I like how Howard’s wife basically got the whole script of BCS
Well only the parts about Howard.
Bravo Vince
They, they’ve been switched. Somehow she switched them.
@@nont18411 "I KNOW she switched those scripts! As if I could EVER make such a mistake, NEVER! NEVER! I just couldn't PROVE it!"
After finishing the script she’s like “ Who’s Tuco?”
It actually really hit me hard when Kim pointed out there are no surviving witnesses. Besides her and Jimmy, pretty much everyone is dead at this point.
I wish they'd had a tiny scene where they go back to the laundry basement and do radar or something and someone makes a phone call saying they found 2 more skeletons.
Just like Walt Jr
It’s sad to think about. Like every main character in both shows is dead. Only Saul, Kim and Jesse survived. We spent the whole show watching Mike’s journey with Gus and the cartel and then it cuts to the future and literally all of them are long dead and forgotten about. None of them matter anymore. All of them taken down by a loser chemistry teacher with cancer.
@@coolwarren5289Skyler, Marie and Walt Jr
@@coolwarren5289 Who you calling a loser lil bro?
I just realized... Kim mentions Mike in her letter, so if this gets public, kaylee and his mother would know the horrible things that he did...
His name is already out there even if he was never charged or a body found. He was a direct associate of both Gus and Walt and was paid by the company that fronted their operation.
They will know Mike went on a trip to Belize.
I believe Jesse's tape was already revealed to the public, or at least Marie will give her testimony to the DEA about what Jesse had told Hank and Gomez
So everything, including Drew Sharp's murder and Mike suspected to be murdered by Walt(In the DEA's POV), should already be revealed
@@geordiejones5618 Kaylee would never search for those informations, unless she became a detective or whatever
@@joelluiz8802 this kinda makes me want to see a spinoff of adult kaylee trying to find his grandfather only to finds out what he did in the past
4:20 She says "Assuming he's still alive". Kim knows Jimmy is alive, so she's not betraying him. In the previous scene she got confirmation from Jimmy that Lalo, Mike, and Gus were all dead. This gave her free reign to clear her conscience and clear Howard's name without threat of death.
Gene’s probably going to try to contact the vacuum repair man, but get caught. Then he will try to negotiate his way out of jail time, but will ultimately take the fall to protect Kim.
@@DoBap_ Kim is confessing now. Doubt she would run away.
@@koopasteve Kim isn’t happy with her life in Florida, and still loves Jimmy. She met with Cheryl not with the intention of getting caught, but to offload her guilty conscience, and provide Cheryl with some closure. She’s going to run, aiming to find him to start a new life with him, but the police will catch up and take them both.
@@DoBap_ she said that she turned in her confession to The authorities within this very video
Saul doesn't know Lalo is truly dead he just assumes it
On a monopoly board the next stop after "Waterworks" is, GO TO JAIL.

I guess 20 years in the can might be better than 20 years of "YUP! YUP! YUP!"
she seemed to be loving it
@@ericsnow2069 NYUP!
I understand that she had to get with a dense fella so as to not arise suspicion, but did she seriously have to choose Don Watchell Jr?
More like 5 years before Kim hits menopause
She compromised and had grilled cheese off da radiator
You gotta love the irony of the fact that the only people trying to clear Howards name is his ex wife who the morning of his murder couldn't have acted colder and the one that pushed to frame him as an uncredited drug addict for giggles
This show does a great job at making supposedly shitty people feel human. Howard's wife might've been cold to Howard, but that was her husband. She's not letting that go.
@@whatno3145 It's very likely a case of "you don't know what you've got till it's gone" too. Suddenly he is vanished from her life, dead. And suddenly all of the problems between them, the voids created by isolation and disdain, the amount of fights they had, all of that is meaningless now. It seems so silly now and she likely harbors immense guilt for treating him the way she did, and she would do anything to go back and change the state of their relationship at the time of Howard's disappearance. But of course, she can never go back.
It can happen to anyone of us, don't hold resentment against people you love, one day you may horrifically find yourself in Cheryl's position and you will understand the dreadful regret.
