I was surprised Jimmy didn't try and get his money back from the hoodlums.

Don't be a dumbass. If Kim does not help Saul's law firm into the BB era I will be right here to eat my crow.

I assume they took everything from them when hanging them up.

Nope I find their side of the storyline more entertaining than the Gus/Mike part. Mainly because I pretty much know how that side is going to end up.

That's not what I envision. The only thing I'm sure about is she will still be helping Saul into the BB era.

They may still be a couple, they may not. Probably safer for Kim if they're not.



So what’s the purpose of writers introducing a multi-season romantic relationship? Are you suggesting the romance leads to a “let’s just be secret busIness partners” relationship? They could have accomplished that without an attractive female in the role of business partner. They needed a female love interest for Saul to help explain his elevated lack of compassion for others. They need the character to be hurt even more than what they’ve already shown us for us to have the type of compassion needed to maintain interest in Gene.

If they made Kim into just a frick buddy or a business partner after a romantic relationship ends, that’s just not very compelling character development.

I'm not really making any suggestions about their love life. I don't know how it's going to progress.

The only thing I'm suggesting is that Saul Goodman is not working alone. Kim will help him from a safe distance.

This is based upon several hints and Easter eggs.

Well that’s no longer much of a stretch. We all knew Saul doesn’t work alone. He’s always been shown to have a deep rolodex of connections to help make things happen. The thought of Kim now being another name in the Rolodex isn’t much of a stretch, nor should it have ever been. You previously gave the impression that they had a near constant collaboration during the BB timeline and were essentially partners.

Well, I have been called crazy since the start of season 2 for suggesting it.

She will be more than a name in the Rolodex. She most likely will handle his loan out. She will probably also help with law strategy when needed.. Jimmy has used her for this more than once already.

I think that's pretty close to how it will be. Constant collaboration isn't the right phrase though. She won't have to talk to Saul every 5 minutes.

She would simply need to be there for the things Saul can't handle on his own. Manage the loan out, give advice when needed, etc.

Because in the episode we are supposed to be discussing they revealed whose card Saul handed to Francesca.

As soon as I point it out, I have to fight off an army of mouth breathers waiting for Kim to die or leave so Jimmy can instantly transform from a Mogwai to a Gremlin.

Because you’ve shifted your goalposts several times.

You’ve gone from they are complete partners with Kim directly behind the scenes the entire time to some vague thing where Kim’s law firm may help Saul in some way.

Wrong, I still maintain she is behind the scenes with him. I've always felt she handles ISZA from a safe distance.

She will be up to her neck in it, but she can't do it from Saul's office and I said that from the start.

Hey Ham,

Do you need the number of a good "vacuum repair service" for when your theory blows up or have you already created your alter.


If it's the former, might I suggest the vacuum repair guy assign you something like "Gene Wexler"

If it blows up, I will come take my medicine.


Go back and look at why people used to tell me it was impossible. The number 1 reason was that Jimmy had to lose Kim so he could BECOME Saul.

I said Saul is only a persona that Jimmy uses and Kim will help him.

The Saul persona is being created right now and he's still banging Kim at the moment.

So far I would say it's trending my way.

Kim and Jimmy are deeply intertwined in the BCS arc to BB but Vince has a way of blowing our minds so that is my guess. Vince uses their "split" to set another unforgettable moment in the BB/BCS world.

Book it..it will be memorable.
