Then yesterday's episode should have been in color.

I wish they never did black and white for the Gene timeline. They didn't do any B&W for BB flashbacks (just the for a few minutes here and there for season 2 teasers).

This is a good sumary of it. It's a stylistic choice. Seems like most have no problem with it, but I could understand not wanting to watch a black and white tv show.

It could also always be in black and white since he is living without Kim - but then you may counter with why aren't Breaking Bad Saul scenes in black and white (despite not yet even having a BCS show). The writers wouldn't be able to win with you, your preference is your preference. It's possible we understand it better in a future episode.aTmAg said:Then yesterday's episode should have been in color.

November 12th is Jimmy's birthday. They showed his license I think in the episode they get married and it shows his birthday as 11/12/1960. I think that will surely play in to the Gene timeline. I'm thinking it could be the one day a year Kim calls him, but also he tells Francesca "tell'em Jimmy sent you," which would not make sense if it is Kim since she is well aware of Francesca and her connection to Jimmy.Complete Idiot said:Saul and Walt get "disappeared" in March 2010.Hey Nav said:

When packing up his office and destroying evidence in March 2010, Saul tells Francesca to be ready for a call November 12th at 3PM. Said as in "that year". So Francesca to get called by someone on November 12th, 2010. November 12th 2010 was a Friday, that date wasn't their wedding anniversary or anniversary of scam leading to special tequila bottle, I couldn't find any significance to the date.
Gene and the security guard talk about Martinez's record freshman passing record in the Oklahoma State game that occurred Oct 23rd, 2010. So that is getting close to November 12th. Of course, no guarantees there aren't flash backs or flashforwards in next 3 episodes to fill time - that call might be in the final episode.

Nice! That is correct, that is his birthday - great catch. He has no family to call him, Marco is dead, so I think it's fair to guess it would be Kim calling. Any ideas as to who else it could be? I'm not sure why Jimmy would plan to call someone ELSE on his own birthday, so I don't think it's Jimmy calling the number on November 12th. Having said THAT, it's common for people to call on a birthday but not at a specific time of day, so perhaps that alludes to the fact the call from Kim (or whoever) has to be clandestine and it's a pay phone or something similar being called? I know, I know - just be patient and watch.Topher17 said:November 12th is Jimmy's birthday. They showed his license I think in the episode they get married and it shows his birthday as 11/12/1960.

Didn't really feel any need but the recording starts with the end of the previous show so I start fast forwarding and if it stops past the 10 second opening sequence I don't go back & rewind to watch it, especially when they usually don't change from one week to the next.Ervin Burrell said:I find it funny you feel the need to fast forward through a ten second opening theme.Know Your Enemy said:I was aware that the opening sequence has been breaking down little by little with each season but must have fast forwarded over it last night.

Saul:
Okay, when the cops come talk to you - and they will - what are you gonna tell them?
Francesca:
Talk to my attorney.
Saul:
Yeah.
(SAUL DIGS A CARD OUT OF HIS WALLET AND HANDS IT TO FRANCESCA)
Tell them, uh, Jimmy sent you.
Okay. Where are you going to be on November 12th at 3 PM?
Francesca:
I'll be there, but if it doesn't ring at 3 on the dot, I'm gone.
Saul:
Don't worry. It's gonna ring.
Someone mentioned a couple pages back that Walt died in September of 2010 - how they know that or how accurate it is, I'm not sure. Walt was in New Hampshire while it was still cold and snowy so that had to be early 2010.Walt Longmire said:
If Saul and Walt got disappeared in 2010, Jimmy is coordinating a call on 11/12/10, and there are references in this episode that place us in Oct 2010, wouldn't Walt still be alive in NH on that timeline? And Jesse is imprisoned cooking for Todd/biker gang? If Walt/Jesse make an appearance in the Gene timeline, wondering how they pull the off? Maybe I have my timelines messed up.

It was snowy when he left, though. I guess he could have been on the road for a while before the showdown at the compound. Seems like that would a long time, though.Ervin Burrell said:Someone mentioned a couple pages back that Walt died in September of 2010 - how they know that or how accurate it is, I'm not sure.
