3.10.-LANTERN

3 temporada

Kim resolves to take some time off from work, while Jimmy does his best to make amends; Nacho takes a major gamble with his future; Hamlin applies pressure on Chuck to finally make a decision.

Previously on aMC's
Better Call Saul...

Should I settle?

Hector Salamanca.

- Turn the lights on.
- I'm back to normal.

You'd rather tear down
HHM than retire.

You think I'm trouble now?
Imagine me as your enemy.

It's a new client, and
if I mess this up, it's a former client.

Sandpiper is settling.
This is the solution to everything!

I'll be back in a few hours.

"It was very still
except for the tree-toads

and the frogs in the brook
peeping mournfully,

and every little while

Mabel could hear strange
rustlings in the leaves.

She
tried to remember the way home,

but the woods
looked so different now

that she couldn't think
which way to go.

She began to be frightened.

'What's that?' Said Mabel.

'Oh, I'm...
I'm so frightened!'

in a minute or two
she heard the howl again...

'o-o-o-w!'...

a long, wild cry.

She began to run, but the poor
thing had lost her way."

Is she gonna be okay?

She'll be fine, Jimmy.
How do you know?

Just listen.
You'll see.

"It was so dark
that she stumbled

over the bushes and the roots
of the trees..."

Kim.

I know.

Does she need
to spend the night?

Once this is Done,
she'll be discharged.

Good.

Lawsuits.

Threats.
Recriminations.

This is a situation
no firm ever wants to be in.

It's... Well, it's embarrassing.

I know we all want
a swift resolution here.

So what are our options?

Take it to trial.

Expensive.

And extremely damaging
for HHM's reputation.

Not my first choice or yours,
I imagine.

The firm could choose
to buy me out

for an amount that is
almost certain to bankrupt it.

I spent decades
building this firm.

I Don't want to be the agent
of its destruction.

There is a third option.

There's no reason

we can't put all this
unpleasantness behind us

and continue on as we have been.

I'm willing
to let bygones be bygones.

And if you agree,

I think we can settle all this
right now

with a simple handshake.

Would you all give us the room
for a moment?

17 years.

18 in July, actually.

All those years
we built this place together.

And all that time
I've supported you.

Looked up to you,

deferred to you.

Because I always thought

you had the best interests
of the firm in mind.

I have...

Mnh.
You did.

For a long time.

But you've let
personal vendettas

turn your focus away
from what's best for HHM.

You've put your needs first.

To our detriment.
I Don't think that's accurate.

And the moment
that I mildly suggest,

with empathy and concern,

that maybe it's time for you
to consider retirement...

the first instinct you have
is to sue me?!

To sue the firm...?

Well, I... I-i Don't even know...

I- in what world is that anything
but the deepest betrayal

of everything we worked so hard
to accomplish?

In what world is that anything

but the deepest betrayal
of our friendship?

Howard. I could argue that
you're the one who betrayed me.

That's bullshit.

And you know it.

This is pointless.

Here.

Just take this.

$3 million?

The first of three payments,

as per
the partnership agreement.

The firm can't afford this.

Are you...

You're not shutting down,
are you?

I would never endanger the firm.

This is mostly
from my personal funds.

And a few loans.

You're paying me
out of your own pocket.

You won.

There's one last thing...

Everybody!

Thank you for gathering.

I have some bittersweet news
to share.

I'm sorry to say, but our
fearless leader, Charles McGill,

will be leaving HHM.

Effective immediately.

I wanted to take this moment
to thank Chuck

for everything he's Done
for HHM.

We started off
with six employees.

And Chuck helped grow us

into one of the largest firms
in the state.

We will be forever grateful
for his dedication.

Do you have anything
you want to say?

Alright, then.
Let's give him a hand!

Hey.

Morning.

Close.

Gatorade.

You need electrolytes.

You hungry?

I'll make you somethin'.

Be right back.
Just finish that.

Hey.

I said I'd bring it to you.

