Better Call Saul is the prequel to the award-winning series Breaking Bad, set six years before Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) became Walter White's lawyer. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and often against, Jimmy is "fixer" Mike Erhmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy's transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts "criminal" in "criminal lawyer."

Chuck Tries To Hide His Condition From Rebecca | Chicanery | Better Call Saul
/ breakingbad - Zábava
Chuck develops this "electricity sensitivity" psychological disorder after divorce. Jimmy turns into full-time Saul Goodman after divorce. These brothers have the worst break up coping mechanisms.
I thought it was jimmy’s success that was chucks stimuli to electricity
@@Kevinnnmanriquez His condition started soon after his divorce, Chuck says so in court in the episode "Chicanery."
@@Kevinnnmanriquez Starts after the divorce but his relationship with his brother greatly influences it as time goes on.
But he has EHS during this scene
Vince has a knack for writing some of the most emotionally unstable divorced men ever lol
Chuck is okay with deception as long as he's the architect.
CHICANERY!
Probably appreciates that Jimmy’s able to keep it going with all his “experience”.
pretty cool quote
Based
Rules for thee, not for me.
Jimmy was a pretty amazing brother in these scenes
And chuck isn't.
He really is man. He cared so much about his brother, it wasn’t fair
Good brother, shit son
@Ama dou Chuck got exactly what he deserved.
@@mr.exposition How do you know though? We only know what Jimmy was like according to Chuck and ONE flashback.
Jimmy was kind of on the edge about everything but his love for his brother. Which is why it ultimately broke him. He unconditionally loved him and went out of his way for Chuck constantly
and Chuck not only didn't appreciate this but also wanted to destroy Jimmy career (chuck didnt want him in HH, his own brother...)
the greater the love, the greater the hatred
Chuck the Lawful Snake doesn't deserve love. Chuck was a psychopath.
@@123shade123 because Jimmy always resorted to being Jimmy and Howard knew it. Even after becoming a lawyer he was breaking ethical rules when retaining clients in the Sandpiper case. Chuck knew what he was doing. And HHM is Howard’s office. His baby. He’s just going to let Jimmy waltz in knowing his propensity for shady behavior and destroying whatever he touches?
Really??
@@SchoolboyJonze2maybe, but it’s also definitely not as simple as “chuck was right about jimmy all along but nobody believed him”
They don't come out and say exactly why they divorced, but this scene makes it clear that Chuck is unable to be honest to Rebecca about his problems, so he shuts her out and reacts in ways that seem completely bizarre to her. Jimmy really tried to show him that he could choose to be better, but Chuck couldn't let go of his fucked up pride.
There's also a hint of Chuck being oversensitive and having to be right in this scene. Although Jimmy mentioned that Chuck's "hypersensitivity to electricity" appeared around the same time they divorced, Rebecca's presence didn't stop Chuck from experiencing his "symptoms". I often wonder if Rebecca's passion to her music and travel factored in the divorce if Chuck's passion in law prevented her from following hers.
I always figured they loved their careers more than their marriage.
Pride? you mean embarrassment? who would be proud to be allergic to electricity
@@BhlackBishop Chuck is the kind of person to feel a need to always be in control of themselves and maintain an image. If Rebecca knew he lost complete control of himself he thinks she would think less of him. He still wants her love and respect, not pity. They are still in love with each other.
@@daniellewis2133 "he thinks she would think less of him"
.....so embarrassment.
It's hilarious how oblivious Rebecca is. Jimmy is literally screaming her name in a panic in her ear, and she just holds her finger out at him. And Chuck is flailing around in front of her at his sink.
Maybe that’s why the divorce happened. Problems with communication.
@@matthewriley7826 Probably not the first time Chuck threw a tantrum in the house for being ignored.
To be fair, I had never heard of Chucks "condition" before ever seeing the show
@@user-fp3yc9hm6mthat is totally not what happened in this scene...
@@Infamous_Val_05 It's not, it's closer to a schizophrenic breakdown. But since Chuck's ego is too big to admit he's unwell, to Rebecca he just looked like he was throwing a tantrum.
Judging by Chuck's later tantrum breakdown in the courtroom, which btw was not triggered by electricity at all, it's safe to say that his psychosis is more of a coping mechanism his mind created to apologize for his ego.
You gotta love how adamantly against dishonesty Chuck is, except when it benefits him like here or entrapping Jimmy into committing a felony
Chuck is a compulsive liar
And ironically it’s Jimmy, the usual master of deception, who advocates him just being honest here.
