Wrong, they showed you in season 3 episode 1 that they have some type of contact.

Man, you need to really listen to some of the insider podcasts, especially 606. Vince specifically says one of the greatest compliments he gets is when people tell him he must have had it planned out from the very beginning. Because he hasn’t. They get off on writing themselves in corners and figuring shite out as they go and making things that didn’t mean anything at the time wind up meaning things. He specifically mentioned Aaron Paul/Jesse and Rhea Seahorn/Kim as not knowing what they had in the characters and the actors during the 1st seasons. Then shite grew organically, they realized what they could do, and they used what May have been meant to be throw away things at the time and add more significant meaning to it.

Kim may very well be running Ice Station Zebra and Associates during BB. (She won’t, but I’ll humor you. ) But that doesn’t mean they had that mapped out from as far back as when you figured it out. Gould talks about the same thing, figuring things out as they go. Hell, the 1st idea for this prequel was a half-hour sitcom.

And I’ve been meaning to say that the Kansas City Royals AAA team is in—-you guessed it—Omaha, Nebraska. No other pro teams in Nebraska, so no big surprise that the Royals would be well represented at a mall in Omaha. Now, her wearing that shirt in the finale meant something, but likely something they figured out after the fact.

Your thoughts aren’t terrible—some are even smart. But you’re an a-hole, so people, can’t wait to a shite on you when you’re wrong. Even though, I’ve been wrong about 10 times in this thread alone. Try a bit of humility and you might see better results in the communication with you. You could truly add valuable stuff if everybody wasn’t so conditioned to automatically tune you out. Or keep being an a-hole. We’re gonna enjoy these either way.

I get bored of hearing this. Sure he didn’t have J+K etched in stone, he could have blown it up at anytime.

They had full series goals from the start, they just didn't commit until it was working.

I'm sure they didn't sit down and write a full 6 seasons, but they had J+K=S penciled in from episode 1 as long as it was working. Mark my words, and ridicule me later.

If I'm borrowing from Chuck, they've really muddied the waters on the Saul BB scene where he's scared of Lalo.

---

Lalo could leave his house, be killed by someone later in private and Jimmy is never told..being if Gus does it, that info doesn't need to get out.

quote:

---

There's no way he should think Lalo is alive, but also blame Nacho for something underhanded.

At this point he knows zero about Nacho helping kill Lalo, Nacho's not coming back to tell him.

---

Lalo is kinda open. He is about to have a long talk with Jimmy. He may tell about his people being killed, a murder attempt, Germany etc.

quote:

---

At some point he somehow has to learn that the cartel believes Nacho Killed Lalo, which almost certainly has to come from Mile, possibly via Kim.

---

..you ok?

How did Jimmy spit out the exact thing the cartel believes to be true?

We used to think he conspired with Nacho, but Nacho won't give him answers.

Only 1 reason BB Saul thinks Lalo's alive.

1. Lalo tells Saul about Nacho then dies without Saul's knowledge.

Per Vince's ptsd scenario where Saul knows he's dead.

1. Saul set's him up for Mike to kill, Saul's told to blame Nacho if it comes up.

2. Mike kills Lalo, Saul's told via Mike or Kim to blame Nacho.

With the cousins running around it would make since that everyone says blame Nacho. Lalo would still be dangerous after death.

This is common knowledge to anyone that pays attention not named Ham Solo.

It was the same with BB as well.

Hell, any show over a number of seasons. Mad Men didn't plan to have Don come up with the Coke song at a hippy commune after 7 seasons.

I think this is what happens, feel like the gun in the lab comes into play with it. Wouldn't be be surprised if Gus buries him under cement in the lab's foundation.

Gus was confident in telling Hector that the Salamanca name dies with him. What im wondering on this with Hector..is if he has mentioned to Leonel and Marco that their family is still alive. Those two would be solid guys to have in your pocket while doing what lalo is doing. Now, last Hector heard Lalo was going after Gus in an on the fly attempt to throw Gus off in that phone call.. If Lalo leaves, and is killed by Gus in private..im not sure Hector ever mentions he was actually alive to anyone. Being he now assumes Lalo went rogue against the cartel with no actual proof.

Holy shite, that was right up there with Ozymandias in terms of quality. The candle flicker as Lalo walks in is just perfection.

If you believe professional writers are flying 100% by the seat of their pants knowing they have to meet up with BB, you're a complete fricking idiot.

---

No shite they have to meet up with BB. That leaves a pretty wide open path to get there over 6 seasons and none of it guarantees your crackpot theories.

Frankly, FOAD you worthless frick.

because he seems terrified

Once he learns there is No Lalo..he is incredibly relieved. Whats funny is that someone still just abducted him, brought him out into the middle of nowhere at gunpoint and showed him a fresh empty unmarked grave..yet in this position, he's happy when he realises its not Lalo's orchestration. He seems to connect certain death with him.
