6.7.-Plan and execution

 



Jimmy and Kim deal with a last-minute snag in their plan. 

Previously on "Better Call Saul"...

 Is there any reason he'd need that much cash? 

No legitimate reason. We need him to be recognized. 

That's the whole point. 

The Jackson Mercer Foundation. 

The only thing is, the lunch is on D-Day.

 This is about Fring. Aaah! You and I are gonna have a talk. 

Saul: You're not gonna believe this, but I just ran into Casemiro. 
He broke his arm. 
Do your thing in Santa Fe, and we'll regroup when you get home tonight.
 It happens today.

 "I'm not afraid of death. 
What can death bring that I haven't faced?
 I've lived. Life is the worst. 
Listen to me, I'm a philosopher."
 ( Upbeat voice ) 
"Listen to me, I'm a philosopher."
 ( Unconcerned voice )
 "Listen to me, I'm a philosopher."

( Reasoning voice )
 "Listen to me, I'm a philosopher."

You must must must. Love, that's a trap."

( Grunts )
 Get in!
 We need to reshoot! 
300 bucks for 90 minutes! 
C'mon!
 ( Normal voice )
 Uh, I have a break an hour. Or maybe...
 No, you're not hearing me, 400 bucks if you get in the car right now. 
And... 
And I will set your boss straight if he gives you any grief. 
( Sighs )

I-I will sue his ass for wrongful termination and age discrimination if he fires you. 
Hey, hey, hey, come here, come here. How often do we get a chance to use our craft and shine, huh?
 To really slide inside the skin of yet another human being and make the kind of magic that other people only dream of?
 Now, listen! 
( Sighs )
Seize the day. Carpe diem. 
Don't live with regret. 
"Let nothing stand in your way."
 There's the spirit that takes people places. Come on. 
But buckle up. I don't wanna lose you through the windshield.

 This... is a Canon XL2.
 Three CCD, top-of-the-line, the crème de la crme. 20-time optical zoom, but also has interchangeable XL lens capability. Image stabilization, built-in filters...
 Variable frame rates, multiple aspect ratios, your choice.
 Well... it wouldbe your choice, if any of you were allowed to use it. This here is what professional videographers use.
 This is for art.
 This... is not for you.
 Thisis for you. 340 lines of so-called resolution... suitable for recording your sister's second wedding, local community board meetings, or pοrn mit-out plot. Yeah, hello. Excuse me. 
Professor Tanis said that we'd have access to the good cameras.
 Oh. 
Professor Tanis said that. Well, Professor Tanis does not represent the views of the equipment center. Irepresent the views of the equipment center. Okay? 
So... the "good" cameras? Those are for the few. 
The proud.
 The auteurs. Capisce? 
Okay, these are, uh, depth-of-field charts. Study them. Don't get lost in the Circle of Confusion. 
Can't tell your story if you can't keep things in focus.
 And, uh, I have some very important responsibilities elsewhere on campus, but I'll be back. And, fair warning, there's gonna be a quiz later. 
Probably. 
Don't touch the equipment! I'll know. ( Sighs ) What are you doing teaching a class? I told you, we have zero time. You have time to discuss my fee? 
"Discuss your fee?" Your fee is your fee. 
That's right, and in this emergency situation where I'm...
 Where I'm pulled from my collegiate duties, my fee's $500.$500?! What?! 
We did the same job last week for $100.
 If you think this is the same, feel free to go find someone else. What? No. $500! Fine! Jesus.
 Five.
 Pinky promise? 
Pinky, all the fingers. Just... don't tell the others.
 Right choice.
 You're paying for the best. 
The best ass reaming. 
That'd be extra.
 Okay. We're gonna shoot over here, trees in the background, throw it out-of-focus. 
That work?
 I'll make it work. How's my boy looking?
 Oh, I-I-I think better today.
 I used a foundation that's a little closer to his skin tone, and I found a spirit gum that isn't so gunky, so it makes the moustache look more natural. 
I like it, looks good... 
Yeah, hold on. You wander too far from the Shire? We're in rehearsals.
 It's a live action musical tribute to "The Dark Crystal." I'm Kira, the Gelfling.
 ( Scoffs ) 
Pretty sure it's pronounced "Barf-ling." Okay. 
Leave her alone. Just set up what you gotta set up.


