⚖️ Better Call Saul S04.E05: Quite a Ride

As the machine chews up critical evidence in Saul Goodman's office -- because that's where we are -- we see a collage of the aftermath of the beatdown Saul got from Jesse Pinkman in Breaking BadS05.E11, "Confessions."

Saul lamely gabbles something about rodents nesting in it. Francesca makes her customary "k, weirdo" face.