@@Xpwnxage Basically it is precisely for this reason that I disrespect even more all those people who, once there is no turning back, would like to do so. It's too simple to show yourself good and kind when it's too late and expect no one to point it out because it would be "tactless". Howard's wife, however, remains cold towards her husband, in fact all the words spent on Howard are only to attack on Kim, threatint her of taking everything away from her. I believe that Cheryl is also trying to "get even" with Kim because perhaps she blamed herself (this is my speculation) for her husband's (presumed) drug addiction, and may have had doubts about having isolated him and not supported him in his time of need and that indeed, she left him in the coldest solitude while continuing to take the benefits (remember the breakfast scene where Howard tries to make her something nice and she, without worrying about anything, pours it into the cup, dirtying the table).
Maybe, if Howard hadn't died, they would have divorced: again in the breakfast scene you could guess that she has a lover waiting for her in the evening.
That what happen when someone you love dies on bad terms. I’m sure she made sure it wasn’t her fault if he unalived himself
I was thinking the same thing. Nobody really has a right to be the righteous one in this situation. Everybody treated howard like shit. But at the same time his wife has the right to be angry even though they argued
This scene makes me so happy tbh. Howard deserves justice and for his good name to be cleared of the horrible smokescreen that Kim set up at his funeral and this helps start the path to exactly that as she was one of the last 2 confirmed people to see him alive.
I'm glad that Kim hasn't leapfrogged the events of Howard's murder in an attempt to use mental gymnastics to avoid admitting her responsibility in his death but is instead doing the right thing, telling the truth and accepting all consequences (including possible prosecution) no matter what comes in stark contrast to Jimmy who still refuses to confront his feelings and instead chooses to put up a front either as Saul Goodman or Gene Takavic and run away from them (literally and figuratively).
I'm really glad that there's at least a little bit of a positive to his ending with Cheryl knowing the brutal truth about what happened to him on that fateful night and knowing that he was a good, pure man untouched by drugs to the end. This gives me at least a little bit of MUCH needed closure on the character of Howard Hamlin so that he can rest a bit more peacefully and knowing that he wasn't absolutely screwed over in the end, I appreciate the hell out of it.
His body will never be found but at least justice will be done. RIP Howard Hamlin 🙏🏽 👔
Howard earned his fate. He flew too close to the sun and fell from grace.
Kim is a crippled little rata. What a legacy to leave behind
Howard's wife treated him like he didn't exist when he was trying to make peace with her by making her coffee. She comes off like she is so crushed about Howard's disappearance and possible death by suicide not for him but how it would reflect on her. She was already planning her life without him by divorce.
@@tl337 just because a relationship is ending doesn’t mean you won’t care if the other person dies or not. Especially in such a horrible way, with their reputation ruined. We don’t know what else went on between Howard and Cheryl, they had been married for years. Relationships are complicated.
This was the most cathartic scene in either show for me. Howard was a good man and what they did to him was so hard to watch. The truth being revealed here honestly made me cry some tears of relief, I got way too invested in this show, lol.
Howard was greedy and self-gratifying
Driving around in his luxury car and hoarding wealth while putting on an air of egalitarianism
Cheryl is the same, she was going to leave Howard but after his death it became advantageous to cling to his corpse. Cheryl is serving herself.
@@randbarrett8706 top tier bait
@@randbarrett8706 What an indirect way of saying "I'm jealous of everyone who has more than me" lol
Cheryl is so dumb. She would’ve known what happened to Howard if she just watched the first half of the season.
Kim literally handed her the script of the show and she still doesn't know where Howard's body is smh
So is Chuck. The proof he needed on Jimmy was to watch the episode of him swapping the numbers.
you're forgetting, this takes place in the early 2010s, she'd have to wait another 10 years for the episode to be released on television
@lolok6439 Fall 2010. In the Gene scenes, I see dates in October. A few weeks after Walt killed the nazis.
@@lolok6439 good point.
