Temporally Ambiguous Scenes[]

Time References[]

  • In the flashback at the beginning of "Inflatable", magazines are shown whose cover is dated August 1973, including the Time dated August 20. In an interview, Thomas Schnauz indicates that Jimmy is "like nine years old" in this flashback. However, this is an inconsistency as it would place Jimmy's birthdate in 1963 or 1964. Jimmy's birthdate was confirmed to be November 12, 1960 in "JMM", which means that Jimmy would actually be 12/13 in the flashback.
  • During Kim's lunch with Rich Schweikart in "Bali Ha'i", Kim states that she has been with HHM for "ten years last August," most likely putting her start date at August 1992 (or possibly 1991 depending on context). She also states that she worked in the mailroom for six years, which would have her being brought on as an associate around 1998. However, this potentially conflicts with Kim stating that she's in her third year at UNM in the 1993 flashback in "Piñata" if HHM is paying for her schooling. Furthermore, the copy of Kim's affidavit included on the Season 6 Blu-ray states that Kim began working at HHM in 1989.
  • In "Rebecca", Chuck refers to Kim as a fourth-year associate in 2002, implying that she became a lawyer sometime around 1998.
  • Jimmy tells Erin in "Rebecca" that he came in to Davis & Main as a fourth-year, suggesting that he also became a lawyer in 1998, though some time after Kim.
  • According to the script for "Winner", the flashback to Jimmy first becoming a lawyer and celebrating at the karaoke bar takes place "sometime in the year 1998."
  • The Missouri license plate that Gene puts on his car when running away from Jeff has 2012 sticker tags on them ("Magic Man"). This could mean the scene takes place any time between 2010 and 2012 given that Missouri has biennial vehicle registration as an option and Gene wouldn't want to be pulled over by the police for outdated stickers. However, the Nebraska plate Gene removes from his car is shown for a split second to have a 2012 registration sticker - Nebraska has annual vehicle registrations. Some leniency may be required in interpreting these details given other anachronisms in Gene's scenes, including a whiskey bottle with a design only available from 2015, a Cinnabon promotion first available in 2014 and a song playing in the diner first available in 2017.
  • In "Waterworks", while Kim's office computer at Palm Coast Sprinkler appears to be running Windows XP (released 2001), another computer is later briefly shown displaying World of Solitaire (released 2007) running Windows 10 (released 2015) with the new design of Microsoft Edge (released 2019).
  • In "Saul Gone", Saul makes the remark "As Steve Jobs used to say" implying that Jobs is dead by that point.

Trivia[]

  • Walt's 50th birthday appears to be celebrated on a Monday but his official birthday (7th September 2008) would have to be Sunday. ("Pilot")
  • Jimmy's (Gene's) position at the Cinnabon was alluded to in Breaking Bad episode "Granite State".
  • The Post-Show Timeline is only shown during the opening scene of each season premiere episode of Better Call Saul. These brief scenes show what happened to Jimmy following the events of Breaking Bad after he disappears under Ed's disappearing program. This pattern is broken by the episode "Nippy", which is the first full black-and-white episode only featuring Jimmy as his alter ego Gene.
  • In American Greed: James McGill, a brief presentation of Jimmy's college diploma shown that he graduated on May 19, 1998 with a degree of Juris Doctor, however on the Season 4 Blu-ray resume for Jimmy says that he graduated on June 1997.
    • In a Breaking Bad episode Kafkaesque, his college diploma mentions he graduated on May 23, 1984 with a degree of Master of Arts. However, it could implied he simply made a replica with his preferred name Saul Goodman, degree, and date to show he's an experienced lawyer.
  • Although before season 6 it was implied that the Gene Timeline took place years after "Felina" and El Camino, with most prominent time setting suggestions throughout the fandom being at least a few years in the future. With the release of season 6 of Better Call Saul, it was officially confirmed that the Gene timeline took place in late 2010, a mere few months after the finale and El Camino, although many details suggest that this may have been a retcon from the showrunners to add more tension to the series finale, as Jimmy would still be actively pursued by the police in 2010.
