I buy the no supplies aspect a bit- look at how cavalier he was with the water, not to mention the meet itself. But 30 miles of bumpy dirt road in that thing! I was positive that car was going to break down before he got to the cash.

You’re right: The two are simultaneous. However, this is a show that doesn’t really do incidental information. If it’s in there, it’s integral somehow.

That made me crazy. Either Mike or Saul should have been smart enough to plan it so the could get the would-be thief’s car. If Saul dropped the money bags once he was “spotted” and ran off the road, the driver would have absolutely stopped the car to grab the loot. Then Mike could have picked him off fairly easily,…

After five seasons of Kim owning about 1/3 of the show, can we stop fantasizing that she is simply a naive, agency-free fridge corpse, there to make Jimmy so sad that he hardly changes at all between now and BB?

AMC posted some great behind-the-scenes videos on their Youtube channel. The second one in particular is awesome.

In case anyone’s wondering, $7M in 100 dollar bills weighs between 150 and 175 pounds.

Jimmy's still somewhat naive at this point. He honestly didn't think there would be a problem. 

My only gripe with is this review is that Jimmy knew he was using himself as bait when he walked into the road. He specifically told Mike to “get that thing ready.” before his space cape walk.

This episode is the most terrified I’ve been watching a show from the Breaking Bad universe since Ozymandias. Especially the second half, once it became clear that Kim was going to know he was missing.

The song was apparently “I Got The...” by Labi Siffre. I only recognize it from being sampled in “My Name Is” by Eminem.

This is a really good review.

Yeah, its a weird one for me. At the point when Jimmy began dragging the bags and it went too commercial, I was feeling tense from the episode but then I reminded myself that they survive because Breaking Bad happens later. Yet, to the show’s credit, I sucked into the moment and wanted to see how they’d survive and…

I think it might have something to do with the Bond for Lalo as right after that she approached Jimmy about his pulling off getting the Bond option for Lalo. It seems like that is how she learnt that he did it.

They’re also about 4 hours south of where the pants were.

Maybe it’s the Jalop in me but I found the scene where Mike knew exactly where the ambush was at and the fact that he decided to take the Suzuki esteem as the getaway car with barely a cursory inspection and not a new Jeep even if he couldn’t fix all the flats and no checking for supplies in any vehicles to be a bit…

Tonight was the final episode of Better Call Saul as Saul & Mike died stranded in the desert. It turns out it’s not a prequel to Breaking Bad! The B&W “flashforwards” were merely the hallucinations of a dying lawyer.

Saul mentions both Lalo and Nacho in his first scene in BrBa, so it's probably a pretty safe bet that they both live to the end of this series (although I suppose they could die but just without Saul's knowledge).

Really pushing Mike’s magical hypercompetence to the farthest edges of plausibility for this one. I’m a team player and I’m always on board for suspension of disbelief, but there is a fine line between serving your story and resorting to a cheap, lazy out.

The kicker: after all of Jimmy’s whining, and posturing, and bag-dragging bullshit, it’s Mike who fucks up the Hail Mary. And he knows it. Those few seconds of Banks sobbing after that second shot flipped the truck are golden.

I’m usually not one for the blatant foreshadow, but when Jimmy poured the water on his boot (ok, a little part of me was a bit resigned to the fact that FOR SURE this was gonna go bad) I actually mumbled out loud, “Oooh, this is gonna be good.” I was strangely cool with the fact there would be no more shuckin’ and…
