Thus begins a long, dark moment in the life of Jimmy McGill.
“Look into that lens and see a friend,” Jimmy instructs.
“Just two guys, chattin' about chairs!”
He failsand it’s just the first time of many.
He cleans out his bank account to pay the office bills and lies to Kim about it.
His car develops a terminal cough and dies.
His next client cancels onsite, forcing him to shoot a commercial for free.
After, he’s so downtrodden that his production assistant tries to give him his money back.
Meanwhile, an old favorite makes an appearance.
Pryce, the artist formerly known as Squat Cobbler, comes home to find Nacho waiting for him.
Cut to Pryce and Mike meeting with Nacho.
Oh, and there’s one more thing… “That guy’s arealasshole,” Jimmy says.
“He needs to go down, hard.
I’m gonna sell him a worthless credit card for five thousand bucks.”
Kim looks dismayedand he shakes it off, but something has shifted.
The next morning brings a meeting with his insurance agent, a last-ditch effort to have his payment refunded.
Jimmy’s composure was shaky already, but now, it cracks.
The insurance agent picks up her pen and starts scribbling.
“What are youno, don’t write, don’t,” Jimmy protests, looking genuinely alarmed.
“You’re not going to say anything about that, are you?”
The insurance agent says, “I wouldn’t worry about it.”
Triumph, on the other hand?
