Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Jimmy (Bob Odenkirk) and the camera crew are trying to leave for a commercial shoot, his car won't start. While Jimmy tries, the mic-guy keeps saying "you're gonna flood it." - this is very similar to the scene in Breaking Bad (2008) when Walt (Bryan Cranston) attempts to start the RV and Jesse (Aaron Paul) keeps saying the same thing.
- GoofsWhen Jimmy is sat outside the guitar shop, we see in the background a sign for telecommunications company Lycamobile. This segment of Better Call Saul is set around 2002/2003. However, Lycamobile was not founded until 2006.

This isn't an action type tense film making. Like Hitch's work, the tension is in the intensity of the characters and writing, which means that it's very, very good.
Jimmy - a nice guy with a morals code - continues to get burned by the very system he has spent years trying to fit into. The more he cooperates, the more it burns him. So slick Jimmy, I would think, must be wondering WHAT THE HELL he saw so much in this corrupt system that Fs you if you play by THEIR rules. Proof to us and Jimmy, the system sucks.
I can now see how in the future, he can and will, become Saul. The system will make him into a more intelligent Chicago slick Jimmy.
Mike the Fixer gets deeper into the mess, with each and every show, while showing that in his core, like Jimmy, he's a good guy with a moral code.
Best television going. Given the outright usual and predictable crap out there. Bring your mind and soul to BETTER CALL SAUL, because it takes both to really appreciate what this show has to offer. Anything less is like all that junk you see on the networks.
