The big problem is that the central storyline simply isn't going anywhere interesting and is taking too long (not) getting there.

Better Call Saul is one of the best dramas on television because it has no obvious heroes and villains, no one to really root against. (Well, Tuco is pretty much a textbook villain, but everyone else, even Nacho, defies easy categorization.)

Saul has figured out how to have the best of both worlds with this Jimmy/Mike split, even if the transitions can occasionally feel jarring. And that tension between the two halves of the show is emblematic of what Jimmy is going through.

"Rebecca" is less about what happened and more about the reasons why it did. In a show as rich as Better Call Saul, that's more than enough for an episode to take on.

7.5/10

Even an OK episode of Saul is akin to a first world problem: I only feel cheated because I'm simply spoiled by the show the rest of the time.

Capping an hour that was otherwise wonderfully Kim-centric, banged-up-and-bruised Mike was approached at the diner by... the hothead [Tuca's] uncle Hector "Tio" Salamanca.