His wife waited 6 years with this tragedy. Kim telling her this late is still pretty shitty of her but better late than never i guess
If she had gone sooner Gus or the cartel would’ve done her in
Howard's wife didn't even like him though. He was sleeping in the guest house for over a year before he died and she rebuffed all his attempts to patch up the marriage.
@@NoFILanthropy98 Still, doesn’t mean she wouldn’t care though. Memories matter. I imagine being married up to this age, she and Howard used to shared their lives happily for some years.
What year is this supposed to take place ?
2010
Some justice at last for Howard…. Granted it’s not much and his body will never be found but hopefully this will at least clear his name and partially restore his reputation….. and even though Cheryl wasn’t the best wife to him she at least has some closure by knowing that she wasn’t too selfish to be ignorant of his fake drug addiction and that their collapsing marriage was the sole cause of his supposed “suicide”.
@@_devolve those were the bodies of the two men Walt killed when he came to the lab to save Jesse.
@@chrisroberts9847 Exactly. Folks need to realize that Howard hadn't even been conceived as a character back in BB
@@_devolve Those bodies were two of gus' thugs I'm certain. Lalo and Howard were under concrete.
@@_devolve They might get covered by even more concrete.
Unless they have equipment to see below the lab it’s unlikely they’ll find the bodies. They would have to dig about 10ft or more below the lab to find the bodies and it’s unlikely they’ll do that.
Kim facing the music is what I was hoping Jimmy was gonna do. I'm glad she owned up to her role in it though, she's my favorite character in the show along with Jimmy
I’m thinking Jimmy will ultimately reveal everything he knows to the authorities to give every victim from the BB/BCS universe closure.
The entire show was about how Saul was forced to be bad after being tread on by the elite. If gets convicted and imprisoned it will ruin the entire show.
@@kingstarscream320 I absolutely do not think the show is implying that Jimmy was forced to do anything. The show is about choices and consequences. Jimmy always had choices. One way or another he will have to face the consequences.
That’s weak , she needed to get over it and not drag down Jimmy.. Kim was weak
He does. He confessed to everything so he could get more time.
I wish the police had looked for more evidence about Howard's behaviour. Because when Jimmy drove his car in front of a restaurant, Howard was at a therapy session with his *psychologist*. In those moments, the psychologist was the only witness of Howard's true presence. Perhaps there would have been a chance to set everything clear.
Yeah but that would’ve had Howard rolling in his grave. Being exposed as “crazy” just like Chuck
@@PhillyLeotardo25nah Howard was better than that
She isn't suing for the money. She's suing because it's the only justice she is going to get. Kim isn't going to fight it
The moment when Howard's wife reads the document is completely inspired by the scene where Melfi reads the psychologist's text in the penultimate episode of The Sopranos, where she finds out why criminals go to therapy
You're so right. Right down to the extreme zoom in of each word.
This is exactly what I thought
O wow you're totally right... I drew parallel s to this episode with the Sopranos but for a completely different reason - Rhea's acting when she breaks down on the bus/shuttle thing is possibly the greatest acting I've ever seen, with the only competition being Edie Falco doing Carmela's breakdown at the end of Season 4 (when she finds out just how much Tony's been cheating on her). Hard to say which is better but I'm convinced those are the 2 greatest bits of acting in TV history 👏👏👏
They took the Happy birthday Mr President scene in BB from the Sopranos too
As a sopranos fan I noticed that right away
She didn't betray him. She suggested he's probably dead: "assuming he's still alive". She's somewhat protecting him while clearing her conscience.
I noticed that. I wonder what that means, honestly
@@thebestofthebest5724 it means that she didn’t want to let her know that she had a phone conversation with a wanted criminal a few days ago
Or in her mind, Jimmy is dead. All that's left is Saul/Gene.
@@thebestofthebest5724 She's hedging her bets. Kim's not stupid. Whether she wants to clear her conscience, or gain some perceived redemption, or show the world that she is "made of sterner stuff", she has thought this through from every angle.
Her last act of mercy towards him. Next episode, it's all on him.
