The Official "Better Call Saul" Season 6 Thread (Final Season)

[Cattle Mutilation]

The look of horror on jimmy and Kim's face was some good ass acting. It felt like some horror movie where they seen death.

Their reaction to the execution alone deserves awards.

Kim knew Lalo was alive. Wonder how Jimmy gonna take it.

For Mike and his team not to catch on to Lqlo when he was by the laundromat is un Mike like.



How Howard died was to cliche.

 

[mson]

Howard was dead once Lalo stepped foot in that house.

He would've been alive had he left by the second warning.

I had been a little sour on the Jimmy/Kim plot, but I think I am OK with it now that it clicks with me that they really thought Howard would come out fine from it all. He didn't deserve any of it which kind of bugged me, but knowing that their intention wasn't actually to completely ruin him I guess it doesn't bother me like it had.

That being said........OOPS

Sucks for Howard and he definitely didn't deserve it. Wrong place, wrong time. But now I'm curious to see how they continue that in the second half. I wouldn't be surprised to see Kim's storyline ending in the first or latest second episode back from break. Lalo has both Saul and Kim where he wants them. I think he's going to ask them about Nacho and his whereabouts. Don't remember if he knew that Nacho was dead cuz he couldn't have heard it from Hector. Or maybe he brings up something else but he scares the hell out of Saul and Kim. Now the conflicting part is if Kim gets killed cuz of Jimmy or she disappears which I think is the likely scenario. I think that Saul gives Lalo false information and that gets Lalo out of there. They then call Mike to do what he can with Howard's body. Kim thinking it was all legal matters, gets spooked and thinks they in too much danger and thats when the process to get her to disappear starts. Lalo likely thinks that Saul had a part in the attack on the Salamanca compound and that is what causes Saul to be scared of him all the way thru BB. Saul likely tries to convince him that he was not involved and Lalo says if he finds out that's not true that he'll come back for him. Maybe Lalo strikes her or Jimmy and they go visit the doctor that had the vacuum guys contact info. Thinking that Kim wants them both to run and Saul disagrees and that severs their relationship.


I enjoyed the Talking Saul episode at the end too. Wonder if that'll be a weekly thing in second half. Hopefully it is. I believe BB had it the entire final season. Actually looked to be entire second half so hoping BCS does the same.

I think Lalo is going to interrogate Jimmy & Kim possibly if they knew about the set up with Nacho and any information about Gus. Or Lalo is going to use Jimmy to find proof about Gus which gives the clear for the Salamanca family to kill Gus. I do not think it was never Lalo intent to kill Gus intentionally, especially since Gus is essentially a made man, but if he can prove that Gus was behind it all, this will give the green light fir the family to kill him the same way they did with Nacho. So, it got to be either to get information from them which I doubt, or wanting them to get information for him which is more likely. Either way, I do think that Mike was watching them and may even interrupt everything. We know that most of security is all at Gus' house, but Mike isn't going to completely relieve the other "hot spots", especially when all this season so far, he stressed the necessity with it.

Nevertheless, Mike is going to do handle the Howard situation the same way he did when we first introduced to Mike in the BB universe.



Kim is definitely going to order the vacuum deal. I think that's going to be the deal for her safety, to where not even Jimmy knows where she's at. Jimmy then is going to be full-time Saul thereafter with the lingering assumption that Lalo will come back for him. So, whatever information they give Lalo or down the line, they know it's bullshyt that'll be given and it'll leave with them paranoid. I think it'll be the latter where Mike use it to set up Lalo and Lalo learns about it and attempt to retaliate but Mike be one step ahead this time.

 

[TheDarceKnight]

And they'll either make his body disappear or throw him in a rough part of town to make it look like he died in a drug deal gone bad

No doubt. That or a suicide. Both of which add even more insult to injury, damage Howard’s legacy even in death, and further irredeemably fukk up jimmy and Kim

I like where your head is at on this stuff but I think Kim stays until the end. I just don’t see them running 4 episodes without her. If for no other reason than Saul is the main character and she’s such a huge part of everything he is, and everything he becomes. I think they’ll take at least one or two episodes to show how she processes and deals with what just happened.

Crazy that she’s basically more gone than Jimmy is. Also, Her reaction to Howard getting clipped was amazing acting

 

[OJ Simpsom]

Now that Hamlin, Hamlin and McGill are all dead, what do they call the law firm??

 

[iseetrolledpeople]

I hope some hackers leak the rest of the season lol

Amen to that!

Kim did try to get Howard to go several times.

Nah breh. Lalo was itching to kill somebody to prove a point to Saul. Either Howard or Kim.

 

[jwinfield]

Kim did try to get Howard to go several times.

Kim was the reason he was even there

Howard was dead once Lalo stepped foot in that house.

He would've been alive had he left by the second warning.

No way the higher up in a cartel that's a fugitive was going to let anyone just walk out that place.

I had been a little sour on the Jimmy/Kim plot, but I think I am OK with it now that it clicks with me that they really thought Howard would come out fine from it all. He didn't deserve any of it which kind of bugged me, but knowing that their intention wasn't actually to completely ruin him I guess it doesn't bother me like it had.

That being said........OOPS

I'm not buying that Kim and Jimmy did all that thinking that Howard would come out on the other side fine.

A highly respected legacy lawyer being outed as having a drug problem which significantly affected his ability to handle a case, including thinking guys were sneaking into his office and accusing respected former judges of taking bribes in the middle of mediation and throwing hookers out of his car on a major street in the middle of the day isn't something that just goes away.

We saw how quickly word spread about Jimmy's dealings with the cartel which led to everyone, from the receptionists to other attorneys hitting Jimmy with the

 

[FaTaL]

Saul gotta end up in prison when it’s over. If he dies…

He’ll get caught then he’ll defend himself as Saul Goodman for one last hurrah.

 

[FaTaL]

he'll be in a barrel like Victor

There's a reddit theory that Gus kills Howard with the gun he stashed in the lab and buries him in concrete in the south wall. id call bullshyt but the same reddit dikkhead said Howard would go to Jimmy/Kim and get smoked by Lalo so

Link?

True that but another factor I'm considering is how far into the BB timeline we are, or if we're even that far in. I know that Tuco was in prison and in the beginning of BB he was out. Plus what has been happening with Krazy 8? Don't think we've seen him so far this season. Will there be more on the Salamancas the remaining episodes? They said that Walt and Jesse make an appearance. Wonder if thats a few episode story arc or something in the finale. I believe the lab was fully operational when Walt met Gus but not sure if it was being fully used yet. With Kim it's a matter of how much time was between when she left and when Saul met Walt and Jesse. Unless she was still there behind the scenes and left after. They also have the Gene aspect. Are we ending with a Gene scene or not? All depends on how much they want to portray these last six episodes. I'm thinking it runs up into the BB timeline and Walt and Jesse are there but not fully into BB. Meaning like when Jesse was messing with Krazy 8 and the Asian guy at the very beginning of BB. So who knows what goes on with Kim, Lalo, and all the BCS characters in that time.

That’s a lot going on, I think they end the series with gene and the rebirth of Saul defending himself in Albuquerque. They got 6 episodes left, they gotta end Kim/Lalos stories in the first 3 episodes
