I think being a friend of the cartel would be good for any lawyer. Its only Saul's unique circumstances and troubles that made it a problem. In real life, being a cartel lawyer sounds like the perfect job to me. Tons of money, VERY good connections, better protection than the cops and virtually no danger. Who's gonna go after the cartel's lawyer? Bosses come and go but the lawyer stays. And unlike BCS, I seriously doubt said lawyer's colleagues would give a shit about "right and wrong". Real people just dont care about such things. They wanna stay out of trouble and make bank. I could be wrong but I think Saul receiving punishment for being a friend of the cartel is more a moral statement by Gilligan and Gould than a realistic scenario.
It's dumb for anyone to get mad at Jimmy about this. The judge has the option to deny bail. The fact they turn up with it is entirely on the system and the judge. It's obviously meant to fuck over poor people and let the rich fuck around.

In real life, they probably would have sealed off the whole lobby while counting that much money. They wouldn't let the public just stroll in and out until after the count was done.
This just shows how insanely stupid the whole American bail/bond system is. Innocent poor people who can't pay stay in jail while guilty rich people go free.
Uh no, skipping bail is illegal whether you are rich or not lol. Poor people usually finance with a bail bondsmen, and they can still skip bail as well. "Free" lmao
That just isn’t how bail works bro. Bail isn’t a get out of jail free card, you come back for your trial and they give you your money back. Skipping bail is very fucking illegal.
@@HaloDude557 ironically, the bail bondsman is even worse... They take like a 10% cut that you won't get back no matter what. If you pay bond in full and then show up, you get all of it back (minus a small admin fee, I bet).

In reality, they wouldn't have let Lalo out until the money was proven to be from a clean source.. and since the money was dirty, it would've been confiscated and Lalo would've caught an extra charge..
That would only have happend if he were the source of a major investigation, and had his assets frozen. Which he hasn't as Lalo is a first time offender(legally speaking), hence why she's reacting in that way to the 7 million.

Billing isn't quite accurate. If you show up to court then you get the money. Its to make sure you actually show up to trial instead of running for the hills.
Super late on this, but I figure this might clear it up if you're still not sure how bond works. (For the record, I don't say I agree with it by saying this though ;p) It's basically like a refundable deposit that's set based on the severity of your accused crimes, and how likely they think you are to skip town. You're not forced to pay it, but if you don't they hold you in jail which can take months to years depending on just how bogged down the courts are where you're located. If you do pay it though, they set you free under the stipulation that you have to return when it's time for trial. If you return, they pay it all back (as I said, like a refundable deposit) but if you don't, it's all gone and forfeited. It's supposed to be an incentive to show up to court because sometimes it can be quite a lot of money to lose. For normal people who aren't rich though, that's what bail bondsmen are for. They're like lenders who lend the bond money directly to the courts. If you don't show up, you owe them money, and they will send bounty hunters to collect you and take you back to court (and then almost certainly jail for skipping trial).
@@frankk1512 A TV show that attempts an accurate representation of the US legal system. If it fails at this, it becomes a worse show as it doesn't achieve one of it's intended portrayal. If the show is set grounded in reality, the occuring events have to be feasible and possible in a hypothetical manner. If Lalo could suddenly fly and shoot lasers at will while everything else is still realistic, Better Call Saul would be a bad show.
If Lalo was denied bail then he would just sit in jail still running the Salamancas with Nacho until his trial. At his trial, with the only witness tying him to the crime deemed unreliable, I doubt he gets charged with murder but he might still get charged with the hit and run. With Saul as his lawyer thats maybe minimal to no jail time. So he probably doesn't kill Howard but he still goes after the chicken man which would still, probably, get him killed.
1:10 In France, as lawyer, we have the legal duty to make the due diligence of our clients ... So if he gives to us 7M dollars, we have the duty to verify the origin and if it's suspicious, we have to alert the authority
So let me try to understand this, in France... people's lawyers are obligated to RAT THEIR CLIENTS OUT TO THE COPS? LOL. I guess it doesn't matter in France where you get less than 10 years for murder, but here in the US, where they will literally fry you to death and give you 80 years for selling some drugs, our lawyers are sort of obligated to like...not rat on us, even if they KNOW we are guilty of a crime. They pretend like we're innocent and go from there. And we legally have complete confidentially with a lawyer, meaning they don't have to tell the cops ANYTHING about us or what we tell them or anything.
I’m sure they have to do the due diligence in the US, but you can’t expect Saul to reveal anything of course. So he’ll do anything he can to avoid doing so.

7 million what is that like 1 day of revenue or less for a cartel guy like Lao? Juarez cartel as a whole is damn big at least in real life or was, made billions a year. Its estimated that El Chapo was taking into his pocket 3 billion a year.

