Jimmy/Gene forcing Jeff to say “we’re done” is definitely a callback to Jeff forcing him to say the Saul line... but it’s also a reference to the last thing Walter White ever said to him. “We’re done when I say we’re done”

It was a very unique episode that actually tells us a lot about where Gene is at while also solving his issue with Jeff. I thought the scene at the end where he puts the very Slipping Jimmy like shirt back was very powerful and basically summed up the entire episode. I think it’s his first step of accepting who is he along with what he’s done in the past. There is also a sense that he is just so far beyond what Jeff could ever dream of being as far as being a criminal/con man.

The writers certainly get one over on us by making our suspicions of Jeff turn to dust. They must be laughing their heads off right now. Years of us seeing Jeff looking with intent at Gene in the rear view mirror (and inducing panic attacks in Gene by pressing him to reveal his true identity in the mall) were undone by revealing Jeff to be a gormless mummy’s boy. It was brilliantly done, and it demonstrated an eternal truth: fear of what might happen is always worse than what does happen.

While I loved the original actors unnerving and intimidating take, as soon as Gene had the upper hand when he was with Marion it didn’t really make sense for him to continue being the source of paranoia and anxiety as that was soon replaced by the stress of not getting caught within the scam.

Something I found interesting is that in all of the previous scenes where “Gene” walks from his cinnabon to the security room he always gives a small nod to the guy on the cleaning machine. Then the day of the heist the store manager called for “maintenance” to clean what was on the floor. And in the same walk Gene takes to the security room we don’t see the cleaning dude. I thought that was the reason the plan wasn’t going to work out, because maintenance would find the cab driver during his run. It had me tense throughout the whole scene lmao and the slip caught me off guard.

This epi seemed like "Jimmy" coming full circle.He was back in his element for possibly the last time we will see.He is like an aging athlete that takes one more swing to see if they still got it.

I've always thought that Jeff was either a red herring or flag. That he would either trigger something in Gene/Jimmy or that he would be effortlessly swiped away. Jimmy is a career criminal with decades of experience in manipulation. Not a lot of people can take him down without overwhelming force or immediate action. But it could trigger something in Jimmy. Either the need to get back in the game or the realization that his life's work is complete failure. He lost the girl, he lost his persona and as of now he lost a reason for going on besides pure reptilian survival. He's stuck under his own shadow and he'll never be free from it. How he deals with that will probably the focus of the last few episodes. From a purely existential outlook Saul is at a lower point than Walt ever was. He has no family to care for with his legacy/earnings and he has no partner to rescue.

Well put! Excellent analysis. I agree. At least Walt had the pretense of doing his bad deeds to provide for his wife & kid after he succumbed to cancer. And he was sympathetic due to being tragically screwed over by his former business partners. Ultimately Walt admitted to Skylar he kept doing it long after amassing more than enough money simply because he liked doing it and he was good at it. As was posted by Nash, Walt sacrificed himself in the end for those he loved - a form of redemption. What's Jimmy's rationalization for his embracing the criminal lawyer path? His big brother was mean to him? Nope. Not entirely. I do think if his brother supported him Jimmy had a chance at staying "clean." I think Jimmy became Saul because deep down he enjoys it and he's good at it. Period. I can't see Gene settling into a boring, solitary life of legal obscurity. How could he seek redemption? And does he even want redemption? I don't get the sense he does. He seems to be all about survival at any cost.

I think Marion walking in her kitchen, apparently with little inhibition, might be significant.

Casting Carol Burnett is telling too; she's a pretty big name for such a small role. I think Marion is a lioness who'll protect her cub - and Gene's scam may bring down her wrath.

You do the absolute best at revisiting my favorite shows. Excellent deep dive and I appreciate the effort. So pumped to see the final episodes and your breakdown considering the return of Kim, Walt, and Jesse. Cheers!

It’s amazing how much is already resolved with 3 episodes to go, and where the last two episodes could’ve been the last and that would’ve been fine. I’m glad we finally got an episode with Gene, even just the intro change is so simple but effective. It’s such a great show

My sense is that this is not the last of the Jeff/Gene/Marion storyline and the bad characters Jeff fell in with in ABQ and that we'll see just how important this episode is within the arc of the remaining episodes. Fantastic storytelling, brilliant cinematography and clever episode. Looking forward to the chat tonight.

