Heh. Hey, you
gotta tell Howard...

to add another M to the firm.

- Because it'll make it more symmetrical.
- Mm-hm.

- People love symmetricality.
- Can't argue with that.

Yeah.

Oh, no, no. Come on. Sit. Yeah.

- Okay.
- That will do.

Okay.

Yeah.

That's why God gave us two eyes.

- Oh?
- You know, more pleasant to look at.

Hands and two feet.

Thumbs and nipples.

We could get by with one nipple.

Yeah. Am I right?

You may be more right
about this than anything...

- you've ever spoken about before.
- Thank you, Chuck.

Mm-hm.

I mean, four or six
nipples, that's interesting...

but I submit to
the court, it's...

It's overkill.

HHMM. Hmm. Hmm, hmm, hmm.

See, that's better.
HHM is just: Hm.

- No? Are you writing this down?
- Yeah.

Jimmy, I put a trash can
by the bed, just in case.

- Eventuality.
- You think of everything.

Very smart, Chuck.

- I have some water here for you.
- Thank you.

What do you feel like in the
morning, eggs or pancakes?

Pancakes.

- Make those pancakes you make.
- Pancakes it is.

All right, get some rest, Jimmy.

- You've had a big day.

He's got a three-and-a-half
hour jump on us...

but he started out on foot,
which gives us a fighting chance.

He doesn't have his passport, so
he's probably not headed to the airport.

Doesn't know his
way around town.

But if he gets to a bus or a taxi,
that's not gonna matter much.

Most likely ran off
towards the highway.

You two head north and south,
see if he's got his thumb out.

You two, go to the train and
bus stations, use the cover story.

You, you stay with the crew.
You keep them on lockdown.

You got it.

Yeah, I need the
number for Travel Wire.

Just connect me.

Hi, I was wondering
if you could help me.

I arranged for my wife to wire me
money from Frankfurt, Germany, to the U.S.

The problem is, she
didn't tell me which branch.

Margarethe Ziegler.

Yeah. Albuquerque branch on
Fourth, I should've known. Yeah.

Thanks.

Watermelon pickles.

Watermelon pickles.

Watermelon pickles.

One thousand one, 1002.

One thousand three.

Oh, hi.

It's very nice of you to come.

Of course. You're
Chuck's brother?

That's right. I'm Jimmy.

Ken Greenfield.

This is Emily Reed.

Hello.

We knew Chuck back in our time with
the Native People's Education Council.

Oh, yes. I remember.

He spoke of you
both quite fondly.

That means a lot.

I feel bad we lost
touch for so long.

Well, you're here today, so...

We saw the notice about the
law library dedication this weekend.

And that today was
the anniversary of...

I can't believe
it's been a year.

It still doesn't make any sense.

Well...

So nice to meet you.

- God bless.
- Bless you.

Very thoughtful.

- Hey. You need some water?
- Hey.

Coffee. And give me one
of these bear claws, please.

You better pace yourself,
though. It's gonna be a long day.

Yeah. But, hey, we
got customers already.

That's a good sign.

I was afraid no
one would show up.

How'd it look?

How'd it feel?

Felt like I looked sad.

- What's the headstone like?
- Oh, Howard picked a big one.

But it's tasteful.

All right, just sign here.

Okay, let me give
you... This is your receipt.

Just make sure your party
has valid ID when they pick up.

Anything else? MAN: No.

All right. Have a good day.

- Can I help you?
- Yes.

It'd be wonderful if you could.

I'm looking for Werner Ziegler.

Has he been in here
in the last few hours?

I'm sorry, even if he was
here, it's not company policy...

- to give out customer information.
- Even if he just walked in?

- I don't care about what he did.
- Well, I really can't.

He is my brother-in-law,
we're very worried about him.

He has early-stage dementia,
and on top of that, he's a diabetic.

He doesn't have his medicine.

- My wife is beside herself.
- Oh, no.