My Great Grandparents would be in trouble in today's world. They lived through the Great Depression and never trusted banks again. When they died (before my time) their children had to flip through all the books in the house where they would find random $100bills, or stacks of cash hidden in the weirdest places. They were furniture makers and some of the furniture they made for themselves had hidden panels, loaded with cash, jewelry, gold, etc. Today if the government ran across someone like that they'd take it all, throw your ass in jail, and proclaim you guilty until proven innocent.
@@justinisorange They made furniture and fabrics. They were not wealthy. They just saw too many people lose it all when a bank went under to ever trust them again. You and I did not live through the Great Depression, so have very little understanding of how they must have felt.
This show lacked a lot of conditions the legal system has. For a bail amount that high they'd first have to prove that full $7,000,000 didn't come from proceeds of a crime which is highly unlikely in this scenario.
Unlike many, I think this is the only time Lalo was being genuinely friendly to Jimmy. The funny thing is, given who he is, all those compliments can't help but feel like threats, even if they weren't

You're not forced to pay it, but if you don't they hold you in jail which can take months to years depending on just how bogged down the courts are where you're located.
If you do pay it though, they set you free under the stipulation that you have to return when it's time for trial. If you return, they pay it all back (as I said, like a refundable deposit) but if you don't, it's all gone and forfeited. It's supposed to be an incentive to show up to court because sometimes it can be quite a lot of money to lose.
For normal people who aren't rich though, that's what bail bondsmen are for. They're like lenders who lend the bond money directly to the courts. If you don't show up, you owe them money, and they will send bounty hunters to collect you and take you back to court (and then almost certainly jail for skipping trial).
@@frankk1512 A TV show that attempts an accurate representation of the US legal system. If it fails at this, it becomes a worse show as it doesn't achieve one of it's intended portrayal.
If the show is set grounded in reality, the occuring events have to be feasible and possible in a hypothetical manner. If Lalo could suddenly fly and shoot lasers at will while everything else is still realistic, Better Call Saul would be a bad show.
Lalo was the perfect bad guy god damn they made a great character
4:19 lalos backhanded compliment 😂
Howard & Lalo would still be alive if this didn’t happen
But Gus doesn't like that
Nope dude
Lalo’s days were numbered.
Howard would still be alive if it weren’t for Jimmy and Kim
If Lalo was denied bail then he would just sit in jail still running the Salamancas with Nacho until his trial. At his trial, with the only witness tying him to the crime deemed unreliable, I doubt he gets charged with murder but he might still get charged with the hit and run. With Saul as his lawyer thats maybe minimal to no jail time.
So he probably doesn't kill Howard but he still goes after the chicken man which would still, probably, get him killed.
That's the moment we knew the twins were bad at math

Not really, $7M for bail and $100K for Saul's fee - as seen when the bail office woman hands Saul back 10 wads of $10K. Oh yeah, and... maths!

3:27 He was right. Already dead.
This is the moment Lalo became free Lalo.
1:10 In France, as lawyer, we have the legal duty to make the due diligence of our clients ... So if he gives to us 7M dollars, we have the duty to verify the origin and if it's suspicious, we have to alert the authority
Okay how tf can lawyer find out something like that?
So let me try to understand this, in France... people's lawyers are obligated to RAT THEIR CLIENTS OUT TO THE COPS? LOL. I guess it doesn't matter in France where you get less than 10 years for murder, but here in the US, where they will literally fry you to death and give you 80 years for selling some drugs, our lawyers are sort of obligated to like...not rat on us, even if they KNOW we are guilty of a crime. They pretend like we're innocent and go from there. And we legally have complete confidentially with a lawyer, meaning they don't have to tell the cops ANYTHING about us or what we tell them or anything.
Yep
First world lawyers Vs USA lawyers
I will just do 6 million then
I’m sure they have to do the due diligence in the US, but you can’t expect Saul to reveal anything of course. So he’ll do anything he can to avoid doing so.
I think when someone pays 7 Million to the state to get out of prison, this is just further proof that they are guilty as shit.
Don’t set a bail if you don’t think they’ll show
I know right? Like what did they think it was never going to happen?
That sigh when she sees both bags LOL
They ask for $7 million and yet they’re surprised to see it, don’t ask if you don’t want to know.
They set exhorbitant bail all the time to keep people in, not because they expect ot to be paid.
2:34 Is he saying „kaputt“ in german?
Kaput, we use the term in the US
Sort of - it's a common phrase in (US) English too.