I needed to stretch my legs.

Sit.
Eggs.

This is, uh, twisted.

Oh, thanks.

This one-handed crap is gonna
get real old, real fast.

Is there coffee?

Sure.
But, uh, more gatorade first.

Alright, your, uh,
two options are...

Good ole' ibuprofen

which, uh, you know,
should take the edge off.

Or the proverbial
"good stuff."

The answer is always
"the good stuff."

Right.
But food first.

You're not feeding me, Jimmy.

There are lines we do not cross.

I was looking into our lease
on the office.

Um, we'd definitely take
a haircut if we broke it.

But we are allowed to sublet.

Might be our best option.

Furniture's mostly rented
month to month.

So that's not an issue.

For you, I think you need
a desk, some file cabinets.

A westlaw terminal...

And, uh, haven't figured out
Francesca yet.

That's another conversation.

All that sound okay?

Are you sure about this?

I mean, even with
the sandpiper money...?

Look.
After, uh...

Everything...

I Don't give a shit
about the office.

So can I start looking
for a tenant?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I could've killed someone,
Jimmy.

Yeah. Yourself.

I worked most of last week
on maybe six hours of sleep.

And then I...

I crossed three lanes
of traffic,

and I Don't remember
any of it...

Look, you were just doing
what you thought you had to do.

Because of me. You didn't
make me get in that car.

That was all me.

I'm an adult.
I made a choice.

Hey.

All I can say is,

I am gonna fix things.

Okay. So, we're gonna
do everything around back.

It's mostly commercial around
here, so it's quiet at night.

♪♪ "Dinero sucio" plays on radio...
We pull the trucks up to the doors.

We unload right into the shop.

We can break down
the stuff in here.

There's space in the back
for storing scales

and, uh, supplies
when the shop's open.

Should be able to process
everything overnight.

I'd be here
to see it gets Done right...

where's, uh, papi?

I'll be taking care of all this.

But he's good.

Once we get everything packed,

Arturo will pick up

uh, make sure
everything is clear.

These are from Kevin and Paige.

Well, I guess they're
from everybody at mesa verde.

Oh! And there's a card.

Somewhere in here.

Ah, here!

You brought the book?

Um, sure.

Mr. gatwood.

The card wasn't clear,

but I'm pretty sure
you're getting steaks, too.

Really?

Texas.

He wishes you a speedy recovery.

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

You are so lucky.

I, um, I used to drive
that highway every weekend

to visit my brother
and his kids,

and I saw an accident
almost every single time.

People die on that road
all the time.

I-I already rescheduled
everything you had this week.

But I didn't touch that meeting
with the regulator.

I know that whole Utah timeline
is delicate, so...

Right.
It's next Wednesday, right?

Yes. And there's still a lot
of prep that we pushed

so you could focus
on getting Mr. gatwood up

by the end of the quarter.

Which isn't happening now.

Actually...?
I talked with Colleen,

and she said everyone's fine
doing that meeting Monday.

So, you know, that means
we could still slide in

just under the deadline...

Uh.

Did you bring a breakdown

of the documents I'll need
for next Wednesday?

I would...
i would have to figure out...

Yep.

how long that'll take me.

Right.

Absolutely.
Where to?

Ms. Wexler sends her

apologies, Mr. Gatwood.

A-and she feels terrible
about this,

but with her accident
and the recovery...

she's just not gonna be able to
finish her work for you in time.

Oh, of course, I'll tell her.

A-and again,
she is very sorry,

and I know she'll be giving you
a call herself soon.

Well, yes.

Ms. Wexler did ask me

They're an exceptional firm.

Okay. Well, I will send

A-and Ms. w-Wexler

And...

I wanted to say, in hindsight,

I could've
made different choices.

Is that so?
Yeah.

I mean, I'm not saying
it's all on me.

It's not.

But if I had to do it
all over again

I would maybe
do some things differently.

And I just thought
you should know that.

That you have regrets?