No ONE saw Kim going back to Howard’s wife and telling the truth! Then meeting Jesse outside Saul’s office! Absolutely brilliant writing! Writers strike again! Pure Gold!
Vravo Bince!
Ya definitely did not expect a scene like this at all but it just felt right. Really felt good to see at least a little bit of justice for Howard.
So out of the box! No other major character has done this before, correct me if I'm wrong. There's no reason to do this, as Kim says there's no evidence.
@@ariadneschild8460 I know! And she’s probably right as well. Only way would be maybe if they catch Saul and he also admits to it to complete Kim’s redemption arc. The way that affected her and she held onto it for so long and to have that break down on the bus like that….. just so good.
@@donnypsycho the wife was right, they pretty much tortured Howard for "fun", poor Kim didn't think Howard would end up dead..
The "He didn't suffer" line reminds me of the "Justice" line from Mike's scene with Nacho's dad.
Both meaning well but not fully appreciating the that their morals are still compromised, despite how they try to justify themselves. Both Mike and Kim get a verbal beating down after this, and while it's questionable Mike had enough goodness left in him to really self-reflect on what Nacho's father was saying, I think Kim really takes it on board.
I think that's why Kim breaks down on the bus, this is the realisation she can't ever truly redeem herself for what she's done. She's permanently broken.
Wtf do you want them to say. They are trying to console people who lost a loved one. Should they instead break down in tears and apologize and beg for forgiveness to show how upset they are? This must be type of bullshit that u people watch in animes
@@nont18411 "He can't keep getting away with this!!!"
--Jesse Pinkman
Mike certainly did reflect on that. Remember - Mike lost a beloved son to a violent death, too. He had to have felt the stab of that last remark Nacho's father made. Because he knows he never really got "justice" for his son's murder, either; he only got revenge.
The difference is, Mike continued playing the game whereas Kim left the soon Howard had died.
Mike might not even have really understood what Ignacio's father said. His Spanish isn't very good. All he knew was that whatever it was, it was harsh.
Cheryl: “You gangster and your JUSTICE. You are all the same.”
When Saul met Marie, Marie mentioned that they found Hank and Steve's body on the hole that means Skyler told the DEA of the coordinations from Walt about their bodies and Marie felt relieved of it.
Meanwhile in here, no one know where Howard's body was. It's already been a skeleton since it's been 6 years. And even worse, Superlab has been burnt by Walt and Jesse. The only one who knows are Mike, Gus and Gus' men and they all dead.
She didn't betray him. She confessed and then covered for him by implying he might be dead. She still cares for him enough to protect him.
dawg this is just like the scene with the therapist in Sopranos
I thought the same thing lol
Which scene there was so many I forgot lol
Which one?
Howard's wife even looks like Dr. Melfi
@@yusukeurameshi6620 Dr. Melfi reading the study on how criminals use psychology to become better criminals.
Kim coming in with the redemption arc
I wouldn’t say that. She only called because gene really got to her that she hadnt confessed. It’s something his brother said: why feel sorry if your gonna do it again? Granted Kim feels that with Mike Lalo and everyone dead she can confess but still. Also she never says: “oh and I can try to find my husband. He’s alive so we can try to get the evidence.” But she’s still protecting him
@@bradhorowitz2765 Lol you just contradicted yourself in your own comment and proved that it is indeed a redemption arc for Kim. She doesn't need to throw Saul under the bus, she already told him he should turn himself in
@@bradhorowitz2765 She couldn't confess before because Gus and others would've killed her. She got confirmation from Jimmy they're all dead so now she can finally let it all out
@@comeatmebro8120 i disagree. when kim approaches howard's wife, she says that the da may not prosecute because lack of evidence, among that is lack of witnesses. Kim may confess but she has no idea where the body is.Jimmy she mentions may be a witness "if he is alive." We can assume this took place relatively shortly afer jimmy called. So she knows that with confidence that he is alive. and since she got a hold of francesca, she can try to pry his whereabouts or at least be honest that she she knows he is alive. In the end, kim still has her fatal flaw-her love for jimmy.