Gotta go get my stuff, chief. 
No, it's taken care of. I'm here! I'm here! 
That's the face.
 Look serious. I just grabbed everything.
 Hi. I got three rolls of Tri-X and Plus-X 'cause I didn't know which one you'd want... 
Wait, wait, wait... 
You touched my stuff. 
Nobody touches my stuff but me!
 Truer words were never spoken. 
Okay. Get it in gear. We're on a deadline. 
♪ ♪ 
Thank God...
 ♪ ♪
 You're sure of this? 
Absolutely sure? 
We want it to look right, right?
 Yeah, I know, but Ican do it. I mean, I was around your cast almost as much as you were. Here, gimme the bag. 
You get back in the car, bust the speed limit, and you'll still make that lunch.
 ( Sighs ) Jimmy. 
This is where I need to be.
( Sighs ) 
Is my light meter in here? It's in there.
 Hello, Lenny, can I have your, uh... Left arm. Left arm? Of course. What's...? 
Your character has a broken arm now.
 ( Gasps ) 
It's not here. It's not here. 
The plot thickens. 

This changes everything. 
Nothing changes. 
Did you grab my NDs? 
I grabbed everything. Well, I-I must have a new backstory.
 Can you just hold your arm still, though? I don't see them.
 Check the side pocket. 
Think of the broken arm as symbolic.
 Ahhhh, I see. Symbolic. 
Got 'em. 
Going with the Plus-X. 
Try not to talk, Lenny. 
Your character motivation remains exactly the same. 
You're on a covert mission to accept a very important package, and you want to play it casual, okay, but knowing, you know?
 An air of mystery, intrigue, conspiracy...
 You know what? 
Probably best if you just look sleepy. 
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a minute.
 That supposed to be a cast? 

Jimmy: C'mon, guys, clock's running. 
Let's go. Hey. Hands.
 Thanks. 
Are you kidding me? 
Dude, c'mon, that's a $36 cloth camera tape from Rafik.

Uh... excuse me, Mr. Hamlin.
 I-I was told I should restock the fridge before the meeting.
 No worries.
 Here.
 Mm. 
Let me give you a hand. Thank you. 
Uh, you're... Gary? 
Cary. Anderson. Mm. Of course.
 Cary. Cary, what happens when you drop or shake a can of soda? 
Right. Boosh. I'm sorry, I-I'm, uh...
 Here. 
Let me show you a little trick.
 Something about the centrifugal force.
 It pulls the bubbles from the inside of the can, stops it from exploding. 
Don't want our clients to get a surprise, now, do we? That works? 
Oh. Alright.
 You know who taught me that trick? He used to do it, out of habit. 

Any time he opened a can, almost unconsciously.
 I asked him about it once. 
Just his way of being prepared for anything, accidental or otherwise. Um.
 I'm sorry, I'm kinda new here.
 I have to ask... who... who is that? 

Hamlin: Charles McGill. The "M" in HHM.
 The greatest legal mind I ever knew. Wow. 
( Breathes sharply ) 
I hope someone says that about me someday. Well... 
maybe there are more important things. Mr. Genidowski is here. 
Now?
 I told him you have a meeting.
 All the parties are here?
 Rich Schweikart and his team are running late.
 They just phoned, about 10 minutes out.
 Genidowski say what he wants? 
Just that there's been a development. 
Said you'd know what he means.
 Sorry about that. 
They're fresh out of the bath. What am I looking at? 
Took those about 7:00 this morning.
 McGill sat on a bench in Trumbull park, then the subject you see there passed by and collected a package from McGill, tucked it in his sling. 
Didn't realize what it was until I saw the photos up close. 
( Sighs )
 Oh, my God. Same envelope. 
And the man with the moustache?
 I was hoping you'drecognize him. I don't, but...
What can you do to find this man?
 I know he drives a silver Miata, and I got a partial plate. Not perfect, but enough. 
It'll take some extra man-hours, and I might have to grease some wheels over at MVD... 
Do it. 
Whatever needs to be done. 
I'm on it. 

Mrs. Landry: Now, the secret to a really good potato and leek soup...
 It's not the potatoes, it's the leeks.
 You have to leave them a little chunky. 
Oh, well, I love leeks. Oh, and garlic helps, too. 
( Chuckles )
 That sounds delicious.
I really hope I get a chance to try it... 
Irene! How are you, my dear?
 I'm very good, Mr. Hamlin.
 Now, you know to call me Howard. 
And you remember Julie, of course. 
Yes. I was just telling Irene she doesn't have to do or say anything, and there's nothing to be nervous about. Well, Cliff is absolutely right. 
Uh, uh, Julie, can you pour Irene a hot cup of chamomile tea, a touch of honey?
 That's how you like it, right?
 Yes, thank you. Irene, let me walk you through what's going to happen. 
You're going to meet Mr. Schweikart and his associates, who represent Sandpiper's interests, and it's all going to be very polite and professional, and to make sure it stays polite and professional...
 Mm-hmm.

