BOOM ! Here We Goooo

Warning: Spoilers
The Hype is real and absolutely relentless for the series finale !

What an episode ! Kim pops back up in her new state. We get to see the phone call from her perspective, and the waterworks just start flowing. Kim is devastated and torned and exposes the truth to Cheryl. We get the sense that nobody will prosecute her for lack of evidence. Rhea Seehorn is once again fantastically gripping and acts her butt off.

Kim and Jesse's scene was an absolute freaking wonder. Holy smokes. That was an absolute blast. All of it with undertones of sadness and nothingness from Kim after her interaction with Goodman. The shield is so far up that he can't see her anymore, making for a tragic piece of storytelling. Florida is on the way...

Now for Gene and Marion. Holy hell that confrontation. You almost get the Blood Money vibe with Walt cornering Hank and the DEA agent being completely furious. I genuinely thought Gene could do the unforgivable at that moment. To save his own skin. But Jeff distracting the cops ended up being Saul's downfall.

At first you think, ah there you go they found a way to subert expectations and Gene will end up safe. But then they find a way to double cross what you think, and Marion reveals herself to be more clever than you think by questioning things and doing a research !

Sensational and eventful. This is how you do it. The cliffhanger is one of the best in TV history. The police is alerted. Gene leaves. The door closes. And everything hushes...
