Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Much of the first episode of the season focused on Chuck's funeral. Who blamed himself for Chuck's death and suffered mentally during season four?

Answer: Howard Hamlin

Jimmy initially appeared perplexed by Chuck's death. He told Kim that Chuck had been fine the last time he saw him, and he seemed almost stunned, devoid of emotion during the first episode, that is until Howard showed up after the funeral and confessed to Jimmy and Kim that he believed he (Howard) was to blame for Chuck's death. Jimmy immediately perked up, telling Howard that it was his cross to bear.

When Jimmy later ran into Howard in a restroom at the courthouse, Howard looked disheveled and told Jimmy that he was suffering from insomnia. Jimmy offered him the name of the therapist that Kim wanted him to see, but Howard told Jimmy that he was already seeing a therapist.

When Jimmy stopped by HHM to pick up his inheritance check, he once again found Howard looking less than his usual spiffy self and discovered that HHM was downsizing; the firm was falling apart while Howard was struggling with his personal demons. Jimmy gave Howard a tough-love pep talk, which Howard rebuffed, but by the end of the season, Howard appeared to be his old self.
2. Hector Salamanca's collapse at the end of season three resulted in a debilitating stroke that initially left him comatose. Who paid for a Johns Hopkins specialist to treat Hector to make sure that he recovered - at least a little?

Answer: Gus

Although Hector later emerged from the coma, he was still unresponsive and it was uncertain if he would ever regain consciousness or be aware of his surroundings. This did not suit Gus Fring, whom we discovered wanted Hector to be fully cognizant when Gus unleashed his plans for revenge against him: "I decide what he deserves. No one else".

When she arrived, the doctor from Johns Hopkins spoke to The Cousins who were standing guard over Hector in his hospital room, and she recommended that even though Hector was unconscious that they speak to him in the hopes that he would recognize their voices.

The Cousins had Arturo and Nacho talk to Hector, giving him awkward words of encouragement: "You look good, Don Hector, real good". Hector did eventually wake up and although his ability to communicate was impaired, Gus realized that he was fully aware of what was going on around him after Gus watched him ogle a hospital worker.

At that point, Gus thanked the Johns Hopkins doctor for her efforts and despite her protestations that Hector might be able to walk and talk again with continued treatment, Gus released her from her duty, telling her that "we should temper our expectations".
3. Jimmy got a job to sustain him while his law license was suspended in season four. What was he selling that put him in touch with his future criminal clientele?

Answer: Cell phones

Jimmy was offered the perfect job for him as a copier salesman. He knew the equipment inside and out from his time working in the HHM mailroom and was an enthusiastic salesman, selling himself to the manager of the company. But when he received the job offer, he bitterly declined it, calling out the manager for trusting him on face value without even a background check.

He initially turned down the cell phone salesman job also, but when Kim recommended he see a therapist, he quickly accepted the position, using it as an excuse to avoid an appointment. Business was slow in the store so Jimmy decided to drum up his own business by bringing the phones directly to the kind of people who needed confidential communications.

His first attempt at selling phones to nocturnal customers at a hot dog stand was a success until he was mugged by a group of teens.

But he dealt with that problem and then partnered up with Huell Babineaux to sell the phones on a street corner.
4. With Hector incapacitated, it looked like Nacho might be able to escape from his drug-dealer life, but unfortunately for him, Gus realized that he facilitated Hector's stroke so now Nacho would be working for Gus. What happened to Nacho this season as a result of his new relationship with the Fring crew?

Answer: He was shot.

Nacho and Arturo were running the Albuquerque Salamanca operation in the absence of Hector, but Gus knew that Nacho had doctored Hector's medicine, and he decided to use that information to his advantage. He and his crew ambushed Nacho and Arturo one night, and Gus suffocated Arturo in front of Nacho.

He then told Nacho that "YOU ARE MINE". The crew had to get rid of Arturo's body without arousing suspicion in the Salamanca family, so they staged an ambush of Arturo's car on a remote stretch of road, placing the body in the driver's seat and shooting up the car.

They had Nacho sit in the passenger seat and take a shot to the shoulder. The plan was for him to stumble out of the car and call the Salamancas for help, but Gus's man, Victor, shot Nacho again, this time in the abdomen, to make it look convincing.

He then told Nacho to make the call before he passed out. The Cousins arrived later, looked around the scene and apparently didn't think it was suspicious. They found Nacho looking close to death, so they took him to the Vet to get the bullet removed, with one of the Cousins having to give him a blood transfusion.
5. Kim was still working with Mesa Verde bank, but she appeared to have lost interest in her work. What became her new passion in season four?

