Jeez, this episode has been brutal in so many ways.

Edit: Extremely brutal considering
that's how Mike dies as well as many of Walt's victims. No one ever finds them, all gone in acid

I'm not understanding why Kim is feeling so bad for Chuck. If I remember right, Chuck didn't hesitate trying to get Mesa Verde from her by trying to make it seem like they were too big of a client for her.

I wouldn't be feeling bad for Chuck, but I think Kim is just too good a person.

She feels like they took advantage of him, used his mental illness to discredit him even though he was right about what Jimmy did.

Hoooly shit that scene. I was going back and forth the whole time trying to decide if he was being genuine or not

I guess I can understand that. It's still fuck Chuck though.

The end of the episode....damn. I'm still not mad at Jimmy though. He's just frustrated at his situation which can be traced directly back to Chuck and his vendetta against Jimmy.

There's no way. I think he was there to get his money back, then when he found out his premiums were going to skyrocket he found a way to stick it to Chuck yet again. Absolutely savage.

I agree. Hurting Chuck probably didn't cross his mind until he realized he wouldn't get a refund and next year his premium will go up. Then he thought - "Chuck's costing me money, I'll cost him money."

Empathy for crucifying a mentally ill man the way that Jimmy did (even though Chuck was delusional about his mental status)? It makes sense why she would feel bad about it considering Jimmy didn't actually pull that gambit off by the book, and his gambit resulted in a breakdown that made everyone question whether Chuck was really in his right mind.

Wait, what'd you do Jimmy!?

Y'all got what was coming to both of you. Just move on. Why you continuing this feud. Especially when Kim is starting to feel bad for ol' Chuck.

Things are gettin' toasty here, can't wait~

I believe that's the first time we've seen Jimmy turn evil. Everything before this was small cons, pranks, morally grey corner-cutting. Did you see him break in the restaurant? Did you see his face after letting his brother's condition slip?

Shit got dark, fast. Holy shit.

That was so savage. I can still kind of empathize with Jimmy here but I'm sure we will soom see a future Walter White scenario here soon where the "protagonist" of the show is not the good guy. Kind of bums me out but this show is so well-written that I know they will pull it off.

I was uncomfortable when he was trying to pressure to furniture story guy and when he was in the restaurant with Kim my skin was crawling everytime he sought a mark out.

It's incredible how well the show is flipping the perception on his "Slipping Jimmy-ness" in one episode.

It was a pretty slow episode, maybe the worst in the season but the scene between Mike and Nacho and the ending made up for all the other slow stuff. That smile at the end was some

type shit. It's maybe the most Saul thing Jimmy has done, I feel. What he did with Chuck, even though he hated tearing him down like that, he did because he felt he HAD to do it, this was just done out of malice. My boy Jimmy is breaking bad.
