re: Better Call Saul Season 2 Finale: "Klick"

i agree with the guy two posts ago about the messenger.

so out of nowhere his horn goes off and no tracks in site? was it a ghost?


that was a huge stretch

Either someone was watching Mike or someone was also watching Hector and doesn't want him dead.

Like I said, the most obvious choice is Fring. Killing Hector may be worse for his business than just wounding him. That may be the way that those two are hooked up. Fring brings Mike into the fold and has him be the one to put Hector into the wheel chair.

logisitics don't seem to be possible. For starters someone would have had to tail mike, which based on his background seems he'd be wise to. Next, someone would have to get to the car, leave the note, put the stick in the car on the horn, then disappear all before mike comes back. Mike would have seen if there were tire tracks or someone had peeled out, adn there damn sure wasn't anywhere noticable for someone on foot to hide. Where did the messenger go?

They already showed us that Mike is fallible. The cousins tailed him to the new apartment and revealed themselves to him for that purpose. Gus could have had Hector's store under surveillance and noticed Mike. He could have had Hector's truck shop where money is removed from tires under surveillance and noticed Mike. If Gus's people had Hector's murder shack in the desert under surveillance, they could have also noticed Mike.

Once they make themselves known to Mike, he realizes he is under surveillance by people who may well be armed also. This makes it unwise to go hunting for the guy in the surroundings who just sent him a message without killing him. Mike has to know the person who did it is nearby and possibly has a gun barrel pointed right at him. It's clean. No bodies. Mike respects a good chess move and leaves.

Maybe jimmy does get disbarred and has to change name to saul to get a new license?

I dont know how this whole lawyer thing works though.

My guess is that Nacho was wise to Mike's plans, even in the scene where they're taking the driver to Hector's safehouse Nacho looked wary like he was expecting to be tailed. And as was pointed out, Mike was pretty bold following them in the open desert; Nacho is no dummy and it had to cross his mind that there was a strong possibility Mike would follow them. Maybe he had someone in the area where he suspected Mike would set up.

wonder if they will go with the big FU to Chuck and show that the batteries were bad from sitting in the box for so damn long.

I'm pretty sure they showed the wheels turning in the tapes, but I could be mistaken.

Just watched so I haven't read the Thread.Dang Chuck conned Slippin' Jimmy.

I'm sure I'm not the 1st to guess that the "Don't" note came somehow from Gustavo Fring.



eta:May be wrong but I think Chuck is more likely to hold the recording over his head to make James McGill,Esq. stop practicing law than get Jimmy in legal trouble.

Whether that allows him to be Saul Goodman,I kinda doubt.Maybe Chuck dies and Jimmy keeps his promise to Chuck about "No more James McGill,Esq.",and that is the reason for Saul Goodman.

Just spitballing.

Nobody is getting disbarred..........the whole point of the show last night was showing how infallible Chuck was and how perfect he was down to every detail......except when he thermally sound proofed his Microphone to try to pull a slippin jimmy on his brother.

Chuck doesn't have shite even though the cliff hanger alludes it.....come time for him to prove evidence it will be nothing more than distorted ruffling.

I love the show. It's so well written and the acting is so great. If you would have told me 5 years ago, one of the best dramas on TV would star half of Mr. Show and Lenny from Laverne & Shirley, I wouldn't have believed you.

The last scene needs to be Jimmy/Saul wrapping up business and Walter White stepping in his office. And I'm also convinced Jimmy is going to see Kim at the Omaha mall, probably with her husband and kids. (Didn't they say she's from the Kansas/Nebraska line?)
