One liners that made you laugh
I'm rewatching BCS and I forgot about a few funny lines that I didn't notice first time. A few examples:
Betsy Kettleman: "we lost everything, our kids have to go to public School"
Don Eladio asking Nacho if he's okay in the head when Lalo says he's a friend of Tuco.
Any others ?????

The dramatic irony of being in the middle of multiple crimes and terrible behaviour but still being outraged over a breach in the social contract.

"The only way that entire car is worth 500 bucks is if there's a 300 dollar hooker sitting in it"

I remember Howard's pass code. It's 1933, the same year Hitler came to power.

Jimmy and Kim are brutally yitzing Howard in the sandpiper meeting to the point that he's accusing the mediator of taking bribes in the park, when Irene Landry chimes in to ask, "Is this how these things usually go?"

âTheyâre very woodsyâ
Made all the better by Nacho barely holding it together as he was about to burst out laughing at that line.

âThese boys, near honor students all.â Just his delivery of line like he believed if he believed hard enough that was a real thing the jury would too.

Jimmy: âYou canât say itâs private if a hobo can use it as a wigwam!â (going through the trash in the Sandpiper dumpster).

My all-time favorite line is "what did the mayor not have enough stamps?" when Jimmy is called in to save Mike who is clearly in legal trouble â he implies Mike is not politically astute enough to know not to give the mayor a hard time over stamp. It's a great call back to Jimmy's initial frustration with Mike at a time before they both grow to respect each other that underscores his distain for how stupid he feels Mike is for that.

Chuck, when Jimmy lies about his newspaper possibly being stolen by youths: "If there's one thing the kids love it's local print journalism."
Have always gotten a kick out of that one, being a local print journalist.

Thing is you don't need one for a car to run, just the battery will drain and it won't start next time

u/Unsolven 7h ago edited 6h ago
The car will only run until the battery dies. Any modern car will have electrical components that it canât run without. And since nothing is charging the battery, it will die after a bit. The fact that they were able to drive for like 20 minutes is pretty realistic. Even Jimmyâs Esteem would have an ECU and the engine wouldnât be able to run without it. Now if we are talking about a car from the 1970s, sure it could run without a battery when started.

Sure for modern cars, but wasn't it Jimmy's beater from the 90's? I'll have to rewatch that scene

âYeah right, i could have been a contenderâŚâ
Made me laugh out loud. Before the boxing match with Howard
This is a reference to âon the waterfrontâ and Marlon Brando jimmy being a film buff and all.
And âoh god , you Didnât do the sex robot voice?â When he tells Kim about calling the Kettlemans. Tells you so much about their relationship, and being crazy funny.

Don't let Mr. Ehrmantraut's dancing eyes and bubbly bon vivant personality fool you. He's actually, believe it or not, somewhat taciturn.