Yeah.
I have regrets.

Mm.

Why?

'Cause you're my brother.

There aren't that many
of us McGills left,

and, uh, I think we should
stick together.

No.
Why have regrets at all?

What's the point?

What do you mean?

Well, look at you.
You're in so much pain.

Why are you putting yourself
through all this?

'Cause I wanted to tell you...

that you have regrets.

And I'm telling you:
Don't bother.

What's the point?

You're just gonna
keep hurting people.

That's not true.
Jimmy, this is what you do.

You hurt people.
Over and over and over.

And then there's this show
of remorse...

it's not a "show"!

I know you Don't think
it's a show.

I Don't doubt your emotions
are real,

but what's the point
of all the sad faces

and the gnashing of teeth?

If you're not going to
change your behavior...

And you won't...

I can change... Why not just
skip the whole exercise?

In the end, you're going to
hurt everyone around you.

You can't help it.

So, stop apologizing
and accept it.

Embrace it.

Frankly, I'd have more respect
for you if you did.

What about you, Chuck?
Hmm?

You didn't do anything wrong?

You're just an innocent victim?

Let me put your mind at ease,
Jimmy.

You Don't have to
make up with me.

We Don't have to
understand each other.

I've got some kitty toys

Oh.
You shouldn't have, Jimmy.

Of course I should.

Now, have you given any thought

to how you want to spend
that settlement money?

I Don't know...

Well, I'll tell you what I'd do.

Alaskan cruise.

You can walk on a glacier
under the Aurora borealis.

And if Alaska's too cold,
maybe a European river cruise.

Float on down the Danube.

I bet you and the ladies
could split a deluxe suite.

Get into all sorts of trouble.

That sounds very nice,

but... I Don't think
they'd really want to.

Why not?

They're still... Upset.

They must be excited about
the settlement though, right?

one little misunderstanding

destroy years of friendship.

Oh, it's just not

Now, Mr. McGill.

- What?
- You are unbelievable.

I could not, for the life of me,
figure out why on earth

Mrs. Landry would suddenly
change her mind

about the sandpiper settlement.

I had to practically drag
the information out of her

that you filled her head

and all of her friends' heads
with lies.

I never lied to anyone.

You drastically misrepresented
the reality of the case.

So?

So?!

You took advantage
of poor Mrs. Landry.

Does she know how much money
you're gonna make from this?

Nope.
And again I ask... so what?

These people trusted you, Jimmy.

Do you have any idea
how much time I had to put in

listening to their insipid
ramblings about their sciatica

or which grandchild
disappoints them the most?

Damn right they trust me.

I worked my ass off
earning their trust.

Then you betrayed it.

If the only thing standing
between me and a million bucks

is some old lady's tears,

then I'd suggest
investing in kleenex.

You've ruined her life because
you wanted your money faster.

Boo and hoo.

Besides, it's not like she's got
that much time left, anyway.

You're disgusting.

And rich.

Hey, everyone.
Apologies!

That was probably more like
20 breaths instead of 10.

Uh.

I Don't see a lot of

Come on, girls.

Shame on you.

So?

within an hour or so.

Good.
Hey.

Well Done in there.

I meant every word I said.

I know.

Thank you.

You got the address?
Yep.

Okay. I'll meet you guys there

Yep.

up, you'd be our first call.

Yeah.

Oh. Bye.

Uh, appointment book.

Hey, why'd you do that?

Because no senior's coming

Acto I
Kim es llevada al hospital después de su accidente automovilístico y le enyesan el brazo roto. Un Jimmy preocupado llega a su habitación del hospital. Esa noche, los dos regresan a la escena del accidente, donde Jimmy intenta recoger documentos dispersos de Gatwood Oil .

