I loved this little golden age where we were all vying for a McGill Legal Team-Up (Jimmy included). It was sweet moments like this that made it so much worse later on…
Right? I was rewatching Season 1 last week and that hug that Jimmy gave Chuck after he agrees to help him with the case is so bittersweet now knowing that Chuck liked the case but not working with slippin Jimmy with a law degree
Chuck helped jimmy out if prison only to feel superior and see him squirm. Chuck knew that jimmy was desperate and he wanted to feel his exceptionally charismatic brother squirm before him.
@@JESUSLIVESAMEN Although I think Chuck was sincerely proud of Jimmy for maintaining his mailroom job and being a hard worker. Just when he decided to follow in his footsteps he couldn’t stomach.
I see it as his condition disappeared for a brief moment because he was too distracted. Him going to get the code books was fully auto-pilot. Thus, showing Jimmy, that Chuck's "Condition" was all in his head.
@@MrErizid Thats probably it. Everyother commenter is saying how Chuck's disease disappeared b/c he and jimmy were getting along, and chuck was working with him and respecting him. But he never respected Jimmy. He saw Jimmy becoming a lawyer as a mockery and a part of a longterm con job.
@@MrErizid Chuck's "condition" is a physical manifestation of his hatred for Jimmy. In this scene he doesn't hate Jimmy for a brief moment because he's enjoying working with him.
Agreed, when you see the final episode flashback, Chuck briefly considers that he was wrong about Jimmy and genuinely wants to help him become a better lawyer, and he was probably proud when Jimmy went to all these lengths to help the elders. I would bet that once he realized his illness wasn’t real in this scene he panicked and blocked Jimmy in the next episode because he refused to acknowledge it.
Man.. it's nice seeing these two play nice and work together. If Chuck wasn't so prideful and malicious towards Jimmy perhaps they could have been an effective team.
They could never be an effective team, as Jimmy at no point showed himself remotely worthy of Chuck's trust. Chuck was never spiteful, nor prideful. Those things only exists inside the heads of the anti-Chuck freakshows.
Imagine being so engrossed in a task that you love or are just so good at doing that you forget everything else. It is like a finger pointing at the moon.... I live for those moments.
Recently I was so engrossed in painting, that I had no cognisance of what my foot was doing, and that I had been very vigourously massaging, swirling, patting, rolling around a large spider with the ball of my foot. Poor little guy.
Adderall/other ADHD medications make you do this, but for everything. and it's not because you love doing them, it's because they zombify you. you don't feel much of anything emotionally while under their influence.
It’s just sad that for this one moment, Chuck was happy and proud of the work he and Jimmy were doing. The one time he was free of his pride, grudge and hate. He could have had more of this if he chose to but he didn’t.
@@nikolairostov3326 He paid for his law school by slip n fall scams as admitted by him in the series final but it was hinted at in Season 1 when people asked where he got the money for law school he said not to worry about it and even as early as Season 1 he tried to trick the Kettleman's into being his lawyer by black mail (which almost got him an early grave in the desert) and his billboard that could have ended in him and another falling to their death. Chuck's hate of slippin Jimmy was part because he was worried Jimmy would end himself or someone else.
At first I thought that Chuck being nice in that flashback was a bit forced, but rewatching I realized that from the beginning of the show, there was a part of Chuck that loved, cared, and enjoyed Jimmy's presence in his life But his envy took the better of him
I think he saw how hard Jimmy was working to take care of him, and he felt guilty believing he couldn’t change. Then he tried to reach out to him, maybe even help him with his clients. But by then the damage had been done…
Reading this comment my brain kinda did its own thing for a moment and created a scenario in which Chuck was resentful towards Jimmy because he could never beat him at Smash Bros
Best comment. I vividly remember being 4 years old and talking a walk in a specific forest by the kindergarden as one of the first times I properly 'gained' consciousness
That one small moment where the two of them just working on a case as brothers is just touching for me. They were few steps away from a bright and happy ending where they both live a fulfilling life having each other's back as a family.
No different. It was a family issue and both had fault, but the psychosis of Chuck SEEMS to be largely his responsibility. That doesn't mean Jimmy can't help Chuck with his problems.
Chuck is one of the most accurate depictions of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder I've ever seen on TV. He was distracted and heavily invested in important tasks, and he registered that what he needed was in the car... so because he was so engaged and engrossed in his work, his obsession (electricity) was out of his mind for a moment... at least until he snapped back to where he was and what he was doing, and realized what he had done.
