Something else I thought would be a good gag reel...Pryce and Wendy getting hitched...

[Migraine]

Wonderful casting and implementation. I’m amazed.

[Migraine]

I noticed that; it was perfect.

[silent_jonny]

Also, Starbucks coffee is hot.

lol!

[silent_jonny]

That meeting with Saul and Mesa Verde had to be one of the best edited, most unbearable scenes ever filmed.

Every "Yup!" was like a punch in the face.

[silent_jonny]

He knew his plan would work and he just HAD TO pull the trigger on it, no matter what it would do to Kim or their relationship. He even shushed her--twice--like Biden shushed his handler.

[silent_jonny]

Marriage?? Why??? Is she being serious or having him on?

I think she's serious ... but the way she said it, like a drowning person grabbing onto anything to stay afloat.

They may actually get married, lol. On BB, we never saw Saul outside the office or away from Walt. It would be funny if we see an old clip from BB edited to show Saul leaving work and driving home to Kim!

But that wouldn't make sense ... Saul disappeared alone at the end of BB.

Maybe Kim gets herself in such a mess that SHE has to call the vacuum cleaner repair guy and has to leave Saul behind. So many possibilities ...

[silent_jonny]

The Mesa Verde story may not be over.

In the very first episode of BB, Walt empties his bank account at "Mesa Credit Union"* so he can buy the RV (which Jesse promptly blew on strippers :)

Does Saul cause such a mess that Mesa Verde has to change it's logo AND it's name to stay in business?

*My memory isn't that good, lol. Saw this in a Youtube comment :)

[TomServo]

Yeah - saw that last week on another site. Guessing that things went downhill with Mesa after Saul got thru w/em...lol...

[TomServo]

Another theory is that Mesa Verde went downhill because they were busted laundering drug money...Gus’s money...LOL!!!

[Yaelle]

Until I saw the disclaimer I was making the “I’m not worthy” sign with my arms. Now I am ever so slightly less impressed with you. ;)

But wow, what a find. And will we see Walt at some point, even just walking by on the street.... ?? One of the reasons to be really caught up so you don’t get spoiled... that would surely get leaked.

[Yaelle]

Just don’t kill her!!! ;)

[Yaelle]

I think I want to see that scene again.
