    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."

    Something I like about Mike is that he gets hit in gunfights, he’s just ridiculously stoic and doesn’t let that stop him. It fits Mike so well because Mike is aging and he’s clearly not as flawless as he was when he was younger, but he’s just as efficient and dangerous even if he gets hit.

      He did however properly fear him though, which is saying alot because he didn't even properly fear Gus. With Gus, when it came to a certain point, even when he was trembling in his boots he felt enough courage to bark back at him and make his own terms. Almost all of his interactions with Mike involve Walt getting defensive and trying to broker a peace.

And then it becomes a dad/son or maybe a grandpa/grandchild relationship, with Mike even being proud of him and not wanting Jesse to get hurt or get involved too much in dangerous situations

      Well Mike only was in the game canonically for about 7 years. He joined Gus in ‘02 and worked with him throughout BCS, then died in what would canonically be ‘09, considering Walt spent the next few months running the game with Todd and then went into hiding for almost a year before dying himself in 2010.
      By that logic, Tyrus or Victor are better suited to their jobs than Mike is. They’d been with Gus years earlier than he had, and only died a few months before he did.

    That has to be one of the best depictions of a silenced weapon in hollywood. People usually see that long ass can on the front of an automatic/self-loading weapon and think "Oh well it's gonna go "pew pew" itty bitty noise. The problem is (for those not familiar with firearms) guns are loud, even if you remove the noise from the bullet being fired. You're still gonna hear the loud cracking of the action, when an automatic pistol is fired the gas is still pushing back on the slide and bolt of the weapon, causing it to jerk back violently, kick the empty bullet casing free and load the new round then snap back forward as spring tension pushes the bolt and slide back forward with equal amounts of pressure.
    There is no way to silence that on a self-loading weapon beyond perhaps *VERY* exotic designs to reduce the noise of the slide/action.