@Alexander Kerensky that's what I figured too.. that he was totally bragging about it with these two imbeciles. and they TOTALLY know all about it. all things considered, how absolutely nutso is Walt's story when stepping back and really considering everything? ...I'm sure every major national news outlet (CNN, MSNBC, Fox, NPR, etc) have all been talking about it ad nauseum. The late night talk show hosts are all probably cracking jokes about it nightly. It's essentially another "True Crime" nationwide fascination. You know the routine. I like to imagine that in this world, Walt and Jesse are like... these mythic folk villains (or anti-heroes) that are capturing the imagination of the entire country, and here's their attorney who was not only along for the ride, but in some cases was even in the back seat of the same car (both literally and metaphorically speaking). He probably knows these two idiots have been glued to their tv's like everyone else, so he probably also figures that they're in "awe" of his presence. Realizing that they're getting criminal advice from a man who advised two of the biggest criminals in recent American history... and perhaps also realizing that he's a bigger celebrity than Sammy Hagar. I'm sure he's loving EVERYTHING about it too. Lil ol Slippin Jimmy from Cicero is an honest to god celebrity outlaw like Jesse James, and this is his first time actually feeling it, and allowing himself to love it. I get the sense that this feeling leads up all the way to the ending where he's looking at a shirt and tie that turn up the volume on Saul's wardrobe eve higher. As though Saul is somewhere inside saying, "You made it, man!!! Top of the world!!" SG really was here. when you think about all of that? where he started? how it all began? ripping off his ol man? "slippin jimmy" cons? his brother? the "sunroof?" the mail room? the land crabs? pro bono attorney? sandpiper? mike? nacho? the cartel? hector? gus? lalo? ...then one day walt walks into his office looking like DB cooper? connects with him, then connects him with gus... and helps to oversee and establish one of the biggest domestic drug kingpin operations in american history (not seen since the prohibition era). after all of that... here he is, devising a plan to rob a department store of some $100,000 worth of shoes and clothing. I mean... he knows he was the best. and even though this department store is small potatoes, he still gets his chance to remember who he was and still is in this episode.

Great job Pete. We can’t wait to see your analysis of each episode. You are the best. Jeff slipping was hilarious. His (realistically) slow recovery was perfect, but agonising. Buster Keaton would have been proud of that one.

In my opinion this episode was two things: a blue note and a bridge. The blue note in Jazz is the one that's played at a slightly different pitch from standard. This episode has a different pace and a different tone than the previous ones this season; it's a palate cleanser from the heaviness we've seen and brings comedic relief in an otherwise emotionally rich show. It's a also a bridge because it doesn't seem to add a lot to the story, which leaves the viewer nervous since we know there are only three episodes left. It feels like the writers know what they're doing, so this episode (with the introduction of Marion, the new player) has to be a "bridge" that links the story to its ending. And the beauty of watching a show while it's being released, is that you have time to focus on the details and have time to discuss at length an installment like "Nippy", which would otherwise be looked over. Conclusion: I don't know what they have in store for us, but I'm very excited.

It's interesting how the previous episodes are shot in color but are extremely grim. In contrast this episode doesn't really evoke the same depressing/paranoid feelings we've been used to with the other Gene flashforwards: it feels more like an episode from the first or second season. I might be wrong, but I feel like this episode's purpose is to let Jimmy come back and to let us see that he has decided to leave Saul behind. After all in the opening we've seen the tape record over the old Saulesque footage and in the end we see Gene figuratively hang Saul on the rack. So excited to see next week's episode!

man there's nobody else I'd rather watch to recap and review a BCS episode, great videos dude

I can't wait to see the further entanglement of Gene, Marion, and Jeffy. Will that relationship be Gene's undoing? Will Gene be theirs? All of the above? It's WAY too much character development to drop in for one episode and then leave it - particularly with the "Albuquerque" reference. I think it's the beginning of the end, and this episode lit the fuse for the final blast...

True. We knew that 'Jeffy' had a life in ABQ, but we don't know whether Marion was with him or not. If she was, there's no way she doesn't know who Saul is with all his elderly history and TV commercials specifically targeting the elderly community.

The most tension for me was in Frank using the knife and fork against the plate, the anticipation of a potential screech or scrape drove me loopy.

Great review of the episode. Your interpretation makes the story more clear. Thank you!

I love the fact that we can never second guess where the next episode of BCS will go. Loved this episode, I love that PG/VG can say so much about a character in so many subtle ways.

I don’t want anything else, nothing else compares to the high standard of writing/filming/character development. I feel that Jimmy is GOOD.

Will Marion be the character who puts it all together and ultimately brings down Gene/Saul? She is like the police chief character in the movie Fargo: a solid, no-nonsense Midwestern woman of Nordic descent who believes strongly in right and wrong and just plods along, collecting all the facts and finally putting it all together to catch the bad guys. Remember that she used to live in Albequerque and at some point will remember seeing the DEA's Saul Goodman Wanted Poster and make the connection to Gene. She goes to the cops/DEA and gets the million dollar reward for Saul, but then loses her two sons who get arrested as his accomplices for the department store caper in a bittersweet twist of ironic fate.

Felt like the death of Saul Goodman at the end of the episode, hanging up the suit, and the potential return of Jimmy. The final acknowledgement of Chuck was a big moment. I feel like it was genuine, if used for disingenuous reasons, as we've seen Jimmy only be able to face his emotions whilst scamming before. I think the reason we had this episode now is A) a welcome change of pace and B) to drive home that although plot wise we may go back in time, narratively we are most certainly in the epilogue now.

Gene grabbed the Saul costume off the rack and smiled at old memories. But Jim McGill put it back, because the Saul chapter is closed for good. While living as Gene, Jim McGill has had time to reflect. Life as Gene was the result of fear - fear of jail or worse. Jimmy has lived it, and learned it's no life at all. Life as BB Saul was the result of trauma. Jimmy has lived it, and learned that crime can come with a high cost. Jim McGill spent a brief time somewhere between Slippin' Jimmy and Saul and life was good. In large part because of Kim, sure. Jimmy knows he needs to find a Golidlock's life - somewhere between the mundane lows of cycling through 3 pairs of khakies and the fast lane highs of gangster life. Stay tuned, there are 3 episodes left.
