[@TheGrimHHH]

The moment when Jimmy breaks down inside the car is when he realizes that people like him or the girl who got denied by HHM will never be accepted in this world. From his perspective, this society will never give them a second chance, they'll always be labeled as "Slippin' Jimmy" or "the shoplifter". He tried his best to avoid it and got stepped on all the way through, so from now on he'll embrace Slippin' Jimmy, but with a slight change in the name (s'all good, man).

[@goneyon]

The real tragic part is that it's not even really true in his case. He was accepted at Davis&Main, and he was doing fine at his own place - Wexler&McGill. But he couldn't let go of how Chuck's judgmental nature made him feel, and he couldn't adapt to what was expected of him.

[@Number0neSon]

[@reneemclane1845]

This is so true on the show as well as the "real" world on so many levels. It makes me want to cry as well. As far as Chuck is concerned no matter how good of a lawyer Jimmy is, and how decent a person Jimmy becomes he will never good enough to breath the same Perfect air that Chuck sucks in every moment. Chuck loves Jimmy as long as he does not forget his place. Jimmy is trying to communicate the painful fact that Life is never fair.... no matter how hard you try. We could write a book about the intricacies of their relationship.

Mike never wanted to kill him and tried hard the entire time to try and keep him alive but Gus had no plans on letting him live. Sadly mike had to do it.

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

I think Mike was not obvious enough when he warned Werner not to slip up again. He should have been crystal clear. Something like: "Mr. Fring is dealing in business where business trumps everything. And if he for one second believes that someone is a security risk for his clandestine operation here, he will solve that risk. Permanently and irreversibly."

You gotta use common sense to just simply take a look around at like mike said the precautions that are being taken aswell as the money. What sort of man would and could do such a thing. Mike laid it out as clear as he could without giving anything anyone could use against them. Again Gustavo is absurdly careful with his business and unless you need to know the details to do the work, you won’t know them. Werner was just a worker and had know reason to understand why the actually were doing what they were doing, just that it needed to be done.

[@CaptainDansWanderings]

From Kim's perspective, I think when Jimmy gleefully admitted to her that he'd tricked those suckers in the hearing room, she reacted like it was a slap in the face. From where she sat, Jimmy was sincere with the things he said about Chuck. At that moment, I'd say she was happy with his "heartfelt" testimony and felt like he'd perhaps turned a corner in his life. But then she found out it was all a ruse. It was one thing for Jimmy to trick all those people in attendance who didn't know him, but she knew him better than anyone, and he tricked her too. That was an eye-opener. I wonder if we're going to get a traditional breakup, or will something tragic happen to Kim. I hope it's the former.

[@goneyon]

Kim was the sucker this time. And will continue to be one, if she stays. That's why it hurts so much.

[@DackupDoo]

Captain Dan But Jimmy has already told Kim that he didn’t miss Chuck.

[@nangke]

The trick to a good performance is to use as much truth as you can. The reason why Kim will stay with Jimmy is that she still believes all the sad is true and him being arrogant afterward is him trying to not feel hurt over Chuck's death, which still affects him, obviously.

[@mrreyes5004]

Not sure why Kim was surprised by that reveal, though. Jimmy LITERALLY SAID OUT LOUD that he doesn't think about Chuck and that he doesn't miss Chuck. Those were Jimmy's own words in the previous episode. Did she think he was lying or something in that scene? No, clearly she didn't know him the best if she didn't remember that basic confession from him in the episode before this one. Kim was hoping for something that wasn't going to happen.

[@MetalGearChris1]

Jimmy at long last cries because after seen some young persona like him being judged by all cuz of past sins, and after telling her those kind of inspirational words, he's still down, he couldn't rise above those who judged him. He still has the same car from the begining. He is not a winner. That breaks him forever. But in the speech he stops reading Chuck's letter cuz it would have been Chuck saving him. He use his own words. He saved himself. He became a winner by his own hands! That is why when he became SG he is in power! He is the man. And he will not look back, never. And that's why he, in his Gene persona, still remember his SG life, when he was the man! It's all Good, man!!!!!!!! PS: note how Saul appears by saying "sweetheart" to the lady at the end, requesting his name change. XD

[@mangalvnam2010]

The winner takes it all, but that often includes the fallout of success as well, as future Gene shall never fail to know...

[@MetalGearChris1]

I guess in s5 we will see the more egothistical SG tearing apart the relationship with Kim only to succeed. Whatever happens to Kim it seems Gene doesn't care about his past with her.

[@patientzeropoint5271]

The scene with Werner and Mike was so insanely good. Maybe my favourite in the show so far. That slight tremble in Mike's voice when he tells Werner to call his his wife. Mike is Angy, sad, disappointed, conflicted but also very aware of the fact that there's only one way this can end. Dude is a bad guy with a kind soul. How Johnathan Banks did not get an Emmy for this season is beyond me.

