[In a flashback, Kim stands outside Saul's office, attempting to light a cigarette. A man, revealed to be Jesse Pinkman, leans against a wall.]
Hey, yo... Can I bum one of those?
[Kim pauses before offering him the cigarette. Jesse takes one and she lights it for him]
Thanks. [gestures towards the rain] What's up with this shit?
Raining.
Yeah. I dunno, it's... It's crazy! Like, bananas, all this rain. I mean, I thought we were, like, in a desert, y'know? [beat] You're a lawyer, right? [Kim turns to him] Yeah. I recognize you. You defended my buddy, Combo. Christian Ortega? Juvie court, little baby Jesus? I mean, not like a real baby. Just, uh... y'know, one of those things outside of the... church?
Nativity scene.
Yeah.
Knights of Columbus.
I mean, what the hell did he even want that thing for? Huh? I mean, I–I still don't know. Dumbass. I told him he could go to hell for stealing something like that. I mean–But did he listen to me? No. But you... You got him off, like, scot-free. That... That was pretty slick, yo!
Well... Tell him I hope he's keeping his nose clean.
Yeah, yeah. Right on. Absolutely. Uh... Hey, so you having all this expertise and all... This guy, Goodman... [pause] He the real deal? Like, lawyer-wise?
Why do you ask?
I got a buddy in there who's facing some serious time. I mean, not... y'know, not baby Jesus time, but... but serious. You know, he needs top-shelf legal representation. And I tell him that, right? But, you know, he sees this dude's commercials on TV, and this is where he wants to go. I mean, I tell him, "Yo... Emilio, you know, a funny TV commercial's not a sound... basis for, like, you know... [pause] I mean, like, would you go to a doctor to do, like, an operation on you in, like a... On, like your spleen or whatever... All on the fact that those were funny TV commercials? No. I mean, c'mon. How is this any different, y'know?" Anyways... This guy. Any good?
[Kim takes a drag on her cigarette before she flicks it away]
When I knew him, he was.
[She pulls her hood up and runs out into the rain]
