Among the drama reviews I have written so far, "lawyer" has the highest response rate. Thank you for your support ~ During the discussion and exchange, some people also raised different and opposing voices. Afterwards, I was quite inspired: the richer the life experience, the more enjoyable it is to watch this drama, and we have different perceptions of life, which means that the sparks from the collision of ideas will be more exciting. The eighth episode is very similar to the sixth episode, but it is still multi-headed. It is divided into six lines, which are independent and related . Each story is very interesting, but the protagonist Jimmy still has the most drama - a memory plus The last two times I made money lying down, let us understand more about how Saul Goodman was developed.
Mike: Atonement, Occupation
Every time I like to start with Uncle Mai...
At the end of the last episode, the mystery that Mike asked Nacho for "one thing" was solved. It was neither helping Anita find the whereabouts of her missing husband (the unresolved case 8 years ago was unrealistic), nor was it a means to assist in the assassination of Hector. It was for Nacho to inform the burial of the murdered good-hearted passer-by.
In fact, it is not far from the location where he ambushed the driver.
The good-hearted passerby was killed by Hector precisely because he notified the "friends and relatives" of the kidnapped driver. More or less, there were all the sins of Mike, and now, the passers-by's relatives are also suffering the same as Anita. Pain, in order to alleviate the sins on his own body, Mike must let the other party's corpse see the light of day again.
After calling the police, the relatives of the kind passers-by will be relieved of "long pain is better than short pain", and Mike's psychological pressure will also be relieved a lot.
After that, Mike has to solve another hidden danger , that is, the remaining drug money of about 200,000 US dollars. These money that cannot be spent casually are quite hot. If he has an accident, his family must not know the money, otherwise it is Misfortune is not a blessing.
Mike hesitated again and again, but decided to go to Gus for help. He knew that the other party opened a fried chicken shop to launder money.
The last time we met, Gus had already proposed a solicitation, but Mike gave an ambiguous response. This time he pretended that it never happened, and just wanted to make a "one-time deal" with Gus.
Mike's mentality is obviously a bit of a chicken thief, and Gus also bluntly said: It is very unwise for us to openly contact us. If people from the Salamanga family find out, everyone will not be able to eat and walk away.
Although we have had "cooperation", it is not worthwhile to take such a big risk for me to help you wash money once.
But then, Gus changed the subject again and said, "Maybe there is a way, it's a little more troublesome, but it can be arranged properly..."
The meaning is very clear. You promise to be my person, and the two sides will become a comprehensive strategic partnership. Then your business will naturally be mine. Thinking about it in the long run, it doesn't matter if it is troublesome .
Up to this moment, Mike still didn't want to "accept his fate" , and proposed to use 20% of the money as a reward, and Uncle Fried Chicken directly replied, " I won't take your family's money ."
Gus's words are too high-level, and they contain a lot of meaning: I don't agree, I don't like this money, not to mention this is the life-saving money you left for your family when you are in crisis. Yes, I know everything about you. I respect you as a person, but this matter is not negotiable...
So how do you choose Mike? Accept your fate and accept the favor of the big boss.
Watching smart people talk with smart people is a pleasure. One sentence can be worth five sentences by ordinary people . Although the confrontation between Mike and Gus, although there are not many words, it is full of conflicts and metaphors. It's enough to know it - it is precisely because of the congenial temperament that Mike, a retired policeman, can half-assume a partner of a professional criminal like Gus.
Nacho: Nervous...
The part about Nacho's "change of medicine" for Hector belongs to the "dazzling skills" that the crew will come every three to five times .
With empty capsules in hand, Nacho's fine pharmacy begins...
After making enough capsules that can be fake and real, he moved to a stool to hang his coat, and practiced the skill of "suddenly throwing".
On the eve of the daily collection, Nacho secretly made an air conditioner failure. When Hector was unbearably hot, he naturally took off his coat and put it on the back of his chair. Everything went as planned ...
After receiving the money, he pretended to suspect that he had received a counterfeit bill, took the opportunity to come to Hector's side, and then "accidentally" lost the money. After apologizing, he quietly confirmed which pocket the medicine jar was in while he was picking up the money, and then took the money. Walk.
The atmosphere was great , I was so nervous!
