Better Call Saul Hints Jimmy Is Responsible For A Breaking Bad Death

Better Call Saul Hints Jimmy Is Responsible For A Breaking Bad Death

Jimmy McGill’s influx of clients in Better Call Saul season 6 all call Saul because of his reputation as Lalo Salamanca’s lawyer. Anyone who hears about Jimmy representing Lalo and thinks he’s the man for them must be involved in something criminal themselves, so despite Spooge’s more presentable exterior in Better Call Saul‘s era, he’s obviously no stranger to breaking the law. Maybe Spooge has been picked up by police for the first time, pulled his first robbery, or scored his first hit. Maybe he’s taking meth, but remains in control. Whatever service he pays Jimmy McGill to deliver, Spooge finds himself at a crossroads in Better Call Saul season 6. If he’s taken to court and forced to attend rehab, maybe he never becomes the broken, haunted Spooge seen in Breaking Bad. But if the great Saul Goodman finds some legal loophole that gets his new client off the hook, Spooge goes right back to his fledgling criminal career, and continues down a path that ultimately ends with death via stolen ATM.
Spooge’s brains spooging all over the floor is not what Jimmy would’ve intended, of course, but the cameo highlights a larger moral problem with “Saul Goodman’s” ethical stance. By allowing drug addicts and small-time criminals to evade the law, Jimmy is enabling these crooks to continue making bad choices, and commit more serious crimes later in life. Had Spooge not solicited Saul’s services in Better Call Saul, maybe he could’ve swerved a life of addiction and crime, and his young son would still have a father.
Better Call Saul continues Monday on AMC.
