Episode 10 recap

The previous episode of Better Call Saul Season 6 is titled Nippy. It is set in Omaha in 2010, where Jimmy, under the alias Gene Takavic, befriends Marion, Jeff's mother, the cab driver who had recognized him as Saul Goodman. Gene confronts Jeff and offers to let him into "the game." He then trains Jeff and his friend in robbing a department store at the mall where Gene works.

He plays his part by befriending and distracting the mall's security guards with cinnamon rolls and small talk while Jeff steels expensive merchandise under a strict time limit. However, Jeff trips and hits his head on the slippery floor, but Gene gains him some extra time to recover by faking an emotional breakdown to distract the head of security.

The three get away with thousands of dollars in stolen goods, but Gene warns Jeff and his friend to stay away from him, threatening to turn them in to the authorities, even if it means getting caught himself. Happy about the con's success, Gene wistfully finds a Saul Goodman-style dress shirt in the department store but leaves without purchasing it.

This episode was directed by Michelle MacLaren alongside Alison Tatlock as the writer.

The preview for the upcoming episode of Better Call Saul Season 6 does not have much to show, but fans of the show are aware that the episode is titled Breaking Bad, which means that they may see the return of Jesse Pinkman and Walter White.

The episode is directed and written by Thomas Schnauz. This episode will be the first to feature the Breaking Bad duo of Walt and Jesse, but it won't be the first time the prequel series has time-jumped into the Breaking Bad era.

The cold opening of Better Call Saul's Season 4 episode Quite a Ride was set between the events of Breaking Bad Season 5 episodes Ozymandias and Granite State when the collapse of Heisenberg's meth empire forced Saul Goodman to flee Albuquerque.

Watch episode 9 of Better Call Saul Season 6 on AMC and AMC+ on Monday, August 1, and the next day on Netflix.
