I wonder how she'll rationalize staying with him now.
Jimmy knew once that the girl got rejected by HHM for a scholarship that he had no shot to get his license back without scamming his way through. He had to tell her how it was going to be even if it did look a little creepy. He probably he wishes he knew that when he was her age.
I'm also curious about getting a legal license back. I mean they don't give it back to you and off you go, right? Isn't there a period of time where you're on some kind of probation to make sure that you aren't up to your old tricks? If so, wouldn't that delay him from doing what he does best?
Kind of weird how Werner thought that he'd come back, apologize and that everything would be cool. He knew that he would be away from Germany for a long time and still took the job. Sure there were delays that extended the work but he had to know that was a possibility. I also don't know how the entire team could go back to Germany and not say something about their boss dying. I figured if one of them had to go out like that they'd have to kill them all. Too many loose ends. Probably would have been a cleaner, easier story if he killed himself due to the depression rather than pull a runner. I really don't see how somebody could effectively write their way out of this. I guess they can say that Mike was lying but why would he lie to a guy he was going to kill anyway?
Mike also had a bit of a transformative moment. Earlier in the show, he was always looking for a less lethal way to handle problems even if it was at the expense of his own wellbeing. Initially, he tries to do that with Werner but once he realized that he spoke to Lalo about the project and that either he killed Werner or got disciplined by Gus for ****ing up, he chose the former. The Mike that wanted to stay clean evolved from clean parking lot worker to dirty criminal. He also hasn't seen his granddaughter or daughter-in-law in quite a while.
There are enough questions open to get me excited for the next season. I guess that won't be for a long time though.
In the prior episode I thought Werner realized that none of them are going home alive. When he escaped I didn't think it was to meet his wife and spend a few days together. I thought he and his wife would meet somewhere else (far away form there) and that Werner's intent was to never come back...
So, I was surprised that he actually did break out just to meet his wife.. Poor guy. He had all the signals to know he was a dead man, but didn't realize it until it was too late..
