"What would you do if you had a time machine?" It's a question that comes up multiple times during "Saul Gone," the final episode of the masterpiece that is "Better Call Saul." We first hear it during a flashback to the season 5 episode "Bad Choice Road," where Jimmy and Mike are wandering through the desert hauling 7 million of Lalo's money. While pausing to rest at a watering hole, Jimmy asks Mike what he would do, and where he would go, with a time machine. Mike says he'd like to go back to the first time he took a bribe as a cop, presumably to stop himself from going down that road — and then into the future, to check in on people he cares about. Jimmy, in turn, talks about going back in time to invest in Berkshire Hathaway. Mike wryly observes that all Jimmy seems to care about here is money.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not watched the series finale of “Better Call Saul” Season 6, titled “Saul Gone.”
More than seven years after “Better Call Saul” began, and 13 years after Bob Odenkirk first popped up as the sleazy lawyer in “Breaking Bad,” his story has come to a close — and Saul is behind bars.
After a little United States v. Saul Goodman legal action, the now-reformed Jimmy McGill ended up with 86 years in prison as Walter White’s “indispensable” criminal lawyer. After going down a dark path the past few seasons, Saul finally turned a corner and confessed to all of his crimes, clearing Kim Wexler’s (Rhea Seehorn) name.
So how did we get to this (somewhat) happy ending, at least by “Breaking Bad” standards? The episode started with a flashback to “Better Call Saul” Season 5, Episode 8, where Saul and Mike Ehrmantraut (Jonathan Banks) are trapped in the desert carrying 7 million.

At this point in Season 3, I would rather call show this Better Call Mike.
We must start with the opening scene in Better Call Saul where Mike meets with Gus, and two very important characters from Breaking Bad that we have never seen together, as far as I can remember: Victor and Tyrus. Also, I must give a quick thumbs up for showing the doctor that repaired Gus in Breaking Bad.
So Chuck, Saul's brother, has set him up -- and I already predict where this is going. This will create the name of Saul, as Chuck wants Jimmy disbarred, or rather, his name off the menu. Jimmy and Kim will somehow find a loophole, and Saul will be created. Easy enough.
I'd also like to give a heads up to the director John Shiban, as this show gave us the closest to a Breaking Bad feeling I think we will get for awhile.
