In this episode:

A review of the main characters, and a thought experiment- if each character in Better Call Saul were a super hero, what would their special power be. In other words, what theme do they bring to the show.

Finally, we will discuss the "Svengali Effect" to see if Charles McGill's accusations about his little brother are true.

Is Jimmy a Svengali? A sociopathic mesmerizing mastermind? Or is Charles seeing the worst in his little brother, as he always does.

We are going to hold Jimmy McGill up to the criteria of what it means to be manipulative sociopath to understand the psychology behind this beloved character.
