Better Call Saul Season Thread - Season Six - April 18th

[T0INE]

Finally watched it.

Great premiere.

That opening scene has me craving a cinnabon like crazy.

 

[Master Zik]

I thought I read somewhere that he changed his name to Goodman, in order to trick potential clients to think he was jewish.

That specific name choice was cuz of that but we learn changing his name wasn't necessarily his choice. So it all still fits.

"My real name's McGill. The Jew thing I just do for the homeboys. They all want a pipe-hitting member of the tribe, so to speak."

Wait.. new episode tonight?

 

[T0INE]

Wait.. new episode tonight?

BCS will air on Mondays.

Yesterday was a special premiere, most likely to attract some of The Walking Dead viewers to the show.

 

[sooperhooper]

I'm gonna get some shirts made that say

James McGill School of "Law"






And wait to get sued by Vince and company.


By then I'll have already cashed out.

 

[youngwolf]

Just saw the episode...very excited for the show now. I had low expectations coming into it, but all that is gone now. Last person I expected to open the door was Tuco.

Can't wait for tonight.

 

[coldcity]

was great & looking forward to tonight

 

[8pm at msg]

Saul Goodman is the greatest name a lawyer could probably have

 

[trilluminated]

first episode was so good that i gotta find and amc stream for tonight, i can't wait til it's "out"..

 

[nelson999]

Probably already been discussed in here, but i'm assuming the cinnabon scene and scene of him at home right after were in the future after BB happened?

 

[youngwolf]

^

Yep.

 

[trilluminated]

 

[nelson999]

he even said "in Omaha" and the Cinnabon he was working at in the episode last night said Nebraska on the wall

 

[silverbackhoney]

He said that he changed his name from Jimmy McGill (too Irish) to Saul Goodman in order to trick clients into believing he was Jewish, and therefor a better lawyer. Said that in Breaking Bad. The nail salon was the same one he laundered money in aswell. Cucumber water for customers only.

 

[bostoiah]

is someone after Saul? at the beginning during the Cinnabon scene he seemed pretty tense. he was shooked when he saw that customer walk towards him.

 

[silverbackhoney]

It makes sense...Saul pissed A LOT of people off according to the events in Breaking Bad.

Plus he's always had a wimpy easily-startled personality. Thats him.

 

[tvobach]

I thought the episode started out a bit slow...but I understand they were just setting the scene, etc...

So, Chuck is Saul/Jimmy's brother? Who is sick/injured? And the HH&M firm is trying to pay them off but Saul doesn't think it's enough money or is just stubborn and won't accept the money?

Tuco at the end 

One thing I thought of that would be really cool...if Gilligan had a bunch of hidden eggs like Pixar does (he has some, not a ton though)...like, for instance, if the skateboard twins were hitching on the Aztec or if Saul met that couple at Los Pollos Hermanos...fun stuff like that.

Pilot was

It was post-Breaking Bad with his new identity....a million people could have been after him.

it's only been one episode and there were plenty of connections to BB already. I'm sure there will be plenty more.

 

[sooperhooper]

I hope they don't go over board with the references. I completely forgot about the nail salon tho.

 

[calibeebee]

I missed a part of the show and had a question for those that remember. What happened in the part where he was smoking with the girl from the firm? I just saw them smoking and I went to the bathroom and when I came out it was a different scene.

 

[youngwolf]

Nothing. Just established that they knew each other.

He asked, "could you" and she cut him off with "no". Put the cigarette out and went back into the building.

The sick guy mentioned her to him when he was talking about people being laid off, so they obviously have some typ of history.

 

[sooperhooper]

Re watching now. The look of disparity/hope on his face when he was waiting for them to sign the check smh