There is an interesting detail before and after the dressing change. The two small distribution leaders came to pay the money, and the little eight with a bruised nose and a swollen face said hello and said goodbye. Only he knew what he was thinking. Arrogant, he just said casually when he left, glanced at Hector and didn't speak.
One is cautious, full of fear, and the other is arrogant and careless. There is really a big problem in the business of the Salamanga family.
Nacho pretended to count the money, secretly changed the capsules in the medicine jar, and looked at the counterfeit medicines in several boxes of varying amounts, and really admired Nacho's careful thought and preparation .
Finally, when the dressing was finished, Nacho got up to refill Hector's coffee, and as he passed by, he quietly threw the medicine jar back into his right pocket, bingo, a success!
Seeing Nacho's breath of relief, and his hands still shaking afterward, the audience's whole emotions were fully aroused.
The simplest play, harvest the purest sensory experience.
Chuck: I want to be normal!
For the time being, don't think about Chuck's personality and style, his words and deeds in this episode are simply standard inspirational chicken soup .
After the efforts of him and Dr. Cruz, the "electromagnetic hypersensitivity" has been relieved a lot. He thinks that he no longer needs special care and can return to the court. He has not defended the case for nearly three years.
" I'm going to turn these lights back on, I want to fill the house with music, I want a dinner party, a big celebration, I want to invite a hundred people over, the crowd fills the lawn, I want a treat and a full Bar, I want to be surrounded by friends and colleagues. ”
His previous morbidity and gaffe made Chuck fully aware that he was already a "loner", the only two remaining close relatives had left him, and his friends and colleagues would no longer spoil him... After all, people are social animals , Chuck fears total loneliness.
While affirming Chuck's progress, the doctor advised him not to be too eager for quick success and to know how to relax properly.
Chuck also asked the question everyone has: "The disease seems to be very real, but what if it's all fake? If it's not real, what have you done? "
This is a terrible question that I dare not think about, but once I think about it, I can't help but keep thinking about it.
Out of this idea, Chuck intensified his desire to "heal" himself as soon as possible——
He gave himself an even bigger problem, going to the supermarket to shop. Automatic doors, lights, appliances, freezers... It 's just Chuck's Shura field.
Watching Chuck's way to get the soy milk was like setting up a row of "knife gates" for him. Seeing that Chuck was about to fail... But in the end, he survived!
Originally went home happily and felt in great shape, but the arrival of Howard broke his good mood.
Yes, Jimmy's troubles at the insurance company are starting to work, and Chuck's just getting better life is having another hard time...
Kim: Guilty, guilty!
Jin's scene is very interesting. It is full of contradictions and entanglements from beginning to end . We have seen changes, but we also found that there are some qualities that she is destined to never change.
In the restaurant, Kim and Howard met unexpectedly. They could have pretended not to have seen each other and talked about their own affairs, but Howard couldn't help but come up to say hello : " She was reviewing the number of hours of document registration. I still remember the scene, and it’s always so gratifying to see the people I’ve cultivated are full-fledged and independent .”
If the two of them were able to maintain a harmonious relationship in face before, after the hearing in episode 5, Howard really hated this little lawyer who had been cultivated by himself.
On the surface, it was a greeting, but it was actually a disgusting gesture of hiding a needle in the cotton , which could be felt from Howard's insistence on telling Jin to "sit and pin it up".
Jin didn't show weakness, and immediately put the customer aside to pay back - the question is, it's fine for you to go back, but what does it mean to write a check to others?
What Huihui Jin said makes sense. After all, it was HHM who paid off the tuition for law school back then. Now that I have the ability to pay it back, I will not owe you any more . [Note: The time is determined to be March 4, 2003]
Howard also hit the nail on the head: you were very calm when you left . Therefore, I think Jin wrote this check, I am afraid that it is not only a demonstration, but also has a guilty conscience, guilt, and compensation .
"I'm stopping my losses, I've been talking to every client three meals a day for the past two weeks, and I've been busy trying to save the law firm's reputation because you and Jimmy disgraced us ."
In my impression, Howard seems to have never been so rude. It can be seen that Jimmy and Kim kept engaging in Chuck, and even caused much damage to HHM, and even he could not hold back...
That's why Howard made so many "abnormal" actions such as ridicule, questioning, blame, and tearing checks.