Answer: Public defender work

Kim seemed to be doing well. She had a new paralegal, Viola ("Gilmore Girls" Lane Kim (Keiko Agena)) to assist her with her workload, but after seeing models of Mesa Verde CEO Kevin Wachtell's expansion plans, she handed her work over to Viola and went to the courthouse to observe minor criminal case proceedings.

After determining that Kim didn't have a case on the docket, Judge Munsinger called her into his office and correctly determined her motive: "Don't think that you are the first to try to rediscover their love of the law by trolling my court".

He threatened to put her to work as a public defender if he saw her in his courtroom again, but that was exactly her desire. Unfortunately the public defender work caused her to lose focus on Mesa Verde, leading to a tense confrontation with Mesa Verde counsel Paige Novick, so Kim decided to get some extra personnel on the Mesa Verde account to free up her time.

She brought the Mesa Verde account to Rich Schweikert's firm and was given a partnership in exchange for the client. So she was able to continue her public defender work while collecting memorial plaques for each of the Mesa Verde branch openings for assisting with their legal needs.

But while Kim's professional life was flourishing, her position at Schweikert & Cokely was heartbreaking for Jimmy - he still had hopes of resurrecting the law offices of Wexler and McGill once he had his license back.
6. Mike quit his job as a courthouse parking lot attendant at the beginning of season four and was living off cash being laundered through Madrigal, but he was soon given a task by Gus Fring. Gus wanted him to interview and supervise a team of workers who were building what?

Answer: An underground facility

Last season, Mike had approached Gus to find a way to launder the money he'd stolen from Hector Salamanca, and Gus had arranged for Lydia Rodarte-Quayle to give Mike a position on paper at Madrigal for that purpose. Mike being Mike - he wasn't satisfied to merely receive the checks, so he showed up at Madrigal facilities to conduct security investigations, to Lydia's irritation and Gus's amusement.

But once Gus realized that Mike had known about Nacho's plans to do away with Hector, he angrily confronted Mike for "moving against my interests". Mike pointed out that he'd agreed to not kill Hector, but he hadn't agreed to be Hector's bodyguard.

But Mike realized that Gus hadn't just called him to vent about Hector so he told Gus: "Why don't you stop running a game on me and just tell me about the job".

It turned out that thanks to Gus's manueverings, he received permission from Juan Bolsa to find a local supplier for his product, and Gus was way ahead of him. He already had a chemist, Gale Boetticher analyzing local supplier samples, and he was apparently willing to set up his own manufacturing site to fully control the trade.

He had Mike bring in interviewees for the construction job, flying them into Denver and then driving them blindfolded to a laundry facility in Albuquerque. A German engineer, Werner Ziegler, impressed Gus with his attention-to-detail and his realistic assessment of the job, so his team was hired for the job, and Mike was put in charge of keeping a 24-hour watch on the men while they constructed an underground facility over nearly a year.
7. Jimmy and Kim had been growing apart during season four, as Kim took a more traditional role with her career, and Jimmy went in a shadier direction, but they rekindled their relationship when they collaborated on what?

Answer: A scheme to get a reduced sentence for Huell

The decline in Jimmy and Kim's relationship was beautifully portrayed in the opening montage sequence of the "Something Stupid" episode as the increasing separation between the two over nearly a year was displayed on a split screen. But they were brought together when Huell Babineaux was arrested for assaulting an undercover police officer, and Jimmy approached her to help Huell avoid a prison sentence. Kim was aghast to find out that Jimmy had been selling burner phones and initially seemed reluctant to help Jimmy, but once she realized that Huell was being offered a much steeper sentence than similar defendants, she became interested in the case.

But when she told Jimmy that the prosecutor wasn't backing down and that Huell was "gonna have to put on his big boy pants and go to jail.

At least for a little while", she realized that Jimmy wasn't going to accept that answer, and she came up with a plan to prevent Jimmy from taking matters into his own hands. She had Jimmy go to Huell's Louisiana home town and mail bags of letters of support to the judge, apparently from the townfolk but actually written by Jimmy and co-conspirators he employed on the bus trip to Louisiana. Kim and Jimmy then set up a website for a church to which Huell allegedly belonged, featuring pictures of a smiling Huell participating in various church activities, and they added a fund-raising page to help pay for Huell's defense.

When the sacks of mail arrived at Judge Munsinger's office, he asked the prosecutor if she was going after Santa Claus and told her to settle the case. The prosecutor called some of the phone numbers included on the letters and reached Pastor Hansford who was actually Jimmy disguising his voice. She eventually gave up, and Huell received four months probation. Kim had such a rush from the scam that she wanted to pull another one - this time getting a Lubbock clerk to switch out Mesa Verde drawings without changing deadlines.
8. Nacho was now running the Salamanca operation from the taco restaurant, overseeing the weekly cash collection with Domingo counting the cash. Toward the end of the season, Nacho arrived at work one day to find Domingo and the cook sitting nervously in the restaurant. Who was in the kitchen cooking a family recipe?