@@blankyfang2348 i agree thats a reason. perhaps a good one. and i said that in my comment. but does that excuse her? she left the game, and was in florida. recall that it took a long time after she heard jimmy was on the run and him confronting her about her hypocrisy to spill the beans. I doubt that had jimmy gone on a rant about how she was being condescending about confessing that she would have gone to the police. Its also worth noting that mike did tell them both that lalo wouldnt bother them ever again-granted she had little reason to believe mike.
Kim Wexler’s “I did it for me” moment
This and "I was having too much FUN!"
His body will never be found but at least justice will be done. RIP Howard Hamlin 🙏🏽 👔
Body destroyed and lab was burned. Not sure what they did with it after that point as I'm sure no one knew there were graves there.
I felt so much better after watching this scene. Despite not being a saint, Howard didn't deserve his career and reputation to be ruined like that.
At least he had some justice in the end, poor man
I wish we got more background on Cheryl and Howard’s relationship. As far as we’ve seen, Cheryl was very cold and distant to Howard, but changes her tune once Howard died. I think it would be important to know why Cheryl and Howard’s relationship was strained and if Cheryl’s intentions were good or not.
@@aeh5109 it’s not about the marriage being good or not, but rather did Cheryl truly care about Howard or is the grudge something more?
@@RandomOnePerson I honestly thought it was pretty shitty that cheryl only cared about Howard after he died.
My impression was that the marriage was fine until Chucks passing which lead to Howard’s deep depression and insomnia.
Yeah I don't really like her character all that much, she was being cold and dismissive when Howard was just trying to reach out yet we are supposed to feel bad for her when she all of a sudden cares about Howard?
@@Rios-_
People forget themselves in the anger and frustration of the moment during a strained marriage. The thought that she was maybe never going to see Howard again because he'd "commit suicide" probably never crossed Cheryl's mind while she was being a cold bitch with the hot coffee.
Next thing you know Howard and Lalo bodies would be found under the Super Lab after all this time.
It's not impossible. Given Saul connection to Walt and to Gus, it possible the police would search even the Super Lab over again. Even someone buying it at a police auction and digging in the ground should uncover the pair.
Not impossible but I still think it's unlikely. I think looking for Howard's body would be like searching for needles in haystacks. And there's not enough evidence for them to think " Oh let's check the impounded burned down underground meth lab". As far as the cops are concerned, Howard's body is more likely buried in the desert somewhere. All they have is Kim's statement and that's not really gonna push resources out for one half a decade old cold case that's already considered open and shut.
the whole lab is burnt, and possibly destroyed and bulldozed . . . so no
What do you mean buying it at a auction at the police station
@@tylermoeser9557 typically criminal property, like cars or furniture or appliances that were used in crimes or shoplifted/stolen.
Aren't they under like 10 feet of concrete?
That title can be interpreted in many ways
⚠⚠⚠
😭
This title makes it sound like Kim snuck off the reservation for a little dirty damp and deep with Cheryl
Just what I thought ngl
Well now I love Kim more than I did before
I don’t
I don't
This was the moment that Kim became a canary.
Chicanary
The title "Kim betrays Saul with Howard's wife" sure reads differently without context lol
Kim is trying to redeem herself. Seeing what Jimmy has become left her heartbroken and now guilt is the only thing that remains. She's ready to face the consecuences, doesn't mind if Jimmy does to, she wants him to but won't turn himself in, she just wants to do what she thinks is the right thing for her own good.
Your title is all wrong. Kim didn’t “betray” Jimmy at all. He told her to turn herself in. And she still protected him by saying she didn’t know if he was alive.
I have to say that there was only one thing throughout all this season that gave me real chills and goosebumps and that was the way that the producers made so close shots to the letters from 1:10 to 1:16, from 1:23 and 1:27, from 1:39 to 1:41 and from 1:53 to 1:55. Nothing else throughout all this season and the entire series caused me that creepy sensation than that.