"no wonder rebecca left you, what took her so long"
Subtle detail but when Rebecca says she can’t believe Jimmy is a lawyer and how responsible he is, Chuck only agreed he can’t believe he’s a lawyer either and then he’s got his own thing running. This points to that final conversation between Chuck and jimmy
It's like when Jimmy first showed Chuck he passed the bar, Chuck's first words were, "Is this a joke?" Jimmy first took this to mean he was proud, not realizing that it was most certainly in a negative connotation.
@@IamCanadian3333 Contrast to Marco. "Holy crap, Slippin Jimmys a lawyer. No wonder you wanna go back, you gotta be king of the desert driving round town in a white caddy making bank". He though he was ripping off old people but the second Jimmy told him he was legit, Marco believed him and immediately assumed he was successful.
@@IamCanadian3333 Even his face showed his true feelings. A mixture of shock and dread that conveyed “this cannot be!”
Better call Saul's amazing.
Couldn't Chuck just excused himself to the bathroom while Rebecca was on the phone?
He couldn't think clearly in that state.
@@bart9522 makes sense
Going from what happened in this scene, she’d probably follow him into the bathroom
maybe he really did think she was being rude
@@BH-98 why?
man he's really tryna hold that fart in huh
This is the moment chuck became Hector salamanca
@@pizzibarbarodellamaremma3179 and then Charles McGill turned into chuck Mcgrilled
This the moment chuck turned into a fart
Flatulence? More like Flatubravovince

Michael McKean should have won an Emmy. Has a beautiful tenor voice too.
Such a hard role to play convincingly

At 2:07 it's so clear that Jimmy is so happy seeing Chuck happy. Unfortunately Chuck was rarely happy seeing Jimmy happy.
Why it hurts so much when Chuck destroys Jimmy with, “You never mattered all that much to me”
It’s so sad
Jimmy was the only guy on this earth who really understood and loves Chuck
Howard
Nigel Tufnel loved him.
"It's incredibly bad manners to answer the phone in company." Boy would he love today's society lol.
Yeah and my first date which was exactly a week ago and I'm 22, she pulled her phone out and said sorry she's expecting a text from her boss about if she worked at a certain time. I said it's all fine. Not grab it and "Chuck" it out of her hand lol.
Honestly I still find it pretty rude.
@@raw_riot_6917 oohhhHHHH I see what you did there.
@@goldengoodra2941 Same here, honestly it makes me super uncomfortable to do, especially say I’m in any 1on1 situation. Uber, out eating, and so on.
Although I don’t find it too rude, say there’s a group hanging out. Say like watching fights.
I hope I don’t hold it against others though, as it’s just part of the society im in today. As it’s not just the individuals decision, it’s the ones contacting them too, be it work, medical stuff, a friend/family thing.
@@goldengoodra2941 It's in fact worse today than it was twenty years ago. At least back then people would answer their phones for an urgent call, not to watch TikTok.
Look at Jimmy being happy for Chuck and Rebecca...Jesus, how things fell apart...
"Excuse me." (leaves room, presumably to restroom)
Chuck is supposed to be insanely intelligent and yet he somehow can't think of this lol
It's VERY rude. He didn't want to hurt people's feelings.
His “condition” impacts his thought process like in the hospital he’s catatonic for a while.
because his condition isn't about electricity. Every time he has a crisis it's because something is making him insecure. He can tolerate the presence of electricity when he's scheming. But add something that gnaws at his confidence at the same time and boom. Instant crisis.
When he (SPOILERS)
.
.
. had that final crisis that ended up with his house on fire, he had removed every possible source of electricity, and still he couldn't be at ease. It was the exchange he had had with Jimmy. He couldn't face the fact that Jimmy still cared for him and could possibily be a good person, and that thought broke him.
That is the difference between smarts and "street smarts."
@@dashx1103he def had some street smarts with the tape recorder
It made me laugh when Rebecca followed them into the kitchen
RUN !
chuck is wrong in alot of ways but how tf did Rebecca not realize something was wrong 😂 man was literally dying for breath
But I don't think allergy to electricity is something that comes to mind
Well if it helps her case, he didn't react to the phone until he heard it ring. Which in hindsight proves his illness is completely in his mind.
@@moathelbakary7698 @parkerboy795 yeah he actually didn’t have an allergy but can’t she tell that he is having a mental break down if Jimmy can too?
She's his ex. With all we've seen of Chuck, I'm sure the months or years leading up to the divorce saw plenty of bizarre behavior if not scenes making a big deal out of something insignificant. So she sees "There he goes again" instead of "something's really wrong."
