The means don’t always justify the ends on Better Call Saul, but they’re fascinating to watch.
Here’s our review of “Gloves Off.”
Do the ends justify the means?
Jimmys insubordinate directorial debut unsurprisingly gets him in hot water with the Davis & Main partners.
Somehow he leaves the meeting with his job in tact, but with two strikes against him.
Jimmy only really starts to feel bad about his actions after Kim gets caught in the crosshairs.
Its a great scene that works on multiple levels.
Theres something funny about Chuck rationally scrutinizing Jimmy while cuddling a space blanket, weakened by some made-up debilitation.
The feud between the McGill brothers is definitely still on, with delusions still in place.
Tucos drug habit is making Nacho nervous, so he decides he wants to take out the loose cannon.
Instead of killing Tuco, Mike decides to stage an altercation that will send Tuco to jail.
Plots like these inBetter Call Saulkeep popping up, and Im always initially skeptical but proved wrong.
