I love this show! During several episodes I have noticed something I don’t really care about - the “music”. I hate to call it music - as it isn’t like your traditional songs, but I think it is extremely effective in capturing the mood (or inducing one perhaps). Anyone else feel this way?

I know some of it is a bit unrealistic, but I’m willing to trade that for - well I don’t know - I just love this show. I love she is imperfect, I love she has bipolar, I love Saul. I want more, more, more more…

I thought the same thing at first but I think the response below is a good answer…

What was the plan with the kid in the suicide vest? Just in case or an ulterior motive that didn’t come off?

Yeh. They told Carrie he was an “insurance policy”.
