PrayodiBA 517 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Woww, that was a really satisfying ending! It think it may very well appease all spectrums of the fans. l love how the three main players of BB got their own “rightful” ending. Walter, being the evil mastermind, got the ending by being dead after having massacred people. Jesse, being “the victim”, finally got his peace and solitude. And Saul, finally belongs to his own world. Even he is welcomed like a king! ( I love the “better call Saul” chant). Even when he got caught, he will never change (like repeatedly alluded with the “time machine” analogy in this episode) He is finally “rested” Congratulation!

Damien F 1,742 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Really liked that. Can't necessarily say I *enjoyed* it because it was quite a heavy episode especially with bringing back Marie which was a lovely surprise actually. But I certainly appreciated where Jimmy and Kim ended up. I liked that Kim came out of her shell and dipped her feet back into the legal world. Possibly the first step to becoming a lawyer again. I'm a little confused as to whether she is still vulnerable to a civil suit from Howard's widow? Vince and Peter have often said that the Breaking Bad universe often involves facing the consequences of your actions so prison is the most appropriate place for Jimmy. Tracking his character journey through BCS definitely makes him a tragic character. He came quite close to having a good elder law practice and spending his life with Kim which would have been a very nice life indeed compared to where he ended up. The only complaint is I would have liked to have seen more of Jimmy's decision making process on the plane to confess to everything. Nothing flashy, perhaps just an extended close up on Bob's face and let his facial expressions do the work, maybe also intercut with a flashback to Kim and Jimmy at some point to provide further context. Having a quick look on social media, some people are saying they disliked it. I suspect people who expected fireworks similar to Felina will be disappointed. The show is different and the second half of this season was never headed in that direction. In fact, you could argue that the episode where Kim and Jimmy break up is the finale to BCS, and the remaining episodes is a coda to the entire BCS / BrBa universe.

Holko 9,519 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I didn't feel Jimmy feeling any remorse and coming to terms with the deaths and what he did, he just quickly confessed them so Kim would like him again, whatever the cost.

SpaceCoyote 150 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I think that Jimmy's breakthrough was genuine, and Bob seems to feel the same (haven't read or listened to anything from Peter just yet, but I assume he does too). However, I love that the finale left so much of Jimmy's thoughts and motivations up for debate, so that death of the author people have plenty to argue over and chew on for years to come. I'm sure I'll have more to say over time, but one thing I found interesting is the use of The Time Machine in not just this episode, but the season as a whole. It first showed up in Saul’s mansion in the season premiere, and later on Jimmy's nightstand. My reading is that, between the three appearances and the discussions with Mike and Walt, Jimmy's subconscious tried to get through to him for a decade through that book. His brain kept posing that question to him not for others, but for himself, in attempts to spur his long overdue breakthrough. I don't think it's unintentional that its first chronological appearance is with Chuck in Jimmy's presence. I also love the dark joke that Jimmy decides to abandon the Saul Goodman name and reclaim "Jimmy McGill," but will spend the rest of his life surrounded by people who exclusively know him as, and call him, Saul. Once again, I think the extent to which this bothers him is up for debate (along with his overall enjoyment level in prison). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,346 Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 Better Call Saul 6x13 Saul Gone I really liked the flashbacks, they were not only good little mini-scenes but combined to inform everything going on in the final narrative. In Mike's, it was interesting for him to initially say he'd go back to prevent his son's death, before realizing he really needed to go back to his first bribe, since his corruption is what's responsible for his son's death. Jimmy is not close to ready to be able to process any of his own past choices at this point. In Walt's, it was great that he immediately realized Jimmy wasn't really asking about Time Travel, but regrets. And of course Walt's only regret is that he didn't become a millionaire sooner - LOL. Jimmy isn't ready to answer honestly yet either, though I think Walt's summation that he was "always this way" had an effect on him. It's intersting to think that following this scene, Walt would spend 6 months alone in New Hampshire and eventually return to Albuquerque and finally admit to Skyler that everything he did was because he liked it. And Jimmy would spend 9 months in Omaha and eventually return to Albuquerque and finally admit to an entire courtroom that he was nobody's victim, and made all his choices himself. In Chuck's, it was just kinda thrilling to see the early Chuck/Jimmy dynamic again, before Jimmy's real animosity towards Chuck started growing. But of course the big takeaway is Chuck telling Jimmy there is no shame in changing his course, which is of course what he finally does at the end of the episode. I thought the sequence that got us from Jimmy leaving Marion's house and finally getting caught was poorly staged and just kinda clunky and weird. The Omaha police were immediately on him like white on rice and I really feel like he would have had tons of time to safely escape them in time. On top of that, as soon as he was in the dumpster and left the band-aid tin open I knew those diamonds were gonna spill everywhere so that was a rare interseting of them setting something up super predictably. But once he was in custody, from then to the end of the episode was really really good. I loved that he was able to use his legal mind one final time to negotiate a life + 190 years sentence down to just seven years, and I loved that he used Oakley to assist with this, nicely setup two episodes prior by showing that he had switched from prosecution to defense. And I loved that when he found out Kim admitted to her role in everything, he finally realized he had to admit to himself, to her, and to the legal system that he was responsible as well. Across both shows and the movie, there isn't that much romance involved, but somehow this gesture from Jimmy is the most romantic thing we've seen happen in this world. I loved that once he's in Federal prison for 86 years, he's like a mini-hero to the people there for his 6 years he was Saul Goodman in Albuquerque, and the fact that Kim found a way to get in there and share a cigarette with him was a great ending. Especially when he gave her the finger guns outside and she didn't return them. Brilliant ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony 572 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Need to process before any longer comments, but that was certainly the best of the post-BB timeline episodes. There wasn't really anything I disliked about this one. It was fine. Neat seeing Marie and Chuck again. The flashbacks didn't feel cheap and fan-servicey like they did the last couple of weeks. It felt like the show was back in it's groove. But I still think I'll skip these final 3 on rewatch. 6.09 was a better ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,346 Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 Jimmy finally admitting to himself that he chose to do everything instead of stuffing all his emotions down is a way better ending than hanging up a shirt after 1 scam.

