They become the part.

Walter became Heisenberg; Jimmy became Saul Goodman.

Its not even close.

She fully finds her stubborn self again, and its a glorious thing to witness.

You want me to say something?

You should turn yourself in.

The best she can manage is to end the call by saying that shes glad hes alive.

The heartbreaking thing is that she means it.

But Jimmy is undoubtedly right about Kims new life.

It isnt worthy of her.

with each thrust in their surely unspectacular lovemaking sessions.

Florida Kim probably would have never taken action had a voice from the past not summoned her.

She feels like she owes the truth to Howards widow, Cheryl.

From there, the chips will fall as they may.

One important wrinkle to Kims confession is that its calculated.

She was a lawyer, after all, so surely she thought about it.

(Crucially, Kimknowshes alive, so shes not coming completely clean here.)

By contrast, Jimmy is pretty far gone.

The mark wakes up, too, leading Jimmy to improvise an escape.

True to form, Jimmy has planned for this contingency.

He knows very well that Jeff is a loser.

It turns out con man in Albuquerque is just as potent a search as funny cat videos.

And now, Jimmy McGill is on the run again.

But theres a small moment of irrepressible humanity for Jimmy here, too.

He cannot harm Marion, despite his threatening posture with the phone cord.

He has a weakness for the elderly.

Just ask the grateful plaintiffs in the Sandpiper suit.

Burners

The University of American Samoa is to law schools whatHollywood Upstairs Medical Collegeis to medical schools.

The exchange between Florida Kim and her boyfriend (Looks like rain again.

Yeah, it does.)

A good retort from Cheryl after hearing that Howard didnt suffer.

Jimmy and Kims lies have painted a picture of him thats hard to erase.

Its Kims hope that her confession will go some distance in fixing that, but thats a tall order.

Lovely scene between Kim and Jesse about Saul Goodmans capabilities as a lawyer.

When I knew him, he was.

That seals it for Jesse, who wants to get his guy Emilio out of trouble.

(Alas, poor Emilio has another kind of trouble awaiting him.)

But Kims use of past tense says a lot about the distance between Jimmy and Saul.