An independent mediator is going to keep things that way. Kind of like a referee. 
Yeah, a very nice retired judge out of Santa Fe, Judge Casimiro, I've known for many, many years. Oh, thank you. 
You're so sweet.
 ( Whispering ) 
Thank you.
 Mm-hmm.
 Oh, my goodness.
 I'm just so glad this is all going to be over soon. Well, we all know the saying, "The wheels of justice turn slowly..."
( Chuckles )
 Things probably won't be over today. 
Uh, there's a chance, but we're fighting very hard to get you and your friends what you deserve, and the other side's fighting hard for their clients, so this is one very big, very important, and very slow step towards justice.
 Full disclosure, we're probably looking at... what, Cliff? 
Oh, I'd have to say 1 1/2 to 2 years, minimum. Of course, you're the class representative, and if you hear a deal of your liking today... 
Oh, no, no, no, no. I-I am not going to do anything that you don't tell me to do. 
Well, we will advise you to the best of our ability, I can assure you of that.
 ( Knock on door ) 
All the parties are here, and Erin has the out-of-state reps dialed in on the Polycom. 

Main: Fantastic
. And Judge Casimiro?
 In the waiting area, ready to come in once we're all assembled.
( Horn honks in distance )
 Excellent. Well, this is it, then.
 We'll freshen this up for you in the conference room. Thank you.
 Now, let's get you down there in style.
 Um, I'm fine walking. 
Of course. I'd feel better making all of this as easy for you as possible. 
Thank you for indulging me, Irene.
 Now, is there anything else to make you comfortable?
 Are you hot?
 No, I'm very comfortable. 
Anybody else hot? Ummm... I'm good. 
( Chuckles )
 ( Indistinct conversations in distance ) 
( Phones ring in distance )
 ( Grunts ) ( Exhales slowly ) 
And I believe we're just moments away...
 And here they are. Good afternoon, everyone.
 The team has entered room along with your class representative, Irene Landry. Howard.
 ( Chuckles )
 Cliff, good to see you. 
Rich.
 Yeah.
 You remember Alvin and Phil...
 Hi. And this is Daniela and Edwina from Sandpiper.
 Of course, great to see you again.
 Rich, I don't think you'vemet Irene Landry.
 No, I haven't, but it's nice to put a face to a name. Hello, my dear.
 Rich Schweikart.
It is so nice to meet all of you.
 There are so many people.
 Julie, I think it's time to invite in the mediator. 
Right away. Hang tight, everyone, now that all the parties are here, the mediator will be invited in... 
( Polycom beeps ) Um... 

Hamlin: Congratulations are in order, I hear. Whoops, hello?
 I read the... Hello? We still have everyone? 

Schweikart: That was a bear of a case. 
Terrific outcome. Hello?
 Did we lose anyone?
 Well, truth be told, I had Alvin here do the heavy lifting.
 Ms. Valco in Provo, you still on the line? 
Had a case before O'Dwyer...
 Uh, copyright. Smart guy. Can you unmute and let us know? 
Phil, didn't you second-chair a trial in front of O'Dwyer a month after you joined us? 

Phil: More or less.
 ( Chuckles )
 Thrown into the deep end.

 Ms. Valco: Yes, I'm here, Miss Brill. 

Hamlin: Good training for trials. Great. 
Um, well, if any of you get disconnected, just dial back on the same number you were provided, followed by the access code, then press pound... 
And who rose through the ranks faster than you, huh?...
 the little tic-tac-toe button, and you'll jump right back in. 
( Door opens )
 And it looks like our mediator has arrived, so we'll get started. 
We've got you right there at the head of the table.
 Is there anything I can get you? I'm absolutely fine, thank you.
 I am a pencil and notepad person. 
All I need.
 ( Sighs )
 Hello. 
I know we're all anxious to get things started, but you'll have to suffer through my traditional spiel, unfortunately. 
My name is Rand Casimiro, and I am your mediator for these proceedings.

Now, I'm happy to be here, but at the end, hopefully, all of you in the room and those listening from various locations won't be happy with me. 
And why do I say that? 
Because the best solutions mean compromise.
 It's compromise from both sides. 
That's my goal. But as my wife always says... 
Compromising doesn't mean I'm right and she's wrong. 
( Chuckles )
 So let us move forward with the b
... Shhhh-huh. Howard?
 ( Sighs ) 
I, um... wow. ( Clicks tongue softly )
 I'm... I'm sorry. I don't think we can proceed with these negotiations today. 

Schweikart: Why not? Let's just say... circumstances beyond any of our control. Well, I'm going to have to insist that you be more specific.
 Well, our mediator here keeps using the word "compromise" when he, in fact, is compromised.
 I beg your pardon?
 I think you heard me. 

Main: Howard... 
You drive a silver Miata, correct? 
I do. And this morning, around 7:00 a.m.?
 You walked across Trumbull park in town
. No. You didn't stop at the park this morning. 
I didn't. I got to Albuquerque early, not at 7:00 a.m. 
And I didn't go to a park. You're sure.
 Howard, if the judge says he's sure, then I... 
Of course I'm sure. If it matters, I arrived in town about 10:00. 
I stopped at a gas station.
 I went by a liquor store and bought a gift. I had a lunch salad and a very nice latte from the Flying Star on Menaul.
 I read Barron's. 
Then came here. 

