Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis is the first season finale of Breaking Bad (2008) or Better Call Saul (2015) that wasn't written by Vince Gilligan or Peter Gould.
- GoofsChuck goes berserk and destroys the power meter with a baseball bat. The meter falls off the post and it is clearly shown that the wires that should have been connecting it have previously been cut. Of course, at this point Chuck is also an unreliable narrator so if the scene is intended to be from his point of view, then it may be accurate.
- Quotes
Jimmy McGill: Something happened, and it made me think about what went down between you and me and... I wanted to say, in hindsight, I could've made different choices.
Chuck McGill: Is that so?
Jimmy McGill: Yeah. I mean, I'm not saying it's all on me. It's not. But if I had to do it all over again, I would maybe do some things differently. And I just thought you should know that.
Chuck McGill: That you have regrets?
Jimmy McGill: Yeah. I have regrets.
Chuck McGill: Hmm. Why?
Jimmy McGill: 'Cause you're my brother. There aren't that many of us McGills left and, uh, I think we should stick together.
Chuck McGill: No. Why have regrets at all? What's the point?
Jimmy McGill: What do you mean?
Chuck McGill: Well, look at you. You're in so much pain. Why are you putting yourself through all this?
Jimmy McGill: 'Cause I wanted to tell you...
Chuck McGill: That you have regrets. And I'm telling you: don't bother. What's the point? You're just gonna keep hurting people.
Jimmy McGill: That's not true.
Chuck McGill: Jimmy, this is what you do. You hurt people, over and over and over. And then there's this show of remorse.
Jimmy McGill: It's not a "show".
Chuck McGill: I know you don't think it's a show. I don't doubt your emotions are real. But what's the point of all the sad faces and the gnashing of teeth? If you're not going to change your behavior, and you won't...
Jimmy McGill: I can change.
Chuck McGill: Why don't you skip the whole exercise? In the end, you're going to hurt everyone around you. You can't help it. So stop apologizing and accept it. Embrace it. Frankly, I'd have more respect for you if you did.
Jimmy McGill: What about you, Chuck? You didn't do anything wrong? You're just an innocent victim?
Chuck McGill: Let me put your mind at ease, Jimmy. You don't have to make up with me. We don't have to understand each other. Things are fine the way they are. Hey... I don't want to hurt your feelings, but the truth is, you've never mattered all that much to me.
[Chuck turns his back on Jimmy and sits behind his desk to resume his work. Jimmy remains frozen for a moment, stunned, injured, then he slowly and weakly begins to walk out of the room. Just before exiting, he turns to look at him one final time to find him still working, ignoring him, throwing a quick glance his direction to see if he's left yet. Jimmy then silently turns around and makes his departure, permanently wounded from his brother's hurtful words]
- ConnectionsFeatured in Talking Saul: Lantern (2017)
This episode shows the complexity of Chuck and his scene with Jimmy was a heartbreaking reminder at how their relationship had become! Chuck might not be loved, but he sure as hell was well written! I really felt sorry for him in this episode! His scenes were dark and real, and I couldn't stop thinking if this is where he needed Jimmy the most and if they were on terms.. maybe things would have been different!
The scene with Hector was great too! Giancarlo is superb as Gus! With his facial expressions alone, you know what is going on inside his head, like when he is looking at Nacho!
Jimmy also made a sacrifice, and descided to do the right thing, even if it did not benifit him, as he has yet to fully embrace his Saul persona!
