I always got the sense that Mike respected Gus. He was never Gus's lap dog. This theory turns Mike into Gus's bitch.

No it doesn't lol. It's a job. And Gus would be someone that would be trustworthy to work for and not erratic.

I'm not talking Mike being in debt to the guy.

At some point Mikes skills are going to get around to Gus. At this point I'd say the best way for him to be on Gus radar would be his being in the Salamancas sights

But ether way, Mike goes with Gus to visit in BB so he's clearly on good enough terms with the Cartel. Maybe not Tio though

I REALLY need to binge BB again and pay close attention to Mike and Jimmy and all their interactions. I have only watched BB once, so it is certainly worth a second viewing anyway.

So, back to a possible Gus appearance.

Maybe Hector Salamanca pre stroke is going to come after Mike for this Tuco run in and Gus will offer him protection of sort? For Mike in return being his enforcer and dirty work guy.
Old Man Salamanca appearing is going to be great, whenever it does happen.

He makes his living off repeat business.

Pretty great episode. Love the scene between Chuck and Jimmy.

I know Mike made 25 grand, but ouch. He's an old man to take that kind of beating. I do not think I'd want to be on the other side of Tuco's lie detector.

Looks like we're getting the Twins next week. I spied a familiar pair of boots in the previews

Hopefully they show us why exactly they are so badass. In Breaking Bad all they do is kill a bunch of unarmed people and get taken out by a 40 year old unarmed fat guy. One of the only complaints I had about the original series.

Great episode tonight though.

Can't believe I actually like Mike in this. I did not like him in BB.

How can someone not like Kim?

She's not like a must watch TV character for me. But she's far from being the Skylar role on this show.

I think she's great
My thoughts as well.

She is a solid friend who has been screwed over by Jimmy, and is now struggling with how to react to that. Does she focus on her career and abandon him or does she remain loyal and basically destroy her career. The problem she has is that her career may be destroyed either way, because Chuck is a vindictive twat who will everything in his power to poison everything jimmy touches or WANTS to touch. Although, assuming the story he told is accurate, he has a reason to hate Jimmy.

It isnt a black/white question, because Jimmy did not screw her over intentionally. It was just Jimmy being Jimmy.