Hamlin: Mm.
 So you weren't in town to visit our mutual acquaintance, James Morgan McGill. 
Or maybe you know him as "Saul Goodman." 
I don't know anyone by either of those names. 
Okay. You want to go that way? 
Julie, go to my desk, please. 
There's an envelope... with photos.
 Bring it to me, quickly. O-Okay.
 Howard, can we have a sidebar? I'm sorry, these photos. 
( Door opens )
 These are photos of me?
 ( Door closes )
 They show exactly what I'm describing.
 You were following me? 
( Breathes deeply )
 I had a private investigator following Jimmy McGill. 
You were photographed receiving what I estimate to be a $20,000 payoff this morning in the park.
 I-I'm sorry. I'm sorry, this is just...
 ( Clears throat ) 
You recommended this judge as a mediator, and we agreed, and now...
 Jimmy... 
Jimmy McGill, who...
 Who originated this suit is...

What? A-Admittedly, i-it all sounds a bit baroque, but when you see the photos, things will be clearer. 
Well, I'm looking forward to that. 
( Sighs softly ) 
( Door opens ) 

Julie: I have the pictures, Mr. Hamlin. 

Hamlin: Thank you, Julie.
 ( Envelope rustling ) 
And now... Take a look. Is that supposed to be me?
 I, uh... This is...
 ( Photos rustling )
 This is not... Julie, you got the wrong envelope.
 That was the only one on your desk. 
Look again. 
They... They've been switched. Somehow he switched them. Howard... 
No, Jimmy, he snuck in somehow, and...
 These are not the pictures I saw. Mr. Hamlin, are you alright? 
Your eyes...
 I am fine! 
This is all something that will be sorted out, I am confident. I think a recess is in order. Nobody move! 
Evidence has been tampered with. 
Now, Howard. Please.
 Is this how these usually go? 
What are you doing?
! I told you, this is a campaign by Jimmy to take me down...
 You are blowing this.
 You need to take a long, deep breath and apologize to everyone for what you just did. Of course. I'll call my P.I. 
He has the negatives. 
( Cellphone dialing )
 Listen to me... 
No, no, no. 
The original photos will prove everything.
 Howard... Just wait. You'll see.
 ( Not-in-service rapid beeping ) 
Okay. Uh, this isn't... 
( Breathing heavily )
 Alright, I'm going to figure out what the hell is happening. Howard.
 ( Door opens )
 Judge... I... I don't know what to say. I suppose...
 there really is nothing tosay. 
Best of luck, Cliff.

 Erin Brill: If everyone could just stay on the line, that would be preferable. The situation here is fluid, and we will update you as soon as possible. 
Uh, we've, um... we've reconsidered our position. 
We're going back to our previous offer. 
That stands until end of day.
 And tomorrow, we reduce it by a million, and then another million the day after that.
 ( Sighs )
 Our best to Howard.
 ( Taps on door ) 
Did you call a doctor?
 ( Whispering ) 
One is on the way. 

Hamlin: Cliff? Is that you?
 I'm not crazy. And I'm not on drսg. 
Please, come in... 
Now, somehow, someway, that son of a b¡tch gave me something that dilated my pupils. I don't know what, but it's wearing off already.
 Look. You say that Jimmy McGill drսg you. How is that possible? 
The photos, they were wet with... something. 
The missingphotos.
 Yeah, my P.I., Genidowski. 
He had to have been in on it. 
He...
 He must have shown me one set of photos, and then switched them after I left the office. Howard...
 Three weeks ago, Julie got a call from our detective agency. They wanted to update their contact info...
 So, of course, she changed the number in the system. But it turns out...
 It wasn't them. 
That was Jimmy. 
So when I needed an investigator to follow Jimmy, I called hisfake number and hisfake man. 
She just dialed the old number, and of course, got the actual agency. 

And, no surprise, no one by the name of Genidowski had ever worked there.
I hired a con man. I got played... 
every step of the way.
 I know what it sounds like, but you have to believe me. I...
 It doesn't matter.
 Rich went back to the previous offer. 
I'm going to recommend to the class that we take it. No. 
No way. 
We do not let Jimmy win this.
 Why would Jimmy even do this?
 He's a profit participant, this means less money for him...
 Because he's a child. 
He wants his money now. He begged me months ago to settle. 
You know what he does. Whatever the truth is, we'll never get back to where we were before mediation. We have to settle. 
I'm lead attorney.
 And I won't sanction that decision.
 Then I'm obligated to go to the partners and explain everything I've seen.
 All of it. 
You think you're going to be able to convince them it was all Jimmy McGill? 
Okay, then, we go to trial. 
Cliff, this case is incredibly strong.
 I put this thing in front of a jury, then everybody will know...
 I'm not thinking about you, Howard.
 I'm not thinking about Jimmy. 
I'm thinking about the time, the expense, the uncertainty.
 I'm thinking about our clients. 

