from “I know a guy who knows a guy” to “treating human patients”.
Sauls secretary made out alright too i feel like 😂😂
Same with vacuum cleaner man and the black market gun seller.
@@ChicagoScorpionI’d love a spinoff on all of them
What I love most about this scene is that it shows you how Jimmy/Kim became aware of the book, and ultimately Ed The Disappearer, without an explicit scene showing how they got possession of the book. The creators left that up to the viewers' imagination. Well done.
Bravo Vince
0:32 never realised this ep was directed by giancarlo esposito
nice
Eravo Bsposito!
This is acceptable to you?
@HunterShows You can go home now Vince.
Love the vet character!!
The actor did it very good
@@idanlewenhoff2295joe derosa
It's Joe DeRosa and he's a absolute goofball lmao, watch his taste buds podcast
@@johnserda7446 I like the actor but he could use some extra scapulae.
@@chandraray7798 🤣🤣🤣
I like to imagine that he actually never started the "Black Book" and that object has it's own weird story tied to it.
Yea it makes it better to imagine that the notebook has been passed/bought or inherited throughout the years. I guess Saul was the final carrier, no way he gave the notebook to Francesca.
@@TheThirdWorldCitizenIf I recall, the black book appears in the opening scene of this same season, when some people are getting empty Saul Goodman's house, so we can assume it is now property of the police
Right, I believe the Black Book's final appearance was S6E1 at 3:44. But in that very moment, you see someone flip through a few pages before throwing it away. Thankfully for all those criminals, I guess they didn't think it was worth trying to translate lol
Made his money but had enough perspective to give it up and focus on what really matters to him. What a legend.
Ya, Walter couldn't get out. Walter tried to get out. He liked the rush, the power too much to stay out.
I love that the vet is portrayed as both good at his job, and caring towards the animals. A bit like that gun guy who Mike / Walt interact with, and the guy who lifts the Hummel in BCS S1 - the only honest people in this show are those who treat their jobs as professions.
Fun fact the guy who lifts the Hummel was actually supposed to be Kuby but Bill Burr had a scheduling conflict so he couldn't do it they tried to write him in again as the guy who breaks into Kevin's house in S5 but he had a personal emergency.
@@duncanp9076 that sucks. both scenarios would have been a great way to introduce Kuby into the show.
I always loved how they never show Jimmy decrypting the client list. It ultimately doesn't matter, it was more interesting to see why he goes full blown criminal than how.
I mean probs Caldera wrote the key for him when selling
He was what Walter White COULD have been had he simply knew when to bow out safely.
You’re right. Walt had plenty of chances.
I don’t think Walt would’ve slowed down or called it quits
Dr. Caldera, got out alive. Subliminally he may have given Jimmy the advice about access in life.......the goldfish drowning in their own food. AKA avoid over consumption and greed.
As it was that lone goldfish at the apartment was highlighted many times afterward in critical scenes. Lalo tapping on the glass highlighted the entry into criminal finality.
The vet is what could be defined as "the nexus of the underground"
Remember when we all got scared when Kim read that card. 😅
Not really. It was mostly annoying and underwhelming because it meant that Saul literally bought his way into getting all the future contacts he needed and it was clear that they were going to off-screen most of his time as Saul Goodman
@@zekeiwa5837 Buddy that "off screen" time was Breaking Bad.😅
@@Vlaffffy i don't recall saul building his connections during breaking bad
3:56 “No, Jimmy. He snuck in somehow and these are not the pictures I saw.” 👀
Mr Hamlin, are you alright?
Your eyes...
It took me a while but I'm guessing Jimmy brought the Vet's book after he fully embraced the Saul Goodman persona
We see the book in that flashforward at the start of the last season when nthe movers are clearing out Saul's house so he probably ended up buying it from him.
He had to buy something with sandpiper settlement.
May i ask why and how it took you a while to realize that
@@d8dknee8rjdje8 yea
Now we know how Saul got his contacts
How did I skip this scene and Ive watched the whole series twice.
Almost like you should just watch the show and not skip scenes.
@@redefinitiveI do I just don't remember this part.
"You're a vet ?"
-Yes
"Thanks for your service"
Trippin' Jimmy.
Finally a show that gets the eyes right.
Fernando at the beginning is so cute 😍
The Vet is the only guy that got away scott free.
Most of the criminals who operate as “protagonists” usually have a line of decency that keeps them from being total monsters.
Walt - Family
Gus - his workers / revenge
Mike - family / principles
The Vet - caring for animals
Kim - helping her clients
Chuck - the law
Salamancas - family
Nacho - his father
Jesse - no hurting children
…but it’s when that “line” gets cut; that the criminal is all they become.
Strangely, after Jimmy’s falling out with his brother, and no Kim in his corner…he becomes the apex sleazy lawyer.
Well said Mr. Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters. Lol
Justifying shady or questionable things has actually been practiced since the dawn of time as well.
Church - In the name of god
President - In the name of national security
German soldiers during WW2 - We were just following orders
People have a tendency to do these mental gymnastics, in order to disassociate themselves from the actual evild deeds & try to convince themselves that they had a reason, just not to deal with the guilty or remorse, they would feel otherwise.
The human psyche is truly fascinating & simultaneously frightening.
True. They are all pretenders, each one of them, right down to the end.
