    Is there anything Mike can't do?

        What was going on with the taxicab driver in the B&W scenes? Probably in Saul's head but maybe a real threat?

          I think it represents the unbearable stress that living on the run really is. He is paranoid as hell now, and even mundane events are tearing him apart.

          And this is the theme of the episode, and maybe the season. Paranoia induced by being up to shady ****. Lots of characters dealing with that now.

          I think Jimmy is fully transformed into Saul now. You can tell by his lack of connection to Kim, his inability to even feign empathy with Howard. I mean, Howard';s confession had to twist the knife in Jimmy's gut, since he is the one that set the insurance premium skyrocketing in order to get Chuck fired.

          As that seen was playing out, I kept thinking about what was going through Jimmy's mind, and how would he react. I did not see that coming.

          And yeah, Mike is just ****ing awesome.

            This is why it sucks when there's a long period of time between seasons. I completely forgot this until you just mentioned it. No wonder he felt no empathy, he's at fault here.

              I don't know that he's fully transformed but he's getting a lot closer. His distancing from Kim and his reaction to Howard's confession are all happening after the shock of the moment so maybe there's a settling down period albeit a short one?

                His reaction also makes me feel like it doesn't matter that someone else feels responsible. What matters is that Chuck killed himself on purpose which means Jimmy's actions had a true impact on him.

                  I had no idea this was back on. The advertising was terrible for this season. I can’t wait to dive back in.

                    You're not lying. If my DVR wasn't set to record from the previous seasons I would've never known it was back on.

                        Great but not totally clear copy machine company scene. Funny to see Uncle Jack (Always Sunny In Philidelphia, not to be confused with Todd's Uncle Jack) in a serious role.

                        Wonder if Nacho survives the series?

                          I hope so, I really like his character. Glad to see it appears he'll be given a more prominent role in the series too.

                            I'm gonna wait until the season is over so I can binge it.

                              I always assumed Nacho is going to die at some point since he's obviously not in Breaking Bad.

                              It seems to me that they are adding to this suspense more since Season 2 as he continues to find himself in close to death situations.
