Was there a tracker in both cars? If not, how come they didn't notice the car had changed?

The 'job' car was always going to be used once and then dumped, so no problems here.
The private car mike took pains to be inconspicuous about his switch.

I think that he only got a cap for the private one to replace the newly installed transmitter at night.

The scenes with Mike searching the car, finding the tracker, draining the battery, and baiting his mysterious followers into taking his tracker were all great, and with minimal dialogue and exposition. I wish other shows would take notes.

drat straight, even when I watch some very good TV the writers' impatience is palpable.

I'm really looking forward to seeing how Mike's relationship with Gus develops.

Mike has mentioned that he could not find the true background of Gus, it'd be fun to see him realise that the man is a cypher he cannot crack.

Anyone feels like theorising about Gene fainting?
It seemed to be stress related, but I'm sure there are weird theories out there.

E: here's one to get started: Walt poisoned Saul with ricin.

I know the thread hates Chuck with a passion, but I can't imagine the show without him. He's such a rat bastard and Michael McKean's performance is fantastic.

So long as we can differentiate between character and actor there's no problem.
Now watch some rear end in a top hat on 4chan threaten to kill Michael McKean IRL.

Colonel Whitey posted:

The only issue I can think of with the tracker thing is that Mike spent almost a full day at a junkyard, which I would think the people tracking him might find suspicious when suddenly the tracker goes dead the next day. Maybe they just assume he didn't find it since he doesn't destroy it but that seems a little obtuse for the Gus we know and love (assuming it's him).

It's not hard to picture how this all looks to whoever is tracking Mike:

day 1: Tracker#1- desert to junkyard (Mike has disposed of the job car)
night 1: Tracker 2# - Mike's home to toll both (Just an ordinary night)
.
.
night ?: Tracker 2# - Mike's home ( Battery low, send replacement)

I love how many costumes Saul goes through, Walt only had "Mr.chips" which slipped more and more and "Scarface" which became more real.
Saul however is a chameleon, I hope the writers have some new costumes in waiting.

That's like 60kg in six years
7700 extra calories per kilo = about extra 211 calories every day for the first year double that on the next year triple on the year after that...
Two twinkies are 270 kcal
That's about 3422 extra twinkies he'd have to consume.

E: After adding his BMR into the calculation he'd have to eat about 4-5 extra twinkies a day to get this fat over 6 years

Maybe he ate one of those giant pizzas that Walt threw on the roof every day.

Welp if he had a whole roof 🍕 every day in addition to his required calories, he'd get there in less then a year.
