Better Call Saul Season 4 Episode 10
Bravo to the writers. Never before has a movie, tv show or film stressed me out like this. I must mention that I’m watching all of it binge style but I don’t think it would have the same impact if I waited days between each episode. However, I would still like to congratulate the team behind this series.
Brotherly Love
For a moment, Charles isn’t that bad. He actually seems to care about Jimmy. I thought there would have been no moments like this in their lives. Jimmy is doing Jimmy by trying to convince America that he misses his brother. Hopefully, America can convince the board that he misses his brother. I must say that I am invested in Jimmy and I hope he wins. I must say that I’m glad that all of the students were cut short on their responses during the meeting, that was funny.
Werner Escaped
I really did not expect him to be the one to cause a problem. Somehow, I’m invested in Mike as a good character. This is a brilliant inner conflict that I have not experienced since God Father. Mike is working for a drug lord. None of this is good, he is a cooperative with killers and dealers. However, I see the good in this bad character. Either that or I see the bad in this good character. This juxtaposition of viewpoints is what this entire series is all about for me. I think the writers did an excellent job at getting me to feel empathy for evil characters.
The Jester
His comedic energy is so off-putting. Here I was, struggling between the grasps of good and evil, and then Lalo Salamanca is thrown into the mix with a completely different attitude. He smiles and sings and cooks and he is so polite. Immediately, I do not trust him. I don’t know how to read him. Is he content or angry?? Is he a good guy or is he going to kill Nacho?? Fuck!! I’m stressed out. What kind of trouble is he going to cause??