Well, we talked long distance
to their sister Margarethe...

back in Germany. She said
Werner called ranting and raving...

wanted her to send
money, and, well...

She said she did.

To this branch.

I have his insulin in a
cooler out in the car...

and I was hoping I would
get here ahead of him.

Look, yeah, he was here.

But you missed him.
He left about an hour ago.

Oh...

Oh, no. Damn.

Just took the money and left?

Yeah.

Well, not right away. He made
a couple calls on the pay phone.

Picked up his money, then left.

Then what, he just
wandered off on foot?

He got in a car. Um...

I think one of his
calls was for a cab.

You see what company?
Was it a regular taxi...

- a car service?
- I didn't.

- I'm sorry.
- Mm-hm.

Any chance that...

I might have a peek
at your security videos?

See who got him?

Heh. No.

Oh. I get it. Not
company policy. Yeah.

Then...

could you tell me where
the nearest hospital is?

He was here a
good half hour or so...

before his money
order came through.

He asked if his money
came, but not yet.

- You mind?
- Oh.

Well, that's bad luck.
You can't see the car.

Yeah.

Thanks for your help.

Sure. Good luck.
Hope you find him.

Can I see it?

For what it's
worth, I believe him.

He said he'd be gone four
days, he's not gone to any cops.

This is about him wanting to
see his wife, plain and simple.

She's on a Lufthansa flight.

Landing in Denver
nine hours from now.

Yeah.

And your men will be there.

And they'll follow her from the
airport to wherever he's holed up.

And then?

There's another
way to play this.

If I can find him before
the wife gets here...

let me bring him in and
finish what he started.

His crew can't
do it without him.

Ziegler disappears, you are left with
the most expensive hole in the ground...

this side of the Mississippi.

You can find him?

This is on me, I'll fix it.

Yeah. You get everybody back in.

Get them on the phone to every
cab company and car service...

you make up a story.

Find out who picked Ziegler
up at Travel Wire on Fourth.

Start calling hotels.

Here, Colorado, Arizona.

He had to register under
his own name or his wife's.

Pull the transcript on
the last call to his wife.

Read it to me.

What'd they talk about?

No, after that.

After the dog.

They were gonna go on vacation.

Baden-Baden.

Natural springs.

Hey there. Did you find your
brother-in-law? Is he okay?

Yes, I'm calling for
one of your guests.

Werner Ziegler.

Right.

Z-I-E-G-L-E-R.

You're sure? And there's no
reservation under that name?

I won't lie, it's
been a tough year.

But I'm proud to say
Hamlin Hamlin McGill...

is back and going strong.

It's his lasting legacy.

Which is why this couldn't
be more appropriate.

I know this would've
meant the world to him.

A good and proper
memorial for a man who was...

many things.

But always a lawyer first.

On behalf of the whole
school, we wanna thank you.

Me? I... No, I didn't
donate any of this.

I'm just a guest.

- Really?
- I'm pretty sure...

- I heard someone say you paid for it.
- Yeah.

Well, I didn't. I wish I could
take credit for it, but I can't.

The invitation says
"anonymous donor."

I assumed that meant HHM. Huh.

- Baked brie?
- Don't mind if I do.

Actually, I happen to know
Mr. James McGill paid...

for the reading room himself.

Really? The brother did this?

I saw him write the check.

- Hi, Rich.
- Hey.

This is quite an event.

Looks like half the attorneys
in the Southwest are here.

- Yeah. They all came for Chuck.
- Hmm.

I heard someone say that
Jimmy paid for all this himself?

He'd...

prefer to remain anonymous.

Oh. Hmm.

Well, where is he? I
was hoping to say hello.

He's around here somewhere.

Oh, isn't that him?

Out there.

Hmm. I guess even a year out,
an event like this can be tough.

I better go check on him.

- Thanks for coming, Rich.
- Yeah.

Almost time to go back in.

Twenty-three thousand dollars.

I can't believe I wrote a
$23,000 check for this.

You know?

I don't even see anyone from
the Bar Association in there.

