Do you think she moved the chair to put on a brave face for Jimmy or do you think she actually felt better after talking with Jimmy?



shes brave facing it. she was visibily shook after meeting with mike and since then she has been looking over her shoulder knowing men are following them. (hello nacho talking with don eladio about not having to look over his shoulder and being in the wrong business).

kim doesnt feel safe. and literally all of the backstory we have on kim is her having to flee homes in the middle of the night and going her own way when she didnt feel safe riding in the car with her drunk mom.
this plus no toothbrush toiletries or clothes at her husbands house... no signs of her or reason to be in BB....kim flees.

You're a moron that argues with me because upvotes make you feel good.

There's plenty of conflicting evidence in that house.

There are exactly 3 signs that Kim has been there vs. your tooth brush theory you got from reddit. The toothbrush thing is worth considering though, I'll give you that, but even at 3-1 there are other factors about that scene you haven't even taken into consideration.

You simply don't think through what they're showing you in context with the rest of the episode.

You clearly believe some sort of switch is going to get flipped turning Jimmy into Saul.

If you pay attention to the full episode you'll realize that's not what's going on there.

I think we can concede some points to Ham by now. Kim is already giving her opinions to Jimmy about Saul's image and helping to craft the character. She's trying to help him get his share of the Sandpiper settlement, which would be a nice chunk of change for them launching their new practices. Early on, most of us thought there was no way she'd go this far with Saul Goodman. Only question is how long she sticks around. I still say she's gone by the time we meet him in BB.

On the Sandpiper settlement, this video gives a pretty good recap on their motives for screwing with Howard: Youtube

Howard is literally fighting back, wonder what he has in store regarding retribution with kim.


Howard abducts Kim to keep in his basement and in the process murders Lalo when he is at the wrong place at the wrong time.

He then makes it look like Kim ran off and fricked Saul over, using his legal knowledge to tie it all up as well.. he then pretends to be her from time to time in communications with Saul, for his own amusements.

I think Howard ends up destroyed. This show is not kind to people and we know Saul keeps going.

Don't think the town is big enough for them to both coexist for the next 5 years.

I also think whatever Howard's big blow up is happens on June 18th 2004.

The Indian got his check from the Kettlemans in late May.

The show flaunted 618 in front of us. I think it has something to do with Howard's downfall.

You're this far into the show notorious for slow burn, world-building, and rewarding the observant watcher and complaining about this? Gtfo and enjoy for what it is. Nothing in BCS moves quickly and most everything is done for a reason.

Want to watch something more exciting then change the channel.

Decent episode. I guess I am still confused about what Lalo is trying to prove. I thought he was trying to prove that Gus had Nacho working as a traitor against the Salamancas. It appears he is trying to find out what Gus is building in secret, but I don't see how that ties it back to Nacho. Or is he simply trying to show Gus has another secret business in opposition to the Salamancas?

Howard's vehicle registration expires Dec 2005. They made that very clear by having his plate fill the entire screen.

Unless some states have 2 year regs, WI doesn't so I don't know, it's 2005.

Where did he know even where to start looking? Did he get Verners address from the Western Union where he killed that kid?

I don't think he got the address. I think he just got the city.

Well then that's remarkable.. To find a woman he doesn't know what she looks like in a foreign city. Lalo got skillzzz.

I was glad to see him back on the screen.