[@dakingataleedo]

Werner deserved it...not on a human level, but as a man dealing with dangerous people he acted like he could just do as he pleased. It was HEAVILY implied that Gus and his men were playing absolutely no games. He almost got his wife killed too. Mike kind of enabled the whole shit too by being too decent....he should have slapped Werner around for drawing that diagram, to save him from himself

@@dakingataleedo I think that's exactly why the McGill brothers' falling out was so hard to watch. When Jimmy and Chuck briefly worked together on Sandpiper, they looked like an absolute badass duo of lawyer brothers... but then Chuck reveals that he doesn't think Jimmy deserves to be a lawyer and that Jimmy never mattered much to him. And then Jimmy spites Chuck by continuing to be a crooked lawyer and exploiting Chuck's reputation to become a lawyer again. There is no love anymore, just bitterness and apathy. *"Things are fine the way they are.* Hey, I don't wanna hurt your feelings, but the truth is *you **_never mattered_** all that much to me."* *"I don't think about Chuck,* okay? *I don't miss Chuck.* Chuck was alive and *now he's dead and **_that's that._** Finito.* Life goes on." Those are the words from the McGill brothers about how they really feel about each other. It's not because they were shady lawyers, it's because they could never meet each other's expectations and understand one another. Not even the greatest piles of money in the world or the most solid legal documents could EVER change that.

[@redblobdude]

No! The primary emotion inhabiting Kim at the end is neither disappointment nor intolerance, it’s sadness. She has kept up with Jimmy’s ability to act and perform until now, even demonstrating her own abilities at times, and she does her best to not let her emotions affect her judgement. In that moment, she felt betrayed, she was the sucker who was crying, who, just for a moment, thought that Jimmy was letting out what she thought he needed to let out for so long now, only to realize it was too good to be true and that she doesn’t know him anymore. She still loves him, as tragic as that is, she won’t be able to dispose of her feelings for him just like that, but now she sees him the way his brother saw him, as a lost cause, and that realization absolutely destroys her. She has stuck with him for so long trying to undo the trust issues that Chuck instilled into him but she knows now that he has accepted the label his brother put on him out of spite. She’s not going to leave him for this, I guarantee, but it’s 100% self destructive for her to stay with him. But that’s not her fault, you shouldn’t lose respect for her for that because that’s just how much she cares for him. And she knows that without her, Jimmy would absolutely go of the deep end so Kim would never do that to him. This is why she’s such a likable character, because she’s the kind of partner we all want but don’t deserve.

[@mysticsaxophone4181]

Jimmy's courtroom speech, I believed it for like half of the way and instantly felt sick in my stomach when I realized it was a ruse. Amazing writing and fantastic acting chops from Odenkirk.

[@mrreyes5004]

Honestly, I could have MAYBE believed it if I didn't already remember that Jimmy said in the previous episode: "I *don't think about Chuck,* okay? I *don't miss Chuck.* Chuck was alive and *now he's dead and **_that's that._* Finito. Life goes on. So sue me." Jimmy already made his feelings (or lack thereof) clear. I'm surprised that Kim apparently didn't remember that information herself here, considering he blurted it out to her in a 1-on-1 argument.

[@Wayfsmitt]

The scene where Werner was being told the gravity of the situation he put himself into was actually mirroring the moment Gus wanted Mike to kill Walt. The only difference was that Werner was a humble man who did a stupid thing, rather than being an egomaniac amd only protecting himself, he called his wife telling her to leave but accepting his fate that he naively put himself in. Walt called Jesse only to have a good guy like Gale killed in order to save his own ass lol. Btw, his name also comes from Werner Heisenberg the guy Walt also named himself after.

[@barbocovers]

That episode is SO great! That first scene really sums up everything Jimmy/Chuck related. Chuck has always been jealous of how people like Jimmy because he's funny and all, even if Jimmy isn’t the most competent. Even if Jimmy is butchering the song people are having a great time but Chuck can’t help but try to 1up him, and show how technicalky superior he is. That court scene is so ironic because Jimmy couldn’t have been more insincere, but now that he's patting his older brothers back, he's perceived as honest/real. They were really smart to trick us into thinking that first shot was his current appeal because, both times, the law wouldn’t consider him worthy without his brothers approval. Also, that scholarship thing was great because it contextualises how the law perceives outsiders/people with a non perfect past(like Jimmy), which is reflected in all the shit he's going through. I think to me, this might be the best BCS episode yet!

[@amandatidey5751]

I am sure someone has already brought this up but Bob Odenkirk said he never knew how to play the character of Jimmy and then this season he just got it and was totally comfortable. I wonder if it's because he started out playing Saul and the closer he gets to Saul as a character it is much easier for Bob to understand. And of course because he plays 3 different "types" of characters as 1 man. His acting is phenomenal!