Hey im german. Yep he sais gaputt. It means destroyed @@patrickgildhorn
@@niklas7355 heil my friend !
Kim screwed it up, because at that moment Lalo realize he could use them both in the future.
BCS is so fun to watch for the cinematography alone. Every frame of him sending the money is visually satisfying and comically entertaining.
No need for money laundering huh? How come they didn’t question lalo if he’s money is clean?
By the time they did, he wasn't in the country anymore
@MentalWarfare Judge said cash only
@MentalWarfare damn man
@@MrRushhour4 But cash only refers to anything "cash" like. Wire transfer or money order etc. It just means no check or credit card and most importantly, no collateral, I believe. Just in full, $7 million.
@@jonny-b4954 you cant spend more than 2500$ in a day with a credit card...
So I looked it up 7 mil in $100 bills is 154 pounds
So basically carrying a body. Possible
Maybe not by someone built like Jimmy though
@@ego6342 nobody could drag 154 pounds through the desert.
Not saul. Not a power lifter.
Once the temperature rises and the electrolytes diminish, you're done.
@@JESUSLIVESAMEN ah no its possible. If you had water at least. In this instance, probably not. But it's possible.
@@ego6342 he would be lucky to walk one mile every 3 hours.
His best chance at survival is to hide in the shade near the roads and wait for mike to bring a search party
7 mil is probably worth several bodies.
This is one of the shows of all time!
This Lalo guy reminds me so much of my Uncles back in Mexico. A jolly guy with a smile and a pat on the back. What a wholesome fellow!
jorge seems like such a nice guy
Jorge is such a wholesome nice guy.
hello from 2024 where Diddy offered the court 50 million for bail and the court was like “nah”
They know that he would hop on a plane and flee the country. They didn't know Lalo was a major member of the drug cartel that could drop 7 mil on a whim, else they would've denied any bail.
Imagine if Jimmy just told Lalo the entire story
Would they really just accept two duffel bags full of 7 million dollars like that no questions asked? He better have a good story for that
The judge asked specifically for 7 milions in cash, so two bags of money seems the most obvious solution
All that cash and they didn't put a notch in the cash room in mexico
7 million what is that like 1 day of revenue or less for a cartel guy like Lao? Juarez cartel as a whole is damn big at least in real life or was, made billions a year. Its estimated that El Chapo was taking into his pocket 3 billion a year.
You should look up the "how much is x" worth in Breaking Bad. He actually goes through the net worth of every character from behind the scenes. pretty cool stuff :)
Such a generous donation to the city of Albuquerque from the Salamanca family
Looks like he paid 7 million in full amount instead of pledging the entirety.
They DA’s left so suddenly because they were probably going to try and find a judge and get the bond revoked.
The only thing that bothers me about this is it says they're only open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 pm. That doesn't look like no 4:00 p.m. to me. That looks like it's night time.
My Great Grandparents would be in trouble in today's world. They lived through the Great Depression and never trusted banks again. When they died (before my time) their children had to flip through all the books in the house where they would find random $100bills, or stacks of cash hidden in the weirdest places. They were furniture makers and some of the furniture they made for themselves had hidden panels, loaded with cash, jewelry, gold, etc.
Today if the government ran across someone like that they'd take it all, throw your ass in jail, and proclaim you guilty until proven innocent.
Civil asset forfeiture is a bitch
Dude sounds like your grandparents were massive money launderers that’s like what mobs do
@@justinisorange They made furniture and fabrics. They were not wealthy. They just saw too many people lose it all when a bank went under to ever trust them again.
You and I did not live through the Great Depression, so have very little understanding of how they must have felt.
@@justinisorange This is so ignorant.

This is when saul goodman was carrying 7 million dollars
Bravo, Vince!
This is the exact moment when Lalo becomes Mario Santos.
in real life , yes dont pull 7 million out of thin air unless you plan to skip town and never come back
Still can’t believe Saul is the Bay Harbor Butcher.
4:08 Typical Lalo. Love Tony the way he's playing Lalo maan. This character suits him well.
The moment Lolo became " Long gonman " ..
Even with how much of a bastard Lalo is he still holds a certain je ne sais quoi, he knows the game and he's smart on top of it.
Your client has 7 million dollars?
Me: Well... not anymore *points to money*
He WAS back in Mexico when they found out
That cashier sigh. I've done that myself a few times.
This show lacked a lot of conditions the legal system has. For a bail amount that high they'd first have to prove that full $7,000,000 didn't come from proceeds of a crime which is highly unlikely in this scenario.
the actress at 0:40 deserves more recognition tbh, that one look really just screamed the thought of "the system just failed horrifically, huh..."
Saul fucked up bad...he needed to take this money straight to the vacume store and buy the dust filter for a hoover pro max/extract
Imagine for a cruel joke, he paid in cents. XD
Hohey The Goose Man
Unlike many, I think this is the only time Lalo was being genuinely friendly to Jimmy. The funny thing is, given who he is, all those compliments can't help but feel like threats, even if they weren't
3:48 if you hear those words you’re cooked 💀
Imagine getting screen time of lalo and tuco together inside jail