It’s also a fascinating glimpse into the working of his analytical legal mind, that he can just ‘autopilot’ when he’s deep in thought and thus disregard otherwise typically stressful scenarios _and_ revert to normalcy. Must have been a hell of a lawyer at his peak!
The fact that it looks like Jimmy and Chuck's relationship is actually going well at first makes me sad. Two brothers, two lawyers, working together. If only Chuck wasn't so prideful, spiteful, and insecure about his self-worth. If Chuck truly took Jimmy under his wing, he could still remain the 'superior' brother by being the one to help lead Jimmy to success- and he could then internally see all of Jimmy's successes as his own, keeping his weird desire to remain above Jimmy while not destroying their relationship. Alas, it was not meant to be...
When I first started watching Better Call Saul, I assumed Chuck would be Jimmy’s moral compass, and that him dying would be the reason Jimmy becomes Saul (it still kind of was, but what I thought was that without Chuck , Jimmy would have no one to hold him down when he started doing questionable things), instead Chuck is one of the main reasons he becomes Saul
Anxiety is almost exactly like this. You can get so engrossed in something fun you’re doing and then all of a sudden remover that you have anxiety and panic. It’s pretty sad really.
Going back and watching the first season is actually really sad. The whole time they made it seem like Jimmy and Chuck were a great team of brothers. But we soon learned that was not the case. It was a fantastic twist for narrative and character development, but still heartbreaking.
Probably mostly for dramatic effect. So we as the audiance can visually see how dark the house is by only being lit up by lanterns, to emphasis Chucks condition. If it was bright because the windows were open it may make the house look to normal lol
When Chuck is working with Jimmy and treat him like a peer he doesn't experience the delusions. His "condition" is a subconscious reaction to his wishes to keep Jimmy down, forcing Jimmy to give up his career to be his caretaker.
@@deybal he also knew from the beginning that Chuck gets worse every time.jimmy conned or did something bad so he already had an idea that the symptoms carried back to him
If it was a form of physcosis, couldn’t Jimmy tell some doctors to give Chuck some placebos and tell chuck, “take this every 2 weeks to stop the ehs problem”
No since his “illness” as the nurse had described was something deeper, meaning more towards he can’t stand Jimmy being a lawyer (except this brief moment) and hating Jimmy is the underlying cause.
@@bl5533 why quotation marks... He probably had severe OCD, which is an illness. His brains are physically materially different just like when you have heart defect. Its just more complex and there is no cure except to try to slooooowly try to remap your brain through life, therapy and maybe little bit of SSRIs. People use language like you now did out of ignorance or due to the fact that modern biology doesnt even understand much of human brain, its too complex. We know maybe few percent of how human biology works and brain is the most complicated organ. Contributing to the culture where mental illnesses are brushed aside as "delusions", "between ears" even though they are no different from cancers, coronary heart diseases etc..
Denial and pride. Chuck wants to be superior to Jimmy, so being called crazy is the last thing he wants. You can see it best when his "mental condition" is mentioned in Chicanery and has a breakdown in front of everyone.
what does that even mean? HIs illness like all illnesses are physical, in his case brain was affected, which in turn affected his behavior and thus individual psychology, which is study of individual behavior. But the disease was not psychological. It was physical relating to brain, an organ just like cancer or eczema.
@@CyclismHS he wasnt insane. He was able to cope and reason well except with this one aspect of life hindering him. He was not psychotic and had good grasp of reality. So no he wasnt insane (delirious, psychotic etc..) at all.
Every other time Chuck's condition disappeared it was because he was putting Jimmy down. Just this once, when they're happily working together did it also go away.
damn rewatching this really makes me believe that if chuck could’ve let go of his insane distaste for jimmy, using this sandpiper case, he would’ve bounced back. the whole tom sawyer “paint the fence” technique jimmy was putting chuck through with all the legal stuff, was really helping. sometimes you just need to be useful and thats what chuck knew. and he even admitted to it working. jimmy and chuck on the case. it would’ve been perfect. but when I saw chuck bailing jimmy out after his whole chicago sunroof debacle, I completely understood where chuck saw jimmy and where he will always see jimmy. doesnt talk to anyone for 5 years and the moment he’s up to his neck in some BS he orchestrated, he ran and cried home to mommy who got big brother chuck to save the day. and worst yet, jimmy tried to run the game on chuck by playing the whole “woe is me, I’ll do better, I’ll change” card. chuck saw right through it. and every time jimmy came to him with that same song and dance throughout the series, that deadpan “he’s full of it” look would come on. because that’s who jimmy ever will be to him. anything “change” is just another get rich quick scheme that always ends up blowing up and hurting everyone involved. but does he get in trouble? does he ever face the consequences of his actions? no, not jimmy. not our precious jimmy. because jimmy was able to charm his way out of anything, he thinks he can get away with everything. thats chuck. and he ended up being right on the money about saul. nobody wanted to believe because they had hope jimmy could pull it off in the end. but in the end, it was exactly as chuck envisioned, saul gone and behind bars.
