Given that Saul ends up with the office, something happens to Kim, this seems to be the first step.
He may end up with Francesca, but it's a completely different office in Breaking Bad.

Why did they make it a point to show the body's wedding ring instead of a watch or something?

Ha, you guys really think that Mike somehow randomly tracked down the body of that woman's husband... via Nacho?


While I believe that the story of the lady's missing husband simply served as motivation for Mike to track down the buried body of the Good Samaritan, it doesn't seem completely ridiculous that her husband was the Good Samaritan (driving to go out for a hike, stopped to help the truck driver, and then was murdered by Hector's men, and buried under Nacho's direction).

Didn't she tell Mike how long it had been since her husband disappeared? I can't find anywhere to review that episode, but I feel like it was a while and wouldn't fit with Mike's truck robbery unless they've jumped time without mentioning it to the audience. I guess we really don't know for sure how long it's been since Mike arrived in ABQ and just happened to hook up with the streetwise veterinarian.

I don't remember one way or the other.

-Just looked it up. She said he disappeared several years prior.

Just watched it tonight and logged on to check the discussion....OMG guys the body was the Good Samaritan's. That was not the part of the episode I expected to be up for debate.

Good episode other than the community service cop scene. I really don't buy that he would be that likely to give in with a threat of being sued.

How did he find the body? Metal detector.

You people with this "ladies Husband" theory, please tell me this is all trolling?

Found this:

Let's be clear the body Mike found was not Anita's
missing husband Alan, as she clearly states that her husband went missing eight years ago, and this other individual has only been dead for a few months. But Mike was clearly quite affected by her state of uncertainty, and so he decided to do something for another fallen soldier.

Maybe Nacho knew the guy that killed him 8 years ago and the body was well preserved under the sand.

I wasn't complaining. For a while I too thought the good Samaritan was the husband until I read the article.

The reply was just a response to our unknown friend

I don't have a problem with you guys discussing it, I enjoy mocking you.

It was a dead give away that it was the Good Samaritan bc it was the same billboard Mike hid behind to pull off the truck heist. The Salamanca guys killed the Good Samaritan on the spot and took him out into the desert.

It did seem to be in pretty good shape. But a dry desert can mummify a body fairly quickly vs it turning into the usual mess.

Here's the unbelievable part... good Samaritan gets killed by drug criminals and they bury him with a gold ring still on his finger.

The cartel lost $200K on a single truck shipment and you think they care about a $200 gold ring which might connect them to the murder of a missing person?

The point of showing the wedding ring was for Mike's conscience. This was a man with a wife, presumably a family, that will now receive some closure.

Also, he doesn't find the body with a metal detector unless the body has a ring on it.

So you think the low-level drivers aren't going to take anything extra they can get.
oh no

how do metal detectors work? I think there's a lot of iron or copper in the desert in NM, which is why it has that reddish hue from rust. ... would the detector find a small buried gold ring and not detect all other metal ores such as iron in the sand/rocks?
The Collective
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I think if the iron has oxidized, it will read out on a metal detector as a mineral instead of a metal. The detector can be set to not pick that up.

I think that's also why they had that cool shot showing him having to dig in a bunch of spots and that the metal detector did go off for lots of things that wasn't metal on the body.

I wold suspect that drivers who have to go thru customs on a regular basis are vetted for their caution and discretion and are therefore well compensated.

Not sure why you would think it was anyone other than the wife's husband. Even in the flashback during the intro, Mike tells Nacho that he wants something from Nacho...which during that week strongly suggested he was asking about the husband.

Good lord.
