    i thought it was a good episode. sure there was filler, albeit funny stuff "yeah that's it. fill me up conner!" haha......the scenes with his brother were great. and the last 10 minutes that featured mike were outstanding. i think the show pivots here to their relationship and saul/jimmy defending him in court for whatever he did.

    The episode was a little bit all over the place, but I still enjoyed it. I'm glad that they are finally going to start getting into Mike's story and how the relationship with him and Jimmy really got started.

    Also, the diner that they showed Mike sitting in at the end was used in Breaking Bad before but I can't figure out which episode! Anyone else pick up on that?

    First weak episode in my opinion. Looking forward to a little more back story on Mike next week.

    Agreed. Happy it ended well, though, and the scenes from the next episode look great. So really looking forward to next week. I love the character of Mike!

    I noticed that with the diner, too! Was it where Todd met with his uncles once in the last season? Can't exactly put my finger on it either.

    I can't remember either. Was it where Walt met with the corporate lady, can't remember her name. She was paranoid like a MF.

    I wonder why Jimmy doesn't commit his brother. He seems to care for his brother and wants to help him, now he can't deny it is a mental issue, and he gets to stick it to Hamlin. Seems he would get everything he wants by doing it, yet he hasn't.

    Maybe it goes back to Chuck never giving up on Slippin' Jimmy, so he won't give up on his brother?

    I'm still wondering what that broad and saul have going on. Didn't Mike say in BB he got in trouble for shooting a guy while he was a cop?

    Isn't that exactly the same way he got arrested in Breaking Bad, near the end? I felt like I had seen that before.

    I liked this episode. A little slower than the rest but we do need some back story info. I wonder if Saul's brother started with his shit when Jimmy left the practice. Could he possibly be pulling a Slipping Jimmy on everyone?

    Yeah, I don't buy that. I remember Mike pulling up to the house and getting out of a car when he got there to take care of the Jane situation.

    Wait, are you saying that Jimmy worked for the firm that his brother is partner in? I didn't pick up on that, but maybe I missed it.

    Just went back and looked. Definitely not next door. The house Jane lived in was a side by side townhouse style. Mike's neighbor looks like a single front door. God I need a life.

    I'm pretty sure I heard that. He wasn't a partner though.

    It definitely crossed my mind that jimmys brother could be faking this whole thing just to get his brother on the right track. Especially after he got up and said "the coffee isn't going to make itself."

    I never got the impression that Jimmy worked with his brother at all.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.
