Best Quality Vacuum 110: Wedersehn

This standout episode of season five sees the culmination of Jimmy and Kim’s plot against Kevin Wachtell… even if Kim tried to pull the plug at the last minute. This leads to a blow up with a very unpredictable outcome that gives us a lot to chew on.

Mike did a whoopsie and nearly got himself killed, so Gus kidnapped him to Mexico to heal him or make a very important point. Meanwhile, Kim and Jimmy start putting together a plan to save Mr. Acker's land.

When Howard sweeps in to give Jimmy the job offer he's waited more than a decade for, Jimmy has a... paradoxical reaction. Meanwhile Kim, Kim enlists his help with the Acker situation, and Gus sacrifices a lot of money to get the DEA off his back. Also, we argue over whether or not Mike was trying to commit suicide by dude.

Someone call Powerman 5000 because we’ve found out what it’s like when worlds collide. Following a cartoonish affair last episode, Jimmy’s plot and the cartel plot run straight into each other as Lalo reaches out to Jimmy to help clean up the mess with Krazy-8’s arrest.

What harm could deep deep discounts cause? There’s no way they could set off a chain reaction that leads directly or indirectly to the creation of a Heisenberg, right?

Season five begins with the (legal) creation of Saul Goodman, an alter ego Jimmy creates for his new law practice that lets him finally step out of his brother’s shadow. But Kim isn’t very happy with this, or Jimmy’s more brazen scheming. Meanwhile, Gus and Mike deal with the aftermath of Werner Ziegler’s escape, and Lalo’s new suspicion about their plans.

In this episode we say auf wiedersehen to season 4 by talking about the scant special features and deleted scenes on the DVDs, and we read your responses.

Whether or not Jimmy actually misses Chuck, or feels bad about what happened between them, is all up for debate. What’s not up for debate is that Jimmy has to put on a big sad smile and stage the biggest display of grief ever. And speaking of grief: we lose Werner Ziegler too soon.

We hope you’re ready for some really big emotions! Kim and Jimmy’s inability to talk to each other blows up in their faces as Jimmy gets rejected for his BAR reinstatement. Meanwhile, we’ve got Lalos about, poking into Gus’s business, which is a big problem because Werner’s gonna make a break for it.
