Always keep an eye on Kai !!!!


At least they made the effort of making the Germans speak proper german....

Saw the last season of 12 Monkeys a few weeks back and when they had their go at "kill Hitler" it was beyond cringeworthy.

I’m a little behind, but the episode, Coushatta where they scam the court, I swear Jimmy is a bad influence on Kim, but it was her idea! :)
 
Guess Mike won't be doing a "half measure" next episode.

Pretty certain all the Germans will end buried in the desert after they finish the job.
 
Definitely Jim had corrupted the Purity of Kim's spirit of Law
Well she was in on scamming people at a hotel bar. It just surprises me a little that she’d take this chance with her career. She is more like Jimmy than she appears to be. You saw that big kiss she laid on him during that escapade. Cheating thrilled her. I’m hoping something bad does not happen to her by the end of the series.

I think Kim is either dead, in jail, or gone in some kind of witness protection program in the Breaking Bad timeline. Although I really like her character and don't want anything bad to happen to her, for the sake of an exciting story, I hope it's one of the former two: dead or jail.

I can totally see it: Kim and Jimmy escalate the shenanigans, someone ends up dead, Kim takes the fall or is the one that happens to be caught red handed, ends up taking a plea for a life sentence. Or, Kim and Jimmy escalate the shenanigans somehow Mike is involved, violence happens, Kim is dead.

For my benefit does anyone know what is being built? I assume it’s an illegal drug production and/or storage facility.

I can see her death as something that makes him break bad.

Did you not watch Breaking Bad? If so, do you care about Breaking Bad spoilers?

It's the Meth-Lab that Walter and Jesse used (will use) when they were (will be) working with the cartel&Gus.
Related to another character who appeared earlier and what's mentioned at https://screenrant.com/better-call-saul-gale-cameo-breaking-bad/
 
I started BB but then quit because I was not enjoying the main character’s self destructiveness. Spoilers are ok. :).
Ok in that case:

They're building a mega front for Guss' meth production operation. In BB, Guss had his chemist Gale cooking meth in a big professional fully-stocked lab. We met Gale in BCS recently. The lab was below a fully functional large laundry facility, with huge industrial size washers providing cover for chemicals, trucks, and vapors coming to and going from the building. There was a trap door in one of the machines. In BCS, we saw the big industrial washing machine next to where the architects were taking their measurements.

Well Slippin’ Jimmy ain’t exactly making good life choices himself.
This is more subtle with different chemistry. :) Walter White is a school teacher, diagnosed with a disease, quits or loses his job (I forget), gets offered a cushy job by a friend or his brother in-law (I forget :p), but instead decides to make meth. Maybe it was too abrupt for me. This is a slower transition, 3 seasons later and Jimmy McGill could still get his act together, kinda, even though we know that won’t happen. I was going to say Kim was a good influence, but lately I’ve given up on that. ;) And as I’ve said, Jimmy McGill has functioned more as a side plot in this story.

Yes, I an so concerned about the fate of Kim because i really liked her character and don't want to lose her until this show is running.

Rhea Seehorn's character's fate is one of the mysteries of Better Call Saul — unlike most of the other principals, Kim Wexler didn't appear in Breaking Bad, so we don't know what eventually happens to her. The same is true of Nacho Varga (Michael Mando). However, Rhea's/Kim's popularity may drive the storyline. The Breaking Bad showrunners were planning to kill off Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) until they saw how popular he was, so they kept the character going. I hope they do the same for Kim and Nacho.

The thing is I used to view her as the character who keeps pulling Jimmy back to the light. She no longer fulfills that roll, even despite saying cheating is ok for certain good causes.

In some cases, Kim's ends (getting Jimmy reinstated) justified the means (helping with the cemetery charade and the law library event). But others, like getting the Mesa Verde building plans changed by deception, were hardly altruistic. Kim liked the thrill and satisfaction of that scam for its sake.

In tonight's finale, though, she was the one who was scammed by Jimmy — I think that she believed that he was sincere talking about the letter and his relationship with Chuck. Kim was truly dismayed by Jimmy's jubilation at conning the board and saddened by his decision to legally change his name. I think we'll find out what happens to her in season five.

I just read an interview with Peter Gould and Bob Odenkirk in Variety. They hinted that we may see more of the post Breaking Bad timeline: "Maybe the man who started off as Slippin’ Jimmy and James McGill and Saul Goodman and Gene, maybe he still has a shot at redemption. If we can find a way to tell that story, I think it’s a worthwhile story to tell."
 
What a fantastic ending to a great season. Mike’s story was so sad but he did what he had to do. Seeing the moment Jimmy truly decides to be Saul, how great was that!

I watched the final and the shock on Kim’s face when Jimmy let her know how he played the Law Bar board. So the question is was this shock of dissapointment, or awe? ;)

I don’t think the German needed to die, Mike knew that, tried to convince his boss, but maybe he still managed to save the guy’s wife, maybe.

This may be a shock, but I read somewhere, did not keep the link, maybe I misunderstood, that this story may not mesh into Breaking Bad exactly as it should. What could that mean? Some kind of an alternate reality? Hope for Jimmy? Which does not matter to me as I bailed on BB. :D
