What's fascinating is how their actions show how Chuck sees Jimmy - assuming he would sneak in under cover of darkness to steal the tape like a conniving thief, instead of coming over to confront him in person in an outburst because he's genuinely hurt
Also how Jimmy will do illegal things for moral reasons (like signing the Sandpiper residents), but Chuck will do very immoral things (Creating an elaborate con that involves manipulating Howard and Ernie and his brother, who he knew would admit everything because he loves Chuck enough) that is all within the bounds of legality.
The reveals in this show are absolutely legendary. They've been building up to this episode for almost 2 seasons. It all ties back to Varga. Amazing writing!!!
One of my favorite lines is when Jimmy asks Francesca about the wall mural and she says, "I think you're a little crooked" and Jimmy says "Yeah…a little crooked."
I still remember the first time i watched this episode and i was in shock when i saw the pollos hermonos sign. Like, i knew gus was coming but it was still insane for me haha
Airing live was unfortunate because AMC advertised the hell out of Gus being back before the season started to get viewers so it didn't get to be a surprise for anyone
I have watched dozens of reactions to 'Better Call Saul' and you two are the first I have so far seen who managed to call it at least one episode in advance -- that Mike was trailing Gus's men. 👍
I will say, when i watched this show while airing, i didnt think it was obvious that gus would feature. the timelines were unclear, and the show was about saul. it could have ended before mike ever met gus. when this was revealed naturally it was so awesome
I knew you 2 would love this show based on how y'all analyzed BB. So so many chess pieces moving around during this show. Chuck just put Jimmy's King in check.😂
I was surprised last episode when Kailyn noticed that Chuck seemed "pleased with himself" after his conversation with Ernie, but didn't seem to realize _why_ .
Yeah it's funny how people don't recognize her when she's "younger", is wearing formal work clothes, and still has some flicker of life behind her eyes 😆
Love the little details in this episode, like at 13:43 how Gus recovers the red basket from the trash! Jimmy throwing it away bothered me too when watching the first time! Another fun detail at 24:55, as Chuck is saying that Jimmy will probably sneak in at night, you can hear Jimmy's car screeching in the background.
It's sad that you don't have more views, but don't ever think it's because you're not good or sth, because you are very good and entertaining and you also pay attention to important details. I'm so glad you started watching BCS after BB greetings from Estonia!
Mike's situation reminds me of Breaking Bad episode 3x02 where Gus stops the twins from killing Walt and they don't even question how he found that out.
3.19 for a meal, man the good ol days, and Im Canadian, so that's like 5 bucks. Anyway, nice seeing Gus again. Gosh the look on your faces at the end, especially Kailyn's face, great reaction, so chrome
