Jimmy should have just gone to film in front of a Perkins. Their flags are huge.

I like how she demanded proof and then later told Jimmy to make sure there was no evidence.

What I didn't understand is why would Chuck send his guy to the copy shop to ask him and then come back himself to ask him the same thing? You would think once his guy told him the copy shop guy saw him, he would just start working on a subpoena.



Good point, and I also think the same is happening to Mike. He was very principled and I think this episode showed him even his good intentions can cause an innocent person to be killed. I think that is what will harden him into the man we see in Breaking Bad.
If the guy working at the place tells Chuck's assistant that he didn't see him, that would keep Chuck from having to go into the store and be exposed to the lighting, copiers, etc.

And Chuck would know how to set up a formal, admissible statement from the guy. Ernie probably does not.

I mean, man, that was a lot of times he hit his head on the table.



Did they really have to set those stations up so close?!

He also had a kind of funny song about wearing glasses.


And I always loved his other hit, "Him".
Now the true Holems-heads out there have a special spot in their hearts for his Tony Award-Winning Best Musical -- The Mystery of Edwin Drood

That's incorrect. The pool that he pissed in was Don Eladios pool.

It's not incorrect. I never said it was Gus's pool. I am aware that it was at Don Eladio's house. The point is that it was was obviously a disrespectful/intimidating/insulting gesture to Gus and the partner during a sitdown, especially a first meeting.

I assumed you were saying he pissed in Gus' pool.
I am not sure how you consider Salamanca pissing in Eladio's pool indication that he doesnt like Gus. I took it as he didn't like Eladio, but whatever.

Well, why not both? He was insulting them the entire time, saying they'd want to see his dick while pissing. I see it this way: If you had a business meeting with two new people, I'm pretty sure openly pissing in front of them isn't a sign of respect, even if they don't own the property.

Hahaha. I remember seeing him on Breaking Bad for the first time, and thinking "Hey, wasn't that the baddie from Beverly Hills Cop"

How could anyone not know Banks as Frank McPike from Wiseguy?

Banks is one of those character actors who played "that guy from [insert name of movie or tv show]" that you start recognizing in a ton of older stuff once he gets a part like Mike.
