There's a serious matter to discuss.

Of course, Don Juan.

You may have noticed that some of the product is...

Altered.

Gustavo will explain.

I have a confession to make.

A man was working for me.

On the legitimate side of my business.

He was supervising a construction project.

A German engineer.

I think you know his name.

Werner Ziegler.

Through an oversight,

Ziegler became aware of our other activities.

The temptation was too great for him to resist,

and he stole two keys of product.

I believe you know the rest of the story.

You know of Ziegler's escape.

You know that my man tracked him down.

My shame...

Is not simply that I allowed this to happen.

It's that I hid the truth.

When I discovered what Ziegler had done,

I replaced the stolen product

with methamphetamine I purchased locally.

Some of this inferior product went to your organization.

And for that...

I must apologize.

Sincerely.

What construction project?

I mean, you said the German was building something.

What?

Ah.

their leader has gone home.

(TOOL WHIRS)

Nothing was keeping you from sharing all this.

A lot of trouble could have been avoided.

GUS: Yes. There were any number of misunderstandings.

My man didn't know who was following him.

And as a result,

he went to great lengths to conceal his activities.

Your man... Michael, is that right?

Yes.

That's not him, is it?

It is.

Well, I'd love to say hello, if that's permitted.

Well, certainly.

Well...

That explains everything.

I am glad you are satisfied.

DON JUAN: Listen to me.

There must be no more trouble.

You two must co-exist.

This is non-negotiable.

Gustavo, there can be no more secrets.

Yes.

Don Eladio is not happy.

Do you understand what I'm telling you?

Then we are done.

Well, what, um... JIMMY: Excuse me. Excuse me.

Please let me through.

Uh, that's my client you're talking about.

And you are? I'm Saul Goodman,

The Albuquerque D.A.'s office

You're who?

I'm Saul Goodman.

And we are countersuing you

for malicious persecution, unlawful detention,

So, if I go to trial, you'll be my lawyer, right?

But you'll be my lawyer.

Yes, but going to trial would be a mistake.

Trials are always unpredictable.

At trial, the D.A. will throw everything at us.

You'd just be rolling the dice. Yeah. Roll the dice.

Yeah. I mean, I don't mean to tell you your business, Miss Wexler,

but you put me up there,

I give the people the big eyes,

they see Lois here and the kid,

y'know, they gonna believe me. I'd believe you.

Bobby, there are a million reasons not to go to trial.

But it's up to me, right?

Yes, it is, but I'm advising you not to.

Odds are you would end up going away for more time,

not less.

And I am talking about years of your life.

But I might not, right?

You don't want to take that risk.

Maybe I do. Lois...

Whatever Bobby says.

(DOOR OPENS)

Excuse me a moment.

Please...

Think this over carefully.

Both of you.

You ready for lunch?

There's a new sandwich vending machine

down by family court. I've heard good things.

Sorry, I'm stuck here.

Really? What's up?

He's not taking the deal.

Who? That guy? (SIGHS)

Isn't he the punk who tried to sell

a flatbed of hot mini-fridges to an undercover cop?

What'd you get him?

Five months. Five months?

With his priors?

Well, he should be on his knees thanking you.

I'm trying to talk him out of going to trial.

No! Seriously?

Seriously.

(SCOFFS) You know what?

(SIGHS) No.

No. We can fix this.

I'm from the D.A.'s office, okay?

I'm giving you what for. You're giving me what for.

We'll be loud. We will go over there.

We will make a scene, okay?

Uh...

New evidence has come to light,

and I'm pulling his deal with extreme prejudice.

I... I'm pissed.

I wanna put him away permanently.

(VIDEO GAME BEEPING) (SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

JIMMY: ...third-degree felony...

(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

But you fight me, I will push back hard.

We'll have that punk on his knees

begging for the five months.

(SIGHS)

I don't think so. Yeah, come on, Kim.

We can do this. Lead-pipe cinch.

He's the client. It's his decision.

What good is it gonna do

to put that dweeb away in Los Lunas, huh?

You think he's a jackass now?

Wait till he gets back from that clown college.

Jimmy, it...No. Yeah, but what about his wife and kid?

That's them, right? What about them?

If this isn't using our powers for good, I don't know what is.

We're not doing that. But, Kim, we can do it.

It'll work. I am not scamming my client.

But it worked for Mesa Verde...

Jimmy, back off.

Well, y...

(CHUCKLING) Okay.

(EXHALES SHARPLY)

Um...

Yeah, I'll see you at home.

(FOOTSTEPS DEPART)

So, who was that?

Is everything all right?

(SIGHS)

He's from the district attorney's office.

They're taking the deal off the table.

Uh, so what?

I mean, we weren't gonna take it anyway, so...

Miss Wexler, why are they taking it off the table?

I... don't know for sure.

It's possible they have new evidence.

Like... Like... Like.. Like what?

Like cameras or... Or witnesses or...

I really couldn't say.

We'll find out soon enough.

Bobby, I'm sorry.

It looks like they want to make an example out of you.

Uh...

All right, well, we better go tell the judge

that we're taking this to trial.

Yeah, yeah, you know what? Um...

Are you sure we still can't get the five months?

The D.A. took that off the table.

You mean if you... Even if you asked real nice?

I could try.

Are you sure that's what you want?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

I thought about it, just like you said, and...

I could do the five months.

Miss Wexler, please?

(SIGHS)

Wait here.

I can't promise anything, but...

I'll look into it.

Sure, sure. You do that.

We'll... We'll be right here.