Most characters are very complex and they are not entirely good or bad but oh boy, the Salamancas, Jack's gang and probably Gus are just pure evil.
by the end of the show Walt was also evil
I wish Vince Gilligan and company would have made one more series interweaving the BB and BCS universe.
I get it, the readiness of working on something different not related to what you’ve been doing..but as a fan, I wish they would have created another show with BB & BCS.
His team of writers just made some of the best shows ever on TV
Vet is such a interesting character
Hmmm, Best Quality Vacuum...
The book is like an OP item at the end of a questline
"Who's a good boi ?" 🥰
The black book imo is probably the only way you could possibly squeeze another crime drama out of this world.
Other than that, new and original work is the best bet.
I mean it's not THAT interesting. Sure, there are a lot of criminals in there, but this guy is only the middleman with minimum risk.
@@Mediados myeh you’re prolly right.
That said, Walt was just a chem teacher once too. Those criminals can evolve into something larger, no?
That book holds pages to coded contacts all over the criminal underworld. Including the likes of both Todd’s exterminators, which by extension also means that extremist hitmen gang family of his too.
On top of all that you’ve got servicing for the Hoover MaxExtract PressurePro model 6.
Hell, even Mike was one of the vets contacts for a time. Who knows who else has passed through his services or book despite his discrepancy for risk.
@@JayTraversJTI'd actually be interested in the Vacuum Guy. He seems like a decent person despite giving criminals a way out.
@@Mediados Sadly, the actor who played the Vacuum Guy, Robert Forster, died in 2019 - funnily enough, he was actually a door to door vacuum cleaner salesman before becoming an actor.
I think the point is after Kim leaves Jimmy buys the black book and start his business as Saul in BB. After all, Jimmy is the one who has the vacuum man contact in BB.
Hover pro max origin
2:08 there's a pug sighting!!!!
I actually kinda hate the idea that he basically just got handed his entire network of contacts from BB. I prefer the idea of him building it himself over time as a dirty lawyer.
Why does this vet remind me so much of Viktor from Cyberpunk 2077
Becaws aye faurt ken brayke aye windoe
Death Note
what did they see at the end?
I can't find when Mike goes to Vet. Damn, I had it Liked
what are all the courts they keep throwing out because I would win?
Saul’s overreacting when the Vet gave him an armpit thermometer is hillarious😂
The "Vet's" Black Book i Axe and Grind
they keep saying something like I sound like my dad and I need to be killed
I need a series just on what the F is going on with this vet
TASTE BUDS!!!!!
DeRosa needs to act more for real.
Fernando
This weas the exact moment that Jimmy became Saul.
Can somebody remind me what was this about? What kind of stuff/stimulant did vet give Jimmy and what for? I just remember it was scheming something, but completely forgot the whole thing..?
It was the stuff they put on the fabricated photos of that meditator in Sandpiper case. The one with broken arm and fancy moustache. Anyway, Howard gets the photos from the spurious detective, remarks the photos are wet, the stimulant enters his body through the skin and makes him look like he's high
Looks how he dont have glows to touch the puppy but when he is gonna touch jimmy he put hus glows. Almost ñike the really animals are they
I get my healthcare from my friendly Vet!😎😂😂✌
I drew the line when my veterinarian wanted to spay me.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😎✌
Joey D?!?!
No scams they were running this time?
They were working on it! This was set up, as they were trying out the drug that they would later use on Howard.
*Directed by Giancarlo Esposito*
“Cut! was this take acceptable?”
“no im sure we can do a better job”
** 100 takes later
“it is acceptable”
Who even is this vet, how does he have the "dissappearer card"?
Not everything has to have a prequel film and 4 origin episodes. Characters can move the plot forward without much reasoning.
The vet was a great way to connect random people with random criminal professionals
He heard about him from someone else
Yeah this vet was a total rando, only on screen for this scene and the black book was a huge plot device. This is cheap writing.
@@CyberCheese392 only this scene, have you like, actually watched this show lmao, he appears as soon as season 1, he is the guy who gets mike in contact with pryce, and he appears again and again and again across every season
Considering the guy is a vet, those people probably had some sick pets at some point in time and they went to see him.
So Jimmy become drugjimmy?
I didn't really get the point of this scene. As in, it doesn't seem to "resolve" into anything.
It's how Jimmy gets the drug he uses on Howard, its also how Jimmy becomes the guy who knows a guy.
Yeah, what he said. The drugs used to lace the photos for Howard and how Saul obtains the little black book that he uses for his shady dealings. It contains the vaccines guy and “guy who goes to jail for money” in breaking bad…and others.
@@diccchocolate416 thanks!
hi
Hello there hope you have an awesome day
The vet is more a plot device than a character, which is a shame because the vet is a more interesting character than most on the show.
This scene is almost filler.
Any good scene either has to advance plot or build character, and this one does both. Like Kim says, the vet knows what he wants and chooses contentment in his life over profit. It shows that, unlike Jimmy and Kim, he knows what really matters in life, and that he knows when to get out and quit while you're ahead. As for plot, we're now wondering what Jimmy took to make his pupils look like that and why they need it, how it fits into their little scheme against Howard. There's nothing filler about this scene at all.
@@redefinitive Sounds like you have no problem with "its magic" explanations
@@CyberCheese392 Sounds to me like they have a good grasp on how storytelling works.
Shut-up
@@CyberCheese392it’s not magic with how this is presented which you clearly didn’t get since you didn’t pay attention at all or know how storytelling works so nice try
