I'm pretty sure that's the point. After all this time of careful planning and execution, Gene/Saul does something incredibly stupid, sloppy, and sure to get him caught or at least expose his schemes. And to do it with a guy with terminal cancer who seemed quite nice to him, too; unlike their first mark who was a complete a-hole to Viktor.
I don't think it's a coincidence that Marion just got a laptop and discovered the internet.
Coincidentally
that episode is titled Better Call Saul.
The "Next on..." video over the closing credits did some foreshadowing, which often is a red herring, however.
That's on-brand for him, however.
And it was good seeing Francisca again.
I'm guessing that she's correct in that she's being followed, but doing something like a pointless circle around the block just points out to those following you that you think you're being followed.
He didn’t. Which begs the question - Who really locked the deadbolt? If the tape was placed over the latch, that would have no effect on the deadbolt. Could have been the owner; but unlikely since the other guy had at least entered but then decided not to go through with it. So we assume the owner was out cold. Maybe he’s awakened, locked the deadbolt and is ready to attack “Gene”.
Pretty sure it was after the heist. Also after El Camino. We learned that Walt is dead and that the vacuum cleaner guy had Jesse's car found near the Southern Border.
Anyone else notice the type of mustache Gene has and how it may reflect on his life choices?
I wonder if the cancer type and medicine type may have an effect on how the mark metabolizes the barbiturates? He may have woke up in the tree hours plus since being dropped off.
That happens after the events we'd seen in the Gene timeline, including the mall heist.
