Season 5, Episode 9
10/10
What a gargantuan, epic episode.

Episodes like this are why I love Better Call Saul. While "Bagman" changed the game, and was more of a Breaking Bad episode, me as a guy who likes Better Call Saul more than Breaking Bad, it's episodes like this with the quieter more silent moments that brings this show on another level. One of the most intense episodes I've seen ever, and an acting masterclass by the main trio of this episode Bob Odenkirk, Rhea Seehorn, and Tony Dalton. If Rhea and Tony are getting nominations they are for this episode (Bob is getting it for one of the previous episodes.) The last scene is a testament to masterful suspense and intensity. I also love the parallels that I see with this couple, and Walt/Skyler they both care for their families first, and are willing to do whatever it takes for the good of their family, even though disagreements can come into place via the wife. The wife doesn't agree with their jobs because of violence, and the husband thinks they have no other choice. We will have to wait and see what Kim's fate is, and I couldn't be more excited for the final episode.