And then Chuck made a full recovery, Jimmy made partner, and a clueless teacher with no guidance got shot by the cartel. Everyone lived happily ever after...
This episode gave me hope these two could work together. I know how this will end, I know where Jimmy ends up. But I hoped they could have worked together and be a family.
Jimmy is bad guy only because Chuck took all the credit without acknowledging Jimmy was not respected at the professional level, which is a bias, but at least if Chuck wants to play a big boss, Chuck should take Jimmy under his wings instead of just sending him out there doing all the dirty work
@@MajicMarco Jimmy can be executed for who he is. But if the law of Chuck does not punish past wrongs without a sentencing, Chuck should look at Jimmy as today, instead of secretly prolonging his punishment
@@MajicMarco I would counter jimmy has his flaws but is not a bad guy and has a hart his shadow personality that is Saul on the other hand is a very bad guy though for sure.
@@Onmysheet well don’t forget before this when Chuck ended up in the hospital for getting tased by the cops because he stole his neighbor’s newspaper, the physician demonstrated to Jimmy that Chuck’s condition was psychosomatic
Not only was Chuck enjoying working with Jimmy so much he didn't notice even going outside, but his brotherly instincts kicked in once he saw Jimmy dozing on the couch - once he saw Jimmy was actually physically exhausted from working, Chuck didn't want to bother him further.
chuck, being in a good mood, goes outside to help carry a box from jimmy’s car. before this scene, chuck had been very careful of going outside due to his mental illness (that he believes is real) that causes him to feel pain from electricity, as the outside world is “filled with currents”. when jimmy realizes chuck goes outside and sees him, chuck realizes what had happened and goes into shock.
Chuck cant even go outside and he gets to be a lawyer? What a sick joke!
Lol I heard this in chuck's voice.
Chicanery!
Yes
I should have stopped him when I had the chance
Chuck with a mental ilness I can handle just fine, but Chuck who can go outside is like a chimp with a machine gun!
the one time he didn’t notice his illness was when he was content with jimmy and working w him :(
The only illness he had was mental
'illness'
I noticed this as well. His condition began as soon as jimmy became a lawyer and it only truly went away in this scene.

@@TeaInTheMorning-we2kh not much to think, it's just the first thing that comes to mind.
I would have been like Chuck look where you are, and what you just did, who's the man.
Imagine if this was how he died
i was always curious on what the outside of chucks house looked liked. the size, style and such.
He finally can touch grass
I wouldn't have said anything. I would've looked out the window and got back to napping before he made it back inside the house.
Alternate ending : ……… I’m Cured!
Chuck has a lot in common with reddit users, discord mods, LoL players and weebs, the outside hurts them.
HE DEFECATED THROUGH A SUN ROOF
Are you telling me the code sections just happened to be left outside like that? No! He orchestrated it! Jimmy!
This is the exact moment Chuck became the space blanket 😵💫💫💫
"Abd this, this chicanery? He's done worse".😅😢
see how his demeanor changes as soon as he sees jimmy, chuck's "illness" is just a manifestation of his hatred towards jimmy.
just shows its actual mental illness like a panic disorder
Chuck's real problem was his massive ego and seething resentment.
“Ya got me !”
Id love to send this to someone without context
Reddit user nightmare:
If they just kept like this and gone to therapy bet could be awesome lawyer team
I honestly thought he was faking the illness.
this isn't when!? when!?!?!
What chicanery
Most normal reddit user :
I don’t get this scene can somebody please explain !
chuck, being in a good mood, goes outside to help carry a box from jimmy’s car. before this scene, chuck had been very careful of going outside due to his mental illness (that he believes is real) that causes him to feel pain from electricity, as the outside world is “filled with currents”. when jimmy realizes chuck goes outside and sees him, chuck realizes what had happened and goes into shock.
i suppose he can't go outside in sun, you see its always dark in his house, he suffers from electro magnetic sensitivity lol
"Unwittingly" makes it sound like he was forced.
I think a better title would be "Chuck gets caught faking his illness".
That doesn't work as Chuck genuinely believes he's sick.
"Unwittingly" works just fine.
He forgor
