In fact, Saul’s tie (in the color picture) almost looks like it’s covered in pictures of Mike. This is the highest res picture I could find of it. [![](https://p2.trrsf.com/image/fget/cf/1200/1600/middle/images.terra.com/2022/08/10/1528429914-better-call-saul.jpg) ](https://p2.trrsf.com/image/fget/cf/1200/1600/middle/images.terra.com/2022/08/10/1528429914-better-call-saul.jpg) If that’s the case, I have to assume this picture is taken _after_ they were 100% done shooting. Can you imagine them forgetting (and the script supervisor not noticing) that he accidentally left it on during a scene. ---

I know it’s the 70’s/80’s wardrobe/hair/glasses/mustache, but I never noticed how much Gene looks like Marc Maron, at least how he looked in GLOW.

Yeah, I have several agaves, and you gotta be super careful around them. The tips are very sharp, and there are equally sharp spikes all along the edges of the bracts. ---

Hell yeah. We had a few large blue agaves in our yard when we moved in - they were nasty. Ends of the leaves were needle sharp and hardened for 1-2 inches of the 3-4 foot length. Rest of the leaves were pretty stiff too. Pretty sure you could kill someone with one. Backed into them a few times until I learned to be careful. I was glad when they bloomed and died. ---

Lets look at the options: Saul Dies - I don’t think they’re going this route because they already did this with Breaking Bad Saul goes back into hiding somewhere else - They also already did this in Breaking Bad. So no Saul gets arrested, but lawyers his way out of it - I think this would be interesting. We really don’t know what kind of evidence they have against him. I could see him working out a deal with maybe only a year or two jail time. But that might be complicated to all cram in the final episode. So my final prediction is he gets arrested and goes to prison for a long long time. Final scene is a flash forward a couple years where he’s got himself set up as a prison lawyer. Final line is him saying “You better call Saul.” ---

_The Producers_ ending would be kind of lame. I suspect Kim isn’t finished with her mission of atonement. She still needs to destroy the monster she believes she helped create. ---

I’m kind of expecting a prison sentence, if it happens, to be flashed over like his law license suspension was. I’m not saying he won’t go to jail, in fact I think that’s likely, but I don’t think that will be the last we see of him. I’m thinking a sort of redemptive arc in jail and a jump to his release where maybe he reunites with Kim? (Maybe not permanently, but I don’t think the divorce and payphone are going to be the last scenes they have together.) ---

Final scene is a flash forward a couple years where he’s got himself set up as a prison lawyer. Final line is him saying “You better call Saul.” That’d be fantastic. So I want this to happen now. ---

That’s kind of my prediction as well, but ending with him in court walking up to represent himself might be good too. ---

Yes! We see Jimmy as Gene throughout the final episode, then right at the point he walks into the court room to defend himself, he is Saul. ---

I got dibs on the Gene transformation to Saul in court (post 1358): > [@Marvin\_the\_Martian](#): > > Gene gets busted. Elects to defend himself. Walks into court wearing the garish shirt and tie combination he looked at wistfully while casing the department store. Slow fade from black-and-white to color as he walks towards the jury for his opening arguments - Saul Goodman’s last ride! End credits. ---

A question has occurred to me re: spousal privilege. A wife, of course, can not be compelled to testify against her husband. But can an ex-wife be compelled to testify regarding matters that occurred during the term of the marriage? ---

IANAL, but my guess is that she waived most of those rights when she entered a confession. ---

> [@AlsoNamedBort](#): > > Saul Dies - I don’t think they’re going this route because they already did this with Breaking Bad > Saul goes back into hiding somewhere else - They also already did this in Breaking Bad. So no That’s been my thought process, too. It’s possible they’d repeat major plot resolutions from BB, but it seems more likely that they’d try to avoid them. The ‘prison and resurgence of Saul as a prison ‘lawyer’’ idea is good. It would be satisfying to many. However, it doesn’t fit the episode title “Saul Gone”…so I’m doubtful. “It’s all gone” could mean a lot of things. If they want to avoid another ‘protagonist dies in the final episode’ ending, they might go with something like ‘Jimmy/Saul/Gene flees to a tiny third-world nation (that has no extradition treaty with the US) and lives in abject poverty for the rest of his life.’ Depressing, but not entirely unfitting. Or, ‘it’s all gone’ could refer to Kim’s feelings for Jimmy, and that will be brought home in whatever life he has at show’s end (prison or exile or attempt to make a life in some bleak town after the legal system decides it can’t make a winnable case against him). Not long until we know!
