I don't. To me it was showing the side of him that still cared about his first clients. He wanted to make sure that her beloved Hummel got to the person she wanted to receive it. He was genuinely sad at her death and the fact that he missed her memorial. He hasn't gone full Saul yet.hurleyag said:
Speaking of Hummel stealer. Jimmy made a point of checking who had Mrs. Strauss' Hummel. I predict a quick buck to be made going after that piece.
I thought this when he first asked, but as the conversation progressed, I came around that Jimmy actually cared what happened to her and her family. That he's not a total heartless *******. He did bond with some of the olds.hurleyag said:

For once I was right.Junkhead said:
Jimmy is definitely going to get those kids back. I have faith.
And Jimmy didnt offer to look over the probate documents even though he likely could have done so without much knowledge from the NM bar. Instead he did the 'right' thing and referred the son to HHM. It seems he sincerely wants to go back to being an attorney and helping people that otherwise would not get their legal needs met.Junkhead said:I don't.

I've been the same for the nearly 20 years I have been here. Yet it's weird how it only started happening on this board and since TCTTS started his anti-politics crusade. He and others (many of whom are on this thread) started bullying people they didn't agree with and so I stood up to them. I'm not going to reward bullying by scurrying away. I like discussing things with reasonable people and annoying a-holes. So I get the best of both worlds.Tobias Funke said:
You just remind me of the type of kid who our moms forced us to invite to things in middle school, and then we groaned and rolled our eyes at every comment you made. To this, you would get even more defensive and bratty and overall just unbearable. That's how you come across. You seem okay with that, and that's fine I guess. I know if I had at least a dozen posters telling me I was sucking up a thread, I'd probably stop.

Anyway, let's talk about Jimmy's mobile shop. Any chance of a backlash when the store owner realizes Jimmy is buying the product in bulk and then reselling it on the black market for a profit? Or is upper management just so checked out that he doesn't run a risk of getting caught?

Lastly, I just love Mike and the way he tells a story with his face. His eyes and mouth during the entire interaction with Kai were amazing.
I forgot about the supplier thing. Yeah that should probably get him fired if they find out.Old Tom Morris said:
Jimmy appeared to be buying it in a manner that they wouldn't know. ON the first buy through the store, he paid cash and rang them up on separate receipts. With the latest, it appears he went straight to the supplier and cut the store out entirely.
And I that's why they never actually hit the three punks with a bat, though that would have been satisfying to watch. Jimmy/Saul never sees himself as becoming one of the bad guys, just smart enough to take advantage of a situation.Junkhead said:I don't.

Yeah, Jimmy is not the violent type so I wasn't surprised that he just wanted to scare the punks. Even when he was Saul he would never be that directly involved with any Belize vacations. He would get someone else to handle the dirty work.ChiliBeans said:And I that's why they never actually hit the three punks with a bat, though that would have been satisfying to watch.

Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but I thought Don Juan explicitly made the call to set up local supply. They don't show us every detail, but I'm assuming the cartel is backing to whatever extent necessary.Philip J Fry said:
Okay, not to belabor the fast food talk, but it was pretty clear from BB that Gus's fast food restaurant was only a small part of a much bigger money laundering operation. Not out of question that he could have gotten a loan or an advance from the cartel either.
...and what about the Contractors?Tobias Funke said:

It's not 4-D chess assumptions. If he had the capital laying around then much of the 2nd half of BB makes no sense. In BB Gus made it clear to Gale when they were opening the boxed with equipment that they needed to start production as quickly as possible because he had sunk a lot of money into it. He tolerated WW killing his dealers and Jesse shooting Gale in the face because he couldn't afford for production to stop. If he really had so much money laying around that he could easily afford a dozen German engineers for 8 months at many times the natural cost, then a lot of the things Gus did in BB would have been unnecessary.BlueDeviledAg said:
Or, or, he already had the capital necessary to finance the operation. These 4-D chess assumptions are absurd.
