Mike didn't throw the guns away. He kept them in the garbage bin because he knew 'trevor' would be on the ground for a while and he didn't want people to see him lying there and surrounded by 10 guns. Mikes expects 'trevor' to fish those guns out of the trash once he's fine
'Trevor' is dumb enough that he probably didn't even look in the trash can next to him.
@@elbruces Can't agree more
I fucking love the twist on Hamlin, his character playing a character, just to not hurt Jimmy.. brilliant.
I never hated Hamlin because I see nothing wrong with wanting to be professional but it is an awsome twist to realize that he is actually a great team player taking all the hate to help a partner with a personal matter. He went from character I dont mind to character I really like and respect.
Hamlin is one of my top favorite characters in this show. So misunderstood.
The actor is great too. “An iron fireplace apparatus” is my favorite line in the whole show.
I agree although he did Shaft Kim Wexler pretty bad, and didn’t step in to help one of his Best associates.
@@masterzombie161
I suspect the Hamlin / Kim dynamic is one of those "I'm harder on you because I see potential" kinda things, though I'd like to hear him actually say it at some point.
He still hurt Jimmy he might try to minimize it the way he could, i think he was trying his best to keep the brothers together.
The Chuck and Jimmy dinamic is very interesting, Chuck isn't wrong about Slipping Jimmy but he never really gave Jimmy a chance...
Chuck created Saul.. he could have helped him.. Jimmy wanted to be a good lawer a stable one but Chuck pulling Jimmy back is what pushed him to become Saul more
@@sagar8538 Yeah if Chuck gave Jimmy the right support, Jimmy would have been just fine
The reason Jimmy even got into the case was because he saw old people being taken advantage of, and asked his brother for help who ended up backstabbing him anyways. If instead, he would have been offered a job and won the Sandpiper case while being able to see all the people he helped, along with feeling like he has a loving brother and support system like Kim around him 24/7, I find it much more unlikely that in those circumstances he would become Saul.
True, he had a good point about abusing the law being dangerous. People did get hurt, hell people died, all those times Saul helped Walt and Jesse stay out of jail.
@@matthewriley7826 True, but as the show goes on, Chuck is kind of guilty if that himself. Not lawbreaking exactly, but abusing the law for his own benefit.
Hamlin is just a guy running a practice and is stuck in this brother rivalry. Feel bad for him
True! He's under a lot of pressure and also under his father's shadow, and next to this mad giant that is Chuck. He's doing the best he can in a nearly impossible situation.
+Arthur Guillen Oh, you just wait
@@half-lifescientist1991 their mind will be blown

Trivia: the big guy in the scene with Steven Ogg is the guy driving the prostitutes in that scene in El Camino.
Every time Howard says "Can I have the room please?" you know some shit is about to go down
hahahahahahahahaaa. [SPOILER ALERT] Man but Howard is such a nice guy! I love his character. Even at the end of season 3 when he tries to let Chuck retire with all glamour and asks his employee to find a nice retirement party place before opening the letter just to see that Chuck is freakin suing him. WTF. Still the man agrees to cash Chuck out with his own personal funds and loans. And if all this wasn't enough, he's now got to live with the burden thinking Chuck killed himself because of him. And here even Jimmy does him no help (after the funeral, saying it's your cross to bear. JESUS SAUL) I really hope Howard is alive, well and happy in the Breaking Badverse. Maybe even in the Gene-verse!!!!
Why didn't he say that to Lalo?
Now it really begins. You start to see what makes Jimmy into Saul. Also... You guys are the only ones to point out that Jimmy had to work twice as hard and keep himself motivated to obtain that degree by himself. 👍👍
uh no? Jimmy doesn’t begin to truly turn into Saul until Chuck dies in Season 4, there’s hints of Saul in Season 3 but that’s it
The Jimmy vs Chuck plotline was one of the main pulls for me with this show.
@@ObaREX me too
@@wickrman1 Uh whut? I said starts to. Read carefully before you correct someone.
why the fuck would u just spoil it
So, there are a lot of really bad law schools around and a lot of them become an injoke among lawyers. An online course in the University of American Samoa is that taken up to eleven.
Really? I loved that line
Go land crabs!
Remember who Nacho's boss is... pissing off Tuco would, indeed, be very bad.
Breaking even
This was such a good episode. The B story with Mike was great because it showed what a badass he is and that even as a criminal he still has a moral code.
