I think she doesn't want to "know" about them, because she would then ethically have to report them. Right now, she still has plausible deniability, as she has no direct evidence that Jimmy did anything (thus her not wanting him to tell her anything directly).

From the previews it appears that Mike uses a sniper rifle to (I'm guessing) put a bullet in Hector's spine.

Kim didn't know for sure until she put out the bait for Jimmy. If Jimmy is guilty, he moves to cover his tracks, if not he just falls asleep.
He took the bait big time. They flashed over the two toothbrushes before Kim and Jimmy's conversation in bed. I bet that Jimmy gets back home and there is only one toothbrush. Hell, they might just open the next episode with the shot of a single toothbrush. Kim will leave him now that she knows that he ****ed over his brother. |

No half measures. Chuck is so full of himself, the thought of switching 2 numbers in a stack of documents is less plausible than his immediate suspicion of Jimmy. Yeah, Jimmy did do it, but that's a warped mentality to reach that conclusion with ZERO corroborating evidence About the only positive came when Chuck pointed out that he did it because it was for her. In the twisted nature of Jimmy's world, it's a show of loyalty. Something that Jimmy had fought for from Chuck and all Chuck wanted to do was rub his nose in it. Chuck forced Jimmy to make a choice of allegiance. Kim trumped Chuck. You'll see why Jimmy and Mike end up making a great team. Jimmy is an idea guy who is quick on his feet and a smooth talker. Mike is methodical, precise in detail, and studied in covering his ass and anticipation of where you can get tripped up. Last edited by Anyong Bluth; 04-12-2016 at 09:23 PM.. |

I agree Kim knew. It wasn't bait. She was making Jimmy aware that Chuck wouldn't rest until he found evidence. |

Yes, that was what I was trying to say. in 'Saul' he is not a killing machine, but has become one in BB. Somewhere in the Saul series he lets go of the notion of not being a killer. Now he is still a half measure guy; in BB he goes the full measure.

"Sure, Chuck was right about Jimmy being a slimy-ass liar and a fraud based on their shared history....but what an asshole"! #TeamChuck And for the record, his evidence wouldn't be a single inversion, it would be the fact that he looked at at least 8 pages that all had the same number and even created a factual connection to hammer the number on that paper into his mind. He wouldn't have inverted the number on several different documents; all of the paperwork in his file contained that number and if it were just a simple vapor-lock, reviewing all of those papers in concert would've eventually straightened him out. That's actually lawyer training (and probably basic memory skills); create a factual link for minute facts and you'll remember the facts well. His Magna Carta connection would've hammered that into his mind just as mnemonics are invariably used to memorize elements of crimes, defenses, etc... Chuck's not just flying off here; he knows his own training, he used it and he knows what he had was manipulated. The Magna Carta thing is easily overlooked but it's actually the key point; he knows to use memory keys and mnemonics; he used one and it was never corrected. That's how he can be absolutely sure that what he had was altered. Once again, Chuck is spot-on right because A) he's damn good at what he does and B) Jimmy's a crook and yet somehow you folks use it as ammunition against him. Same old tale every week with the pitchfork crowd... |

My firms not silk-stocking but we've had extremely similar situations. Senior Partners that are slipping, family members with JDs that don't have the chops for the job, in-house politicking for partnerships, etc... I'm kinda uniquely qualified for this one so I'm going to play devil's advocate wherever I can. And I've had my ass waxed by an old attorney that looks like he may have lost his fastball a time or two. I generally respect the hell out of the guys that have put in the grind in this game, especially the ones that can build something from nothing like Chuck appears to have done. It's a tougher gig than it seems sometimes and if you can make it out the other side with your health and a comfortable retirement, you've done something well. This show and Mad Men are the only two shows I've ever seen where I feel there's a direct proxy in that show for me. It's why I'm probably the only person in the world that ever loved Pete Campbell; I'm honest enough with myself to know that there's a LOT of Pete to my personality. In Chuck I see the guy that I'd really really LIKE to be some day. So I put myself in his shoes and view pretty much everything he does from a strictly professional standpoint. And from that standpoint, there's an excellent explanation for every action he's taken as well as ample support that the guy is just outstanding at reading people and doing his job. So #CHUCKSTRONG!Teamchuck |
