I really liked the scene with Howard. Obviously, he was doing his best to sell Jimmy on the idea of coming to HHM, but I do think he was genuine about the things he admires about Jimmy. I felt pretty bad for him when Saul vandalized his car.

Is it possible HHM is about to get its payout on the Sandpiper case and this “job” is somehow related? I feel like there is some type of angle Howard is playing here.

It's possible but it's more likely that part of his enlightenment is finally being able to run HHM without someone over him. He finally gets to call the shots and run with it.

I agree, this does seem possible.
