[pantherclub]

was the drug deal scene at the same place where Walt starts cooking meth under the Laundromat?

no, the dude said they had to drive awhile

 

[comfortably numb]

First pic of Jimmy as Saul? link

 

[Fariq]

Who is Trevor?

I think he means Nacho. Not sure he was watching earlier in the season. I still don't know for sure who he is writing about. He responded to me with a p rick type answer.

 

[shadrap]

Found this episode a little depressing. Still awesome but kind of sad in regards to Chuck. He is a ########.

 

[Apple Jack]

Any reason why this wouldnt be posted on the website yet?

I think we have to be fair to Chuck. He'd never seen Jimmy be anything but a f-up. Also, not exactly surprising that a lawyer like Chuck might look down on a degree from UAS. Finally, he has helped Jimmy out quite a bit in the past so it's not like he never did anything for him.

Not saying he couldn't have handled things better of course.

Yes regarding "handling it better".

I think what really made his reaction so ugly was the absolute disdain he had for Jimmy's schooling. While there may be a difference in prestige in law schools and some are way harder to get in to than others, the reality is that all lawyers take the same classes, pass the same bar, and, realistically, the lower level schools have much more stringent curves and are actually harder to get through than the elite schools (for example, it's waaaaay harder to get into Stanford or Yale than it is into Cooley, but it's waaaaaay harder to pass through Cooley with good grades than it is at Stanford or Yale).

In this situation, through sheer hard work Jimmy brought a case of substantial value to the firm and, arguably, bringing him on makes good business sense. Heck, give him an office, pay him a salary, and let him handle a pro bono indigent defense caseload or something. But in this case that option is blocked solely because his brother has absolute disdain for Jimmy's path which is absolutely conceded and indignant given that had Chuck thought about it for a moment he'd have realized just how hard Jimmy must have worked to get his license and just how hard he's working now. Total d-bag older brother move. And any argument he had that it's bad business to let Jimmy join the firm goes out the window.

Yep,

HHM didn't take Jimmy cause Chuck said the only way you get this case is if you cut Jimmy out.

If Chuck wanted Jimmy in, Jimmy would have had an office and got to work.

I dunno. Whatever he did for Jimmy was paid in full. Jimmy completely supported Chuck while he was going through his problems over several years and stood by him when he could have had him committed.

Chuck led his brother on and orchestrated his firm taking over the case and leaving Jimmy out in the cold. He knew how much this case was to Jimmy and how hard he was trying to do things right.

Chuck is a richard and now we know why Jimmy changes his name to Saul Goodman -- he wants nothing to do with his brother and I don't blame him.

[comfortably numb]

oh yea, best part of the episode is "space blanket liner"

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Mmmm...Pimento

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Did you see how long it took "man mountain" to run away from Mike. It's because he's really fat.

Come on now. You don't really believe this, do you? It is way easier to be towards the top of the bell curve when you are competing against other bottom tier law students than against other top tier law students.

I was sure that someone wasn't going to let that slip by.

 

[Thorn]

his brother has absolute disdain for Jimmy's path which is absolutely conceded and indignant

Conceded?

What, you don't think Yale or Stanford grads ever confuse words? YOU THINK THEY'RE BETTER THAN ME?

Shutup, Chuck.

Mike kinda rules.

So good.

Is that Icon?

 

[Ned Ryerson]

I think I've watched this clip 10 times already. Can banks just get his Emmy now?

 

[Autumn Wind]

Maybe all parking garages in ABQ look alike, but something about the view from the one Mike got his job in looked a little like the one Walter used in his aborted attempt to take down Gus Fring.

 

[imjackdupp]

was the drug deal scene at the same place where Walt starts cooking meth under the Laundromat?

I personally agree that it was. Sure they may have had to drive a while but so did Walter every time he went.

it's not even close.

 

[imjackdupp]

i could be wrong. I have been before, except for that one time. Wait I may be wrong about that.

And what I was thinking was the chicken plant not the laudromat.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

BB Laundry

BCS drug deal another

UNCANNY!

 

[urbanhack]

the laundry was right on a main street

Did you guys notice that Price was driving a Pontiac Aztek just like Walter White?

Shutup, Chuck.

At least the University of American Samoa law school hasn't been absorbed by the University of the South Pacific at Tonga.

I'm sorry. I just couldn't help but Chuck it up there.

 

[Capella]

The scene with Mike and the goons in the parking garage was incredible.

 

[Capella]

Whole show was great. GB Gilligan. Television genius.

What's not to get? A plump woman is drinking a gigantic tub of sugar. Not to mention that food and drink is generally not permitted in courtrooms.

sure it is. especially for court reporters.

 

[Ghost Rider]

"You can make it not as easy."

Best line uttered on the show so far.

Too good.

That goes for all lower courts in N.M. also from what I can tell. Maybe they make exceptions for Big Gulps.

I wonder if yoga pants are considered improper attire.

Only allowed if they have space blanket lining

 

[Slapdash]

I'm guessing we all saw it coming with chuck, at least by the phone scene, but holy crap I didn't see the brute, biting claim that jimmy isn't a real lawyer coming. Awesome tv.

How did YOU not see that coming? Heyooooooo

 

[Raider Nation]

Anyone else pick up that Mike's weiner client is played by K-Strass the Yo-Yo Guy?

Yeah it is pretty crazy that a court employee might actually have different rules than the general public.

Did you see the scene with Ed from Dragon's Lair and Joe from Pitfall?

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Did you see how long it took "man mountain" to run away from Mike. It's because he's really fat.

Yep. He probably had too many.... Ummm.... Too many... something with a lot of sugar.

That was awesome. The way they kept cutting between Ed debating whether or not to imbibe the "Drink Me" vial and Joe hopping across the swamp by jumping on alligator heads was TV genius.

BTW: Would you consider the guy that Mike took the gun from (and popped in the throat) metal or not? Forget the fact that he was in some sort of video game.

 

[Evilgrin 72]

Also, you may not have noticed, but during the parking lot scene, there was a square on the wall behind Mike that was played by the square you controlled in "Adventure."

He was about as metal as Nathan Lane in a bubble bath singing "It's Raining Men."