"Kim, your debts are forgiven, but everything else is your fault. "
Having said all that, the former boss and employees were completely torn apart, and Jin's guilty behavior led to a break between the two sides.
"Jimmy and I are just showing the truth, and if you hide it from the client, Howard, that's your responsibility."
Originally wanted to ease up and make up for the old club, but I didn't expect it to be self-defeating, and the trouble broke up. Jin finally threw the pot back to Howard. Isn't it another expression of guilty conscience?
Jin is essentially a person who is principled and right and wrong, but her choice makes her have to continue to be a villain, and this contradiction will make her collapse sooner or later.
Kim & Jimmy: They're so close to each other
Jimmy got the advertising fee by all means, and now he has money again, and he can "not pay for five buckets of rice" for the time being.
The first thing he did was to quickly take out the "share money": "That's half of my money, the money for the next six weeks, so we don't have to talk about it."
Before the rent was due, Jimmy was in a hurry to give the next sum of money, when he should have been very poor, and there was something strange here.
Jimmy's core idea is one, " no one owes anyone ". Although he immediately realized that his tone was wrong and apologized immediately, the two of them still felt a change in taste.
" You don't have to push yourself so hard, you can rest , let your back get better, and then do community service. After this matter, don't worry, plan the next step, I can bear our expenses first ... I have seen the numbers. , I can feed the two of us, for the time being, until you are fully recovered ."
If Jimmy can agree to Jin at this time, maybe their relationship can be warmed up and the relationship can be adjusted to a good state...
However, Jimmy's answer was to let the two of them "find a way" to get their own half, and that's it, there's no need for one to take care of the other.
Jimmy worried that he owes money? Afraid of being told to eat soft rice? Or do you simply want to maintain the "fake" that you are still living comfortably? Maybe both.
But once this attitude was put out, the distance between him and Jin was even further, and the sense of strangeness also struck. When Kim left, Jimmy continued to ask, " Do you believe me? "
Of course Kim replied " yes ".
After returning to his office, Kim immediately asked Francesca to cancel the information about Gatwood that was going to be sent right away - this was a commission from the client Kevin, and Kim should have been a matchmaker and introduced the business to other colleagues. , but after a communication with Jimmy, she changed her mind and took this business to herself, regardless of her already busy status ...
Obviously, Jimmy's "clear account" attitude stimulated her and made Jin feel a lot of pressure.
If Kim and Jimmy were still lovers who could help each other in the same boat, then they are now more like accomplices who care about each other...just accomplices...
There is another small detail here. Francesca was almost discovered by Jin when she secretly read the magazine. It can be seen that after Jimmy's large number of customers is missing, she is really busy-how about Jin's diligent housekeeping who wants to fire her? Or is it that Jimmy, who still insists on hiring her, has a sense of love?
Jimmy: Lie down and make money~
The story of Jimmy in this episode can be pondered as the central idea of the whole lawyer, that is to choose to be a poor and honest good person, or a rich and treacherous bad person?
The flashback at the beginning is already on point. Jimmy and Mark returned to the commissary where Father Jimmy closed down, just to take away a box of collectible coins that was hidden in the ceiling.
By the way, Jimmy explained the reason for collecting it back then. The old man was a stupid and good man. He struggled for a long time for a valuable 25 cents, so he let it disappear : "Since then, I will check the cash register every day after school. If something special appeals to me, I put it in a box and put it on it for good luck."
The little friend Mark felt sorry for the closure of the store, but Jimmy didn't feel sorry at all, because in his opinion, his parents shouldn't have done this business in the first place, "My dad doesn't have that ability."
You can refer to the exposition of the liar "Wolf and Sheep" at the beginning of my review post, "Breaking Lawyer" S3 review + warm-up: Coquettish Jimmy, be the most authentic self Jimmy's life creed has been set since he was a child.
Mark is very puzzled by Jimmy's statement, why? Obviously your parents work so hard.
"Yeah, they work hard, they work long hours, year after year, for nothing ."
In the eyes of many ordinary people, Jimmy's father is diligent and benevolent. He has many customers and everyone likes him. There should be "good rewards" ... But Jimmy said the reality:
" Everyone likes him because he's a soft persimmon , you know? All the defaulters around here owe him money , and you come here with a tear-jerking story, and when you leave, he pats you encouragingly and sends you back Your gallon of milk."
