Despite assurances from the cartel, Gus takes extreme measures to protect himself against looming threats. Kim and Jimmy enlist the help of a local pro to put on a show for Cliff Main. Howard seeks outside counsel.
Previously on "Better Call Saul"...
Four for unlock, five for lock.
I gotta tell ya, it does not sound like the Howard Hamlin that I know.
You're going to forget you ever heard the name Howard Hamlin.
Lalo is dead.
( Exhales sharply )
The DA's office put it together that Lalo was calling himself "de Guzman."
What do you think we should do?
Do you want to be a friend of the cartel or do you want to be a rat?
What did you learn?
Lalo Salamanca lives.

How's it going?
Eh. Status quo.
You know, hummin' along.
We did land a pretty big client last week, though.
Insurance outfit in Santa Fe.
They cover most of the high-end real estate up there.
Great. But, Howard, I'm not a shareholder.
( Both chuckle )
I'm -- I'm just getting warmed up.
Although I still think you would make one hell of litigator.
Ah. Appreciate that, but I'll pass.
At home, things are more or less the same.
It's not any worse -- I guess I should be grateful for that.