En HHM , Chuck se enfrenta a Howard y a los otros socios por su amenaza de demandar a la empresa. Al señalar que HHM podría declararse en quiebra si la demanda continúa, Chuck sugiere que dejen de lado sus disputas. En lugar de aceptar la oferta de Chuck de un apretón de manos conciliador, Howard les dice a los otros socios que abandonen la habitación. En privado, llama a Chuck por anteponer sus vendettas a los mejores intereses de la empresa. Howard le entrega a Chuck un cheque por $ 3 millones (la primera de tres cuotas) pagados de su propio bolsillo, eliminando la influencia de Chuck sobre HHM. En el vestíbulo, Chuck se ve obligado a mirar cómo Howard anuncia su partida frente al personal reunido. Sale del edificio entre aplausos.

Mientras tanto, Jimmy atiende a Kim mientras se recupera en su apartamento . Mientras le prepara el desayuno, Jimmy dice que planea mudarse de la oficina de Wexler McGill y subarrendar el edificio. Se culpa a sí mismo por el accidente de Kim, sintiendo que el intercambio de direcciones de Mesa Verde fue la causa principal del exceso de trabajo de Kim. Kim responde que quedarse dormida al volante fue el resultado de sus propias decisiones y expresa su culpa por ponerse a sí misma y a otras personas en peligro. Jimmy le promete a Kim que "arreglará las cosas".

Héctor se acerca a Manuel y le ofrece varios cientos de dólares, pero Manuel le dice que salga de la tienda. Nacho le dice a su padre que piense en sus seres queridos, persuadiéndolo para que tome el dinero. Afuera, Nacho intenta decirle a Héctor que su padre finalmente se dará cuenta, pero Héctor responde que no confía en él.

En el apartamento, Francesca le entrega a Kim obsequios de recuperación de Mesa Verde y Billy Gatwood . Ella comenta que Kim tiene suerte de haber sobrevivido a su accidente en esa carretera en particular, y comenta que ha visto accidentes mortales mientras conducía allí. A pesar de que le dijeron que podrían cumplir con la fecha límite de Gatwood, Kim le dice a Francesca que cancele su reunión y posponga sus otras citas. Las dos mujeres van a Blockbuster Video y alquilan un montón de DVD.

Las palabras de Kim a Jimmy hacen que reconsidere sus tratos con Chuck, lo que lo lleva a conducir de mala gana a la casa de su hermano para ver cómo está. Al entrar, se sorprende al ver que Chuck ha vuelto a instalar la electricidad en la casa. Jimmy le dice a Chuck que lamenta cómo manejó su enemistad y señala que quiere hacer las paces. Chuck rechaza la propuesta y dice que sus sentimientos no tienen sentido porque está en su naturaleza inherente herir a quienes lo rodean, sin importar lo que diga o sienta. Además, le dice fríamente a Jimmy que en realidad nunca le importó. Aplastado, Jimmy se va. Esa noche, Chuck, incapaz de dormir, va al panel de disyuntores y apaga todos los disyuntores. Yace despierto en la oscuridad, solo.
Acto III
Jimmy pasa por la habitación de Irene en Sandpiper Crossing para celebrar el acuerdo con globos y pastel. Intenta hacer sugerencias sobre cómo Irene puede gastar el dinero, pero ella le dice que sus amigos siguen molestos con ella. En el centro comercial , Jimmy se sienta con el grupo de yoga en silla de Irene y trata sin éxito de persuadir a las otras damas para que se reconcilien con ella. Comentan que Jimmy es un "buen amigo" y que Irene no lo merece, sin darse cuenta de su papel en la manipulación de todos para que acepten el acuerdo.