Main: Hello, everyone. 
Thank you for your patience, and sorry for the wait. 

This is Clifford Main, lead counsel, speaking, and I'm here with some good news. 

An offer's been made and accepted by Mrs.
 Irene Landry, which is going to make all of you, I believe, very satisfied.

 I've pulled guys off all the low-priority targets to cover you.
The laundry?
 Tyrus is there with his crew. 
Aside from that, it's all hands on deck at your house. 
The trap is set. Salamanca shows up, he goes down.

Man: Notthe pope... Alexander Pope.

 Woman: "The proper study..." 

Man: "Of mankind is man."
 "of mankind is man."
 'Course, that means women, too.
 Yes. Yes, 
I know. I've been doin' some studyin' of a different mankind lately, like the ones you told me...

Y'know, we don't have to get it.

 Hamlin: Can I come in? Yeah. Come in. 
( Door closes )
 Kim. Howard. You doing okay? I'm fine. 
Sorry to, uh, interrupt... this...
 But I brought you a gift. 
A gift? What's the occasion?
 Your brother and I, we always had a meeting with "Mr. Macallan" after a big victory. 
Usually some brilliant summation by Chuck...
 That goes without saying. So this... 
Uh, this is for you.
 You earned it. You won.
 Won? 
Uh, what'd I win? 
I get it. Of course you... you both have to play it this way.
 ( Sighs ) 
You're both so very good at it. It's late, Howard. 
Do you wanna tell us what this is about?
 I was wondering that, too. What it's all about. 
I mean, what do you tell yourselves? 
( Bottle thumps lightly )
 What justification makes it okay? 
"Howard's such an asshоlе that he deserves it"? 
We're good. So...
 ( Cork pops ) .
..what is it? I sided with Chuck too often?
 I took away your office, put you in doc review?
 ( Chuckling )
 All of the above? 
Howard's daddy helped him get to the top, but you both had to struggle. 
"Howie has so much, and we have so little, let's take him down a peg or two"?
 What allows you to do this to me?
 Because this isn't just a prank. 
No. 
This goes beyond throwing bowling bars on my car.
 This took planning. Coordination. 
I mean, how many weeks? 
O-Or was it months? It couldn't have been easy. So, tell me... why?
 Why go through this elaborate plot just to burn me to the ground?
 Burn you to the ground?
( Chuckles )
 Howard, come on. Y-You'll be fine. You always land on your feet. Yeah, sure. The Sandpiper settlement? HHM's share will be substantial, absolutely. 
Even though I humiliated myself. 
And my clients and peers will whisper that Howard Hamlin's a drսg addict...
 you're right.
 I've worked my way through worse.
 Debt. Depression. 
My marriage falling apart. Oh, yeah. 
I've been sleeping in the guest house for the better part of a year.
 Ah, just one more thing good ol' Howard has to work through.
 ( Sighs )
 But, yes, I will land on my feet
. I will be okay. But you?
 Far from it. You two...
 You two are soulless. 
Jimmy, you can't help yourself. 
Chuck knew it. 
You were born that way. But you?
 One of the smartest and most promising human beings I've ever known... and this is the life you choose.

 Jimmy: Alright, you're too tight to drive.
 I'm calling you a cab. 
Oh, good.
 Phony compassion. 
Let's go. No, very, very believable, but I'm far from done. 
Oh, no, no, no.
 You aredone, Howard.
 ( Sighs ) 
Sorry, but you need to stop this now, and you need to go home.
 You're perfect for each other.
 You have a piece missing. 
I-I thought you did it for the money, but now it's... 
it's so clear.
 Screw the money.
 You did it for fun.
 You get off on it. You're... You're like... 
Leopold and Loeb. Two sociopaths. 
Alright, that's enough. No, you know it's true...

A altas horas de la noche, en una zona industrial de Albuquerque, Lalo , ahora de regreso de su viaje a Alemania , emerge de una alcantarilla en el centro de una calle. Camina hacia una camioneta adquirida, se quita un overol y conduce hasta una parada de camiones cercana. Allí, ingresa a una tienda de conveniencia y le dan las llaves de un baño donde se ducha. Al regresar a su auto, Lalo pone un cronómetro de una hora y toma una pequeña siesta. Regresa al área industrial y vuelve a subir por la boca de acceso. Navegando por el sistema de alcantarillado, Lalo encuentra un desagüe pluvial donde ha colocado una silla de jardín junto con comida y agua. Usando binoculares, Lalo monitorea el lugar frente al desagüe pluvial: Lavandería Brillante .