Anthony 572 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Yes...but only if you watch 6.11 and 6.12 as well...which I don't want to. Make Nippy 6.01 and swap the two mansion scenes around. End with Kim and Jimmy breaking up, and seeing the end of the Saul era as his house is cleared. That answers the question of "Why did this man become Saul Goodman?", and then you can go straight into Breaking Bad. Edit: Volume 3 of the score also came out today. Woohoo!

I took that to mean that as soon as they located his car and house they were able to track him through the CCTV. The idea of them doing that in real-time is admittedly a bit far-fetched, especially for 2010, but not completely unbelievable. Great finale. I’d say better than BB, and in many ways righted some of the moral “wrongs” of that finale (like Walt going out almost heroically) - I was relieved but not surprised that the show far more concerned with legal drama and consequences ultimately ended with a courtroom and justice being done.

Popular Post crocodile 8,000 Posted August 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2022 18 hours ago, Jay said: He always comes across like a really great guy. It's funny because Saul/Jimmy is so full of himself that I almost get taken aback by the extraordinary humility and class of Bob Odenkirk. He should be immensely proud as the series is a wonderful achievement. It is probably the greatest compliment to a prequel when you don't even think of it as such. When the first season started I was still in the mindset of "connecting dots and references" and wasn't sure what it was supposed to be in relation to Breaking Bad. It was a straight up prequel for me at that point. But the writting and execution made me watch it regardless. Eventually, once I realised this is supposed to be its own creature, I fell in love with the series. I do enjoy the references to BB but they are only a bonus for me, a fun easter egg, and not the main course. I love BCS entirely on its own terms and for its original material. I see some people not being happy about the time jump and the lack of clearer transition from Jimmy to Saul. While I am able to understand this to certain extent, this is actually good. I myself get everything to is from the remainder of the show to piece together the full picture. As Nicholas Meyer once said, art thrives on things being left out and/or unsaid. I do find a story to explains itself constantly exceptionally boring. I want to participate and have some bit to do as an audience. Not necessarily in terms of plot puzzles, although that can also work, but more in terms of characterisation and ambiguity. It's cool when you can fill in some of the gaps with your own ideas and it feels very rewarding to be a part of it and see what other people around the world come up with based on their experiences and backgrounds. This is the greatest thing about art. Thanks to Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould I feel treated like an adult.

Not much to add to what's already been said, just that I loved all the little touches, callbacks, and Easter eggs that seemed to be littered throughout the episode. One in particular: when Jimmy was finally coming clean in the courtroom, upon mention of his brother Chuck, the camera shot immediately cut to the EXIT sign, buzzing with electricity, a callback to the final shot of "Chicanery."

Jay 37,346 Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 Better Call Saul began airing in 2015 when Rhea Seehorn was 42, and I think the character was meant to also be 42. Since the first episode took place in 2002 and the last we saw Kim was saying goodbye to Jimmy at the jail in early 2011 (when the character would be 51, say), and Seehorn is 50 now, she's naturally aged into the age the character would be in a post-BB, post-BCS world.

It completely breaks the rhythm of the season, even more so since 5 ends with a cliffhanger. It makes so much more sense to make it chronological and have it after 6.09 since that's where the Jimmy timeline ends therefore it's logical to go to the Gene timeline after that, especially since 6.11,12,13 directly follows 6.10 which makes it way less confusing for the viewer instead of jumping around. I wouldn't put Breaking Bad again either, it would be too frustrating for a new viewer to watch the show twice before he can continue Better Call Saul. If it has to be re-watched I would put it after the Gene timeline since episodes 11 to 13 bring a new understanding of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