Answer: Lalo

Lalo introduced himself as Eduardo Salamanca but told Nacho he went by Lalo. Lalo was another nephew of Hector Salamanca and told Nacho he was there to look after Salamanca interests. Despite his initial charming demeanor, he turned out to be as ruthless as the other Salamancas.

He had Nacho drive him to see Hector, who was now living in a nursing home. Lalo reminisced with Hector about a time when they burned down a hotel and killed the proprietor for being disrespectful, and Lalo gave Hector the bell from the hotel which he'd kept as a souvenir.

He then had Nacho drive him to Los Pollos Hermanos where he thanked Gus for his actions in saving Hector's life and tested Gus out to see if he'd make a move against Don Eladio. Next he had Nacho take him to Gus's warehouse operations where it turned out that the German construction team was living. Once Lalo realized that something else was going on at the warehouse other than chicken operations, Lalo ditched Nacho and started following Mike, killing a money transfer service clerk along the way.
9. In the season finale "Winner", Mike performed his first kill for Gus Fring. Who was the unfortunate victim?

Answer: Werner Ziegler

Mike had killed before - he took out the cops who killed his son before he left Philadelphia and moved to Albuquerque. But with the exception of Hector Salamanca, he tried to avoid killing people. After Werner broke out of the engineers' compound to meet his wife for a weekend getaway, Mike talked Gus into letting him bring Werner back instead of killing him, telling Gus that if Werner didn't return, Gus would be left with a giant hole in the ground. Gus agreed initially, but once Gus found out that Lalo knew about Werner, Gus decided that he had to be eliminated. Mike tried to talk him out of it but quickly realized that Gus had made up his mind. Mike had developed somewhat of a friendship with Werner, so he told Gus that he would do it, perhaps thinking he'd be easier on Werner than Gus's other goons. Werner was a bit clueless as to the amount of trouble he was in; he was trying to get Mike to let him go see his wife, not realizing that he should have been begging for his life at that point.

When Mike pointed out that "nothing you can say or do will make anyone trust you again", Werner finally realized his predicament. Mike let him call his wife to convince her to go back to Germany so that she wouldn't be killed, and he told Werner that his men would also be sent home. Then as Werner slowly walked off into the desert, Mike shot him from behind.
10. After finishing his probation period, Jimmy expected to get his law license back, but the reinstatement committee initially rejected him as being insincere. What did he do in the season finale to convince them to reinstate his license?

Answer: Pretended to care about Chuck

Jimmy was well-prepared for the reinstatement interview and breezed through most it with the usual Jimmy McGill charm. But he stumbled a bit when asked what the law meant to him and when asked whether he had "any particular influence" on him, he gave credit to his American Samoa correspondence school: "Go Land Crabs!" He was baffled when he found out that the committee had rejected him as being insincere, but Kim grasped it immediately: "You want to know why the committee called you insincere? Because you didn't mention Chuck...

They read the transcript. They know what happened. Jimmy, they were waiting for you to say something about it". Jimmy didn't see what Chuck had to do with him: "I'm supposed to make a big hairy deal about my dead brother at my reinstatement hearing? How is that sincere?" But he came to see her point, and with her help, he embarked on a series of activities to convince the committee that he cared about Chuck. On the anniversary of Chuck's death, he spent the day at Chuck's grave site so that he'd be seen by others who stopped by. Next he paid for and attended a dedication ceremony for the Charles L. McGill Reading Room at a local university, and finally, he participated in the selection committee for the Charles L. McGill Memorial Scholarship. For an extra touch, Jimmy planned on reading Chuck's letter, the one that Chuck had left in his will, at the second reinstatement interview.

But when he started reading the letter, he changed his mind: "This letter's between me and him. And it should stay that way". He then proceeded to give a heart-wrenching speech about the complicated relationship that the brothers had which left more than one person wiping tears away, including Kim. But afterward, when she was celebrating with Jimmy in the hall, Kim was shocked to find out that the whole thing was a ruse. She had been waiting for Jimmy to have a reaction to Chuck's death, and she thought this was truly a breakthrough, but it was merely an act for Jimmy: "Did you see those suckers? That one [guy] was crying, he had actual tears!" The final shock came for Kim when Jimmy asked the clerk for a DBA (Doing Business As) form, "because I'm not going to be practicing under the name McGill". Enter Saul Goodman!