Acto I
Lenny , el aspirante a actor que anteriormente se hizo pasar por Rand Casimiro , practica líneas mientras realiza su trabajo diario recogiendo carritos de compras en un supermercado. Jimmy se acerca a Lenny y le ofrece $ 400 por noventa minutos de su tiempo, prometiendo demandar a su jefe si lo despiden por dejar el trabajo. A pesar de dudar inicialmente, Lenny está de acuerdo.

En el campus de la Universidad de Nuevo México, Jimmy saca a Joey de una clase de cine en la que actúa como profesor suplente. Después de regatear la tarifa de Joey, Jimmy lo lleva a una parte cubierta de hierba del campus donde el maquillador está maquillando a Lenny. El técnico de sonido de Joey se apresura al lugar con su equipo, mientras que Kim llega con una bolsa de plástico que contiene un yeso para aplicarle a Lenny como Casimiro. Jimmy le dice a Kim que aún puede hacer su importante almuerzo en Santa Fe, pero Kim dice que aquí es donde tiene que estar. Jimmy le cuenta a Lenny los detalles de su "papel" mientras Kim usa la cinta de la cámara de Joey para aplicar el yeso. Kim da instrucciones al grupo mientras Joey toma fotos de Jimmy sentado en un banco, entregándole un sobre a Lenny-as-Casimiro. Joey revela las fotos en un cuarto oscuro, y Jimmy y Kim eligen las que mejor se adaptan a su esquema, sobre las que aplican gotas de los suministros de psicotrópicos del Dr. Caldera . Jimmy corre hacia una calle donde el investigador privado de Howard, que se revela que está en la nómina de Jimmy, recibe el sobre que contiene las fotos y se marcha.

Acto II
En HHM , Howard está preparando la sala de conferencias para la próxima sesión de mediación del caso Sandpiper . Un interno llamado Cary entra y, sobresaltado, deja caer un montón de bebidas enlatadas en el suelo. Howard le demuestra a Cary cómo girar las latas varias veces las libera de la presión que podría hacer que exploten después de caer. Explica que aprendió este truco de su antiguo socio, Chuck McGill , cuyo retrato cuelga en la sala de conferencias; Chuck lo hizo para "prepararse para cualquier cosa". En ese momento, la secretaria de Howard, Julie , entra en la habitación para decirle que su investigador privado, Genidowski ., está en su oficina con un "desarrollo". Genidowski le muestra a Howard las fotos tomadas en el campus de la UNM, que muestran a Jimmy entregando un sobre a un hombre con bigote, a quien Howard no reconoce. Howard observa las fotos tomadas anteriormente de Jimmy sosteniendo el mismo sobre en un banco, creyendo que el sobre contiene dinero en efectivo. Le dice a Genidowski que busque la marca y el número de placa del hombre con el que se estaba reuniendo Jimmy.

En otra parte de HHM, Howard y Julie se reúnen con Cliff e Irene Landry , la representante de la clase en el litigio Sandpiper. Mientras Julie va a buscar el té para Irene, Howard explica que la sesión de mediación involucra a Rich Schweikart., abogado principal de Sandpiper, y será presidida por Rand Casimiro, un juez jubilado. Irene expresa alivio porque la demanda terminará pronto, pero Howard y Cliff le dicen que es probable que el caso continúe durante uno o dos años como mínimo. Julie informa al grupo que todas las partes están en la sala de conferencias. Howard está preocupado por la resina en sus manos que quedó después de tocar las fotografías de Genidowski. También siente cada vez más calor mientras transporta a Irene a la mediación en silla de ruedas. En la sala de conferencias, Erin actúa como taquígrafa para los clientes que participan por teléfono con altavoz mientras Howard y Cliff intercambian saludos con los abogados de Schweikart & Cokely . Sin el conocimiento de Erin, Jimmy y Kim están escuchando la reunión a través de un teléfono desechable enla oficina de Jimmy .

La última persona en entrar a la sala de conferencias es el mediador, Rand Casimiro, a quien Howard cree reconocer por las fotos de Genidowski. Cuando Casimiro abre el proceso, Howard, indignado, interrumpe su discurso y dice que la mediación no debe continuar. Procede a interrogar a Casimiro sobre sus movimientos esa mañana, preguntándole si visitó un parque o se reunió con Jimmy McGill; Casimiro niega ambos cargos. Howard le pide a Julie que recupere el sobre que contiene las fotos, que él insiste en probar que Casimiro recibió un pago de $ 20,000 de Jimmy. Sin embargo, una vez que Howard pone sus manos en las fotos, descubre que en realidad muestran a Jimmy entregando un frisbee a un corredor, en realidad el técnico de sonido disfrazado, en el banco. Howard se siente cada vez más frustrado y sus pupilas comienzan a dilatarse, desconcertando a todos los demás en la sala. Cliff pide un receso y saca a Howard de la habitación. Afuera, Cliff intenta disculparse con Casimiro y Schweikart le dice que están volviendo a la oferta de acuerdo original y que se reducirá en un millón de dólares por día a la luz de lo que sucedió si no se acepta de inmediato.

