Better Call Saul - Season 3 - Page 11 - OOTV -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

My working theory is that Mike WANTED Jimmy to be noticed to needle Gus. That's why he sent in such an obvious mark. In spy movies they send in an obvious dummy to give the security something to discover, so the real agent lurks undetected.

Maybe if Mike knew Gus' ring was on watch for a spy. Mike doesn't know who Gus is and he met Saul in his car nearby right after...

Why did Victor deliberately show his face as he drove away from LPH? S'pose Gus wants Mike to think that Victor is the head honcho.

Who whacks the current bagman? We know he ain't getting out of this alive. Money on Gus.

I don't think his open window even ever faced Mike.

Victor did glance towards Mike before turning.
May have been a coincidence.

Victor glanced left out the open driver's window, which wasn't facing toward Mike. Mike was in front of him, not to his left.

I'm liking it...it's going to suck when Jimmy and Kim make the final break-up. And Kim mentioning the sunk-cost fallacy just made me lover a little bit. Nothing better than a loyal woman.

It's telling that even when Jimmy tells Chuck he's gonna die alone and crazy, he doesn't relish it cause he still loves his brother. Chuck is such a slime. Last scene with Kim was great, Kim still GOAT.

I will consider character worth the wait if/when she throws Jimmy under the bus to save her Mesa Verde career.

Do we know there will be a "final" break-up?

I doubt it's a coincidence that Jimmy uses a KC Royals lunchbox while working at a Cinnabon in Omaha/Nebraska, while Kim seems to be a Royals fan (shirt in season 2) who is originally from a small town close to the Nebraska/Kansas boarder which is only 100 miles south of Omaha.

I thought it had to do with the Omaha Royals (now called the Omaha StormChasers) being KC's AAA farm team.

It reminded me of Walt and Jesse carrying the barrel of methlamine instead of rolling it.

I laughed because it's the only thing in five seasons of television across two shows that Mike has been bad at.

Except for not getting killed by a former high school teacher.
