In this episode: Jimmy McGill (2), Kim Wexler (1), Mike Ehrmantraut (1), Nacho Varga (1), Lalo Salamanca (1), Werner (1)

[Jimmy spends the night in his nail salon office stressing about his relationship with Kim when Mrs. Nguyen finds him]

NMrs. Nguyen

Leaving now. You stick around?

Oh, yeah. I have—I'll be here a little longer. I'll lock up when I go. Is that alright?

NMrs. Nguyen

[pause] Wife mad at you?

She's not my wife... I don't know.

NMrs. Nguyen

Yeah, she's mad at you. [pours wine into a glass and offers it to Jimmy] Go on. [Jimmy reluctantly takes a sip] You take her to dinner. Nice place with a waiter. Cloth napkin. You bring flowers. You say sorry. Then, say sorry again. Whatever she says, you say sorry.

I think we might be past that.

NMrs. Nguyen

[pause] I'll leave the bottle.

[Mike comes up to Werner after the crew's night off]

Everyone seems much improved! This "R&R" was a good idea, Michael. [chuckles, looks around] Something the matter? [Mike hands him the coaster he sketched on] This? Oh, don't be concerned, I said nothing! Men at a bar, talking to make talk, and look: no details, no scale at all. Could be a skyscraper, could be a box for shoes. [beat] I said nothing about the construction that would not be true for thousands of others. By now, they have forgotten me entirely.

[sounding skeptical] "They forgot". The German national in the middle of Albuquerque, talking about pouring hundreds of tons of concrete at a secret underground location?

Eh, you're right. I'm sorry, Michael, I had too much beer... and I may have said more than I should have.

Listen to me. Carefully. The man we're working for is very serious; think about the precautions we take to keep everything that goes on here quiet. Think about how much money you're making. Think about what happens if something goes wrong. Do you understand what I am saying to you?

...I do understand. And I'm sorry to cause any problem. You have my word. Nothing like this will happen again.

Okay. [takes the coaster] Let's get you to work.

So, what's up?

Nothing... just driving around, thinking about things.

[pause] Listen, Kim. I—I know what's on your mind. The thing that we did: I mean, it was nuts, and I dumped it in your lap. Ex parte communication, contempt of court... I mean what, talking about a couple hundred counts of mail fraud? I could've wrecked you at Schweikart; I could've boned me, too. I mean, I'm this close to being reinstated. I mean, come on. [Kim stares off vacantly] Kim... don't worry. No one's gonna know about it, it'll be like it never happened. And, also, I agree—We are totally done with all that, over and out, no more.

...Let's do it again.

[Nacho arrives at El Michoacano to the sound of loud music and an unfamiliar face cooking in the kitchen. He looks at Krazy-8 before walking into the kitchen. The dialogue switches between Spanish and English throughout]

Oh, hey! [in Spanish] You're here! Right on time. [in English] Hold on, one second. You are going to love this. I made this just for you! [in Spanish] Never in your life have you tasted something so delicious, it's true. Wait, wait... You're gonna die. [offers plate of food to Nacho]

[beat; in Spanish] No, thank you.

[in Spanish] Smell it! You can't say no, are you crazy? [in English] I used epazote, man! Come on! [pause; in Spanish] Very well. You're not hungry. That's your problem. This is a special recipe... a family secret.

The Salamanca family?

Them! [in Spanish] I am Eduardo, [in English] but you can call me Lalo. [in Spanish] And you must be Varga, no? They told me you were smart. And look... Here you are, and you are.

What are you doing here?

I'm just here to lend a helping hand, you know? Make sure the business is running in order. I got a— I got a good head for numbers, but listen... Don't even worry. It's gonna be like I'm not even here. [sits down besides Krazy-8] Come on, Varga, let's go!
