Better Call Saul: Ace Attorney (Spoilers)

To be fair, Chuck's disorder does seem like something straight out of Ace Attorney.

I just noticed that Chuck winced in pain when Jimmy put the empty cell phone on the table in front of him. Great subtle hint to Chuck's illness being psychological and not physiological

“If you had lung cancer...” Hey I understood that reference

The four hit combo after Huell says, "Hour and forty-three minutes. -_-" had me dying.

Damn chuck's acting tho.

I really want a defendant in the next Phoenix Wright game to be accused of defecating through a sun roof

If youre inocent, call phoenix wright, if youre guilty, better call saul

I actually just realized how smart Jimmy is here. He set up two different red herrings for Chuck: his ex-wife being there, and the phone without the battery. And Chuck takes the bait on both of them. He's intentionally making himself look like a bad lawyer relying on simple gambits and it works. He knows that Chuck thinks that he'll go for plays like that because Chuck thinks Jimmy's a bad lawyer and he took advantage of that. Obviously the phone was a ploy, but the ex-wife was subtle enough to make it look like he was on his last legs. Very smart.

"There's a lantern on top of newspapers." Major foreshadowing.

The flashback scene with the grayed out effects is INCREDIBLE dude.

This fits too fucking perfectly, the breakdown at the end is SO perfectly matched to Phoenix Wright games

the music in the back of this really shows just how important audio mixing in a TV show is for setting the tone, particularly the music that plays when Jimmy makes Chuck pull the phone battery out of his pocket. In this video it feels triumphant because of the music, when in the show, with no music accompanying it, it just felt sad.

I really like the part where the camera looks at each person in response to the breakdown

It's amazing how this series even makes the viewer feel like Jimmy is innocent even though you obviously know hes not

9:05 you know how every Ace Attorney has the bad guy freak out in some weird over the top fashion? This is Chuck's freak out.

This was the kind of stuff you missed out on in Breaking Bad: Saul in court, working magic like nobody’s business.

Chuck has gotta hate that Jimmy beat him when he had the advantage and all he had to do is stay quiet. Chuck destroyed himself, he was the only one who could and Jimmy exploited that.

that breakdown is literally straight out of phoenix wright lol this is art

The Suspense theme kicking in at 5:37 as Jimmy says "Yeah, I do" was PERFECT.

This is amazing and there's little I'd add to it. One small detail that I think would have been funny: when one of the judges said "We did promise the defence some leeway. You may proceed... But watch yourself.", I would have put the five "health points" on the upper right, with one of them blinking. Totally felt like one of those AA moments where the judge warns you that any pointless pressing will result in a penalty.