A sincere and enthusiastic good man like Daddy Jimmy will be respected and loved by good people, but for bad people, they will only mock and bully such unprincipled idiots.
The first half of the sentence is still very reasonable, but the second half of the sentence is immediately crooked : "He could have maintained it, he could have sold beer and cigarettes to school kids, but he couldn't do that, he never did. Neither will do what they have to do .”
...It's hard to judge Jimmy's thoughts, he can tell right from wrong, but he always confuses right and wrong . Dad lost money because of his stupid kindness. The best solution in his mind is to do illegal things and do evil together .
Instead of being a good person who will be calculated at any time, it is better to be a bad person who takes advantage. My own experience tells Jimmy: Good people are not rewarded, and hard work will not necessarily make you rich.
And whether it's Jimmy who clearly remembers what the customer bought at the checkout at the age of twelve, or whether another police car will drive by, all of which show his ability to remember and be cautious - good or bad Bad, Jimmy must be a smart guy.
Going back to the present, the free commercials shot for the musical instrument store brought significant traffic. Jimmy decided to strike while the iron was hot and proposed a "jumping price" of $6,500 for seven commercials, but the TV station's offer was $450 each.
Even if it made a good start, but the price was more than doubled at once, it was indeed Jimmy Lion who opened his mouth... But the attitude of the two bosses showed that they were not good birds , and they were not even willing to pay the moral $450. , and also openly said that he can also shoot commercials.
You don't make trouble, are you? I'm not good either. "Merry Jimmy" is back -
Flip (really), touch porcelain, get injured, call an ambulance, do you two have insurance? ... When it comes to cheating, extortion, and taking advantage of money, I am your grandfather Jimmy.
Just one fall, Jimmy sold seven advertisements with the overlord clause easily, and made money while lying down. Before An Xin went to the law firm to do errands, he didn't always come here in the long years of his youth. ?
This success further fueled the evil fire that Jimmy was gradually burning.
When I was doing community service, I was lazy and the small drug dealer wanted to leave, but was stopped by the labor reform foreman, which made Jimmy, who had already tasted the sweetness, couldn't help but come up with a plan .
"You can get me out of here, and you can still get work hours, just give me $700." The small drug dealer agreed with Jimmy with the mentality of being a dead horse and a living horse doctor (I doubt whether this guy is the unfortunate one in the little eight mouths who was caught. Horse boy).
Lying on the ground and angering the foreman, he threatened to sue him, after all, everyone is in a "country of freedom and the rule of law".
Jimmy first said that he was going to bring others to file a class action lawsuit, intentional mental injury, physical injury, malfeasance, how serious it was, and then used legal fees, litigation time, garage pension and other things to scare the other party, and then told him the reality: " Look . , here, you may be the boss, but in court, you are nobody ."
I can afford it, you can't, so I'll show you an easy way out, "Either say goodbye to everything you have, or you send my friend to the hospital to visit his sick daughter, and the one who hurt me. Take a break and don't deduct our working hours."
The King of Hell is good to see, but the little devil is difficult to deal with. There are small officials with chicken feathers as arrows everywhere in ancient and modern times, but as long as the right medicine is prescribed, they are also easy to deal with . Obviously, Jimmy has taken over the foreman of the reform through labor.
Seeing that the small drug dealer had succeeded, he was immediately ecstatic, gave Jimmy $700 very readily, and left after making a phone call - is he really in a hurry to visit because his daughter is hospitalized? Or lie to gain sympathy, but actually go to the joint to pay the drug money and pick up the goods? No one knew, and Jimmy didn't care.
Jimmy only knew that with his three-inch tongue, he earned 700 yuan plus working hours for rest services in just a few words ...
Being down-to-earth and hard-working may not always bring good rewards, but you can easily earn a lot of money by being abducted and telling lies - it was so hard in the past, why bother.
Through these two lying down to make money, plus the three deep-rooted views from childhood to adulthood, Jimmy will have the following two understandings:
1. You can easily make money by taking shortcuts and tricks, and it has always been so;
2. Criminals earn better money. They are rich enough and generous.
