all in all, i would have liked the plan a lot more if it had less moving parts, i think they felt the need to have all the moving parts so kim would throw away her lunch in order to help be part of it, but in the end setting up the pi line hoping it got changed in time to a relevant place for howard (requiring him to use that specific database or asking assistant to call rather than using the number stored in his phone etc etc) howard would hire through his office seemed a bit optimistic and put the entire thing down to howard making the call at all and specifically to the planted number
like the whole thing would have collapsed if a bunch of things didn't happen exactly as forseen - no way an experienced con man would do it like that with so many moving parts
what i want to know is if lalo was sure they were tapping that line then why would he ever risk calling them in the first place and why would it only dawn upon him suddenly