@@rickygutz8427 Not if she doesn't know what's wrong with him.
The McGill brothers really do marry far up. Rebecca and Kim are both talented, understanding, and gorgeous women.
Don't pretend that Jimmy isn't good-looking himself.
And Rebecca married a highly successful lawyer. I think she married up
The McGill rizz
Chuck is literally a genius, and he's loaded. She's an incredibly cultured and accomplished classical musician. I thought the pair made a lot of sense.
Well the difference is that Rebecca doesn't damage her lungs by smoking. Kim does
Jimmy tried so damn hard to help Chuck. If Chuck would have given in an OUNCE on his hatred and perception of Jimmy, believed even for a second in his capacity for change, the whole BB universe would have been different.
Anyone noticed chuck touching his ear trying to signal Rebecca he was uncomfortable with Jimmy being there? 😹😹😹😹
What? The Carol Burnet thing? Cuz she missed it again😂.
You know it's hard when you love someone that should love you back and they don't. Siblings are the worst. They know your strength's and weaknesses. They know what cuts you. Jimmy only did what he knew how to do to make Chuck proud of him. All Chuck ever did was push him back down. An angry brother over parents that loved Jimmy more than Chuck. There was no love or respect of Jimmy just a tolerance. In the end it ultimately left Jimmy dead inside. We ended up with Saul Goodman, but Jimmy died with Chuck.
He returned to life in the last episode.
Hmm yes full circle open endings
i would usually agree with you but considering what Jimmy did in Davis and Main it's clear that he would never really be able to change from the get-go. Charles did the right thing by not allowing Jimmy to work for HHM because he would just cause one disaster after another.
Pit yourself in chucks shoes too, your brother is a lifelong conman, has been in trouble more than once, and is very insincere. You'd think that he's passed the bar to pull more schemes and cons, which ultimately he really does, he tried to get new clients by scamming them like a year after becoming a lawyer?
Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but Chuck doesn’t even crack a smile at Rebecca’s joke about only seeing “the concert hall and the Marriott.”
4:17 I’m sorry but this is hilarious 😂
It’s very odd that Chuck never thought to have kids. He’s been married to her for years, yet he divorced her so she could go on with her career. Obviously they had some problems, but they really cared for one another. Not having kids would mean time off work, and obviously he would never stand for that. I also have a hunch is that he feared the kid would love Jimmy more than him.
Chuck though couldn’t change, or stand the fact Jimmy became a lawyer and thus Chucks condition actually started. His betrayal of Jimmy when denied to work as a lawyer at his firm was straw that broke the camels back for his mental health.
Not being able to change, or come to terms with your issues can cost you everything, and Chuck is a victim of his inability to change.
Ironic the more you think about Breaking bad as a whole. It was about Walters change, and we all thought it would be the same for this show, but it isn’t. It is not about change, it’s what happens when Nothing changes. Absolutely brilliant show.
"He'll never change, he'll NEVER change!"
~ Chuck shouted about Jimmy during his court breakdown
Chuck was so critical of his brother never being able/willing to change (and I do agree that Jimmy should change certain things about himself) that he didn't look at himself in the mirror and realize that he, too, also needed to make changes.
It's also possible they just didn't want kids. Some people don't. We parents have a name for people like that: "lucky bastards."
@@themask8221 He was projecting
"It’s very odd that Chuck never thought to have kids"
why is that odd, a lot people don't want to have kids. and we never heard why they got divorced
Yeah, not having kids is not odd. Chuck is odd for plenty of reasons but not that.
This is the moment chuck tries to hide his condition from Rebecca. Absolutely chilling.
Amazing writing. Bravo Vince.
Vravo Bince!
that is the name of the video yes
3:27 That face you make you hear your brother defecated through a sunroof.
it's like he was method acting
Or while defecating yourself.
The irony of Chuck hating Jimmy so much is that his hatred is exactly what fueled Jimmy's descent into full Saul Goodman. If Chuck had just shown a little love and pride towards Jimmy, he 100% would have ended up a normal attorney living a quiet "respectable" life.
This is the moment Walter Jr. was eating breakfast
Yawn
Bb and bcs fans trying to be funny challenge (impossible)
This is the best show. Script is beyond perfect.
and just think theres a future drug king pin grading chemistry papers while jimmy is trying be a wingman for his bro…
By saying this you are doing what every opponent of Walter White did - underestimating him. He is not just some highschool chemistry teacher, he is extremely overqualified chemistry teacher, probably close to genius IQ lvl. He could have been a billionaire if not for his ego issues.
