It was the exact length of his flaccid penis, he's going to give a gag gift to Tio.

The inscription was something like "with love to my brothers" or something along those lines, and the bottom had the company that made it.

Ham for years has been mentioning ice station zebra, and when it inevitably comes up again (which it will, it pretty much has to) I'm sure he will shout from the rafters about being right. But it doesn't actually PROVE anything.


Ice Station Zebra is a line from Kim's favorite movie (Jimmy and Kim watched it together way back when).

It is also the name of a shell corporation that Jimmy ALREADY has incorporated and accounts opened in the name of. He will use it to cash out checks he scams and later to launder money. Didn't he already use it to scam the original tequila stopper guy? The check was made out to Ice Station Zebra. Not sure what else we need to know about ISZ. I do not anticipate a big reveal in regards to that.

But after watching Jimmy interact with Kim after the Howard rumble, I don't think Jimmy was tricked by Howard at all.

I think Jimmy played along to give Howard a semblance of a win before he is totally destroyed by their scheme.


Zero chance this is what happened.

When Jimmy and Kim were laying in bed he says to Kim, "I let Howard suck me in to his game. I should have left him standing there like a putz. Why did I do that?"

Jimmy and Kim may have thought or even wanted Howard to eventually find them out, but there is no way he went there that night to get in a ring with Howard.

It was Howard Hughes’ favorite movie. When he was a recluse who owned a local TV Station, he would call them and tell them to interrupt their schedule to air Ice Station Zebra.

on a re-watch I just realized Kim and Jimmy's plan calls for Jimmy to impersonate the judge, just like Jimmy did Hoard. Kim found out his name from viola and found a picture of him. Jimmy remarked about his large mustache and how he like it because it was less face to worry about. I think he meant less face to worry about with make-up. Jimmy will impersonate the judge with the large handlebar mustache.

Still think Kim gets screwed when the plan to hurt Howard blows up. She and Howard may take each other down.

They definitely intended on Howard figuring it out. They used just enough stealth to hide it from Cliff, while being completely obvious to Howard.

They have some sort of trap set for him to step into. Other than him losing his shite in a public setting, I still can't figure out what the trap is.

IN the scenes from next week they definitely show Saul and Kim go to the Vet, then they show what looks like Saul holding the vet's notebook and Kim holding some business cards which clearly are from the Best vacuum service.
