Better Call Saul - Season 3 - Page 13 - OOTV -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Tiny thing, but just want to point out the Pollos truck in the opening/future looked brand new and gleaming, illustrating the growth of Gus' operation.

But you guys prob caught that.

Why did Mike shoot into the air while the truck guys were out of the truck?

So they would assume it was hunters. If it was the first shot they heard as they were driving off, they would have suspected the shot was directed toward them and possibly stopped or retreated.

If he had only fired one shot at the sneakers as they were leaving, it would have been odd. Perhaps it would have seemed suspicious.

By firing multiple shots, he convinced the two truck guys that it was just hunters in the desert. So, when they heard another shot as they were leaving, they ignored it and probably never connected the gunshots to getting busted.

What do you hunt with rifles in the desert?

Llewelynn Moss was hunting for Pronghorns when he stumbled upon the drug deal gone bad in No Country for Old Men.

Kim doesn't have to be out of the picture for BB. She could certainly still be in Jimmy/Saul's life then. All we know is they won't be sharing office space together.

Hell, Chuck could still be at HHM. It's hard to imagine a scenario where Chuck peacefully coexists with Saul Goodman Attorney-at-Law, but just because we don't see someone in BB, doesn't mean that character can't still be part of Jimmy/Saul's life. All we see of Saul Goodman is what he does in the context of Walt/Jesse/Mike. The character doesn't stop existing beyond that.

Was about to post the same thing. Just rewatched the movie last Sunday night, my third favorite Coen Brothers movie.

Nitpick: No Country for Old Men is set in 1980.