@@8461529 is this walter white's burner?! are you alive?
@@8461529 walter?
Or scrubbing out tires for Bogdan.
@@8461529 Yeah, he could have, but he wasn't. So he was grading papers.
the address for his house being confused for power bill is great foreshadowing to his 1216 rant later in the episode
You know what caused Chucks condition and his death? Karma👌. Karma for his resentment towards his brother and the constant chicanery.
This is the moment when Rebecca passes the bar
Watching Jimmy in this scene brakes my heart, he knows that his brother hates him and still having the emotions to take care about him.
Hopefully, we seeing happy ending for ( Jimmy, Saul, Gene )
That was a flashback before Jimmy found out that Chuck doesn’t think of him as a serious lawyer
Yeah this is supposed to be way before he finds out Chuck was working against him. But he still did help Chuck a couple times, after finding out. In a way I know how it feels to know your brother dislikes you. My brother absolutely refuses to be in my life, or speak to me. I feel as though he hates me. But, if he called needing my help, I would still be there for him. Because family means everything to me. It always has.
You still want a happy ending?
More like bittersweet ending We need for Saul, his Saul reputation is tarnished just like Howard’s. So I don’t know what sad thing will be coming for Saul.
Unfortunately as we’ve seen with Nacho, Mike, and Howard, not everybody gets a happy ending….
Imagine living in this generation in Chuck's condition. Oh Boy.
Mentally Ill? Yah people got that covered now lol
@@wiskyr6510 Like being allergic to electricity or whatever that is.
@@jeremiahhester6408 bro, it’s a mental illness. It’s not a real physical disease.
@@zorinzorinzorin5243 I know.
@@jeremiahhester6408 sorry, your comment about allergies made me think you didn’t understand.
This is edited so well
Can you upload the other scene where the three are having dinner, and Rebecca is laughing about Jimmy's lawyer jokes?
You gotta really feel for Chuck; Incapable of having a normal life
His choice to be so filled with hate.
He’s an a-hole, so he deserves it.
His problem isn't even a medical condition, it was his choice to live like that. It developed around the time Jimmy got his law degree, so I guess his "condition" is related to his hate towards his brother. Judging by what went on, he was right about Jimmy in a lot of ways, but his attitude was wrong. Older brothers usually play father figure on younger brothers, like what we see in a flashback scene where Charles is reading some book to Jimmy. As an older brother he should have been supportive and smart about his relationship with Jimmy.
@@8461529 Chuck was like a god to Jimmy. If his brother just cared for a second about Jimmy, Saul wouldve never existed. That whole cutting corners thing couldve been avoided if Chuck helped with Jimmys career instead of sabotaging him. Chuck deserved everything
Naaaah... It's all because of his hate towards Jimmy.
I re-watched season 1 of Better Call Saul and Chuck is totally insane. It took me to see the first season twice to get it.
What?
It's weird that in this scene Chuck actually seems to show some pride in Jimmy being a lawyer. I wonder if some of his anger/frustration from the collapse of his relationship with Rebecca was instead channelled towards Jimmy as he was the easiest target, whom he already had some contempt for
Not pride. He just said he can’t believe Jimmy is a lawyer. That’s all he commented on.
Genuinely can't fathom how you took that as him being proud
that’s honestly just an insult
He puts on a “mask” when around other people, to pretend that he’s proud of his screwup brother, while hiding his true feelings.
This show really illustrates the two endings for narcissists or people with npd face. 1.They either get some sort of help or self awareness that allows them to see they are the reason for all the declines in their life and change or 2. Push everyone away with manipulations designed to inflate their ego until they are alone in the end
Chuck was hardly narcissistic IMO
@@ClintonKE he literally let his hatred for Jimmy drive him insane
@@alfobootidir2474 How is that narcissism?
@@ClintonKE instead of admitting he was wrong about Jimmy he tried to burn him to the ground, which in turn burned himself and in the end helped push Jimmy further down that path.
Jimmy was no saint but if Chuck had admitted at least to himself he might be wrong things probably would have been better for both
Chuck was not a narcissist. And neither was Jimmy. This label is too loosely embraced by people in today's world.
I had no idea Rebecca was Ann Cusack! The older sister of Joan and John! CRAZY!
I'm pretty sure it was John in a wig and makeup. "Ann" is a pseudonym.
I was thinking that she looked familiar!
