A stunning and beautiful episode that ends in the best way possible. I can't express how much tremendous effort has been put in from the cast and crew; and how damn well it's payed off. This episode is another flawless hour that will go down as one of the best in television. The opening has us ponder fate on again fatalism; all themes posed throughout the entirety of Better Call Saul. The episode pinpoints flashbacks in Jimmy's life where he talks to Mike, Walt, and Chuck about the possibilities of a time machine and which places they would change. Mike's response seems to reference stolen money. Walt and his arrogance goes on wishing he took his old company back. But Chuck flips the question. Chuck believes that it's never to late to change one's fortune-redemption is possible. And that's exactly what Jimmy does.
Instead of taking those 7 years in prison, Saul takes the big 86 and brings up all the awful and deplorable things to the judge that have devastated numerous lives. It's a powerful moment, one which certainly deserves Bob that Emmy. His cathartic final line, "Call me Jimmy" had me roaring in my seat. He's accepted who he is and how he can change. I love the callback shot with Kim and Jimmy smoking in that film-noir style and I especially love Jimmy's final shot of the entire series: A man slowly panning out of sight whose only regret is that he didn't confess earlier.
Thank you so much Peter Gould, Vince Giligan, the cast, crew and everyone who worked on this tremendous show.
