Better Call Saul ***Spoilers***

Just on what will happen on the Gene timeline this is interesting to watch and discusses what we've seen of Gene in the flash forward and what year it takes place. it also delves into possible outcomes for Jimmy.

Again this was put together before season 6 but still relevant

Sorry, not quoting the above, not sure how it happened.

Loved that episode. Thinking about it all day.

One question, how did they switch the photos. I thought the PI left Howard's office before the meeting in the board room.

The fake PI most likely went back into Howard’s office when he went to the mediation with his PA.

I believe Howard suggested this?

A theory about what?

The post you quoted is a theory.

Fring was on edge waiting for Lalo to strike. They show him go to the secret area, he examines how the lights work and counts out steps to a different and hides agin.

It is obvious that he did this in the hopes of somehow getting Lalo to enter the lab.

It doesn’t mean I correct. The trap could be for someone else like Eladio. I assume Fring is building a secret lab so that he can strike out on his own. He needs to be rid of the cartel to do that.

However I cannot remember if Fring still works for Eladio in Breaking Bad. I also don’t what to be reminded. That way my theories remain theories and I get surprised by events.

Unbelievable television.

I've seen a few comments from the people involved in the show that this season will cause BB to viewed in a different light. I think the happy go lucky personality from BB is just a public persona and underneath he is a much more troubled person. You can even see the seeds of that this season where he seems more of an asshole than usual when he is with Francesca

Well, that is just not true.

When Lalo saw the cockroach and left his hiding place it was obvious we’re he was going and why - to Jimmy to use him to somehow get to Fring.

In season one it was obvious that it was Chuck and not Howard that blocked his attempt to get a job at HHM. And it was obvious that Howard didn’t like it.

Before anyone gets excited I’m not at all saying the show is predictable. It is the furthest from predictable you can get and even when the obvious things come to pass there is always an unexpected effect.

Let's wait and see then.

Oh dear. Communication doesn't seem to be a strong point with you. Let's wait and see if you're right about the handgun in the lab. Mr. Obvious.

Can we just celebrate how brilliant Patrick Fabian was as Howard. Fantastic. He will be missed.

There's about 4 years between BCS (2004) and BB (2008).

Let's not forget that as much as they try to stick to continuity, they will recon or change things if they need to in order to serve the story they're currently telling. Mike's granddaughter's age is all over the place because they needed her to be able to have coherent conversations with Mike in BCS to service his story, whereas really she should have been maybe 5 or 6 years old based on her age in BB.

A few throwaway lines in BB will be sacrificed as just being a joke or probably a lie Saul told in BB if it doesn't tally with his story in BCS. No hints at Kim or his feelings about her in BB can be explained as the years having passed or also just Saul was never mates with Walt or Jesse and never talked about anything like that. Jimmy is the person, Saul is the persona. He had no reason to drop the mask like that with Walt/Jesse.

Kim is his third wife. He mentioned his previous too marriages to the registrar when he was marrying Kim, most likely to be consistent with that line from BB.

Some are saying they found the ending surprising/shocking ... but c'mon, as soon as we saw that candle flicker, before Howard even entered, we thought of Lalo - then it happened to be Howard, but that candle flickered yet again - we knew what was coming. And once Lalo entered, it was never going good for Howard was it? He was never letting him leave - it was quite blunt how they did it, and a bit of a 'shock' moment yes, but we still knew it was coming

Yeah I guess/agree - I mean I never put Howard and Lalo together in a scene in any way prior to this. But I'm saying as an end to the mid-season, after we know Lalo is out, and then Howard on the war path - not all too surprising, as I say, once we know - there's no major surprise, Howard is never leaving that apartment
