From Quiz "Breaking Bad" Easter Eggs -- Season 1

Answer: On Jimmy's paycheck from the court

Next to Walter White's address, Gale Boetticher's was probably the best known on "Breaking Bad". He lived at 6353 Juan Tabo, and Walt emphasized knowing the address when he sent Jesse Pinkman to take care of Boetticher. In the "Uno" episode, Jimmy received a payment of $700 for defending three hooligans, but he was expecting $2100 - $700 per defendant. When he complained to the cashier, he pinned the check against her window, and his address could be plainly seen: 160 Juan Tabo NE. Incidentally, while Jimmy was arguing with a court clerk, the camera cut away from him to a shot of the lobby, and dead center of the picture was a coat rack with what appeared to be Heisenberg's hat and jacket on it. Another Easter egg or just a coincidence?

From Quiz "Better Call Saul": 1.10 "Marco"

Answer: Chuck's shopping list

When Howard asked Jimmy how he found out that Chuck was behind the refusal to let Jimmy work as a lawyer at HHM, Jimmy admitted that he "figured it out on his own. About time, right?" Howard told him that "he never wanted it to go this way", and he started to tell Jimmy what he would have done, but Jimmy cut him off, so we didn't find out whether Howard would have hired him as a lawyer. When Jimmy gave Howard the shopping list, he explained that Chuck needed deliveries every day, with the ice being the most difficult. Jimmy said he would "sneak into a motel and fill a garbage bag" with ice but suggested that Howard could just buy it. Howard seemed genuinely shocked that Jimmy had been doing these chores daily for Chuck for more than a year.

From Quiz "Better Call Saul": Who Said What in Season One?

Answer: Nacho

Jimmy had told Tuco and Nacho about the $1.6 million that Craig Kettleman had embezzled from the county when he and the skateboarders were being threatened in the desert. Nacho later showed up at Jimmy's sad little office in the back of the salon to propose a finder's fee for Jimmy if Jimmy could tell him where Kettleman was keeping the money. Nacho had decided that he wanted to steal the money; he just needed to know where it was.

Answer: Two skateboarders

While distracted while driving, Jimmy hit a skateboarder who smashed into his windshield. The victim's brother had filmed the accident, and when the two tried to shake down Jimmy for cash in lieu of calling the police, Jimmy called their bluff.

From Quiz "Better Call Saul": 1.9 "Pimento"

Answer: A dog

In the "RICO" episode, we saw Mike show up at the veterinarian office with a dog that he said he got from the shelter. The dog was an excuse to visit the vet, who ran a side business handling shady transactions. Mike then brought the dog to his daughter-in-law's house as a gift for Kaylee, who seemed thrilled with the pup, but her mom wasn't as enthused. When Mike pointed out that burglars avoid homes with dogs, Stacey didn't quite buy that the little dog would scare anyone away, but she gave in and let Kaylee keep the dog. While Mike was at their house, he received a call from the vet with his first assignment.

From Quiz "Better Call Saul" Season 1 Episode 3

Answer: Chicago

A grungy, long-haired Jimmy is happy to see his older brother Chuck, a prominent New Mexico attorney. The Cook County jail is not the best setting for a family reunion, as Chuck has not heard from Jimmy in several years.

From Quiz "Better Call Saul": 1.8 "RICO"

Answer: He had passed the bar exam.

Jimmy had once worked for Hamlin, Hamlin & McGill, no doubt thanks to his brother, but unbeknownst to Chuck, Jimmy had aspired to move up from the mail room. He had received his law degree through distance learning from the University of American Samoa ("Go Land Crabs!"), and on his third attempt, he'd passed the bar exam, allowing him to practice law in New Mexico. But his desire to move up in the firm was squashed by Howard Hamlin, which could be the reason that Jimmy had such a dislike for him later on.

From Quiz "Better Call Saul": 1.7 "Bingo"

Answer: They found it in the parking lot.

The episode began with Jimmy and Mike sitting on a bench beneath a rogue's gallery of wanted pictures in the courthouse. Detectives Abbasi and Sanders appeared; Abbasi was irate and threatened to take both of them into custody. Jimmy told the detective that they just now had found the notepad in the parking lot as they were coming to meet with the detectives. When Abbasi told Mike "wait 'til I get you back to Philadelphia", Jimmy intervened, "I'm confused. The State of Pennsylvania can extradite people for returning lost property?" After Abbasi left, Mike told Jimmy thanks and that he could leave, and then Mike and Detective Sanders sat and chatted. They were apparently old friends. Sanders told him that if Mike's daughter-in-law had nothing to tell them that it would be the end of it, so he advised Mike to talk to her, but Mike said he was leaving it up to her. Sanders clearly believed that Mike was guilty ("[Abbasi] needed to learn that some rocks you don't turn over"), but he wasn't going to do anything about it.

From Quiz "Better Call Saul": 1.6 "Five-O"

From Quiz Introducing "Better Call Saul"

Answer: A Cinnabon in Omaha

"Better Call Saul" started with a black and white scene from the future: As Saul had told Walter White at the end of "Breaking Bad", he was living out his best case scenario, working as the manager at a Cinnabon in Omaha. Wearing a name tag that said "Gene", he was barely recognizable, balding with a droopy mustache. He was later shown at home, watching a VHS tape of his glory days - his old Albuquerque "Better Call Saul" commercials, while drinking a Scotch and Drambuie.

From Quiz "Breaking Bad" Easter Eggs -- Season 1

Answer: Cadillac DeVille

The writers got us with this one. If you watched "Breaking Bad", you weren't surprised to see Jimmy heading toward the shiny white Cadillac, but he walked past it and put his briefcase on a 1998 Suzuki Esteem that had seen better days. The tacky yellow car with a red rear door was purposely selected for the character; creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould apparently even considered having the word "Esteem" as a decal on the car. The white Cadillac surfaced again, although only in words, in the "Marco" episode when Marco told Jimmy that he must be the "king of the desert, driving around town in a white Cadillac".

From Quiz "Better Call Saul": 1.10 "Marco"

Answer: B

Jimmy apparently had decided to resume his elder law career, and the Bingo game started out well enough: "O-64 as in Oh to be 64 again" and "N-32, N as in Nancy Reagan", but then he had a string of "B"s, and as he struggled to come up with phrases, the words "betrayal" and "brother" came out: "I'm sure a lot of you have brothers, not like mine though". Then when the fifth B came up, he said, "B, as in this B thing is really starting to tick me off". He then started his rant about Albuquerque, calling it a "God-forsaken waste land" and "a soulless, radioactive Georgia O'Keeffe hell-scape".

From Quiz "Better Call Saul": Who Said What in Season One?

Answer: Kim

Jimmy had called the Kettlemans to warn them that they might be in danger since he knew that Nacho wanted to go after their money. He at first tried to disguise his voice using a paper towel tube, but they couldn't understand him, so he ended up quickly warning them in his own voice. After the Kettlemans disappeared, he confessed to Kim, telling her what he had done, and she immediately asked him the above question, to which he answered yes.
