[Editor’s note: The following contains spoilers for “Better Call Saul” Season 4, Episode 8, “Coushatta.”]
Case Summary
Teased at the end of last week’s episode, Kim’s plan to keep Huell out of jail unfolds over the course of the hour, a brilliant multi-pronged strategy that overwhelms the District Attorney’s office with evidence that a previously convicted pickpocket is the pride and joy of small town Coushatta, Louisiana. Not only does Jimmy make a cross-country trek to create the illusion of a “Miracle on 34th Street”-esque letter-writing campaign, but his vast store of burner phones allow for his crack team of New Mexico university student helpers to assist in selling Huell as a beloved figure of the town.
The outside pressure and Jimmy’s talent for theatrics get Huell off the hook, but while Jimmy knows all too well what a huge risk they took, Kim is on fire, and Mesa Verde or pro bono work isn’t satisfying her anymore.