The A story with Jimmy was great because it was so revelatory. We found out that Howard isn't as big of an asshole as we thought, he's just been Chuck's hatchet man all these years. Plus we learned what an asshole Chuck has been to Jimmy. Yes Jimmy has a troubled past and he's far from the most honest man you're going to meet. But Jimmy was really trying to be a better person for Chuck. Hell, he became a lawyer just so he could be more like Chuck and win his approval. That's not even taking into account everything Jimmy did for Chuck all this time in taking care of him. But Chuck would never see Jimmy as anything other than Slipping Jimmy and even worse would never allow him to be anything else. That's a true fucking betrayal no matter what Chuck's reasons are. And this begins Jimmy's real descent into what will eventually be Saul Goodman.
Surprised no one noticed the big guy was the one who played the muscle of the escorts in "El Camino".
it's hard to remember but if they watch El Camino now, they could notice him there
He was hardly memorable.
Penfold 74 omg i didn’t realise
They barely showed him
it was easy for me. even seeing him years later.
Hamlins' character is so brilliant an easy scapegoat for the audience and Jimmy to hate without knowing who's really holding Jimmy back.
I don't think Chuck really believes that Jimmy isn't a real lawyer he just doesn't trust him to not abuse that power.
yeah i think that's what he really meant. He seems him as a con artist with a law degree.
11:30 that's how Walt started too, then 5 seasons later he was like "Say my name"
Spinoff about Price with a full beard,
"these...are not pills"...
@@mgoblue9389 " i'm in the pills buisness "
"PRICE."
"You're goddang right."
Back when I first saw this episode, I remember feeling like Chuck regretted his words. Just with the way he chased after Jimmy.
I feel like maybe the writers intended for Chuck to maybe have a soft spot for his little bro.
And maybe back then... he did on some level. But as the series goes on, his hate for Jimmy just grows.
Micki was right about something. He was jealous.
And I'm glad the group doesn't immediately dismiss Chuck as some evil guy (not yet). He did work hard and it DOES suck that his own mind has turned against him.
It's revealed in season four that Chuck graduated high school at the age of 14. That's CRAZY! Think of all that pressure that puts on a kid. And yet, he never felt like he was enough.
You say Chuck isn't wrong, but don't you think Chuck treating him the way he did and keeping him from being a legit lawyer had any impact on what he became?
The Normies said Chuck wasn't wrong because Jimmy becomes Saul later on. That is not how this works. Chuck does not know that. Up to this point Chuck just refuses to give Jimmy a second chance, which is a just a dick move.
@@morantNO1 saving his ass from jail wasnt giving him a second chance?
@@hankscorpio7767 Well, it is. But Chuck does not think Jimmy can change his nature and does not deserve a chance to become a lawyer.
@@morantNO1 if you think that you weren't paying attention. He just wanted Jimmy to prove himself first. Why should Chuck just hire Jimmy? Just because he's his brother? Jimmy was the one who felt entitled enough to expect a job right after passing the bar at a prestigious law firm just because it was partially owned by his brother instead of putting the work in like probably every other person who worked there, including Chuck himself.
@@hankscorpio7767 lol. You were not paying attention. He did work hard to prove himself at the office. Everyone was ok to hire him, even Howard Hamlin, who saw great potential in him. It was only Chuck who did not believe in Jimmy who stopped his chance of starting at HHM.
This episode is top 5 to this day
How could you stab your own brother in the back like that. I can’t even process that thought in my head.
Oh boy Chuck vs Jimmy is starting
Chuck doesn’t want jimmy to be a lawyer because he knows who he is and thinks he will perverse the law. He sees the law and justice as a high honor and thinks jimmy would make a joke of it
And he ultimately was right, seeing as where Saul was in breaking bad, he did exactly what chuck said he would, maybe if saul had actually been given a chance at HHM everything could have been prevented and he could have gone on the right path
@@alvarohernandez4557 Although even at this point in the show we've seen Jimmy bend the rules time and again, often without even thinking about it. He doesn't walk the line so much as carelessly meander along without any concern about whether he crosses it.
The best thing about Chuck is that you know he's completely right about Jimmy, but he's such a sanctimonious asshole that you can't help but hate him. He's a wonderful antagonist.
@@alvarohernandez4557 i think what happened was an effect because chuck believed thiat jimmy would become bad he did become bad and if he would have supported him maybe he would have been a lot better in the future
Khaled Yasser without a doubt if Chuck had supported Jimmy and given him opportunities to be a standup lawyer, at the very least he never would’ve turned into Saul Goodman. Chucks distrust and resentment was the driving force behind that change.
Steven Ogg playing Travor from GTA again
Yes
"The agreed upon fee is.... agreed upon." this shouldn't crack me up the way it does
Now the real drama begins
BTW the big guy in the Mike meet up is from El Camino. He guarded the strippers.