Almost certainly an homage to the scene in The Blue Comet in Sopranos (which is also the penultimate episode of the series!) where Dr. Melfi is reading The Criminal Personality. The Sopranos scene has a similarly creepy/unsettling vibe to it, feels very kind of silent-horror ish. They even give Howard's wife the old Melfi bobcut for some reason
The title makes it sound like Kim and Cheryl had a sexual rendezvous...
Tf
Man , I wish we got to read Kim's full confession
The title looks intimate.
i REALLY want to see kim's written retelling of the events, even if its all info i already know, the way she write would give insight in her emotions and perspective with everything that has happened
Really great scene, the way she is reading the letter and how the editing is giving us the same feel as the character
Cheryl was wearing her wedding ring in the scene she was introduced and still now years later. Suggests that deep down she cared and still cares about Howard
"He didn't suffer" was a very dumb thing for Kim to say.
He didn't though. It was visibly a quick death. Unless you mean to his general life which is not what she was referring to.
@@thereccher8746 Surely Kim was referring to his quick death. But Howard's wife took it as referring to Howard's decline and fall - that's the whole trick here.
She came forward because Jimmy essentially said "You want me to turn myself in? Then you should too" she confessed because of Jimmy. She wouldn't have said anything if he hadn't called her. He confessed because of Kim. He wouldn't have said anything if Kim weren't in the courtroom.
_The lies you two made up, the picture you painted, that’s all he is now… that’s all that anyone remembers_ 😞
You know, seeing all the shit they did written out on that document really makes it hit home just how depraved, yet intricate this whole scheme was.
The title should be Kim looks for redemption
That title should be called "Too On the Nose"
@@DanJackson1977 he meant the video title, not the episode title
I agree, the current title is too suggestive. It should be "Kim gets down and dirty with Howard's wife behind Saul's back"
Or "Kim's Confession"
I prefer the real title "Kim's stinky toes in black and white"
For a wife who treated Howard obnoxiously, she suddenly seems to care a lot!
“You don't know what you have until you lose it.”
If I’ve learned anything in life: atonement is messy. This scene illustrates why most people try it, but don’t have the heart to feel that burn , but keep going until the burning turns into purification, like cauterizing a wound
The way they showed the letter is insane. Genuenly gave me goosebumps
"Betrays" Saul? LOLOLOLOL
I wouldn’t have labeled it this way, betraying Saul. She didn’t tell him she wasn’t going to confess. He egged her onto it?
Kim should have done this when they were investigating Gus before he died and before the meth lab was burnt down
Gus could have still sent for someone to kill her. And even then she had Saul and Mike to worry about they would have gone to jail too.
Rip
She could've, but knowing that it would uproot everything she worked for to have a "normal" life, probably restrained that guilt. It wasn't until recently when Gene told her that she's just as bad as him, is what prompted her to confess about what truly happened to Howard.
She didn’t know that it was Fring until his murder revealed his drug operation.
Why would she do that knowing that Gus could just send some guys after her or other people she cares about. When Gene confirmed that everybody who could threaten her life was dead, that's when she decided it would be a good time
Damn i want to read this whole thing
Kim cleared her conscience, but not for the right reasons. It was to make herself feel better. I think back to her comment about narcissists during the episode with the traffic cone. She's not compassionate nor empathetic. Yes, her tears on the bus are real, but not for Howard's family, reputation, or Legacy, it's about Kim. Perhaps PTSD, but she wouldn't have done it had Jimmy not called her with the FBI likely listening in.
Ironic because she said Howard did the same thing in season 4
I've always considered the resolution here to be very unsatisfying. And to be clear I don't mean that as a criticism I actually think it really works. The lack of any real catharsis for Howard makes it even more tragic what happened to him.
Maybe the cops think to dig up Gus' superlab and find Lalo and Howard it's not outside the realm of possibilities but most likely they aren't going to find Howard's body.
Saul is going to prison and his confession to his involvement in Howard's death was likely taken into account but even if it weren't Saul is still going to prison for the rest of his life for everything else he did. Because of that, it being a punishment for what happens to Howard feels like an afterthought.
