The move you should have made was taking Melanie under the train at the meet dummy
Oh Stfu Melanie, stoping lying about doing it for souls onboard. You doing all this because you like to be in charge.
Why was Ruth the bait lol. So a shovel didnt hurt by a air vent did
Omfg!!!!!!!! Why are you letting Wilfred go like hes not going to come back. Jesus Christ!!!
I’m down with this show. :v_tone3:
Did they just made two train and made it, Religion train and Science train :joy: lmao. Good to see we still can’t separate Church and State
Why not just stay on the train and do most research on the track to eden or find a way to scout that area by idk sending the sign cart that you just put that fuck face Wilfred in. Nothing makes logical sense just like i said from jump was to separate the trains even before a civil war was about to break out lol
And here we go Josie flip flop again and with Layton now lol so all she said before was pointless
So Wilfred is for sure going to switch tracks and head toward New Eden and start shit up again :man_facepalming_tone3:
Yo i didn’t realized if you turn the W pin around its M for Melanie. Nice touch
Hahahaha the way the Murder girl die was priceless and worth all the other dumb shit in the show. Im glad i got to see that. Best part of the episode. “Suck on that” pun intended
[9.0/10[ An incredibly tense hour of television. What's so impressive is that Better Call Saul accomplished this despite us knowing that, of course, Jimmy and Gus both survive. It comes down to such fantastic performances from everyone involved. You immediately buy how shaken and terrified Jimmy and Kim are, and how frightened even the normally steady Gus is at the point of Lalo's gun. Vince Gilligan's direction is outstanding, with a Hitchcockian flair for light and shadow that sets the foreboding mood of all these set pieces. And the score does the rest, helping the audience to feel the emotion of these scenes even if we rationally know the fates of several of those at the most risk.
My only mild beef is that Gus' survival feels like a bit of a cheat. It's still not clear to me why he did the gun in the superlab, and the dialogue kind of shrugs at the idea. Even in the dark, it seems like Lalo would have done better against Fring than he did. But details like Fring seeming to make one last desperate ploy to survive, still suffering wounds despite his body armor, and admitting he was over his skiis with this whole thing in the end helps make it passable. On a moment-to-moment basis, the scenes absolutely work, which covers for a lot.
What struck me the most is that closing image -- Howard and Lalo, two very different men, sharing the same fate and the same grave. It's a sign that the barrier between Jimmy's legal life and Saul's criminal life has been firmly shattered. Both lives, both worlds, are bound up in these deaths now, with the psychic weight hanging over Jimmy and Kim for the last five episodes. This never happened, but they, and Mike, will all still have to live with it. I can't wait to see how.
