Ahhhhhh, totally right. never even crossed my mind to look at the dates when those showed up. Eye immediately drawn to the dollar value obv. Awesome.

Also, the Juan Tabo address has something to do with what Walt says in Breaking Bad. Doesnt Gale live on Juan Tabo and he gives that address when hes telling Jesse to go kill him over the phone?

Oooohhh this would be a nice little FU parting gift

Yeah, they just don't act like a couple. More like friends with benefits.

Not sure how young you are, but Rhea Seahorn is in her mid-40s(!), and in the real world a middle-aged, educated, intelligent, financially-successful woman is basically undatable. Who in BCS-land would you ever pair her with? Howard is surely either gay or dating a 25 year old elementary school teacher.

Next season, I imagine Jimmy dumps her because he can't deal with a woman who makes more money then him, and Kim spends the rest of the run in an ongoing, comic-relief, side story mostly comprised of a series of disastrous Match.com dates with married losers.

Probably more in case Hector died.

I'm old. She's perfect for me.

And she smokes. If she had a kid even I wouldn't date her.

Nacho maybe.

Seems gay to me.

Jimmy dumping Kim would make some heads explode

Yeah, I can't date a smoker...otherwise, Kim would be be a perfect match for me.

I'd find a way around it.

One or two episodes ago Howard had a bottle of whiskey that showed what year it was from, and he mentioned how old it was.

IT's called being married. But I don't think Kim's character is mid 40s, more like early 30s. The incongruity is that she is held out as a career oriented person and being with Jimmy is a drag on her plans to climb the ladder. Obviously she's intrigued by his hustling but is unexpectedly unconcerned with having him as a long term partner.

I had no idea. Thanks!

Yes, Gale was on Juan Tabo. Map of ABQ shows it's a pretty major street in that town. I think there were other references to it on BrBa as well.

You are so CRUEL!

Not saying you're wrong.

But wow, what a heart-breaking picture you just painted.

My impression upon completing the episode was that Kim will wind up blaming Jimmy for Chuck's suicide, which will drive her away. But seeing as no one else drew that conclusion, I'm not so sure now.

Edit: one redditor thinks perhaps Chuck's suicide will lead to Jimmy driving Kim away for fear of ruining her like he ruins others he's been close to. That has legs.

Of the two the second is MUCH more likely

As YTF said, Juan Tabo is a major road in ABQ, and is where Gale lived. Also (IIRC), Jimmy's original office (the nail salon) is on the south and of Juan Tabo, and the dam where vacuum cleaner guy picks up people is on the north end.

Oh, and the law offices of Saul Goodman and associates are (will be?) on N Juan Tabo.

Are we really sure Chuck was a suicide? On first viewing I thought he was just having kind of a spastic, uncontrolled episode due to the severity of his "illness". I didn't think it was obviously a suicide although I can see how it might be. Even if it was certain it was suicide how on earth would anyone be able to tell (for insurance or impact on Jimmy/Kim relationship)? They will be able to determine the fire started from a lantern that fell/knocked over but how that happened would be impossible to ascertain.

bruh didn't you see the suicide prevention hotline number at the end of the ep? :P

Howard wants Chuck out because the insurance is too expensive.

Chuck wants to die for unclear mental illness.

I suppose I shouldn't wonder why the flames don't drive him out of the house.

Whisk(e)y stops ageing once bottled.

This would be fine but for the fact that the show's creators said they specifically cast Seehorn because of her chemistry with Jimmy. I'm like 99% sure I saw this on an episode of Talking Saul or something, but I'm not going to bother to find a link. If I had never heard them said that, then I may well have interpreted it as you did.

Their relationship is probably the most realistic thing i've seen on tv or in the movies. TV and movies have tons of nudity, pda, and extreme over the top passion which you wont find with basically any couple over the age of 35. They aren't teenagers anymore- they arent going to **** in a public bathroom or grab ass in public especially in a work setting-- which is basically where all their scenes take place.

tbh im not even interested in watching any episodes or scenes irt their relationship as a couple- it's time consuming and pretty pointless considering they've already established they're a couple, living together etc. What more do you guys want? GoT style scenes? Because you aren't going to get it.

fwiw I think they have great chemistry. What you guys are getting confused is that they both are very career oriented people who aren't as emotional available in relationships as some other people that aren't as career focused.

yep, agree with most of that. they clearly have good chemistry, like in the episode where they run the scam.

one of the writers:

Someone asked earlier if Saul jumped the gun by going into hiding: maybe the cops don't have anything on him?

This came up in the comments under an Odenkirk interview I just read, and a commenter points out: Both Huell (in the safe house) and Jesse (in Hank's video interview) sang like birds. You gotta figure they detailed Saul's life of crime.

Kim is not early 30s, come on. I consider myself quite bad at guessing peoples' ages but even this sticks out to me as off.

To me, Kim looks late 30s / early 40s on the show and I guess they would have done a different make-up job if she was supposed to be significantly younger?
