Better Call Saul: Nippy (2022)
Season 6, Episode 10
9/10
Great (and actually important)

Warning: Spoilers
There's not too much to say about this episode. The standout scene of the episode is definitely when "Gene," out of ideas, talks about the events of both shows. To distract the guard, he talks about how he has no kids, his divorce with Kim, how his father died, and more tragically how his mother died (not knowing her final words about him). He then talks about Chuck and lastly how no-one can or will remember Jimmy or Gene, just Saul. This episode is not only an interesting and creative heist story, but an episode where Jimmy slowly gets back into a life of crime, despite the obvious reasons not to and one where he reflects over every single one of his regrets through the disguised words of Gene. It is very close to a 10/10, but the small amounts of fluff and lack of a rewatch so far keep me from calling it amazing. As of now, this unique, vital and quietly depressing episode gets a 9.3/10 from me.
