I just binged the whole thing in like two weeks, I'm still not sure how I should feel about Chuck and Jimmy  I didn't like Chuck towards the end but then I realized he was genuinely mentally ill and oh I don't know. Tragic all in allWhen Something Stupid ended and I was ready to move onto the next episode and it said 'come back next week!' I was like nooooo

I think she realized that Huel is probably the only black person in those cases she mentioned, and the prosecutor is being harsher now purely on racial grounds. She's gonna make a bunch of protest signs and stage a protest at the court house or something because it's a black man with a 3 year old prior for loving pick pocketing getting the book thrown at him.

I noticed that the blouse Kim is wearing while marker-shopping is blue with red flecks- leads me to believe she's planning something that's technically above-board but will piss off the legal professional class she's climbing her way into

Remember the scene where she stopped to take a look at the framed thank-you note from one of her clients? What if she's gonna gin up a bunch of cutesy "thank you Huell" messages and drawings to create the narrative he does charity work or something with kids.

We know they need one more blast and we know Kai is the expert, but since they've been building him up as the troublemaker I'm betting he heroically sacrifices himself to save the others from a cave in or something. I'm American, but was still confused and wondered why Walt didn't have health insurance through the teacher's union. You'd think that'd be one of the main benefits of being a teacher.

My bet is on Kim (successfully) trying to paint Huel as a big retarded child who is incapable of doing any harm. Edit: No not paint him with crayons but make him paint unicorns and poo poo in court room.

You'd think that'd be one of the main benefits of being a teacher. He does. It's explicitly mentioned several times that he has insurance but it's not great (though I think one of the mentions is in a scene in the pilot that got cut in later airings, in the ambulance after he collapses at the car wash), Marie pushes them into to seeing an out of network doctor who's supposedly the best cancer guy in the state or whatever. And also he turns down the job at Grey Matter (that specifically has 'great insurance' listed as one of the benefits). Yes, the concept of 'out of network' doctors is terrible, especially in situations where you have absolutely no control over who you see (unlike Walt's case where they just wanted some other doctor), yes the thing with the insurance company trying to cut Hank's rehab short and Marie having to go out of pocket to get the care he needed to get him to walk again is terrible, though I doubt the US system is unique in having limits on the amount of physical therapy it will provide. The US healthcare system is loving terrible and unjust and lovely and ruins lives and kills people, but Breaking Bad isn't about that, it's about Walt's arrogance and greed and need to feel important and manly and respected. The cancer diagnosis is just the excuse he uses to justify it to himself. hailthefish fucked around with this message at 19:30 on Sep 18, 2018 |

Now this is a possibility. I think they had that whole scene with her comparing prior assaults on cops with the sandwich smash for a reason. The idea she's going to imply something about Huell's mental capacity by using 1000 colored markers is ridiculous and a little bit insulting if I'm being honest. There's been no indication in this show or BB that Huell is in any way disabled, and a few seasons ago he was signed on as a witness in Jimmie VS Chuck, so even in-BCS-universe there's no justification for that line of thinking.

During the episode, I was definitely thinking "She's going to make him look mentally handicapped." Though i like the protest idea. Get some people to protest because he's the only person getting a harsh sentence for that kind of crime. I think outright lying with fake notes from kids would be below Kim.

Yeah Kim isn't going to outright lie or fabricate anything. I don't get how you could watch this show for four years and think that's something she'd do. She'll most likely make waves and focus on the racial element, and it'll probably cost her her job.

What if Jimmy pushes her to lie and she does, gets disbarred (and nothing happens to Jimmy), and that’s where Kim and Jimmy finally end? It’s not going to be a case of “we are drifting apart, let’s break up.” I’ve watched this show for four years and don’t think that’s something they would do.

1 - Jimmy's plan was dumb. 2 - Remember in season 2 when Kim was fine with Jim lying to save Pryce but not with forging evidence? Either she won't do it... or break bad. She clearly saw it as a line in the sand. 3 - Back when Jimmy was suspended they made a point that he was not to associate with any criminal. And here he is, associating himself on record with a con that might be convicted again. Sounds relevant.

Mike is going to arrange for the German boys to go on some nice R & R, somewhere far away where no one from the area will spot them. Somewhere like Aspen, where they will run into the Schweikart crew. Kai will seduce Kim and Mike will have to off em both.

Jimmy will go to Mike to ask for a plan b and we will probably see that plan b. Which maybe leads to Jimmy and Kim becoming enemies over this. (Your brother was right and so on.)

With all the certainty that Kim is gone, gone, gone by Breaking Bad I'd love it if she ended up actually being heavily involved in the Saul business, taking care of all the more legitimate cases while Saul continually got his hands dirty. Not holding out much hope though.

The show is significantly better without cartel plots. Sometimes they’re interesting, like the truck and the shoes, but overall they’ve been on TV before in a way that down-to-earth legal dramas haven’t.

Last Chance posted:i wonder what Nacho does with his downtime? is he just sitting on the couch in his dad's living room, brooding in the dark and silently nursing his wound? Nacho is a massive Raiders fan. He also likes reading comic books. The reason he spends so much time sitting alone in dark rooms staring at the wall is so he can practice his Batman-esque brooding. Mike goes to a boxing gym just across the block from his usual diner and enjoys crossword puzzles and mystery novels. During the rare moments that Gus has spare time and isn't being a philanthropist/drug terminator, I imagine he probably plays strategy games like Civilization 3 or Tropico on a cutting-edge Thinkpad while sitting in the back office of a Pollos restaurant.

Hector checking out that thick white booty was funny, but the way it transitioned into Gus realizing that he was now just sentient enough for his sadistic liking was dark as gently caress. That might be my favorite Gus scene in the whole show, and it got across his level of calculating cruelty way faster and more effectively than his monologue last week.

he probably won't be clicking his heels and back to his giddy old self, but i'd say it wouldn't be too far off to imagine hector being able to speak cohesively enough with enough rehab and recovery. to walk again might be a bit of a stretch, but he could absolutely use something like an electric wheelchair by himself. gently caress, even in BB he was strong enough to lift himself off of his wheelchair to take a big fat poo poo in front of hank and jesse.