We still have almost a week.

Someone on the board will hear about
this. And they'll believe it, because...

they heard it from a colleague.

Yeah, I know. Word
gets around, but...

Try this on for size.

Judge Papadoumian
is in her chambers...

she's working late.

Everyone else has gone home.

Suddenly she smells something.

Something burning.

She crosses to her door,
it's warm to the touch.

She opens it.
Pfft. Wall of flames.

Her clerk's chamber's on fire.

She's trapped. But then,
through the fire and smoke...

a figure emerges.
It's Jimmy McGill.

See, I rescue a judge. Now,
that people are gonna talk about.

And it's too big.

And probably... It's not how
I come back from insincere.

Right.

Okay. Wanna go back
in, get your money's worth?

Yeah. I am starving.

Those little hamburgers
are looking good.

I'm allowed to pay for the
food, but I'm too sad to eat.

Z-I-E-G-L-E-R.

He is?

You don't know if he's on
the property at the moment?

No. No, I don't need
to talk to him right now.

No, no message.

No, thank you. You
have a nice day.

Get out of the way. Go.

Sorry. It's just not working.

Excuse me. I'm at the north
gate and the machine is stuck.

- Which gate?
- The north gate.

All right, if everyone's ready.

Folks, this is Duncan Springer.

He's a senior from Mayfield
High School in Las Cruces.

Duncan, have a seat.

Duncan's editor of the school
newspaper and his model U.N. delegation...

represents Kazakhstan.

In fact, Duncan's delegation
was selected to visit the real U.N...

in New York City. Duncan.

- What can you tell us about that?
- Well, it was...

This is Marcie Ramirez.
She's from Moriarty High.

Please.

She's captain of
the debate team.

- What's your strategy gonna be, Marcie?
- I think...

This is Franklyn Pickett.

He's from Monzano
High. Please have a seat.

Franklyn is school president.

And he wrote a play.

- What can you tell us about your play?
- It's...

- How did you get interested in Ethiopia?
- Well...

- What's it like working with elders?
- It was...

- Raymond, how'd you manage that?
- I've...

All right. Things are
becoming much clearer now.

Can I let them go?

- Have they had lunch?
- Yes.

Unless there's any
additional questions?

- Oh. Did they all get the...?
- Yes.

Great. Thank them
again before leaving.

- Of course.
- Here's where we are.

Raymond Chen, six votes.

Duncan Springer, six votes.

Marcie Ramirez, five votes.

Franklyn Pickett, Teodora Moon,
Tristan Bulger, three votes each.

And Kristy Esposito, one vote.

Well, looks like we have
three scholarships to give...

and three front-runners, so
unless there's any disagreement...

- I think we can...
- Mm.

Uh, Jimmy?

Uh, yeah.

Uh... The one vote for
Kristy Esposito, that was me.

And for what it's worth, I think
we should give her another look.

Esposito, that's the shoplifter.

The shoplifter?

Yeah. That's right.

I mean, her grades are good.

Not quite as good as some of
the other kids, but they're good.

And her
recommendations are solid.

And, yeah, she's
had some trouble.

But she was new in town,
she made some bad choices.

That was sophomore year.

She's had two really
strong years since then.

And have you all read this?

Her essay is...

Well, that experience is what
got her interested in the law.

And it's really good.

It's really good.

And my point is that maybe
someone who's been in trouble...

someone who doesn't
have a perfect record...

you know, who's made mistakes
and faced the consequences...

maybe she brings something
that the others don't.

I think that deserves
real consideration.

Jimmy, you make a
hell of an argument.

How about we take another vote?

Kristy. Miss Esposito. Hold up.

Hey. Jimmy McGill,
hi. We met inside.

Oh, hi.

Hi.

You didn't get it.

You were never gonna get it.

They... They dangle
these things in front of you...

they tell you you
got a chance...

but I'm sorry, it's a lie.

They had already
made up their mind.

They knew what they were gonna
do before you walked in the door.

You made a mistake...

and they are
never forgetting it.