Mientras tanto, Chuck sufre una importante recaída de su delirio de EHS. Llama a la compañía eléctrica y pregunta por qué el medidor sigue funcionando cuando ha cortado la energía de su casa. Buscando encontrar la fuente de electricidad, recorre la casa accionando interruptores y desenroscando bombillas, comprobando periódicamente si su medidor se ha detenido. Después de cancelar una cita con el Dr. Cruz , incluso desconecta su teléfono. Chuck peina las paredes con las manos, tratando de adivinar el origen del uso. Cada vez que siente un lugar probable, rasga la pared con un martillo o una palanca. Después de horas de búsqueda, encuentra un cable escondido en la pared, pero descubre que el medidor aún funciona. Enfadado, destruye el medidor con un bate de béisbol.
Acto IV

Nacho se sienta en su camioneta afuera de la tienda de tapicería, con una pistola en el asiento del pasajero. Cuando Héctor se detiene en su auto, Nacho toma el arma e intenta una emboscada. Sin embargo, Arturo y Carlos llegan e impiden que Nacho avance. Los cuatro observan cómo llegan Gus y Juan Bolsa para enfrentarse a ellos. La Bolsa reitera la posición de Don Eladio de que los "camiones de pollo" de Gus harán todo el transporte transfronterizo para el Cártel. Héctor se enfurece cada vez más y nuevamente sufre fuertes dolores en el pecho. Toma las pastillas con púas de Nacho, deja caer la botella y el resto en el suelo, donde Nacho puede recuperarlos. Como estaba previsto, las pastillas no tienen efecto y Héctor se derrumba. Gus insta a Bolsa a que abandone la escena mientras le realiza RCP a Héctor, salvándole la vida. Después de que suben a Héctor a una ambulancia, Gus mira con recelo a Nacho.

Acto V
Jimmy regresa al departamento de Kim, donde están viendo una maratón de películas alquiladas mientras ella se toma un tiempo libre en el trabajo. Jimmy informa que sus esfuerzos por arreglar la brecha entre Irene y sus amigos han terminado en fracaso, y sus esfuerzos por hablar bien de Irene tienen el efecto contrario. Jimmy finalmente inventa una manera de hacer lo correcto por Irene, pero le dice a Kim que "realmente, realmente no quiero hacerlo".

Al día siguiente, Jimmy se presenta en Sandpiper para dirigir el grupo de yoga en silla de Irene. Erin Brill aparece y exige ver a Jimmy afuera, donde lo confronta por mentirle a sus clientes para obtener un día de pago anticipado del acuerdo. Jimmy confirma sus acusaciones y golpea a Irene y sus amigos, aparentemente sin darse cuenta de que todos pueden escucharlo en la sala de yoga a través de su micrófono inalámbrico. Cuando regresa, Irene y sus amigos lo reprenden en silencio y se van. Se revela que Jimmy diseñó el incidente con Erin para ayudar a Irene y renunciar al acuerdo, aunque Erin dice que estaba diciendo la verdad cuando dijo que Jimmy es repugnante.

Más tarde, Jimmy y Kim se mudan de su oficina en WM. Se disculpan con Francesca por despedirla, pero ella dice que podrá volver a su trabajo en la División de Vehículos Motorizados. Jimmy promete volver a contratarla si él y Kim reinician su práctica, pero Francesca responde con incredulidad. Después de que ella se va, Jimmy tira su Rolodex, ya que se ha deshonrado con sus clientes mayores. Kim lo saca de la basura y dice "nunca se sabe". Después de admirar el mural de la pared de WM, los dos se van.





























Esa noche, Chuck tiró todos sus electrodomésticos en su patio trasero. Chuck, roto y solo, se sienta en medio de su casa ahora destrozada envuelto en una manta espacial y patea su escritorio repetidamente en un intento de derribar su lámpara de gas. Eventualmente lo logra, permitiendo que la casa se incendie con él adentro.

Trivialidades.

