History Recap / BetterCallSaulS3E6OffBrand

* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: Nacho tries to go easy on Krazy-8 but he is too merciful in front of Hector. When Nacho realizes that Hector thinks him to be weak, Nacho has no choice but to deliver a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown to Krazy-8 or risk Hector thinking that he has no use for Nacho.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Nacho does this to Krazy-8 in response to Hector's comments. But since we all know Walt is the one who ends up killing him, it's safe to assume Krazy-8 survives this.

* StylisticSuck: Jimmy's first commercial as Saul Goodman is as terrible and cheesy as you'd expect it to be, with an overreliance on jump-cuts and star wipes.

* WoundedGazelleGambit: Averted by Jimmy, who just plain doesn't want to help Chuck when Rebecca asks him to - Chuck has pretended to go off the deep end before to entrap him. Though quite what Rebecca thought Jimmy could achieve, after hearing what Chuck's rant, is not clear - Chuck certainly won't be opening the door for Jimmy if Rebecca tried for an hour and failed.

* AskAStupidQuestion: Rebecca asks with complete sincerity what is Jimmy's "excuse" not to go and help his brother out of his reclusion and depression. Well let's just say [[{{Understatement}} there's plenty of reason for Jimmy NOT to help Chuck]]

** Subverted tough, the question falls flat on the audience that knows quite well how justified Jimmy's resentment is, although he is seen very hurt for the whole situation (either his brother's suffering or his backstabbing).

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Nacho is left shaken from Hector making him beat up Krazy-8 for being short on his drug payments. Plus he resists when Hector decides he wants to turn Nacho's father's upholstery shop into a new front business that will recover his drug supply line, reminding Hector that his dad is not in the business. It's especially the latter infringement that convinces Nacho to turn against Hector.

* WhamLine: Call me, [[spoiler: Saul Goodman]]!

* InSpiteOfANail: Despite Hector getting Mike to say that the gun was his in order for him to have a shorter prison sentence, Tuco just had to up and attack several prisoners and a guard, thus extending it.

* VillainousBreakdown: The disastrous outcome of his testimony before the bar causes Chuck to hole himself up in the house and refuse to answer the door. Rebecca spends an hour knocking on the door, and Howard only compels Chuck to let him in when he says he won't leave until they've had a chance to talk.

** Gus inspects the industrial laundry that will eventually become the site of the superlab - and specifically has bought it for that purpose, instead of starting it as a legitimate business and then repurposing it later.

* AskAStupidQuestion: Rebecca ask with complete sincerity what is Jimmy's "excuse" not to go and help his brother out of his reclusion and depression. Well let's just say [[{{Understatement}} there's plenty of reason for Jimmy NOT to help Chuck]]

-->'''Rebecca:''' Your brother is mentally ill. What's ''your'' excuse?.

* HardWorkMontage: Jimmy, as he is now suspended for a year from practising law, has to phone round all his clients and tell them this - and these phone calls are shown as this.

* [[IHaveNoSon I Have No Brother]]: Almost word for word by Jimmy ("not anymore, he's not" when Rebecca points out that Chuck is Jimmy's brother and should be helped), who has ''finally'' decided to cut the cord with Chuck.
* ForeShadowing: Once again Hector takes pills and looks unwell, this time after the news Tuco has just increased his prison sentence with a prison attack - especially as one of the victims was a guard. Closer and closer does he approach to [[DarkLordOnLifeSupport what we all know is coming]].

* OnlySaneMan: Continuing to fill this role, Howard tries to convince Chuck that getting Jimmy suspended for a year is still a win and that continuing the vendetta isn't worth Chuck's time and effort, which would be better spent working toward the future at HHM. But just like last week, Chuck ([[AmbiguousSituation seemingly]]) decides to double down.

* TheBusCameBack: Lydia Rodart-Quayle makes a reappearance, and is shown assisting Gus in scouring the industrial laundry.
* CallForward: Gus inspects the industrial laundry that will eventually become the site of the superlab - and specifically bought it for that purpose, instead of starting it as a legitimate business and then repurposing it later.

* Squick: Nacho, feeling trauma after having to beat Krazy-8 for being short on his payments, is not concentrating on his work when using a sewing machine to create car upholstery and puts the needle though the skin between his thumb and forefinger. The episode shows this close-up.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Nacho is left shaken from Hector making beat Krazy-8 for being short on his drug payments.
