Spent the past 2 weeks catching up from s2. Wild ass ride. For some reason I thought Nacho was in BB (been too long might rewatch) so his death really hit. That last monologue was fucking killer.

Howard's death was fucked too. Just disturbing. Poor guy. Lalo is a fucking bastard. Dunno how or if Kimmy is gonna make it out of this. I'm guessing she won't :(

My guess is that Kim will survive but will bail since it was Jimmy's association with Lalo that got Howard killed.

You heard me.

I argue she's more evil than Saul at this point. He grifts people to make money because he had to work his way up.

Kim literally made it into her fetish. It's really gross.

The first like 5-10 minutes of every first episode has been a black and white post BB scene. Pretty sure you can find a compilation on YT.

Easily one of the top episodes between both shows.

I'm guessing since they didn't show any new scenes in the preview they might be jumping over to the Breaking Bad timeline now.

Well we knew that there would be a Lalo v Gus showdown, just didn't think it would be so soon.

My guess is that Kim will get disappeared by the vacuum cleaner guy and that she will reunite with Jimmy in the post-BB timeline.

Lalo vs Gus was so unbelievably tense. Two unstoppable evil masterminds. Holy shit was it well done.

i guess Lalo's only mistake was fighting on Gus's home turf. 1v1 in the streets he would've won, but I've situation like that, Gus is always 10 steps ahead of everyone. Kinda like an evil Batman lol.

Lalo I figured was gonna end up buried in there anyways. But when they showed Howard's body too it really bummed me out. We know his body is never going to be recovered out of that place . His family and friends are going to be lead to believe he went on some cocaine bender and killed himself.

That was one hell of an episode. The shot of Lalo and Howard in the grave almost brought a tear to my eye ngl. Howard did not deserve his fate whatsoever.

Also I just watched the American Greed: Saul Goodman extra vignette thing that came out in April and they sorta speak of Kim in the present tense as if she's alive. It's just an extra so I dunno if it means anything.

I'm really not sure where they go from here. I can't believe there's 5 more eps left. I thought half the shit that happened this ep would happen at least like 4 more eps in lol

I'm gonna break the combo here. I was a little disappointed. All of the hype of Lalo and Gus just seemed to have an anti-climatic end. And the run around seemed ridiclous.

Why pull Tyrus from the Laundry? Why was the security guard not looking at the cameras when Lalo broke in? He didn't cause a distraction. Why did the guards just stand still when being shot?

And then the age old "Villain just stands there gloating after he won so the other guy can shoot him" is kind of a played out trope.

Maybe it's my own fault for getting hyped, but this felt like a rushed resolution.

The backhoe gets in the same way that the lab equipment gets in. It's also specifically well-ventilated.

A couple thoughts about this episode and its implications for the future timeline (also why do we have to hide spoilers if the topic title already has a spoiler tag? Anyway)

It was nice how we got that little Easter egg with Saul starting to say It was Ignacio,
not me when Lalo tied him up and gagged him. All these years later from what was originally a throwaway line in Breaking Bad, and weve now come full circle. We now know exactly the context of why he would have said that line, and just to make sure there were no loose ends, Mike specifically told Saul that Lalo is not coming back and not Lalo is dead meaning that by the time hes kidnapped by Walt and Jesse, its perfectly reasonable for Saul to assume that Lalo has come back to finish the job, because in his mind theres no one else that would be after him. Now we can finally put this question to rest and properly appreciate that line from BB. Vince Gilligan is a story telling genius.

Another thing that will really make future BB rewatches more interesting is knowing exactly whos buried underneath the meth lab. We as viewers will now be able to watch any BB scenes that take place there and no longer just think of it as a lab that Gus created, because now its taken on a whole new meaning. It can now be viewed as Gus crowning achievement because its where he quite literally buried his competition, and knows hes down there almost like a trophy. A Salamanca buried right underneath his own creation that was designed for him to take over their role in the first place. Its quite poetic when thought about in those terms.

Howard and Lalo killed back to back, that was insane. Poor Howard, though. Not remembered as a good lawyer, but as a dude who was on drugs, went crazy and drowned himself. I knew Lalo had to die, but not sure I'm really satisfied with a shoot out. Was hoping for something more low key.

Rhea Seehorn needs to win an emmy. She is by far the best actor in this show.

Lyle is the biggest simp for retail work. He actually offered to take his boss to the airport.

The question now is "what do they do for five more episodes?"

Kim is going to see Saul sending her on Lalo's "errand" as a massive betrayal. This is going to be the giant "step to far" in the shenanigans they have been pulling, esp. with Howard's death and Mike telling them to keep telling the lie that they started (oof).

As I posted upthread, I think Kim will eventually go the Saul (in BB) route and get a new identity/life somewhere else. She's either going to somehow face indictment for Howard's death, or stupidly get caught up in Fring or Salamanca's business and have to disappear.

I think the most brutal/brilliant part of that episode was that Lalo breaking into Saul's apartment, shooting Howard, and sending Kim off to kill Gus was JUST A RUSE to get security away from the laundromat. That is a cold-ass calculated motherfucker

That was wild. RIP Lalo, you magnificent bastard. And yeah, when BCS is over and I rewatch BB, the lab scenes are sure going to be different from now on. Again, poor Howard. Mike seemed to sure not like it. Besides being an innocent person caught in the crossfire, I bet Mike remembers Howard from his days manning the toll at the courthouse.

He was even singing a LPH jingle while coming in. He's got to be Gus' most loyal employee ever. Gus better give him a raise and make him a manager at another Pollos restaurant.

Maybe, but I'm not so sure yet. She says Jimmy had her sent to get her out of the apartment with Lalo so she might understand why. Then again, she might start thinking that so we'll have to see.

But none of that has happened yet (in the timeline).

With Lalo dead, there is very little reason to believe that Kim will get killed off (besides the fact that Saul never mentions his "murdered wife" at all in BB). She has to go away somehow, either by going to jail. leaving Albuquerque on her own, or starting a new life.

And we still need to see what the post-BB timeline does. We haven't seen anything from it for a long time, but we were left with the cliffhanger of Saul being "found" and choosing to go deal with it himself rather than doing another identity wipe/relocation.