Cliff va a la oficina de Howard, donde Howard está descuidado y agitado. Howard, que ha descubierto que el número de teléfono de Genidowski ha sido desconectado, se da cuenta de que estuvo en el plan de Jimmy todo el tiempo y que Jimmy lo atacó para forzar un acuerdo. Cliff, pensando que las afirmaciones de Howard sobre Jimmy son una teoría de la conspiración paranoica, le cuenta sobre las nuevas demandas de Schweikart y dice que tendrá que informar a sus socios sobre todo lo que presenció en la sala de conferencias. Howard quiere llevar a Jimmy ante un juicio civil, pero Cliff le dice que es demasiado tarde para hacerlo y que está pensando en sus clientes. En la oficina de Jimmy, Cliff anuncia que se llegó a un acuerdo en el litigio de Sandpiper cuando Jimmy y Kim comienzan a tener relaciones sexuales en un sofá cercano.

Acto III
En el desagüe pluvial frente a Lavandería Brillante, Lalo graba un mensaje de video dirigido a Don Eladio , le revela que está vivo y le cuenta lo que aprendió de Casper : Gus había usado a Werner Ziegler para construir la " madre de todos los laboratorios de metanfetamina ". debajo de la ropa. Lalo tiene la intención de asaltar la ropa y matar a todos los guardias de Gus, luego puede presentar pruebas para Eladio que cualquier historia de tapadera presentada por Gus no podrá refutar. Después de terminar el videomensaje, Lalo llama al Hogar de Ancianos Casa Tranquila para hablar con Héctor .. Sin embargo, escucha un chasquido en la muzak cuando lo ponen en espera y se da cuenta de que Gus tiene intervenida la línea de Héctor. Después de descargar su ira en la silla de jardín, Lalo se comunica nuevamente con el asilo de ancianos y se comunica con Héctor. Afirma falsamente que no pudo encontrar pruebas contra Gus y recurrirá al "Plan A", que implica atacar a Gus esta noche. Héctor hace sonar enojado su campana en protesta, pero Lalo se niega a ceder. Al finalizar la llamada, Lalo ve que Mike y un grupo de hombres salen de la lavandería y se alejan en una camioneta. Al mirar una cucaracha en la alcantarilla, a Lalo se le ocurre una idea. Se aleja de su posición en el desagüe pluvial.

Acto IV
Gus aparece en un evento público en un gimnasio público, presentando un cheque ceremonial para un programa juvenil, cuando ve a Mike parado en la salida trasera. Mike lo lleva a un lado y le pone una grabación de la llamada telefónica de Lalo a Héctor. Él le dice que la situación ahora es controlable y que necesitan la "ventaja de la cancha local", y le aconseja a Gus que acorte la aparición pública y regrese a su casa fuertemente custodiada ; Tyrus y un contingente de hombres seguirán vigilando la lavandería. Mike le asegura que "la trampa está tendida" y que Lalo caerá si hace un movimiento. Gus asiente con la cabeza.

en el apartamento, Jimmy y Kim están viendo una película cuando un desaliñado Howard los visita. Howard le regala a la pareja una botella de whisky escocés Macallan para celebrar burlonamente la victoria de Jimmy, y les pregunta amargamente qué les permitió arruinar su reputación. Procede a llamar a Jimmy y Kim "desalmados" y les dice que son "perfectos el uno para el otro", disgustado porque lo arrastraron por el barro a través de un elaborado esquema de "diversión". Continúa con esta diatriba cuando Lalo entra en la habitación detrás de él, para sorpresa y horror de Jimmy y Kim. Le suplican a Howard que se vaya, mientras que el propio Howard no se da cuenta del peligro. Diciendo que quiere "hablar con mis abogados", Lalo coloca tranquilamente un silenciador en una pistola y le dispara a Howard en la cabeza, matándolo. Jimmy y Kim están traumatizados por lo que acaba de pasar,

Trivialidades

Con la muerte de Howard Hamlin , solo se desconoce el destino final de Kim Wexler y Lalo Salamanca .
Howard es el tercer personaje principal en morir y el segundo en la temporada 6.
Después de recibir un disparo, Howard se golpea la cabeza con la mesa de café de Kim, reflejando el movimiento de la lesión de Chuck en la tienda de copias de " Nailed ". Tanto la muerte de Howard como la lesión de Chuck fueron causadas indirectamente por planes orquestados por Jimmy.
Este episodio contiene una breve escena en blanco y negro a mitad de los créditos que muestra una hermosa casa donde se puede escuchar a Gene sirviendo una bebida en el fondo y declarando que "después de todo eso... un final feliz".
Sin embargo, esta escena no está presente en la edición AMC Plus, lo que sugiere que puede ser un adelanto de la temporada 6B en lugar de una escena real a mitad de los créditos.



