Saul Goodman's Worst Moment In Better Call Saul Season 1

In "Marco," Jimmy McGill returns to Cicero and is reunited with Marco at the local bar where they used to spend a significant amount of time scamming patrons. Jimmy reverts to that old behavior when he and Marco meet again: they quickly pull off a scam to make $110 off a 50 cent coin on an unsuspecting bar patron, leading to a full week of cons — just like the good ol' days.

One such con included in the episode's brilliant montage sequence calls back to the "Breaking Bad" Season 3 episode "Abiquiu," in which Saul tells Walter White that he once successfully convinced a woman that he was the actor and director Kevin Costner. "Better Call Saul" takes a throwaway joke written years prior and fleshes it out into something far grosser. Smushed into a packed sequence featuring different hilarious scam premises, Jimmy is heard saying, "You know, the guy from 'Dances with Wolves'?" to two laughing women. When the montage sequence ends, Jimmy awakens in bed with one of these women sitting over him, realizing that he is not Kevin Costner after all. When confronted with this reality, Jimmy merely states that he was Kevin Costner last night, prompting the woman to retrieve her friend from Marco's room and leave quickly, insulting Jimmy for his deceitful seduction tactics along the way. 

While none of Jimmy's scams are above board, this feels especially distasteful and morally repugnant, and it brings into question just how far Jimmy McGill might go to get something that he wants.
