I'm pretty excited for tonight... the episodes setting the scene for Gene & Jeffey were tough to get through, but I thought last week's with Kim picked up some steam.
Now that the authorities are clued in to Saul being in Omaha, I can't wait to see where tonight takes us.
I'll be sorry it's over, but I'm quite pleased so far w/ how this final season has played out. I'll be surprised if the finale is underwhelming... anything is possible, but they've done such a great job wrapping up the Nacho, Howard and Lalo storylines, I'll be surprised if tonight falls short.
Kind of impossible for Jimmy to continue to hide now that he has been exposed. I know we got a snip of him contacting the vacuum guy but I'm not sure if that was Gene contacting him for the second time or if it was a snip of Saul contacting him the first time.
I would think the vacuum guy would steer clear of Gene since he couldn't adhere to the rules.

I've watched this entire season w/ zero expectations... it's been pretty damn rewarding so far.

my impression was it was Gene after a wreck. Car appeared upside down.

That was his car from the adventure in the desert picking up Lalo's bail money. More rusted so my assumption is time has passed and it's still there in that hole.

If he does make the call, I don't know if vacuum guy would know the circumstances for which he called. I'd imagine Gene would make that call fairly quickly after he ran off. And, that being said, how much time would it take for the authorities to a) get to Carol Burnett's house b) Discover who "Saul" really is. I mean, if you had some old lady saying she knew of a con man from ABQ who was in her house without any proof (Can't imagine Jeff fessing up), and her not knowing where Gene lives...I'd guess Gene has some time to get what he needs and get the hell out of town...vacuum guy or otherwise. Based on the foreshadow of the car in the preview....I wonder if the cartel/ any remaining bad dudes from the BB timeline will catch wind of Saul's existence. Or perhaps set a trap for him.
Its pretty certain the show will not end with him being hidden again, especially hidden with Kim. There is a precedent set now that the story is far from over if/when that happens. Kim is like adding steroids to Saul's conning.
I am guessing there will be one last major con in this episode that wraps things up between the authorities, Kim, and likely his death/incarceration. I cant see where it can possibly go though. he seems hopelessly wrapped up in being a villain. Kim is pretty miserable in her fake existence/guilt. IMO the happiest end that we can hope for is if Saul goes to prison and the last scene is him running some sort of fast-talking con on some jacked and confused inmates. But what is a potential happy-end for Kim?
I guess that Kim may sacrifice herself somehow so that Saul may live. "Im happy you are alive" was literally the only positivity from her in the last episode.

I think Kim's path to redemption (or as happy an ending as she can hope for) started with coming clean about Howard to both the authorities and his wife. Based on how cold Jimmy was to her and her reaction to him when signing the divorce papers, I'm thinking he's dead to her... I can't see her sacrificing anything for him after that.
Never say never, this show has kept me guessing every step of the way... but I don't see a happy ending for Jimmy / Saul at the end of this.
MAYBE Kim finds some peace, IDK.
The real irony IMO, is that Jimmy on several occasions wanted to pull back from the Howard grift, and at one point was somewhat torn about working w/ the cartel... It was Kim that kept pushing to take down Howard. It was Kim who suggested Jimmy's only other option to being a friend of the cartel was to be a rat. Several times Jimmy was at a crossroads leaning toward doing good, and it was Kim that steered him wrong.
Once the Howard grift ended with his death, it was Kim who wasn't been able to live with the guilt, where as Saul only seemed emboldened by what transpired and went on to become the scumbag we knew in Breaking Bad.
I think it was pertinent that Kim noticed the guy going into court all nervous about how he was dressed, and maybe she wants to get back to that altruistic lawyering.
The receptionist whining about her boyfriend buying her an exercise bike for her birthday cracked me up.

Ha! This is one of then few things my husband and I have argued about. (We now have a jar of each in the fridge 😂)
One thing I love about this series is its magnificent absence of laziness, whether it relates to writing, cinematography, acting, all of it. Done so damn well, and not a whiff of shark-jumping.

I was surprised that they caught him that quick....I was assuming most of the episode would be him running
IDK... if he gave Jeffey & his mom his full fake name, the police getting to his residence as quickly as they did adds up.
In hindsight, I was a little surprised that Oakley had no clue about Kim coming clean about Hamlin's death. In fairness, they have painted his character as buffoonish, and it was only 48 hours prior that Kim had submitted her affidavit, but still & all... you would think word of a story like that would spread pretty damn quickly in the Albuquerque law community.
