Mike Gives Saul Advice On How To Move On | Bad Choice Road | Better Call Saul

Season 6 is going to be membrane.

Mike explaining how to get rid of Amogus and brain rot

Genuinely one of the most real things Mike ever said. One of the worst things you can imagine happens to you, it weighs on you and it’s in everything you do, but one random day you will realise that you’ve got over it without knowing jt

I like how in here we can see jimmy is in control and he even wears "normal" suit. Like the jimmy persona is almost burned.

I don't get how Jimmy thought he could be a criminal defense attorney and... not deal with criminals.

Wish I had a mike to explain life to me ❤

it doesn't suit slippin jimmy

Absolutely beautiful advice and writing. Greatest show ever made!

When Mike says "here's what's gonna happen " , everyone shut their mouths and listen

So is he talking about ignorance is bliss or did I miss something? Haven't seen the show but love the scene

Here Mike foreshadows exactly what we see after Kim leaves Saul's life in Fun and Games

Mike wasn't only talking about witnessing a crime, but also how to overcome everything in life

I never realized until just now that the last episode with that flashback with Chuck also has a "road" metaphor, but Chuck gave Jimmy completely different advice to Mike. God the writing on this show is brilliant.

I would like mike to comfort me like that

Can’t believe Odenkirk went from Mr Show to this
So awesome

Such a great scene…

This is basically existencialism

Mike didn't pay the parking meter. Hes a hypocrite asking for tickets.

Why did they need to have 2 skaters in the background at the end of the clip?

I wonder if the skateboarders at the very end were put there on purpose to symbolize how it all began.

Mike and Saul have been through so much as partners, that Saul's submission and fear of him doesn't ring true in BB.

Note: it's at exactly the same spot Nacho piced him up to bring him to Lalo. AND he was eating mint choc chip icecream.

One day . . Walt Jr will still be eating breakfast

if you are in the game and you have a conscience, the game aint for you.

Mike exactly sounds like Sylvester Stallone

I am in EMS = no time to watch.
Who is Fred? Innocent bystander? What happened? Thank you.

True. We all make our own choices and it puts us on a road

I dont remember someone named "Fred"???? can anyone tell me please??
🧐🤔😳🤷🏼

good morning

u can start...

This is generally good life advice too..

This is the moment jimmy became better call someone else

their would be a mess crook

Man how far did Jimmy fell...that he became Saul

I mean, he's right. You never get over the real trauma, you just think about it less

I think the initial viewing of his scenes one thinks Jimmy is in distress and Mike is totally chill. I actually now don't think so.

I think Mike is also in a bit of distress but in a different one. I think he's seeing Jimmy's reaction and Mike is stressed over the fact that he doesn't feel stressed over the events like Jimmy does but he knows he should.

In his dirty life in the police he thought those days were over with him moving, but no matter how hard he tries he seems to get back on the bad choice road. So when he interrupts Jimmy telling about this I think he is trying to justify for himself and reflect and it wasn't directly targeted advice to Jimmy.

This is why having a job is very important. Without one you spend your time thinking, thinking about mistakes, mistakes you cant fix. Your mind needs somthing that seems important. Lottery winners with no purpose in life become miserable. And since they have all the money in the world and they arenr happy they dont even have being rich to dream about.

notice the skateboard kids at the end of the scene....

How to move on: Just do it.

This advice brought to you by Nike, the corporation built-up by sweatshop labor. They “just do it,” too 24/7.

Now I know why Mike told Kim that she was made of sterner stuff.

saul did not need to hurt my man’s feelings like that

Mike was probably the best guy out of the billion people that he could’ve talked to about this.

Interesting point regarding Fred -

Mike here says Fred wasn't in the game, which is largely true. But, it's his interpretation of what "the game" means. Lalo has a different interpretation.

Had Fred not broken the rules of his place of work for Mike, Lalo wouldn't have had any reason to talk with him. Had he given the same information to Lalo, he'd be alive. But by deciding to suddenly have a qualm with breaking the rules, to Lalo, that meant he was playing the game.

Mike likes to think his rules make him a better person, but, they're not so different than Lalo's. If they were, he wouldn't be in the game.

This makes me think of the scene after Jimmy and Kim break up. It just cuts to him getting up, and going to work. Like he’s completely forgotten about Kim, and Howard, his brother, everything.