The thumbnail is so perfect- it looks like the 'condition' he's trying to hide is a massive fart, lmao
Are you from New Jersey or Chicago?
Has a face like he's about to reenact the diarrhea scene in dumb and dumber lol.
💀💀💀
I just realise a lot of the problems between Chuck and Jimmy's relationship could have been solved if both people were just honest and direct about how they feel. Chuck was never vulnerable about how he felt less loved by his parents than Jimmy. He never shared how upset he was with mom's last words in her deathbed. He never opened up to his wife about how he feels insecure and jealous about Jimmy's charisma. Instead he bottled up all his vulnerable feelings, and eventually it manifested into hatred for Jimmy. He used this hatred to make sure Jimmy never reaches the same level as him, which is a well respected lawyer.
That's probably how it goes for most things in life though ... things work out a lot better with complete honesty, but everyone struggles with vulnerability
All in his head. Chuck wasn't well.
I hope we get another Chuck / Rebecca scene in the final episodes
The thumbnail is crazy work 😂
I've had to watch more scene of this show through my fingers than most horror movies.
In the thumbnail it looks as if Chuck is having the mother of all constipations.
Or bowel movement.
Like he's defecating through a sunroof.
I love the comment section! Each and every comment is so full of insights!
Man!!! I wish I had a Brother like Jimmy.
Chuck is a pleaser the reason he acts this way to please Rebecca is because hes looking for love just like how he looks for love with his mother his mother but she called for Jimmy instead of Chuck so that's why Chuck is jealous and this is what this whole scene stems from!
yeah my moms take as well was that its all rooted in the idea that their mother liked Jimmy more than him
Something I've noticed is how differently chuck and Rebecca are talking about jimmy becoming a lawyer. Rebecca's "I still can't get over jimmy being a lawyer," practically comes with an unspoken "good for him" at the end. Meanwhile chuck is speaking from complete contempt.
My dyslexia made me read the title as "CHUCK TRIES TO HIDE HIS CHICANERY FROM REBECCA"
That made me chuckle so hard XD
Chuck's "condition" is psychosomatic, right?
Yes. They make a point on numerous occasions of demonstrating that he doesn’t notice electronics until he becomes aware of them and they also demonstrate that his perceived physical conditions become worse in response to emotional stress and anxiety rather than any physical cause.
@@adamseidel9780 Thanks, Adam.
@@adamseidel9780 Also, he thinks he feels it when he's obsessing over the meter, but the numbers don't actually change at all, meaning there was no current in the house.
100% psychosomatic!
Yep. In real life medical professionals also have refused to classify this sensitivity to electricity as a real condition and it's offended many people that claim to have it.
"Incredibly bad manners"
Just go to the bathroom, a locked room away from the phone for a few minutes
I've never seen someone imitate a rat as well as Chuck in the thumbnail
Maybe Peter Pettigrew
Lol!
I didn't notice this before... the look of disappointment on his face when she says how the place hasn't changed one bit.
Chuck definitely chucked it
Thumbnail is extremely cursed
Thumbnail pic is Chuck's expression when he learns that Rebecca did not pass the bar
Imagine someone who has never seen this series watching this scene
Rebecca was proud of Jimmy, Chuck was embarrassed of him
I love the lil brother and ug brother diolog
that thumbnail is hilarious

He looks like a crooked southern preacher and/or sheriff in the thumbnail.
hell yeah
Ah, the days when people kept their cellphone far away from them unless it was ringing...
Thumbnail looks like he either smelt or dealt one very STANK fart
His plight really hurts
maybe if he told her it could've saved chucks life
Jimmy messed up by not leaving him after season 1 like Rebecca.
Funny how in the background there's the ELECTRIC LAMP that later burned Chuck's house down, right behind Jimmy on the kitchen counter.
I just saw a similar wicked piece of foreshadowing in S1 before Chuck calls Hamlin to cut Jimmy out of the Sandpiper case. He has **that lantern** in front of him and sort of shoves the table away from him. It's a gorgeous pre-echo.
It’s a gas lamp, that’s the whole reason it burned his house down
@@fort809 I mean, electric stuff can still rely on gas to burn. We have old heaters at my part-time job that work like that :>
It's definitely a gas mantle camping lantern, a classic model with no electrical components.
Rebecca following him around was kind of funny, tbh...
Thumbnail looks like Chuck is suffering from hyper-sensitivity to electricity.
turns out , Chuck's " condition " Is In his head -what Irony
Ah what,he will fine...just remove the battery.
At least it was a dumb phone
Whats this "HAH" at 0:31