[@briangonigal3974]

In an odd way, I think this seemed to work for the character because Jimmy MgGill never really seemed to be able to decide who he wanted to be. At least Saul Goodman knows who he is.

Maybe she's talking about his meddling in mex Cartel's shit?, for probably soon Mike, Nacho and Gus will pull him down to that dangerous underworld somehow... That will be how he is introduced to yet another Salamanca psychopath, Lalo... He's already forgotten Tuco, it seems...

[@SuzakuX]

I assume it has to be his dealings with the cartel. They need to get to whatever went down between him, Nacho, and Lalo at some point and there's only two seasons left.

Mike and Werner break my fucking heart this episode

[@bchen0709]

“Jimmy, whatever happens in there; I’m with you.” Kim meant law license or no law license, she’s with him. All Jimmy hears is, “Whatever shit you pull, any game you play, I’ll back you.” Jimmy is so obsessed with “winning” and getting one over on the “suckers” he can’t even see that he made Kim feel like one. What a heel turn.

[@oggyreidmore]

Jimmy was doing "The winner takes it all" by ABBA for karaoke, but later at 12:50 when they are singing "thinking I belonged there, playing by the rules" those are lyrics to the song, but they aren't together like that in the actual song. If you notice in bed Chuck is singing and Jimmy is drunkenly following slightly behind him singing as well. Chuck is,either consciously or subconsciously, basically having Jimmy say "thinking I belong there, playing by the rules" saying he doesn't really belong as a lawyer. By the way, the original ABBA song is about someone who planned out a good life with someone, comes to realize that future isn't going to happen because they don't really conform to the rules, their relationship is over, and now fate will decide the winner and loser, judges will decide the outcome, and winner takes it all, and the loser will fall. DAMN this show is full of symbolism!

[@gregdubya1993]

Lalo was humming the karaoke song, "The Winner Takes it All"

[@Palendrome]

Mike did to Werner what those cops did to his son. This is why Mike hates himself so much during Breaking Bad. "Werner" is setup for Mike's judgement, which comes in the form of "Heisenberg"

[@thunder9394]

But u can't give Werner soo many chances , especially when ur trying to build a methlab underground

[@Palendrome]

@@thunder9394 that's true, but it doesn't have anything to do with what I said. Mike still hates himself for it.

[@chrismorgan7234]

Werner Heisenberg, a German physicist known primarily for the "Heisenberg uncertainty principle", the uncertainty principle implies that it is in general not possible to predict the value of a quantity with arbitrary certainty, even if all initial conditions are specified(that last part from Wikipedia lol). Werner built the lab(started it, anyway). Heisenberg burned it down. With both Werner and Heisenberg, it wasn't possible to predict what they would do, even if the conditions around them are specified. Also, the "Wiedersehen" in yellow on the rock in the lab, just like the "Heisenberg" in yellow on the wall in Walt's house at the end of BB.

[@StevieSomethin]

The ABBA song is the perfect song that contextualises the relationship between the brothers as well as Jimmy's determination to be a lawyer

[@write2pras84]

This, to me, was the biggest con of Jimmy ever. I like to think that there was a brief moment during his speech where even he believed himself: he was conning himself.

[@goneyon]

I mean, most of that speech was about how he'll never be as moral and good as Chuck was. He does believe that.

[@goblintwo]

@@goneyon A lie is always easier wrapped in a truth

[@halo289]

Maaaaan this gets way deep when you realize the sacrifice Mike did by killing Werner for the lab. The same lab that Walt just burns to the ground. Mikes sacrifice was for nothing at that point.

[@ratmouthlives]

Peter Gould has said that Saul Goodman is a suit of armor Jimmy wears to protect himself from pain, and that the show is about what makes someone build that armor. This season was all about Jimmy having to confront his grief, his trauma, his pain - and choosing to hide from it, and keep hiding from it until he is alone and exiled in Nebraska.

[@ratmouthlives]

He's a much more sympathetic protagonist than Walt because he is so much more human. Walt wanted control and power, but Jimmy is just scared of being hurt.

[@george8873]

I specifically wanted to see your reaction to Mike using the chewing gum to clog up the gate in this episode, lol. Didn't disappoint.

[@NikkiStevenReact]

dude is a master

[@MorbidDusk]

Interesting! Lalo actually reminded me of Simon, or Steven Ogg himself. Kinda looks like him, and similar demeanor.

[@NikkiStevenReact]

that totally fits too

[@BillyBong]

Not talking about Chuck is actually very sincere.