As far as they're concerned...

your mistake is just... It's who
you are. And it's all you are.

And I'm not just talking
about the scholarship.

I'm talking about everything.

I mean, they'll smile at you,
they'll pat you on the head...

but they are never,
ever letting you in.

But listen. Listen.

It doesn't matter.

It doesn't. Because
you don't need them.

They're not gonna
give it to you, so what?

You're gonna take it.

You're gonna do whatever
it takes, you hear me?

You are not gonna
play by the rules.

You're gonna go your own way,
you're gonna do what they won't do.

You're gonna be smart,
you are gonna cut corners...

and you are gonna win.

They're on the 35th floor.
You're gonna be on the 50th floor.

You're gonna be
looking down on them.

The higher you rise, the more
they're gonna hate you. Good.

Good. You rub their noses in it.

You make them suffer.

Because you don't matter
all that much to them.

So what?

So what?

Screw them.

Remember, the
winner takes it all.

I've gotta go get my bus.

Heh. You understand what
I'm trying to tell you, right?

Yes.

I think I do.

All right. All
right, go get them.

Goddamn it. Goddamn
it. Damn it. Damn it.

No.

No.

No.

No. No.

- Can I help you?
- Hey.

My friend was
here earlier. Um...

Bald fellow. About so tall.

Yeah. Did they find his
brother-in-law? Is he okay?

No, no.

No, we haven't found him yet.

We're really worried.

- I'm sorry to hear about that.
- Yeah.

So I was wondering if there's maybe
something that my friend missed.

I showed him
everything I've got.

Show me what you showed him.

Maybe you should
just call your friend.

I did and, you know...

he told me to come back
and take another look.

I'd really appreciate it.

I can't. I'm sorry.

You better just call the police.

Sure. Sure.

Travel Wire, this is Fred.

Fourth Street. Nearest
cross street is Lomas.

10 p.m.

Yeah. Okay. Have a great day.

Thank you.

Ahh.

Is there a Mr. Ziegler here?

- Mr. Werner Ziegler?
- Oh.

Yes. I am Ziegler.

There's a call for you.

Oh. Yeah. I will be
right there. Thank you.

Darling! Have you landed?

Is this Werner?

Yes.

Who is this?

I'm calling on behalf
of Gustavo Fring.

Ah, yes. I see.

Is Mr. Fring very upset?

- What do you think?
- Please let him know...

the work will continue. Did
Michael show him my letter?

I explained everything.

Uh, no. Michael hasn't
shared that with Mr. Fring.

The letter has
specific instructions.

My men will be able to
continue a few days without me.

- The work will go on. Ask Michael.
- Michael.

Michael's very busy and he
asked me to speak with you.

Do you remember what
your instructions were?

Certainly. They are to
finish clearing the debris...

then begin the south wall.

That's the south wall?

The south wall, yes.

The concrete is standing
by, they can start pouring.

It's very straightforward.

Kai will know...

The concrete... Sorry, I didn't get
that last part. Could you repeat that?

Werner?

Werner?

Mr. Ziegler?

Michael.

Is that you?

- I am so sorry...
- Get dressed.

Michael...

I don't wanna hear another
damn word out of you.

Go.

Hey.

- Hey.
- I think I got something here.

Take a look. The problem
might've been starting with remorse...

so I'm trying to work into
it more gradually. Uh...

The law, plans, then remorse...

then brother, then
legacy, what do you think?

- Everything okay?
- Yeah.

How'd it go?

We gave three very bright
young people scholarships.

Good. All right, we
can work on this.

I know it's a lot, but this is one
time you do not wanna wing it.

Yeah.

Jimmy, the hard part's done.

Reading room,
scholarship, cemetery.

They've got to have
heard about some of it.

We set up the dominos and
now you just knock them down.

I can say whatever I want.

To the board,
I'm still "that guy."

Well, you've gotta
say something.

What if...?

What if, um...?

What if Chuck does
the talking for me?

