    Better Call Saul is the prequel to the award-winning series Breaking Bad, set six years before Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) became Walter White's lawyer. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and often against, Jimmy is "fixer" Mike Erhmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy's transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts "criminal" in "criminal lawyer."

  • @daansmit7832
    @daansmit7832 2 роки тому +3724

    I think this scene illustrates an important part of the transformation that Saul goes through during BCS. In the beginning of the scene you can clearly see him express partial regret for defending someone who is obviously guilty and seeing the family of Fred.
    When he is trying to make a case for 'Jorge' and lie about him having a family and close ties to ABQ, you can hear him doubting himself. Especially after glancing over to Fred's family briefly you can see him think 'No I have to do this' and snap back into his Saul character. The tension between his human decency and his alter ego is very beautifully written and expressed.

      4:25 The Saul persona was not as strong as you say. His face slips into relief for a split second when he hears the bail is extremely high, before he puts on fake outrage as part of his job. He barely acts like he's sorry about the outcome with Lalo, before becoming genuinely shaken when Lalo has the money AND he's stuck with another job.

Sand is required for cement/concrete, the grains found in the desert are smooth and bad for bonding, sand found at the bottom of the ocean is sharper and makes stronger/durable cement.

      @diamondbrook 2 роки тому +151

      At the same time, judge created a bad situation. Because if the perp is actually a criminal with 7 million dollars to spare, the bail conditions the judge set made it such that a criminal with proven and ready access to millions of dollars has *6 weeks* until his next hearing. If the system worked Lalo would’ve been rightly recognized as a flight risk after murdering Fred from travelwire in cold blood and the judge would’ve been denied bail. If the court had done its job Howard would still be alive. It’s like the district attorney says, the whole system failed to in any way contain or punish a killer and defrauder wanted by the federal govt. But then again both this show and bb are centred on the lives of career criminals, so it’s not too surprising to see such a case of judicial incompetence demonstrated in bcs

Since the only ID they got to identify Lalo was with a forced witness testimony (thanks to Mike), there was reasonable doubt which is why the judge decided to grant bail. Otherwise if there was more concrete evidence then they would have denied the bond.
      That being said, $7 million was technically excessive for someone with a “clean” record. And if Jimmy actually cared about helping him he could have argued that. But he was hoping that it would keep Lalo behind bars, severely underestimating the Cartel’s resources

      Totally agree. His brother represented the higher level of morality standard to him and he admired him for it, but he would not gather the idea of Jimmy being a lawyer as he had a tainted past as "slipping Jimmy". I believe he kept trying to be "worthy of the law" to Chuck's eyes right until his death, which triggers his obscure persona to get a hold of his personality. The battle of good and evil within him resonates many people involved in crime, a corrupt system, that labels you, doesn't give you the chance to redeem yourself of your past actions, doesn't believe in you when you're trying to change, will just end up bringing the worse of you.

    I watched this show when it was first airing and then binge-watched it again before the final season. The first time, you get the full ride with all the surprises and twists and turns. The next time, when you already know what's coming, you start picking up on the little details of the writing, acting, set design, cinematography, etc. that flew by the first time. That's when you really start appreciating the attention to detail that I think made the difference between it being a really good show and a really great one.

For such a large amount, they're going to do their own due diligence and they're probably going to ask for extra collateral (just in case, things go sideways). After all, bail bondsmen are still business men. Even if the person has the 10% in cash for the fee, the bondsman is under no obligation to loan that person the entire amount if they do not trust that person.

    I don't know if it was stated before but the stain on the ceiling next to the illuminated ceiling light has to be a metaphor for Jimmy crossing a serious line in his inner morality. Like his soul now being tainted beyond reprieve.

    I love how purposefully vague Saul was when reminding Lalo of the guy he murdered/why they were there. Chose his words carefully w/ "the guy who died" instead of "The guy you killed"

      It’s black mold growing towards the light.
      I think it’s vince’s way of symbolizing how Saul is slowly being corrupted by defending Lalo (who is most definitely guilty)

    Jimmy looked back at the family, in reality he was taking one last look at his humanity and then turning his back on it. A key moment in Jimmy turning into Saul.
