A very nice moment that lets us know Gus accepts who he is.

@@FidoeFTW Or he was saying He sees himself as God

He doesn't care about literally anything but revenge, this is extremely powerful to devote your life to a singular purpose.

He also knows that Kim gave HHM a chance and both Howard and Chuck repeatedly undermined her behind her back. And Jimmy knows that Chuck and Howard undermined each other. With Chuck even suing HHM and nearly bankrupting Howard. At this point Jimmy has seen enough of HHM to know that no one escapes unscathed. To have to be a robot corporate lawyer like Chuck with no guarantee of happiness anyways is too much risk.

And once he became his own boss, his unrestricted and colorful working style was so juicy and sweet that it attracts opportunistic people (especially hardened criminals) to further their own agenda. Just like the opening of S5E3. A mint chip ice cream (Saul) was being torn apart piece by piece by the ants (Lalo, Nacho, Mike, Gus, Walt, Jesse and unfortunately, Kim) until it was left with nothing but a cone which represents Saul causing Jimmy’s morality and sanity to be slowly but surely devoured until he became Gene, who was only a shell of his former self.

He absolutely did not, that is pure paranoia on Chuck’s part

@@verslang The worker that "fell" from the billboard was briefly one of Jimmy's previous onscreen clients. Their handshake mirrors the one between Jimmy and Marco at the start, and Jimmy later tries to hide it from Chuck

@@kor6999 I personally think the guy did actually fall, but there is a lot of evidence to support the claim, that the guy staged the fall. I just like to think so, because it was the first Crack before Chuck would keep going after Jimmy with everything Chuck saying about Jimmy being right except for the first one, being the billboard. But my theory is a bit of a long shot soo

@@kor6999 He also mutters, "took you long enough" to Jimmy when he helps him up. Anyone who thinks it wasn't orchestrated is getting played.

​@@verslangeven Saul is manipulating you into thinking that he did actually save the guy, idk how it slipped your head

I’m glad you pointed that out. It wasn’t a moral decision but a planned one.

I was about to watch this video but thank you for pointing this out. If someone doesn't even know that it was scam how could they make a video breaking down BCS

@@shahzadmunawarnizamani7186 the video is very very well done other than this inconsistency, i suggest you watch it.

No, not our Jimmy. Chuck is just paranoid.

To be honest, I didn't know that was staged until Chicanery, when all of Chuck's accusations clicked in my head. I thought the worker genuinely did fall off and everyone was being too harsh on Jimmy again.

@@onemoreminute0543 in the episode where the guy falls we see Jimmy give him money.

@@lmanproductions8680 I might have missed that detail on my first watch. Or, maybe I rationalized it as Jimmy paying him for his work on the billboard. Either way, my initial conclusions were put to rest by Chuck's outburst in 'Chicanery': -Did he swap those numbers? Yep! - Did he DEFECATE THROUGH A SUNROOF? Yep! -Did he steal money from his dad? Yep! -Did he stage the billboard accident? No!.... or did he? Everything else Chuck said was correct, so then I thought to myself that he was probably right about the billboard too.

@@verslang he defecated through a sunroof!!

Ok?

i mean, i think it's strange to say a decaying system is subject for a different discussion. that is the undercurrent of both breaking bad & better call saul. to ignore that is missing out on a lot of rich analysis imo. obviously not all lawyers are as corrupt as saul (this is a tv show after all) but its still a highly competitive field where you will find people who are desperately trying to achieve the american dream. the point of better call saul imo is that the line between the questions, 'did jimmy ever really have a chance?' and 'is jimmy responsible for his own downfall', is blurred. for every bad action jimmy takes, you can go around in circles when trying to pin blame on any sole individual. and its interesting you mention they're broken people. like... why do you think these people are broken in the first place?

I didn't get any restrictive claims on this one, though I have on others. Its an automated system so sometimes it picks up on things and sometimes it doesn't. If its anything like my videos, I'd recommend just disputing the claim, that usually means they drop it after 30 days. It's a really frustrating system, hope you get it sorted out!

Its a prequel with a little bit of sequel

Neoliberal refers to a broad operation of capitalism that encompasses the strategy of most governments in the world in the last 3 or 4 decades. Neoconservatism is a subset of neoliberalism but more specific. It is an ideology that developed around the U.S. Republican Party that adopted the presuppositions of neoliberalism but tailors it to the political strategy of the Republican Party. It’s typified by neoliberal economic policy paired with militarist and interventionist foreign policy and socially conservative views. So the simple summation is neoconservatism is one subset of neoliberalism which is much wider and all-encompassing

i think it goes both ways, because jimmy did in fact became a criminal lawer