Wait here.

- Yes?
- I got him.

Where are you now?

Out by an old raceway off 55.

About eight miles
north of San Ysidro.

Where was he?

Placed called Dulce Vega
Hot Springs up in Jemez.

It's gotta be where
his wife is headed.

Something else.

Yes?

When I found him, he was on
the phone with an interested party...

pretending to be
one of your guys.

What did he tell them?

Nothing useful.

You're certain?

Yes.

You have any idea who it was?

I do.

- All right. I'll bring him in now.
- No.

Keep him there.

Wait.

I'd go another way.

That I know.

Let it be a mistake.

This discussion
serves no purpose.

Wait where you are.

I'll take care of it.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Goddamn it.

Get out.

I wanna know what
your endgame was.

What did you think
was gonna happen?

I thought I would come
back and my friend Michael...

would be very, very angry.

But in time, he would
understand and forgive.

It was never up to me.

Oh, Michael, look, I know
I've made trouble for you.

And I'm very sorry for
the damage I caused.

I will repair what I broke
with my own hands...

but please, Margarethe
will land any minute.

Soon she will be
at the motel, please.

Take me back there.

Let us be together
for a little, huh?

Let her see me and
know everything is okay.

Ah, please, Michael.

I go back now, I go
back in the morning...

what difference can it make?

It's not gonna happen.

Let me speak to Mr. Fring.
I will explain everything.

I will make him understand.

You're not gonna talk to Fring.

Oh, please. I know. If I...

Werner, nothing you can say or
do will make anyone trust you again.

I will go home.

I will never breathe
a word of this ever.

The money?

I'll give all of it back.

I will tell no one, I swear.

It will be as if...

none of this ever happened.

Please, Michael.

You know I will keep
silent. You know it, please.

Does your wife have
a cell phone with her?

Yes.

I need you to call her now.

- She landed an hour ago.
- But she knows nothing.

And you need to
keep it that way.

She's being followed.

She's followed?

She goes back to the airport,
nothing will happen to her.

- Surely, they could not... They would not.
- Hey, pull yourself together.

Give me the phone,
I call her now.

- Give it to me.
- Calm down. Calm down.

She can't suspect. It doesn't
matter what you tell her...

as long as she goes
back where she belongs.

Darling...

Hello. Yeah.

You...

Oh, you're renting
the car? Oh...

Yes, yes...

I have very bad news.

There is a problem at the site.

Yeah. I've been called back.

What? No...

No, no injured. None,
no. I know. I know. No.

Please, please listen to me.

I am...

I'm not at the motel. I'm
not even in New Mexico.

You're going to have to
take the next flight home.

Margarethe, listen to me.

Margarethe, listen to me.

Shut up, now!

You must go back home.

No! Out of the question.
This is my work. I must do it.

And I don't want to see you at all,
Margarethe. I don't want to see you.

So go back home!
Immediately. Now!

Will she do it?

She was very angry, but yes.

She will go home.

Michael.

If she doesn't hear a word
from me, she will ask questions.

She will go to the police.

There'll be a
story. An accident.

Lawyers will visit.
German lawyers.

Her questions will be answered.

This you swear?

This I swear.

And my men?

They're going home.

They'll be okay.
They're trusted.

Is there no other way, truly?

There are so many stars
visible in New Mexico.

I will walk out there.

To get a better look.

Wow.

I mean...

it's incredible.

I feel like we've been talking
about this forever and now...

here it is.

An architectural feat.

Truly.

Herculean.

This is...

This is...

Yeah.

I can work with this.

I mean, it's not exactly
what we talked about...

but it has possibilities,
even unfinished.

Ventilation, at this
point, is the main hurdle.

But with a series of fans
and the right equipment...

I am certain that I could do a
rudimentary cook at the very least.

Not until it is ready.

Oh.

Of course.

We only wanna do
it if it's done right.

I was just exploring
possibilities.

I am gonna go
up and check the...

Okay.

Oh, hello.

Where do you have it?

