I think she will dump him as he turns more and more into Saul the scumbag. They gave it away with that scene at the end of the first episode. But then she came out in the 2nd episode swinging at Howard and hiding the check/letter from Jimmy in order to protect her man. So who knows. I just hope they don't kill her off. 3 hours ago, row_33 said: Their voices are very similar LOL. I thought you meant in terms of content, not how they actually sound.

Now that I think of it, the part when he says new paragraph didnt sound right, who would just say that when reading a letter? But that could be something that would come up when you are dictating something into a computer that would type it out for you. And Jimmy mentions how it's not dated which seems unlike something someone like Chuck would do. This could be the start of something that drives the wedge between them? She writes a new letter because she assumes that the original one chuck wrote would devastate or hurt him more, so she tries to help Jimmy by now making him think his brother really was proud of him. She got all emotional because Jimmy didnt react to it like she hoped and didnt seem to have any emotion to it at all. I think this season will be the year that Jimmy fully breaks ties with everyone in his life and completes the transition to Saul. Once his suspension is over and he can practice law again he will stop being Jimmy and will be separated from his old life and be Saul. I dont think Kim will die or be killed, I think she and Jimmy have a big fall out and she leaves, maybe going back home. Was she not from Missouri? (I thought she said in one episode she was) maybe that's why he ends up going back there after breaking bad to try and find her and reconnect? Last night's episode was pretty good, for a second when Gus went to the school I thought maybe it was going to involve a Walter cameo.

Jimmy is a psychopath, but a fun one to cheer for on TV, I don't want people like that in my life. May not care at all about Chuck gone, he is just looking to satisfy his next itch. i'll wild guess that she got an addressed envelope to Jimmy in the archives of the courthouse and wrote a fake nice letter. Chuck wouldn't have forgotten THE DATE on a letter.... (i have worked with a lot of Chucks...) A Chuck probably had a fact to every year on the Gregian and prior calendars as a mnemonic device. Kim is a different kind of brilliance and grind, she isn't a Chuck, and wouldn't even think of that kind of detail as being critical for a letter to a brother. could they sneak Mr. Cranston into a role without it getting leaked? someone noted 17 words were spoken in the first 6 minutes, a fine minimalist performance, but the dialogue is the only thing i care about when i rewatch during the week. 13 minutes ago, The Poojer said: oh i agree, memorizing song lyrics can be somewhat easy, but they had the song coming through the headphones so he had to sing it correctly, on tempo, and it's not like it's just song lyrics, it seemed to be the periodic table so some of those words are hard to pronounce. i think i have every lyric and bass/drum pattern for every decent pop song from 1956 to 1986 in my skull, have won a few contests, sadly not bringing millions.... all of us chem students had it memorized to a good extent, something you just did, i can rattle off the top 40 right now despite not thinking about it for 30 years. but he's a great character actor and that stuff is old hat to them, they can rattle off an entire whole play of Shakespeare and perform it differently every night.

For some reason, the letter may have been filed at the courthouse and Kim knew about it, so she switched it out. Her reaction and Jimmy's reaction were both genuine. It just shows Jimmy's indifference. It would have been very anticlimactic if not for Kim's reaction. Kim's reaction represents the normal world where the letter is an emotional event.

I dont agree, I think she did write it, too many mistakes in it to be from Chick, and even when he was in the mailroom, Chuck was only proud of Jimmy being in the mailroom and not becoming a lawyer. Je also always seemed jealous of Jimmy being the younger brother that the parents loved, that letter seemed to be too out of character for Chuck as something he would have wrote, even if it was years ago.

Fadingpain Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) There are a few theories floating around regarding the letter. Kim faked it. No, Chuck wrote it, but it was from an earlier time when Jimmy still worked in the mail room. The letter is hand written. How would Kim fake Chuck's handwriting? Jimmy would recognize it either way. I think the letter is genuine. I predicted it would be kind and not attacking several pages ago in this thread! Here is what confused me in this episode: During the architectural model scene and then at the end of the episode, we see Kim sort of freaking out. I'm not sure why she did so in either instance. I think she saw the expansion plans for Mesa Verde and realized she had just gone through a lot of work for a small expansion...now this guy is trying to take over the world. I think it seems overwhelming to Kim at the time and she has been through a lot lately. But then we see the letter reading scene and Kim totally loses it, despite her normal tough, hard, professional demeanor. I think she is again focusing on the total lack of empathy or emotion that Jimmy showed while reading, and she realizes her life is about to take a big turn to the big time. I think she realizes Jimmy is a small time hustler and she knows their paths are going to have to diverge. Hence the emotion and tears. I'd be curious to hear other people's theories on why she spaced out during the model scene, or why the emotion at the end. I think she is going to dump Jimmy and she knows it, and that is how she will fade out of the story. That dumping may be the final straw that makes Jimmy become Saul the total scumbag.

Fadingpain Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I enjoyed the scene leading up to the shooting of Nacho. They do that a lot. No dialogue for an extended period and you are just following along, piecing together what's happening. The torso shot to Nacho was tough to take! And then they tell him to make the call before he passes out. Easily could have died out there in the desert and no one really cared. It does suck to be Nacho. Should have gone into the family business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he say the letter was handwritten? I dont remember that. There has to be more to it then just a nice letter from Chuck from an earlier time. That doesnt seem to fit the show. This is a show that went from him writing a will for a client including her Humboldt collection to a future season where he is stealing one from someone else. Nothing is done just because. As for the expansion scene, definitely think that Kim is freaking out cause they just dropped this info on her of massive expansion after how the original expansion was wearing her out and nearly killed her. I dont know if another firm or someone else worked with them or if this was just the owners grand plans he just dropped on her of what he wants to do going forward.

I thought you could actually see that it was hand written, and it was the sort of thing that would be hand written. The content of the letter does suggest it is from an earlier time and not right at the end of Chuck's life. Perhaps the reason Kim broke down as she did is precisely b/c the letter is authentic. She would be the one to know that... The letter was supportive and had a positive tone. And yet Jimmy reads it quickly, totally devoid of emotion. I think that freaked her out, just as his singing in the kitchen freaked her out at the end of the other episode. Both times Jimmy basically saying, without using any words, that he is totally emotionally detached from his brother and doesn't really care that he is dead. I still have it on the DVR; I'll watch that scene again and see why I thought it was a hand written note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) It doesn't matter if it's typed or not. Kim's not just going to write a fake letter. She would simply withhold it from Jimmy until she determined it was the right time...which she did. It would be an incredibly stupid "twist" that isn't characteristic of this series. I was really surprised when people suggested it. The theory is so out of the blue and unnecessary to me. While reading the letter, Kim is looking at Jimmy in confusion. She's just stunned that it's having no effect on him. It's having more of an effect on her (Chuck was one of her mentors; him and Jimmy are basically family), which isn't right. She's scared and stressed out. It was a really good scene and the whole purpose of it was to expose their characters, not just to viewers, but to themselves. Fans were expecting some big to-do with the letter, but the letter itself (or Chuck's disdain from the grave) isn't the focus here. Whether the letter was good or bad, Jimmy was supposed to react to it. Be moved by it. Edited August 22, 2018 by LeGOATski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Popinski Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Her first thought about the Letter was "one more screw you Jimmy" from chuck from beyond the grave remember? Then she hears the actual letter and it's 100% the opposite from what she thought intiially. I think that's what broke her down. you think one thing about a person's behavior and it turns out to be the complete opposite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