[@thecoolman122]

Poor Werner. Poor Mike 💔 I could not be away from my beloved for that long..... then Mike had to do what he did... to someone he liked and maybe considered a friend 😭

[@kurydono]

And the last thing Werner said to his wife was he didn't want to see her :C

[@spacemonkeyentertainment6413]

The way i see it, the last thing Werner did was protect his wife in the best way he could come up with on the spot. The last thing he would want her to be doing is snooping around in the general area as that would probably be a shortcut to a bullet in the head. Better make sure she's as far away as possible. It's essentially what Walt does on the phone in BB, when he's playing the part to get his family out of the investigation's crosshairs, except Margarethe might not even get to know what Werner was dealing in and why he "left" the way he did, which makes it even sadder imo.

[@AmateurAnimator]

I got goofed when he was giving his speech at the end of the episode. I had doubts at first but it still got me. ⭐📝😩

[@SketchyMagpie]

Can I just say what a joy it has been to watch you two thoroughly enjoy this show and be as enthralled with it as you were with BB. I think it’s gotten a lot of undue hate (as you’ll have seen with all the “this show is boring!” comments) so it’s nice to see it appreciated!

[@TheSouthernWriter]

Guys, there’s a terrific Kim and Jimmy trailer out for Season 5, which starts in exactly a month. There’s also an awesome ‘Greetings from the Set’ video and like 4 other Season 5 teasers. Would be great if you guys could react to those! Just a suggestion.

[@NikkiStevenReact]

thanks Katherine... since the season is so close, i think we are going to avoid the trailers so we can go in as blind as possible.

[@Carlos-ln8fd]

Loved going on this journey with you guys

[@AstroBoy98]

In Breaking Bad, the moment when Walt let Jane die was, in my opinion, the moment when Walt crosses the threshold that separates a good person from a bad person. I think that Jimmy just crossed that threshold in that last scene. Same with Mike when he shot Werner. Most of what Jimmy has done so far wasn’t only for his benefit. He doctored those documents for Kim, he broke into Chucks house because he felt betrayed, and he sold drop phones in the pursuit of getting a new office for him AND Kim. I think he’s about to unleash his selfishness now. He’s taking Chucks advice. Don’t bother having any regrets!

[@AirBahg]

[@inderlanders6887]

The fact that Gus said to Hector in BrBa S4 that the Salamanca name would die with him while taunting him about his escape from the cartel in "Salud" makes me think that Gus has Lalo sent to Belize in some way or the other.

[@amydubuque2894]

I've been thinking the same thing.

[@TD0150]

We spent the whole season waiting for the moment that Kim will walk away from Jimmy, but as we see in the final moments of the episode, Jimmy (or should I say "Saul") walked away from Kim. He's done asking for help. He doesn't need her. The winner takes it all, and Saul will be the winner. I fully expect to see Saul and Kim face off in a battle of the law in Season 5. Anyways, since you're caught up with everything, why not a suggestion? I think you guys should react to The Wire, it's supposed to be Breaking Bad levels of good.

[@NikkiStevenReact]

We’ve got our next show lined up, thanks though TD!!

[@griffinhardy3911]

[@badzombie0135]

And here we are, all up to date! Saul was my favorite character in BB, and after watching BCS for the second time, it hit me how underused he was in BB. With how good Bob is as an actor, imagine the more in depth stories that could have been told if Saul was given a larger role in BB.

[@NikkiStevenReact]

while i totally agree with you I'm not sure Breaking Bad was his story to be told... Saul is getting 6 seasons to him self and i actually like it better this way. He's an AMAZING character who totally deserves it.

Honestly and I know I might be in the minority on this, so far I think this show is even better than Breaking Bad. And I LOVE Breaking Bad.

[@williamroper5422]

Kim was definitely disappointed with Jimmy in that moment, but I don't think that was that the moment that ended things between them. Their breaking point will be something much more dramatic and heartbreaking than that.

[@kennethhew]

I really can't understand how Nikki and Steven can be rooting so much for Mike who manipulates people, lies to get information and even kills people, yet at the same time when Jimmy schemes or does his salesmanship they think of him like a lowlife. He didn't even kill anyone in fact right from season 1 episode 1 when the two skateboarders are about to be slit by Tuco he intervened to get them not killed. He could've minded his own business and just left. And still they blamed Jimmy for putting those two brats into the situation they're in in the first place. All throughout the series he shows that he cares for people. He cares for Huell, the doll lady, his brother, he even cares for Howard for christ sake, after seeing him in such a horrible state he recommends him to seeing a psychiatrist. Their bias against Jimmy is really unbelievable. They've already seen BB, they should know that no character is ever black or white. In fact having black or white characters would make for boring viewing. As in the real world as well, nothing is ever black or white

[@joey_dangerously]

You may have noticed that most of this season, Gus is shown seated (or from the back with a stand-in). Thats because Giancarlo injured his leg skiing. They had to film many of his scenes after the Season wrapped principal production.