Kim's only ever gonna be punished financially since the DA is likely not gonna prosecute. Her reputation may be ruined but she doesn't live in Albuquerque anymore so it's not like that's worth much.
The way it's set up robs you of any catharsis and sense that justice has been done. Howard's body will probably never be found, Jimmy's going to prison but it's mostly for everything else he did for Walt, and Kim may have confessed but it's not like anything substantial is gonna come of it outside of her losing money. Howard's reputation may be restored but it's a cold comfort knowing there's never really gonna be justice. And I think that narratively that works so well
This scene reminded me of a scene in the Blue Comet from the Sopranos, which was when Dr.Melfi was reading the anti social personality research essay
I’d hate to see Clifford Mains reaction to finding out what truly happened to Saul. He was one of the few innocent people in the show who was with Howard every step of the way while being sabotaged. He tried to get Howard help but didn’t believe Howard when he said it was Jimmy making a mockery of him.
The title is wrong because Kim didn't rat Jimmy out. In fact, she was protecting him by saying “assuming he’s still alive” instead of outright saying he’s in Nebraska
It's funny that she says she doesn't think they'll find Howard's body because they almost certainly are going to find Howard's body - his body is buried beneath a super lab that got burned down by the most famous drug lord in the country. If there's one place where they'll eventually find any bodies buried on the premises, it's beneath that laundromat. Given that they know Howard was killed by the Salamanca crime family, I wouldn't be surprised if they could positively ID him because he'd be one of the people whose dental records they'd run now that they know a Salamanca murdered him.
I think this is plausible. There would have been no point in them doing a deep search under the lab before; there wasn't an innocent murdered man to search for. Howard was a presumed suicide at sea, "several states away". Now Kim has submitted an affidavit that Howard was murdered, and furthermore murdered by Lalo Salamanca - himself a man wanted for multiple crimes including murder. There's a pretty good incentive to search the premises of that meth lab again now.
Damn I didn’t think about it like this, makes me feel a lot better about his justice
Wow anyone notice she still has her ring on ? Even after howards death she kept it on, she truly loved him
Or could be guilt, Howart aparenly killed himself. Maybe somehow she thought, she was in part responsable.
Kim is like Walter White coming back from Albuquerque to defeat Jack
Not even close.
@@stepha2642 based
This is the "I did it for me" scene on Better Call Saul
@@margarethmichelina5146 dude, I was looking at my video and right underneath is a dr pimple popper video. I read this while looking at that. I was like "what tf are you talking about?"
@@stepha2642 Actually, with all the countless parallels to BB, Kim is actually closest to Walt. Both of them quite reserved, but broke out of their shells and broke bad- then took it too far and ended up destroying other people's lives whilst feeling morally just about it in their own twisted ways until it was too late.A core difference of course is that Kim came back for redemption, whereas Walt doubled-down and accepted his dark side.
Judging from Howard's morning routine, Kim and Jimmy weren't the only ones Howard suffered from
Marriage problems happen, its not enough to antagonize Cheryl, she suffered more than she deserved. For years she thought Howard's death was partly her fault, i dont think finding out the truth made her feel any better
How the written confession didn’t land Kim up on charges escapes me.
This is the moment Cheryl became Chef Skinner from Ratatouille (2007)
actually she looks more like Linguini's girlfriend with that hairdo lol
@@sunsetman22 I was referencing the scene where Skinner opens the letter only to become increasingly more horrified the further he reads, not necessarily his appearance
Special commendation to the actress that played Cheryl, she has like 3 scenes but its a great performance, this one is great
"Kim betrays saul"
🤣
Let me Guess, are You a Skyler hater?
Public school?
Fanboy of real time criminals?
Exactly
"betrays" is a bit harsh
You can really see the regret in Cheryl for having bought into the image of Howard that Jimmy and Kim were manufacturing.
I dont know if im reaching or not but at 2:32, the lamp or whatever that is behind howards wife looks like howard himself.
3:11 Kim’s right. Lalo didn’t make Howard suffer, but Kim and Jimmy did
Kim literally stepping into the light at the start of this scene
The end cards touting your other videos, which cover the faces of these fine actors, are infuriating.
