Better Call Saul - S2E10

#2 - Klick (Season 2 - Episode 10)

The episode "Klick" of the show Better Call Saul was a heart-wrenching one, especially with the starting scene. Despite being Jimmy's brother, Chuck never treated him with the respect he deserved. Mike's role in the episode was slower than usual, but the scenes between him and Jimmy were incredibly tense. The "DON'T" message was a reminder of Gus Fring's "POLLOS" messages, leading one to believe that the show is headed in that direction.

The ending of the show was absolutely shocking, with Hamlin delivering some unexpected news. Chuck remains one of the most hated characters of the show, even when compared to Breaking Bad. Fans are now anxiously awaiting for season 3 to explore the next chapter in Jimmy's story.

The episode was rated 8.15 from 6294 votes.