Steven Ogg also plays Rebus and Simon on "Westworld" and "The Walking Dead".
And Trevor in "GTA V".
And my dad in my nightmares.
"What kind of tie is he wearing?"
Barney: "IT'S CORNFLOWER BLUE!!!"
No8Named8Shadow Lmfao. Never thought I’d see a HIMYM reference in 2020.

I think people give Saul a lot of passes because he's likeabable or because his heart is in the right place. Chuck has about 30 years history telling him Saul is someone that likes to cut corners and trick the system when he wants something bad enough. For someone like Chuck that loves the law and doesnt see it as a game that isnt the kind of person you want to be lawyer or work with. And also not so long ago Saul proved he didnt change with the banner trick. Chuck isnt some asshole giving Saul a hard time. He's someone that has lived with his brother long enough to know the person he is.
He is not Saul. He's Jimmy.
But Jimmy was trying so hard to change throughout all of season 1. He had that slip up in the beginning with the skateboarders but after that he was trying incredibly hard to be on the up and up. Also the only reason he tried that scam with the skateboarders was because he desperately needed the money for him and Chuck. Season 1 Jimmy is trying to be a good person, but at every opportunity Chuck sabotages him because of his past. Had Chuck let Jimmy join HHM, he probably still would’ve cut corners here or there, but he never would’ve become Saul. Chuck created his own monster.
Thanks for the quick fix guys, all good.
You don't even need to know the future that Chuck was right. In this season alone Jimmy pulled Slippin' Jimmy at least three times
He's absolutely 100% right but he's still an asshole of a brother
Chuck just wanted to be right. He was trying his hardest to keep Jimmy being slippin Jimmy. It's all Chuck's fault.
@@mishaisbetterthanallIt is always others fault.
He does it because he likes it, because he is good at it. It makes him feel alive.
Chuck always knew what his brother was.
@@mishaisbetterthanall is "it's all Chuck's fault" the new "it's all Walt's fault"?
@@CatCubed That's the beauty of the show. As right as Chuck is about Jimmy, he's not pleasant about it.
Now the biggest twist in this whole franchise: Howard is the realest fucking bro
I was happy to see Trevor and Lester from GTA V on this show.
Chuck respects the law. Jimmy thinks of the law as a joke.
Passing the bar is one thing. Conducting your legal business after passing the bar is quite another. If Jimmy is hired by HHM (or any law firm) his "slippin'" actions put the entire firm in trouble. In a very real way, Chuck was trying to protect the firm.
It annoyed me how they kept going on about Jimmy passing the bar. Passing the bar exam is the bare minimum to practice law in a state. Lawyers who want to work for a top firm have to be much much more than that.
thanks for the reupload
Is that eren as your pfp?
@@tenthtennant8935 yes, I made that my avatar like 5 years ago and I'm too lazy to change it
I feel so bad for Jimmy in this episode
MIKE is the best character ever dudes.
love him.
the actor plays him so well.
I am gonna finish season 4 today and can't wait for you guys to finally catch up too. This shit gets intense.
Mike is THE Best
Chuck created Saul by not maintaining him
Thank you for the sound fix!
Good one as always
Mike owned the two biggest psychos in gaming
Start of them episode: Hamlin is a pig fucker
By the end: Hamlin's knitted tie is my new best friend.
It is a nice tie.
The actress who plays Stacey (Kayleee's mom) was really good in Rome. She played Atia's daughter, Octavia.of the Julii
Mike is like the Witcher of the BB universe
Viper school Witcher, maybe. Or Cat school...
As painful as that was, Chuck was ultimately right about his brother
Actor did great job
It was a self-fulfilling prophecy thanks to what Chuck told him. Jimmy had potential, but the absolute lack of faith and support from the figure he looked up to is what caused him to turn towards his own interests alone.
He wasn't right, Chuck turned him into this
@@andrewvillatoro4605 Was Chuck there when Jimmy tried to grift the Kettlemans into hiring him? When he took the bribe? When he spilled coffee on a police officer so his client could steal something from him? When he tried to enforce an injunction on Sandpiper without proper cause? When he went dumpster diving for their shredded legal documents? No doubt he's refrained from some especially bad behavior too, and no doubt Chuck's betrayal did more bad for Jimmy than good, but there's no question that Jimmy had a natural inclination to behave in ethically questionable ways even after his Slippin' Jimmy days.
@@GOffUnit Oh hell no I ain't reading all that.
You win.
Yep, audio's all good now! 👍
@9:11 this is funny because Bob Odenkirk himself in a Mr Show sketch expects this from David Cross when he becomes a partner at his firm.
