Jimmy/Saul's commercial resembles that Addiction Network commercial, the one where the actor (who looks like a child molester) is standing there pretending to be a physician/nurse and talking about opiate addiction.

"we all know what happens when we don't deal with addiction. someone dies. or even worse, they hurt others."

death: not the worst thing that can happen.

A good callback might be the toilet guy (from Season 1) asking for a commercial from Saul.

I was surprised they used a real Scotch brand (Macallan 35) then I remembered the only reason the producers had to use Zafiro Anejo was because no tequila brand wanted their product to be used to poison people.

I know Dimple Pinch sales shot up after being on "Breaking Bad".

Just about to watch last night's episode but this thought just popped in my head...

One of the things I really love about this show...

When watching TWD, sometimes an entire episode is spent on a character's plot line that I just don't give a fuck about and it's so damn boring. In BCS, the entire episode could be about Jimmy/Saul, the entire episode could be about Chuck, the entire episode could be about Kim, the entire episode could be about Mike, etc...they're all fucking great.

What am I forgetting about that lady's Navy husband that got Mike to go meet Nacho again?

I think it just has to do with Mike's ultimate distaste for Hector and Hector's killing of the innocent man who happened across the truck driver after the hijacking. Hearing the woman's story about her husband, coupled with Hector now trying to lure another citizen (Nacho's dad) into the cartel's web is what I assume prompts Mike to help Nacho.

meh. i don't think the storyline has much to do with nacho. no, i'm pretty sure mike was just imagining the lady gyrating in the wet concrete, which reminded him of the friend he desperately missed: the squat cobbler.

My take was that Mike knew he was sentencing Pryce to death by refusing to go along, and it was the woman's story that made Mike reconsider out of guilt. Mike doesn't care if Pryce gets himself murdered by getting involved with Nacho again, but Mike also knows that no matter how goofy, naive, and clueless Pryce might be, the guy has family *somewhere* that would grieve once he inevitably goes missing in a New Mexico desert and never returns.

At that point when Mike calls and agrees to go, he does not know what Nacho is planning or that it involves Nacho's dad and Hector.

The handwriting was iffy, but the date on Kim's check to Hamlin in Monday's (6/5) episode was March 4, 2005 (or 2003). And there isn't an Avery Road in Albuquerque (her address or the business address on the check).

So that clears up the time period for me.

What's funny is, I've seen support/therapy groups that had similar coping methods that Chuck was using (Yellow Bananas, Green Grapes, Orange...Oranges).

Yep, I guessed right.

When they went to the inside the car camera view, I was thinking Kim was either:

A) Going to get hit by a car (T-Bone) where the car would head towards the camera and smash into her side.

B) Kim was going to get into some sort of car accident.
