JIMMY: Christie! Ms. Esposito! Hold up. Hey, Jimmy McGill, we met inside. Hi. You didn”t get it. You were never gonna get it. They dangle these things in front of you. They tell you, you got a chance, but I”m sorry. It”s a lie because they had already made up their mind and they knew what they were going to 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 here, 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 going to give it to you? So what? You”re going to take it. You”re going to do whatever it takes. Do you hear me? You are not going to play by the rules. You”re going to go your own way. You”re going to do what they won”t do. You”re going to be smart. You are going to cut corners and you are going to win. Their on the 35th floor? You”re going to be on the 50th floor. You”re going to be looking down on them. And the higher you rise, the more they”re going to 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. You understand what I”m trying to tell you, right? All right. All right. Go get them.Better Call Saul: Season 4, Episode 10RelatedShareTweetPin

Jimmy: You gentlemen have had a busy week, huh? Bail has been denied. No mystery there. Okay, let”s start at the beginning. Somehow you two are short on priors, so I think I can get the DA to knock the drug charges down to simple possession. We can lay responsibility for the felonies at the doorstep of your unfortunate dependence on hard drugs, but we”re going to have to argue for rehab… Don”t get all in a twist, okay? I”ve heard that there exists certain less than reputable establishments that will provide certification without the pleasure of your actual attendance. I could conceivably find such a place for an additional fee. You go, you don”t go. That”s between you and your God, but you got to tell the judge you”ll go and you got to sound like you mean it.All that”s left is your many, many misdemeanors, which include graffiti, vandalism, littering, public urination. Be that as it may, even misdemeanors add up. So, if I can get you concurrent sentences, you”re looking at 12 months. Now with good behavior and overcrowding, that takes it down to six, maybe five months. That”s minimum security. It”s going to be like taking a cruise, only less danger of drowning. That”s down from five years consecutive or worse if they get this heavy stuff to stick. Now, come on. You do your months, you do a little community service, maybe a year probation and your gold pony boy. Sound good? Great.So, all that”s left is my fee. Okay, so for my time court costs, filing fees… you”re looking at, let”s say about four grand. All in. That is 50% off. Now my normal rate would be four K each. I”m sorry, free lawyer? You”re saying that you want a free lawyer? Did you ever hear the phrase you get what you pay for? You know, nudnick, without me, they”re going to lock you up and throw away the key. I”m sorry, did I say five years? You go ahead and play Russian roulette with a public pretender. You”re going to end up doing a decade in Los Lunas. You twerps even know who I am? I am Saul Goodman. Okay? You think four K is too much? Yesterday I got paid eight-K just for the afternoon. That”s how good I am! I am the real deal. You”re lucky I”m even talking to you. You know what? (he starts to leave)Okay, we”re back on the same page though. Payment. Before you make my headache even worse, no, you cannot pay me with the money you stole. Okay? That cash is exhibit A for the prosecution. So relatives? Anybody you haven”t already fleeced? Grandma? She”s perfect. Okay, so you tell granny, the faster she gets me my money, the faster I work my magic. My wire info is on the back of that card. I look forward to hearing from her.Better Call Saul: Season 5, Episode 4RelatedShareTweetPin

Category: TV Show Role: Kim From: Better Call Saul

KIM: Hi. Can we start over? I went to a real estate office. I found some houses I think you might like. There”s some really nice options in your price range. (showing him the houses) This one”s on half an acre and uh, this one is older, but it has a really good view and the neighborhood”s pretty. I know moving”s a big deal. I”d like to help you out with that myself, if that”s all right with you. I can take off any day this week and I”ll pay for it out of my own pocket. Oh, this one has three bedrooms. I know you don”t want to move, but whatever house you choose will be yours. You”ll own it and the land forever. You”re right, I can”t pretend to understand what you”re going through. I”ve never owned a house. My family never owned one either. We never owned anything. When I was little, my mother used to shake me awake in the middle of the night yelling, “It was time to go.” She was always one step ahead of the landlord. I”d throw my things in a cardboard box and run outside in my pajamas in bare feet. Sometimes it was so cold my toe”s turned blue. (pause) If we”d had a house, I”d never would have wanted to leave.Better Call Saul: Season 5, Episode 3RelatedShareTweetPin