"Kim cheats Saul with Howard's wife" sounds better.
Hnng
Wut
He’s already a wanted man for doing much worse
this didnot go public. mike and gus would never let that happen.
wait just realised this happened after the breaking bad. forgot the black and white was from the future. heh.
I probably would have emailed it.
Given the title, I was expecting something else
something... better
Cheryl got to keep the house. Good for her!
Kim didn't betray Jimmy or anyone else by going to Howard's widow. At this point everyone on the criminal side directly or indirectly involved in Howard's murder and cover up is either dead, imprisoned or a fugitive. So Kim wasn't bringing anything information that was going to do further implicate or complicate anyone except for Kim herself. Hence one of if not possibly the only reason she didn't come forward with this information sooner.
This is a clickbait title if I ever seen one
Kim submitted an affadavit expecting to be tried, but that's not a certainty. She went to his estranged ex-wife and confessed but it's not certain if she'll sue. She's faced the music expecting swift justice, but it didn't come. She may very well get away with it.
@Trashcan Troubadour Bingo. She calculated as the fairer sex tends to do, once certain players were off the board she could come above ground with little consequence. No true accountability just some tears and in truth put Jimmy in the line of fire.
@@ericsnow2069 Jimmy’s already in the line of fire for reasons completely unrelated to what happened to Howard and is still covering for him in a sense by saying “assuming he’s still alive.”
@Trashcan Troubadour pretty sure Gus/Mike wouldn’t be too happy if she sang like a canary right after they covered it up. It’d put not just herself but Jimmy in danger as well.
@@ericsnow2069 Didn't the unfairer sex (Jimmy/Gene) give her the idea that she could come clean?
@@skatefan9495 If you can't see he expressed that idea solely in frustration whats the point in us debating. Kim nor Jimmy truly feel sad about their actions or who they hurt. Jimmy does a better job of acknowledging his dissonance and moving on. That is not all men but most men. Kim made moves to help herself feel better. Whether it was to divorce Jimmy during worse times or to go tell the truth to Howard's wife. She calculated there would be no consequences; from the law, from cartel and she has nothing worth suing over. Now she can go find Jimmy and give him some of that banged out......yep
I am kind of glad, even if I like Kim as a character, that she didn't get off the hook here.
Somewhere, in the same city this scene takes place. Skylar, Walter Jr. and Holly are enjoying the money from Gretchen and Elliot’s charitable donation.
good 👍
Glad howard name was cleared.
But he's still dead. His body will not be found and what is left of his firm may be gone at this point
Question - how long after BrBa is the Gene timeline?
Howard is probably hugging Lalo in a dark hole somewhere for finally getting some justice.
Kim had way more courage than the great Heizenberg. She found resolve to look her victim in the eyes and face her admonition. She was not afraid of shame and humiliation.
"he didn't suffer" yeah he didn't suffer my ass
He was at the lowest point of his life, and only to be met with a terrible fate
I was expecting a scene where a builder finds Lalo & Howard's bodies after reconstruction on the burnt lab.
I imagine Howard’s widow must feels extreme guilty.
4:35 we can see that Kim is now using "Yep" instead of "Okay"
First few seconds: Kim waits for Howard’s wife to invite her to seat; realizes this ain’t gonna happen but still this would take toi long to stand; so decides to sit but picks the further most chair.
“Betrays Saul”
I'd probably have to watch Breaking Bad again, specifically the Season 4 finale, but is there a chance the bodies of Howard and Lalo could be found beneath the lab?
Good thing it's been six years since 2004, because it turns out the statute of limitations for defamation in New Mexico is three years, meaning that Cheryl's threat to take everything from Kim has no standing.
The title out of context is going to throw someone off if they haven't seen the 6th season yet.
Why does she ask “Howard was murdered?”…lady, you just read that he was shot in the head.
She cleared her guilty conscience
To make things right, Kim would do whatever it takes to make it right. Even if it involves paying someone for life.
