You have no reading comprehension skills. I've said all along Jimmy is a good person. I've said we're likely to find out Saul is still a good person. Why? Because they're the same guy. Try understanding what I write, instead of continuing to sputter your poorly written, moronic retorts.

So giving up an interview for a partner-track position at a big law firm means he's NOT going to be Saul? Even though we already know he becomes Saul?

I totally agree. For better or worse, Saul Goodman is who Jimmy McGill wants to be. I think this finale made that clear.

I think the death of Marco was more about showing Jimmy that the only way to go out happy is to live your life as YOU want to. Poor Marco always needed Jimmy around for that, but Jimmy has the ability to do it on his own. Marco's ring was a reminder that to go out on top, he had to stop living his life by the

That would absolutely destroy the show's credibility if they did that. The whole finale was about explaining why Jimmy gave up on going legit, and I think it did so rather brilliantly.

I agree, and I think that will be a major theme for next season.

I can't read or hear that name without hearing Brian Atene intone "Kyoo-brick."

This is an important point. The writers have gone to great lengths to give these characters a lot of depth, and yet people seem to want to put them into simple boxes, where Jimmy = good, Chuck = bad. Life doesn't work that way; nor should art that is trying to approximate it.

Watching Marco die happy simply from getting to go out on his own terms is, I think, the catalyst behind Jimmy's 180 out of the parking lot, and out of the meeting with Davis & Mayne. I think Jimmy saw the years and years of legal drudge work piling up in front of him, work he had absolutely no desire for, and

No, I think it's pretty clear from what's on screen where Jimmy's mind is, what he learned about himself in Cicero, and how that is going to color his decisionmaking going forward. All I've done is try to explain my reasoning; I don't really know why that's obnoxious. Because you want to believe that Jimmy is a

Fair enough. Perhaps it isn't hard work that Jimmy can't tolerate any more, it's "legitimate" work. You have to admit, though, that skimming 17% for hooking people up with money launderers is pretty easy money.

He already screwed over Kim by ditching the meeting that she and Hamlin worked to set up for him. How does it make them look, that they stuck their necks out and recommended him, and then he ditches?

You don't go back and revisit closed chapters of your life unless they aren't really closed.

I never said Jimmy isn't capable of hard work. I merely said he prefers not to have to work hard, or at least, work legitimately for money. It's not a hard distinction to see.

I never once said that Chuck isn't an awful human being. That doesn't mean he was wrong about Jimmy. I don't see what is so hard to understand about that.

If that was all he was after, he could have hung out with Kim. She obviously has a lot of respect for Jimmy, both as a person and as a lawyer.

This is such a sophomoric analysis. Life is short. No shit??

Jimmy became a lawyer to win Chuck's respect. That's what made the end of Pimento so devastating. Jimmy spent the better part of a decade trying to earn Chuck's respect, only to learn that he never would.

You totally missed the point of why Chuck kept Jimmy out of HHM. If all he was worried about was Jimmy screwing over clients and being unethical, HHM would have been the best place for him. Associates don't have the power to screw clients, and Chuck could gage if Jimmy was up to the task of being a lawyer.

Chuck would be 1000x more infuriated by going to a meeting with Davis and Main partners and having Jimmy sitting at the table, than he ever would be by Saul Goodman. Chuck's absolute worst fear is that Jimmy could actually make something of himself as a lawyer.
