History YMMV / BreakingBadS2E8BetterCallSaul

** [[spoiler: Nacho ends up killing himself in the third episode of season six, which means Saul never found about that and makes himself look worse, pinning blame on a dead man.]]

** Walt doing his best to save Badger from a prison sentence but being horrified at Saul's suggestion to whack him beforehand became this in Season 5, when [[spoiler: Walt plans to kill all of the surviving members of Gus's operation in prison simply in order to stop paying them, which Mike stops him, and then actually carrying out the prison murders when Mike dies and the prisoners become a liability.]]

** Saul's FreakOut during Jesse and Walt's plan to scare him stops being comical and becomes disturbing after you watch the prequel/spin-off ''Series/BetterCallSaul''. First the skateboarding twins and Tuco in the episode "[[Recap/BetterCallSaulS1E2Mijo Mijo]]" and then the whole plot involving Lalo in Season 5. What at first seemed like Saul simply fearing for his life is actually Saul thinking Lalo's men have decided to finally kill him, especially after he says that whatever they think he did, Ignacio (Nacho Varga) was the real one to blame.

** Walt doing his best to save Badger from a prison sentence but being less than horrified at Saul's suggestion to whack him beforehand became this in Season 5, when [[spoiler: Walt plans to kill all of the surviving members of Gus's operation in prison simply in order to stop paying them, which Mike stops him, and then actually carrying out the prison murders when Mike dies and the prisoners become a liability.]]

** Nacho ends up killing himself in the third episode of season six, which means Saul never found about that and makes himself look worse, pinning blame on a dead man.

* HarsherInHindsight: Saul's line, "Conscience gets expensive, doesn't it?" seems a lot more knowing on his part when you know that [[spoiler: years ago, Saul AKA Jimmy had [[Recap/BetterCallSaulS1E7Bingo come into possession of enough money to set him up for life]], but returned it to its rightful owner because it was "the right thing". The line actually comes from Mike saying the exact same thing to Jimmy after he gives the money up.]]

* WhatAnIdiot: Badger realizes he's probably getting set up as part of a drug sting when he notices what look like surveillance vehicles parked nearby, and the customer he's selling to is a little confident in himself.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' He'd walk away and go back later for the drugs.\\
'''Instead:''' Badger being [[TooDumbToLive Badger]], the undercover cop manages to get him to fall for the old [[MustStateIfYoureACop "undercover cops can't deny that they are cops when asked directly" urban legend]].\\
'''As a Result:''' Badger goes through with the deal and is promptly arrested.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Saul, who ended up becoming a BreakoutCharacter by virtue of receiving a [[Series/BetterCallSaul spinoff]].
