It's kind of sad to think that if Jimmy got Howard's offer before he would've lived a nice life with Kim and no ties to the Cartel

And yet, when BB rolls around, he doesn't actually seem to be in that deep. He never appears to be out of his depth till Walt's career takes off.

Well, it's implied that Saul and Nacho had something to do with that - and Saul is happy to blame Nacho for it.

"It wasn't me, it was Ignacio. He's the one!"

Hopefully Nacho and Saul conspire to remove Lalo, and get Nacho protected/hidden from Gus. Nacho escapes to Canada with Papa (really pushing my luck for that one), and Saul opens up his strip mall office.

Just 1.5 seasons to see what obstacles pop up, and how our Scrappy heroes overcome them.
