there we get a backstory to why Jessy leads Walt to Saul. Because he has an image of this lawyer getting Krazy-8 out of jail two times when it was absolutely no chance whatsoever to get out

[@zekeiwa5837]

That was Emilio, but same. Emilio probably got out because of his connection to Domingo. They released Emilio because they were after Jesse, and since Emilio died shortly after being released Jesse never thought about how could Emilio be released or he just assumed Saul took care of it

[@dtczyk8976]

Emilio. Not Krazy 8.

[@wolfboy420]

Well, there's alot more than that, as well. Jesse had several reasons. Kim Wexler (the attorney that represented Combo) personally vouched for him. Emilio, and also the fact that by the beginning of Breaking Bad, Saul was also widely known to have gotten Lalo and other high level cartel members out of prison when no one else could have (or would have) done so.

[@maskedmarvyl4774]

The irony here is that Saul does an excellent job representing his client and keeping him alive in spite of Krazy 8's refusal to cooperate. He really went above and beyond for his client, in a way that most lawyers wouldn't have.

[@chrisdonovan8795]

Jimmy took shortcuts, but he was undeniably smart and took pride in doing a good job. It's just that for him, getting the win was way more important than actually helping people. Almost all the characters in the show, except for Hank, Gomez, Howard and Walt Jr. were like that. They didn't care too much about who they hurt.

[@mysterion1899]

that was all a show. this was, as hank says, "one big jag off" and saul was feigning being hurt by the "lack of faith in his attorney". but yes Saul is a good lawyer

I always thought that Krazy-8 being a DEA informant was just a throwaway line by Hank in BrBa. But the crazy bastards in the Better Call Saul's writing team actually wrote in a compelling story behind all of that. BCS is truly a masterpiece of a prequel in that regard.

[@IsyMaxine]

I honestly like BCS better than BrBa. I think it is much more tragic, and not too many cringe characters come to mind, unlike Walt's super cringe family. It was also nice to see a lot of origins to many of the characters/their backstory, such as Mike, Don Hector, and obviously Saul. Not to mention, Nacho's arc was just absolutely incredible and very well performed.

[@MTGandP]

Krazy-8 being an informant was instrumental in kicking off the plot of Breaking Bad: 1. Krazy-8 ratted on Jesse and Emilio, forcing Jesse to partner up with Walt 2. Krazy-8 accused Jesse of being the rat, and he and Emilio and tried to kill Walt and Jesse, which forced Walt down his path to, you know, break bad

BCS is more of a Peter Gould show, Vince barely participated outside of seasons 1 and 6. And yes, they defintely grew as a creators after BB - they took BCS on another level in terms of storytelling and character development.

[@returnoftheredeye]

The pacing was one of the biggest differences that stood out for me. In BB, so much happens in even the first episode. By contrast in BCS, we spend what felt like forever watching Jimmy/Saul wrestling with whether to go straight or crooked. BCS asks more patience of the viewer, but the payoff is that you feel way more invested in the characters and their reasons for being in their situation.

[@MatthewGross87]

@@returnoftheredeye And you absolutely need that investment of the characters combined with a deeper understanding of why they are the way they are because so many of them have plot armor. It ends up driving the show! And the beautiful thing is that once you get this investment coupled with more details on the whole BCS / BB universe, it deeply enriches both shows.

[@omegajrz1269]

After seeing this scene, we can't forget one thing: The money from Fring's organization is the same that Walter sees on television in the Pilot of Breaking Bad. And that's when Walter conceives the idea of creating an empire. And who allowed Krazy-8 to tell Hank and Steve about the money? Saul And who gave them the location of the house where Jesse was while Walter went with them? Krazy-8. Thanks to whom? Saul It's pretty obvious. I know. But I also know that not everyone put the threads together correctly. I mean, in addition to unconsciously getting Kim to bring out her dark side, by seeing him on TV (1×04, BCS), he also got Walter to do the same in the Pilot.

[@khakis69]

There are actually ~4 years between this moment, and the beginning of breaking bad, so the money Walter saw in the first episode was not from this. Fring was doing much better at that point, thanks to the Salamancas being out of his way... until around season 3 of breaking bad when the twins show up.

[@heartnet40]

The first time we see Hank and Saul interact, Saul pulls a fast one and makes Hank look like a fool. This last time (which is canonically the first time lol) we see them together, Saul is *barely* able to manage the DEA into a deal and all under Hank's consent first and foremost. A nice little callback scene to be sure, but I like how it shows that Jimmy didn't just start out capable of manipulating everyone, the DEA included. It took time. He struggles in this prequel scene so that his original scene makes him seem so much more impressive. The writers really didn't miss a step in telling Jimmy's story.
