Whip em out for space blanket

Again, not a particularly nerve-shredding episode, but I love how it's showing Jimmy sinking back into his old methods of conning people, and building up to the potential consequences of that.

And the opening scene that shows what his usual game was back then is a brilliant addition to this episode considering that, plus you not knowing whether or not Nacho is still angry at Jimmy or not because of his schemes is some damn good suspense for the future of the show.

The plan Jimmy comes up with is pretty genius and fun to watch play out too, so all I really wanted to complain about is the same issues as the last episode: maybe a little too slow and not directed as well as Episode 2, but also the fact that something about the Kettleman's acting in the first scene after the intro felt a little...off somehow.

Maybe I'm imagining things, but both of them seemed a little too deadpan. But all in all, it's another great episode and I like where it's going.
