Saul Gets The Better Of Jesse's Parents | I.F.T. | Breaking Bad

As he finds Skyler is dead set on getting a divorce, an unwitting Walt lands squarely in the crosshairs of a pair of Mexican drug cartel hit men set on revenge.

Season Three - Episode Two: "Caballo Sin Nombre"

Episode Description:
Walt tries to reconcile with Skyler, but when his advances are rejected he takes drastic action to bring his family back together. A confused and angry Walter, Jr. lashes out at his mother. With the help of Saul, Jesse makes a significant investment.

Episode Overview:
Already near the breaking point as a result of the divorce, Walt is pushed over the edge when he is stopped by an Albuquerque cop because of a broken car windshield caused by debris from the recent airline disaster. Arrested for his pigheadedness, Walt calls Hank to help him out of his jam and, after apologizing to the arresting officer, returns to his motel to find Saul Goodman, the lawyer who helped him and Jesse sell their meth supply to Gus. Though Walt wants no part of any more drug deals now that he is trying to win Skyler back, Saul urges him to keep an open mind. And to make sure Skyler doesn’t interfere, Saul sends his private detective, Mike, to follow her. Meanwhile, after returning to his parents’ house, Jesse discovers that they are putting it up for sale.

In the face of Marie and Hank’s questions about the divorce, Skyler refuses to reveal anything about Walt’s involvement with drugs. As Mike monitors Skyler’s whereabouts, Saul delivers Jesse’s share of the drug deal cash and asks him to keep an eye on Walt. However, while Jesse is noncommittal about keeping tabs on his ex-partner, he does have a job for Saul. Meanwhile, at a New Mexico nursing home, the cartel hit men, the Cousins, listen as Tio Pepe, the uncle of the drug boss Tuco, fingers Walt for his nephew’s death. And as Skyler looks to put her life back together, she discovers that she still must contend with the financial misdeeds and romantic interests of her boss, Ted Beneke.

Still unhappy over his dad being thrown out, Walt, Jr. comes to live at the motel. Yet, seeing it as an opportunity to talk with Skyler, Walt insists on bringing their son home. Meanwhile, on behalf of a client, Saul offers the Pinkmans half of what they are asking for their house. And after the lawyer threatens to reveal that it used to be home to a meth lab, he gets his low ball price for his client – Jesse. Finally, unable to convince Skyler to discuss his returning home, Walt breaks in after he just misses catching Mike placing a listening device in Skyler’s house – and narrowly avoids being killed when the Cousins’ mission is called off at the last minute.

Jesse lost the house to his parents because meth was cooked there, and then he gets it back because meth was cooked there.
I love this show.

[Wolfencreek]

"You are without a doubt the worst lawyer I've ever heard of"

"But you have heard of me? 😏"

[lakobause]

And to think, most of the people in the show interact with Saul with no knowledge that he defecated through a sunroof.

[harryvrentas]

You're telling me a house just happens to be sold like that? No! He orchestrated it! Jimmy!

[robespie]

I love the “do you concur”. Saul relishes burying people who look down on him.

[RadagonTheRed]

The beautiful thing about this is, one originally assumes he’s an incompetent buffoon, but he’s actually a massively skilled lawyer.

[gtxx]

the "do you concur" line is so perfect directed to the pompous, stuffy lawyer

[grease_monkey]

"let me guess, flat fee clients am I right?"

Love that, the reason the lawyer wants to get the meeting done quicker because he isnt getting paid hourly XD

[chickendrawsdogs]

Chuck: The Law is sacred!
Jimmy: The Law is guidelines.
Saul: It's free real-estate.

[giovannitv]

"Some would call that fraud for hiding a felony. But I, myself, am more open minded"

That's literally the definition of Saul's character. Amazing.

[rizzo-films]

I love how he takes his time in revealing his purpose, waits till they're half way out the door, they've totally written him off and their guard is down in a way. He weakens them when they think they're in their strongest position. Kind of masterful, but just another day for Saul Goodman.

[frankfrankerson]

Jesses parents lawyer is everything that jimmy hated about chuck

[nuclearmatt]

Saul's basically the lawyer version of Jack Sparrow: appears to be a charismatic buffoon, hiding an insanely clever man who's good at getting what he wants.

[IGamingStation]

I love how Jesse's parents look at their lawyer like "is he serious?" And their lawyer has this "Oh shit." look

[vijaytgeorge]

I loved that scene where Jesse tells Walt:
"When the going gets tough you don't want a criminal lawyer. You want a C R I M I N A L lawyer." lmao

[bassmaster]

University of American Samoa vs. Harvard Law

[jupitersnoot]

The moment when Jesse pulls up on the house and walks right on in in front of his parents was the most amazing, satisfying moment for me.

[yoadtv]

I love how Jesse's parents are talking with Saul casually, without knowing he once drank his own pee in the desert.

[Arkaneraven]

Never noticed the $400, 000 offered was basically the half Jesse had originally negotiated to get from his parents by splitting the sale 50/50 as he had residential rights given by his aunt.

Cool, consistent writing.

[draenog]

It's actually genius, this way his parents didn't actually lose any money but also didn't gain any while his aunt's place was still renovated nicely