Este es el primer final de temporada de Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul que no fue escrito por Vince Gilligan o Peter Gould .
Este es el primer episodio dirigido por Peter Gould que no escribió.
Este episodio es solo el segundo en el que Mike no aparece.
El episodio marca la muerte de Chuck . Si bien su destino es ambiguo en el episodio en sí, Michael McKean confirmó la muerte de Chuck en una entrevista con el New York Times . El destino de Chuck se confirma más tarde en la pantalla en " Smoke ".
Chuck es el primer personaje principal en morir.
El número gratuito de la Línea Nacional de Prevención del Suicidio (1-800-273-8255) se mostró después de los créditos finales de este episodio.
El episodio es el único que no utiliza el tema tradicional de los créditos finales compuesto por Dave Porter , optando por utilizar otra pieza musical dramática de él para acompañar el tono sombrío del final.
Este episodio explica qué llevó a Héctor a sufrir el derrame cerebral, que lo dejaría permanentemente discapacitado durante los eventos de Breaking Bad .
Durante el episodio, Kim hace que Billy Gatwood se refiera al bufete de abogados de Schweikart & Cokely . Esta es la misma firma que representa a Sandpiper Crossing y de la que Kim recibió una oferta de trabajo.
Antes de colapsar, el labio de Héctor se tuerce de manera similar a como lo hizo en Breaking Bad .
En el adelanto del episodio, vemos a un adolescente Chuck leerle a un joven Jimmy "Las aventuras de Mabel" , algo que se mencionó por primera vez en el estreno de la temporada (" Mabel ") . Dos elementos importantes de este episodio también son visibles en la carpa: la linterna y el bate de béisbol.
Cuando Kim está en la tienda de videos Blockbuster, se ve un DVD de Beverly Hills Ninja protagonizada por Chris Farley. Bob Odenkirk trabajó con Farley en Second City y Saturday Night Live , y ayudó a escribir y crear el popular personaje de Farley "Matt Foley: Motivational Speaker" famoso de SNL . En el estante de la pared también se pueden ver los DVD de A Knight's Tale , que coprotagonizó Laura Fraser .
Mientras intenta resucitar a Héctor, Gus pronuncia la frase "no te mueras, cabrón" varias veces. Esto se traduce del español a "no te mueras, cabrón". Cabe destacar que esta línea no está traducida en subtítulos de Netflix, sino que dice que Gus está hablando español.
Según Talking Saul , Peter Gould basó la escena en la que Chuck rompe las paredes de su casa con un hacha en la escena al final de The Conversation (1974) donde el personaje Harry Caul desmantela su apartamento en busca de un dispositivo de escucha, mientras Michael McKean basó su actuación en el cuento de Ray Bradbury " La fruta en el fondo del cuenco ".
En " Alpine Shepherd Boy " (quinto episodio de la primera temporada ), el Dr. Cruz intenta alertar a Jimmy de que Chuck sufre una enfermedad mental y es un peligro para sí mismo. En particular, advierte que la lámpara de gas podría incendiar su casa .
Toda la tercera temporada ha dejado pistas sutiles que presagian el acto final de Chuck, a menudo haciendo que la lámpara de gas ocupe un lugar central:
"Mabel": El título era una referencia a Las aventuras de Mabel , un libro que Chuck le leía a Jimmy cuando eran niños. El autor, Harry Thurston Peck, se suicidó tras una desgracia profesional.
"Testigo": la linterna se ve de manera prominente mientras Chuck y su investigador privado esperan dentro de la casa a que Jimmy robe la cinta de la confesión, y Jimmy amenaza con quemar la casa cuando interroga a Chuck sobre la ubicación de una posible segunda cinta.
"Costos hundidos": mientras espera que la policía lo detenga, Jimmy predice que Chuck alejará a todos los que conoce y morirá solo después de verse abrumado por su EHS.
"Sabrosito": Jimmy y Kim contratan a Mike para tomar fotos de la casa de Chuck y presentárselas a Rebecca. Una de estas fotos es de la linterna colocada sobre un montón de periódicos, en la que Jimmy toma nota especial cuando se encuentran en el restaurante para hacer el intercambio.
"Chicanery": Jimmy presenta dicha foto durante su audiencia en el bar.
El flashback al comienzo del episodio, donde la cámara se acerca a una linterna mientras Chuck le lee Las aventuras de Mabel a Jimmy.
Solo el hecho de que los episodios en los que estaba mejorando eran "Slip" y "Fall"
