That’s fucking depressing. Your mind sucks

This episode showed exactly why Gus felt the need to cut himself off from any personal happiness, to prevent another tragedy like Max’s murder from happening again.

This show is so incredible at making inevitable plot points come in the most unpredictable fashion. Everyone was asking the obvious in the first five seasons of this show, “When is Kim going to leave Jimmy?”

I agree. I would also love an explanation as to where all the "Salamanca women" are. So far we have only seen Tuco's abuelita (grandmother). But my husband and I wonder where all the women who birthed these Salamancas are. That would be a good back story. I get the impression that Hector does not have much respect for…

According to the BCS podcast, that is the same Statue of Liberty inflatable that the Kettlemans used for their tax office. 

At first I thought it was brutally impulsive and did not fit with Kim at all. But she has made decisions like that over and over - leaving HHM, working against Mesa Verde’s interests, dumping MV and a partner track at her new firm. They all happened at a snap of a finger and had enormous implications. Just like…

one thing that really hit me this episode was how long i’ve been watching these characters and how much the world has changed.

i have read somewhere he’s not even a real person and is a character on a tv show. possibly even two tv shows.

“I love you too...but so what?”

The final B&W shot of the department store has me thinking that there will be some dénouement with Gene and future Kim. If I had to take a maudlin, sentimental guess, the most bittersweet wrap-up would be that now re-married Kim roles up with 1-2 5-7 yr. old kids for a Cinnabon and Jimmy finally realizes what he lost.

He wanted Walt to believe he had kids, so he staged his house to look like small children lived there, and he mentioned “I never cook this... kids won’t eat it.” It was a ruse to convince Walt that everything they do is for purposes of providing for their families. The irony being, Gus did not have a family, all he…

frankly he’s just too old to still be playing the character. they do their best with lighting and makeup, but the wheels are falling off a bit this season.

Boy are you wrong about lots of things in one comment

Regarding the opening montage and song choice.

As soon as I heard it, I instantly thought of the montage from Breaking Bad Season 5 episode 3 where Walt and Jesse were cooking meth in the “fumigated” house to The Peddlers’ “On a Clear Day”. The setups were similar (a montage with a song playing over). The songs possses…

Not surprised by the jump forward given I predicted it from the trailer for this final half of the season but I honestly can’t believe that amongst all the outcomes I never once thought they may go for something as simple as Kim just leaving.

I believe it was. I read in other articles the scene they were filming when he had his heart attack was right after Lalo shot Howard and Lalo was talking to Kim and Jimmy with Howard laying on the floor. The article mentioned how it took two months to finish that scene and Bob Odenkirk doesn’t remember any of it.

Anyone else think Bob Odenkirk looked particularly haggard during the HMM wake?  I wonder if he was just coming back from his heart attack.

This shot of Mike from within the barrel fire, it was like he was burning in Hell. I really like that we’re getting a breather from all the carnage, with Mike finally experiencing the toll from his and Gus’ decisions. While Nacho’s father is correct in morals, he still has a misplaced sense of justice, thinking the…

I think there was one single scene that perfectly sums up the essence of Saul Goodman.