Big body guard was in El Camino.
Body guard for strippers
Jimmy is a good bad guy, Chuck is a bad good guy. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. The new Jimmy is always doing bad things for a good reason while Chuck (we find out), often does the right things for the wrong reasons.
I just wanna say that I love your jumper!
Pimento is pepper. Pimento cheese is a cheese with said pepper. Pimento cheese dip is a thing.
Chuck was right he saw what Jimmy was becoming, just imagine if saul has the same amount of power as howard in breaking bad series, W.White would have been untouchable, as a drama they always show it from the perspective of main actor and all people whom are against him, who might've been doing something morally right on their part are seen as villians, in the end chuck was right about Jimmy, but he was wrong when he said people dont change
We back boys
This guy I loved him since GTA
Me too
Scooter brother
6:30 i love her laugh
I feel like Mickey is missing the point of the Chuck/Jimmy relationship. It's a nature vs nurture concept. Is it in Jimmy's nature to work in the morally gray areas? Yes.
Did he look up to and love his brother A Lot? Yes.
So could have actual positive reinforcement from Chuck kept Jimmy on a better path? There's a good chance, yes. We all know that's not how it goes. But I like how they show Jimmy actually had a good heart through this. *So it could have....*
holy shit micky noticing Steven Ogg was a cool moment
You guys should react to Twin Peaks. I know it's a weird one, but there aren't enough reactions to it out there.
There's no reactions to 24
Is Mickey gonna get a soundbite of that last thing Rana said?
10:10
That would’ve been sexual harassment, Howard seems too tightly wound and integrous to have tried some Weinstein shit.
Chuck knows who Jimmy is. Even the way jimmy started investigating this case was... questionable. But i think he could've show Jimmy the legal way to do the right thing, show him it'll pay off, work as a team legally, instead of hindered him right away.
2:27 (SPOILER)
Wonder if this is foreboding of Saul's LifeAlert downfall.
*H A P P Y N E W Y E A R !*
Ended the video with a good boi
Just... go get hannah, bring her here. I eat 1 meal a day here. Melvin Udall voice
Travor and Lester reunited
He takes that 5%
That disgusted behavior at the end just because Kash touched someone's pants was not cool. Other than that, good reaction.
she likes ties tho😁
18:01 oh god Rana is so funny😂
You're not a real scarer! University of the Himalayas for christ sake? An online course? What a joke.
Good one. 👍
It's funny how everyone forgets Jimmy is not a good person. Chuck is one hundred percent right, Jimmy with a law degree is a dangerous person. But we love Jimmy as a character and really don't have a connection with Chuck yet.
so you fall on the side on nature over nurture. There is no telling how different things would have been had Jimmy had a brother who gave him the positive reinforcement he horribly craved rather than undercut him at every turn and make his desperate. People can change
I agree. I mean wasn't he just trying to scam the Kettleman's into giving him business in the second episode? And then the whole ad stunt he pulled among other things. These were all recent, not even things from Jimmy's distant past. Like Jimmy is likeable and entertaining and the show has you rooting for him. But in the end, I wouldn't want to hire him for my firm either. A person willing to do the unethical and questionable things he does to get what he wants is not the person you want working at your law firm.Can you imagine the lawsuits? Tank the whole reputation of your business, no thanks.
yes, let the chuck hate train begin! 🚂🚂
nice
Is Chuck wrong?
yes
@@LMarti13 how so? :)
niiiice
The guy at the left with the hat looks bored when he watches Better Call Saul, i guess he doesnt like it even though he says that he does like it
He's already seen it.
hey rana, just sit there and look pretty stop asking questions and talking to characters like they can hear you.
Amen.
Wtf?
Well that escalated quickly.
Oh shut up. I came to watch the REACT, not just sit there.
Chuck hates Jimmy because Jimmy is unethical, not because he doesn't work hard. Everybody acknowledges he works hard.
If you’ve seen the later season you know that Chuck hates Jimmy because he was always the funny, sociable one that people loved, whether it was their parents or Chucks wife. People loved Jimmy more than Chuck, even though Chuck was a far more moral guy who followed the rules, and he couldn’t stand that. That resentment is also a driving force in their relationship. That’s the irony of it, Jimmy does the wrong things for the right reasons, but Chuck does the right things for the wrong reasons.
bullshit, Jimmy is more moral than Chuck
BB f**ked with our heads by making us root for Walt all the way till the end. BCS isnt just f**kin us, its raping us bareback by taking us through same journey with Jimmy. Only on another level. Great show 😀😀😀
The Show. Made it really obvious that He called hamlin.. How none of you got it
