It's been an intense couple of weeks for fans of the "Breaking Bad" spinoff, as Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) keeps trying to find honorable work even though everything's made difficult to him over and over again, and the "Better Call Saul" season 1 episode 8 works around this idea even further.
There are few details about the "Better Call Saul" season 1 episode 8 for now, as AMC has kept fairly airtight about it, as the first season of the "Breaking Bad" prequel nears its end, much to the chagrin of Saul Goodman's fans.
Before the "Better Call Saul" season 1 episode 8 airs, it's important to recap what happened over the past episode: in it, Jimmy hired Mike (Jonathan Banks) to track the money stolen by the Kettlemans (Julie Ann Emery and Jeremy Shamos) so he could send it to the DA's office and they would go back to being Kim's (Rhea Seehorn) clients, after they'd stormed out of her office when she said they'd have to plead guilty since no jury would believe their story.
In other words, Jimmy had to return the bribe to avoid getting incriminated and ultimately save his friend's career, as Forbes reports.
For now, it is known that the "Better Call Saul" season 1 episode 8 is set to be called "Rico" and it will feature Saul returning to elderly law, the career path he'd chosen a few episodes back, before he'd gotten a huge bribe from the Kettlemans that he had to return to avoid being implicated in their case.
As Penn Live reports, the first promo pictures for the "Better Call Saul" season 1 episode 8 show him surrounded by people in suits, though it is unclear what exactly is Jimmy doing with these people.
You can watch the "Better Call Saul" season 1 episode 8 this Monday night at 10 pm on AMC.