This should do it. Chuck
wrote a good letter, huh?

Chuck wrote a great letter.

It's not just the words,
though, you know?

It's how you read them.

Jimmy, whatever
happens in there...

I'm with you.

Mr. McGill, we've reviewed all the facts,
the same facts as the hearing committee.

We've evaluated their findings,
all that's left is for us to hear...

your prepared statement.
So whenever you're ready.

Thank you, Your Honor. I
don't have a prepared statement.

But I do have this. Um...

It's a letter...

from my brother, Charles McGill.

He left it to me in his will.

And I received it last
year after he passed.

"Dear Jimmy...

I have left many things unsaid in
our relationship through the years.

Rather than allow these
unspoken thoughts to die with me...

I've chosen to record
them here for you.

I hope you will take my words in
the spirit in which they are intended.

I remember quite clearly the day
you came home from the hospital.

You can't imagine
the joy on Mom's face.

I can honestly say I
never saw her happier."

I'm sorry. I can't do this.

I was...

I was just gonna try to...

I was gonna try to move you all
with my brother's eloquent words.

You know, pull on your
heartstrings, but it's not right.

This letter's
between me and him.

And it should stay that way.

Listen, my brother Chuck...

you knew him.

He loved me...

in his own way.

He loved me as a brother.

He did not love me as a lawyer.

Big reason I became
a lawyer was Chuck.

He was the most
brilliant man I ever knew.

And an incredible lawyer.

You know? And he
knew exactly who he was.

Exactly.

And all my life, I wanted
to make him proud.

And he was not an
easy man to make proud.

You know, like...

climbing Everest
without supplies.

If you were one of the lucky
few who reached that peak...

even for a moment, if
you made him proud...

wow, what a feeling.

And he let you know it too.

But if you weren't
one of those people...

He was polite enough, but he
did not suffer fools, you know?

And he could be judgmental.

And difficult.

He knew how to
get under your skin.

Hmm.

Could be a real son of a bitch.

Chuck was the one
who was always right.

Always.

And usually, he was.

You know, so for a
guy like me, heh...

I did lousy in school,
I lacked ambition...

I always cut corners.
I mean, for me...

to live up to the standards
of Charles McGill...

I mean, look at me.

I'll never be as moral as him...

I'll never be as smart...

I'll never be as respected.

I'll never be as good as Chuck.

But I can try.

I can try.

If you decide...

and I get to be a lawyer...

I'll do everything in my power
to be worthy of the name McGill.

And if you decide
I'm not a lawyer...

doesn't matter.

I'll still try to be the
best man that I can be.

I'm lucky...

I got this letter.

I never had a chance
to write him a letter...

and to tell him all the
things that I should've.

But I gotta believe
that somehow...

Somehow, he knows.

Well, that's...

That'll have to do it for me.

Sorry.

Thank you.

- I knew you could do it.
- That was so great.

Yes. They... They
have to reinstate you.

- Yeah. Did you see those suckers?
- They have to.

That one asshole was
crying. He had actual tears.

Jesus, Kim.

Listen, I started reading the
letter and I just knew it wasn't...

I could tell by their faces
it wasn't gonna be enough.

So I just went off on
this flow, you know?

I had this energy going through
me, it was like improv or jazz...

and then boom, I
sunk the hook in.

"I'm so lucky I
have this letter."

God, I could see
The Matrix, you know?

I was invincible. I could
dodge bullets, baby.

And you were right. You were
right. It was all about Chuck.

The whole time.

Oh, Mr. McGill,
you're still here.

- There's some good news.
- Believe me. I already know.

Good. If you want to
come with me to the office...

- there's paperwork for you to sign.
- Absolutely. Let's do this thing.

Oh, and, sweetheart, I'm
gonna need one more form.

A DBA. Because I'm not gonna be
practicing under the name McGill, so...

Shouldn't be a problem. Down
the hall, we have all the forms.

Great, great.

Wait. Wait, Jimmy, what?

It's all good, man.
