re: tOfficial Better Call Saul S06E03 “Rock and Hard Place” Thread

Kim's not going to die unless it happens in Gene's timeline, and I find that unlikely.

still dont think shes getting killed off, but im not sure kims death is as off the table as i did initially. theres an awfully big time span left between bcs and bb events.

i originally discounted it because i thought it would have been much shorter timeline and probably impacted saul or been brought up but with about 4 years gap, its not that much of a stretch to go unseen.

I honestly don't know how they'll make up 4 years in the rest of this season.

Time jumps, hell time see-saws. I could see them jumping between 3 different timelines at the very end.

They jumped forward quite a bit at the end of BB so I wouldn't be surprised for BCS to the do the same and tie it all together.

The tequila was blue and Jane was wearing blue when she died too!


Kim is going to die!

Something tells me Howard will outsmart them and end up fricking up Kim’s career and future somehow rather than his being destroyed. And that will cause Jimmy to fully embrace the Saul persona

Makes sense and would explain her absence during BB.

They have to come up with a reason for her to go away before the end of the season.

No they don't.

By this logic, every person Jimmy has interacted with that isn't seen in BB has to have a reason.

yea theres plenty of things that can blowback to kim.

kevin being pissed at jimmy in the club makes him reconsider if she was intentionally tanking mesa verde.

now she is getting involved in the jimmy vs DA about lalo conspiracy. there would be a record of her jail visit to lalo. perhaps she gets caught lying to defend jimmy regarding that investigation. Or it becomes a basis for the DA deciding she is the one who conspired with lalo. jimmy could still be plausibly unaware. these options could just involve jimmy flipping or remaining silent to preserve himself. (the DA even said if he came clean they would not punish him, he could do something that ends up getting kim thrown under the bus while keeping his license)

she could get caught doing something in the howard war that blows back on her. jimmy could waffle at some point in the plan while she presses onward. she could take the blame for all of it. or Jimmy could flip for self preservation. this seems like the most probable and compelling route, but could include the following caveat:
if kim has a middle name and did not list it on the marriage documents, the marriage would be null and the spousal privilege would not apply. which would be the spiciest possible route, making jimmy fully embrace saul in a face off with kimmy. it would be frankensteins monster killing dr frankenstein.

then theres other ways like she decides to just split in the middle of the night like she has done throughout her life. it could be to protect jimmy from the above blowback possibilities or could be lalo related threats or another reason.
