These are really interesting twists for Kim's character. We see how she is starting to empathize more with and even join Saul Goodman, because she is seeing how the system is flawed. For those who rated this episode low...I am positive you didn't understand this point.
Everything from the pro bono cases to the trying to help the guy a new place has to do with her realizing that the justice system benefits those in power; those with money. QUITE LITERALLY A BANK is displacing a guy from his home! Quite literally the justice system is prying a little too much into a family dispute. Kim gets taken away from what she finds to be meaningful work all just to further the interests of a BANK! An obvious symbol for what Kim doesn't want to be doing. Remember, she wants to be Atticus Finch. She wants true justice. So, when Saul was playing that daring game of dropping the beer but catching and then Kim went ahead and just threw it, that was an insanely clever unspoken dialogue. As if Jimmy was asking, "What are your thoughts? We gonna break some rules for some fun?" And Kim answer is a deliberate one-not for fun, but because the justice system is actually flawed. So, she is now willing to break the rules, no questions. She realizes exactly what the issue in the justice system is. I just find it very interesting that we have an episode coming up called Wexler vs McGill. Something is gonna go terribly wrong in the next few episodes. This is why this twist really surprised me. Kim is the guy for the job...not just Saul. And Mike apparently is not at all the guy for the job right now. I wonder if Nacho might be who Mike ends up replacing. Like, if Nacho ends up filling the Mike role. Think of the parallels. They both are looking out for the innocents. They both are in it. They both tried to get the Salamancas. They both have played sort of intelligence gathering roles to assist Gus in their endeavors. I am afraid Nacho is gonna do something messed up.
ALSO! To the dude who said Hank had never met Saul until the Breaking Bad timeline, I don't think they ever specified that in any way...so, yeah.
