Mike's star gaze seemed a bit out of place and verrry cheesy to me. Like Hallmark tv cheesy. And when did Mike and Haley get into stars? Seemed really out of left field. But it did give us a Mike v. Tyrus!
You never pretended to give a crap about something your daughter liked? He was telling her boy scout level knowledge. Things that a sniper veteran should know.

It was a bit shoehorned, especially how they had her stargaze for all of about 2 minutes so they could start and wrap up the scene. But I didn't mind the content and totally get what they are going for.

I don't know if there was a specific thing shown on screen, but I'd imagine living with a guy like Howard would be so tiresome.

The pictures that Kim or Saul had of the 'fake mediator' looked very similar to the photos the PI showed to Hamlin.
Is Hamlin's PI actually working for Kim/Saul? I know Saul had his "film students" take pictures, but those pics have to get to Hamlin's PI.

And they definitely had to make sure the PI caught Jimmy getting the cash from the bank and seeing the 4 stacks of cash. that's too much to leave to chance.

Maybe someone mentioned this before earlier in the thread, but my current theory is the PI is in cahoots with Jimmy/Kim.

That's what I am guessing as well.

It seemed clear to me that it was a nightly routine that Mike set up so he could see his granddaughter every day. And the mom is not going to tolerate her daughter sitting out there for an hour every day before bed. She will want to get the kid in the house as fast as possible.

Is Mike afraid that Lalo is going to come after his DIL and granddaughter?

Don't forget that there was someone watching him when he had Kaylee & Stacey in a hotel so yes I'm sure he's concerned about their safety.

Lalo is casting a wide swath - causing terror in Fring and his crew, in Saul and Kim, and he's visiting and/or brutalizing people in Germany (or Eastern Europe, whatever).

Meanwhile he's just out there on his own, no protection, acting fearless.

Who would be running the cartel business stateside at this point? I suppose it doesn't matter.

After that many years of marriage? I'd be leaving little spills, crumbs, and dust bunnies all over the house just to eff with him.

I was going to suggest this a couple of days ago but talked myself out of it. Since Jimmy and Kim have inside knowledge of HHM, you would think they would know who Howard's go to guy would be and they would just need to beat him to the punch.

They know about golf and timing, they knew about the shrink visit. Howard is OCD so easy to predict his movements.

But then why would the PI go along with it? A part of the settlement money? Seems farfetched but plausible.

If that is the case I'm sure Jimmy & Kim simply paid the PI more than Hamlin.

Or they knew he would hire a PI and they setup all of these different meetings that the PI would take pictures of. Why would they have to hire the PI if he is already surveiling them? If you know you're being watched, you can take actions that paint whatever picture you want them to have.

But is that all to it? Before Saul showed up and is doing the long con, Howard and Cheryl were good?

But where do the fake photos come in from the Team Video kids? Everything they are pointing to right now needs to be upgraded into wearing a cast.

Excellent hour of television. With all these character directors - it makes you wonder how much steering Gilligan&Gould (GG) have with everything. Think it's 60% GG producers? I digress...

My interpretation of the Kim's cold open - that she wasn't happy just "getting away with it" she didn't want to get caught. And she yearns for her mother's attention, clearly. I thought she was more slippin' Kimmy than we thought.

  • Lalo/Hungarian scene was high intensity. "Go ahead and wrap that up" Bro- you took his foot completely off
  • I feel like we've seen Hamiln's wife actress somewhere recently. Was she in Severance? I'm gonna go IMBD...Sandrine Holt - yea she was in HoC and Mr Robot.
  • In that same vein - I feel for Howard. Just seems like OCD/Social Anxiety savant that's misunderstood.
  • I think they're going to remove the water features
  • The U-Turn clouds was a beautiful shot
  • D-Day next Monday is gonna be delicious TV

It's only episode 7 followed by a round table discussion of the episode with Odenkirk, Fabian, Seehorn, and Gould according to my guide.

Last season when they were in the fancy hotel hiding from Lalo, they mentioned that the "worst" that could happen would being disbarred. I feel they were foreshadowing to Kimmy

We finally saw Saul's house in one cold open and got a taste of how large he was actually living. I'm starting to think that Sandpiper does pay off for Jimmy, but at the expense of Kim.

OK, time for something out of left field. Kim is actually quite pissed with Jimmy and has been running a confidence game on him, saying she want to destroy Howard when really she wants to destroy Jimmy. Jimmy figures out all that is going on and pins everything on Kim.

It's only somewhat believable due to the fact Jimmy embarrassed her in front of Mesa Verde, didn't include her in what the angle was until after she was made to look foolish. Then she was upset and seemed about to break up but instead suggested they should get married. It was odd, but it still seems too mean spirited for Kim to do that to Jimmy, someone she did love.

I also think Jimmy had promised to tell Kim the complete, unvarnished truth about things prior to the shootout in the desert when picking up Lalo's bail money - then he didn't tell her about it and she found the mug with the bullet hole.

Or was it AFTER that event he promised to tell everything? Pretty sure it was before.

But every time anyone questions Jimmy around her, or questions her being with him, she defends him and their relationship very strongly. I don't think she's pulling a con on Jimmy, but I at least like the fact the writer's are putting things out there to make you wonder. I just think she's making foolish choices and they will bite her.

OK, some serious speculation. While Howard was making the fancy coffee that his estranged wife didn't appreciate, he was making himself chamomile tea. Chamomile tea doesn't have any caffeine. Considering both what the vet set about caffeine and the pupil dilation drug and how Lydia was killed in "Breaking Bad", do you see where I'm thinking this may be headed?

Howard was a villain as the beginning of the series, but they have been remaking him into a more sympathetic yet tragic character. They almost seem to be setting him up for a fall.

He'll always be the guy that tried to steal Kelly.

But yeah, interesting point that maybe he doesn't drink caffeine at all.
