[Editor’s note: The following contains spoilers for “Better Call Saul” Season 4 Episode 1, “Smoke.”]
Case Summary
After catching up with Omaha Gene following his collapse in a Season 3 flashforward, “Better Call Saul” returns to its version of present day, specifically the morning after the Season 3 finale when Chuck’s house caught fire.
That event turned out to be fatal for Chuck, as Jimmy and Kim learn from Howard, who calls them early the next morning with the news. Jimmy isn’t very calmed by the fire inspector’s belief that Chuck didn’t suffer, noting that Chuck had thrown everything electronic in the backyard before the fire started, and that clearly something had triggered him. But answers elude him throughout planning the funeral and the funeral itself; it’s only when he talks to Howard at the end of the episode that he seems to find some clarity into what happened, and more importantly, decides how he will be processing it going forward.