Frases memorables

" ¿Es así como suelen ser estas cosas? "
― Irene Landry después de la muy accidentada mediación

"Don Eladio. Adivina quién. ¡Soy yo! ¡Estoy vivo! Estoy aquí en el hermoso centro de Albuquerque. Estuve aquí... ¿Cuatro noches? Ahora, quizás te estés preguntando, ¿qué estoy haciendo en este agujero de mierda? Bueno... un pajarito croata me contó un secreto. Dio una gran pelea, pero me lo dijo. Mira... ¿Ves eso? Justo ahí. El secreto de Fring. Ahora, he estado observando, y Fring esconde muy bien a sus guardias. Pero ellos están allí, vestidos como trabajadores de lavandería. ¿Ver? Ese es uno allí. Están escondiendo armas debajo de los uniformes, pero ya veo. Tengo una idea bastante clara de a lo que me enfrento. Puedo decirte lo que hay ahí. Un gran agujero donde un ingeniero alemán, Werner Ziegler, diseñó el lugar perfecto para esconder la... "madre de todos los laboratorios de metanfetamina". Bueno, esa es mi historia. Y Fring, Fring tendrá su historia. Una buena. Y la Bolsa lo respaldará. Porque es un... "ganador". Entonces, esta noche... entro... mato a todos los guardias... y les muestro la prueba. Entonces... tú decides. Adiós."
―Videomensaje de Lalo a Don Eladio

" Quiero decir, ¿qué se dicen a sí mismos? ¿Qué justificación lo hace bien? "¿Howard es tan idiota que se lo merece?" Entonces... ¿qué es? ¿Me puse del lado de Chuck con demasiada frecuencia? ¿En la revisión del documento? ¿Todas las anteriores? El papá de Howard lo ayudó a llegar a la cima, pero ambos tuvieron que luchar. "Howie tiene tanto y nosotros tenemos tan poco, vamos a derribarlo un poco". ¿Qué te permite hacerme esto? Porque esto no es solo una broma. No. Esto va más allá de tirar barras de bolos en mi auto. Esto requirió planificación. Coordinación. Quiero decir, ¿cuántas semanas? O-¿O fueron meses? Ha sido fácil. Entonces, dime... ¿por qué? ¿Por qué pasar por este elaborado complot solo para quemarme hasta los cimientos ?
―Howard confrontando a Jimmy y Kim por su estafa.

"Ah, sí, claro. ¿El asentamiento de Sandpiper? La participación de HHM será sustancial, absolutamente. Aunque me humillé a mí mismo. Y mis clientes y compañeros susurrarán que Howard Hamlin es un drogadicto... tienes razón. Me he abierto camino a través de cosas peores. Deuda. Depresión. Mi matrimonio se desmorona. Oh sí. He estado durmiendo en la casa de huéspedes durante la mayor parte del año. Ah, solo una cosa más que el bueno de Howard tiene que resolver. Pero, sí, aterrizaré de pie. Estaré bien. ¿Pero tu? Lejos de ahi. Ustedes dos... Ustedes dos no tienen alma. Jimmy, no puedes evitarlo. Chuck lo sabía. Naciste así. ¿Pero tu? Uno de los seres humanos más inteligentes y prometedores que he conocido... y esta es la vida que eliges. Son perfectos el uno para el otro. Te falta una pieza. Yo... pensé que lo hiciste por el dinero, pero ahora es... Es tan claro. A la mierda el dinero. Lo hiciste por diversión. Te bajas en eso. Eres... eres como... Leopold y Loeb. Dos sociópatas. No, sabes que es verdad, simplemente no tienes las agallas para admitirlo. Se lo voy a dejar claro a todos, porque voy a dedicar mi vida a asegurarme de que todos sepan la verdad... créelo... no puedes ocultar quién eres en realidad para siempre."
―La diatriba enojada de Howard a Jimmy y Kim, que termina justo cuando entra Lalo.

Howard : " ¿Quién eres tú? "
Lalo : " ¿Yo? Nadie. Solo necesito hablar con mis abogados " .
Howard : " Oh, ¿es así? ¿Quieres un consejo? Encuentra mejores abogados " .
―La conversación de Howard y Lalo [src]

" Yo uh... creo que estoy en medio de algo, uh... uh, realmente no hay necesidad de- "
―Palabras finales de Howard.

" Hablemos " .
―Lalo a Jimmy y Kim, después de asesinar a Howard
