"Breaking Bad" Easter Eggs -- Season 1 Quiz

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?

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".

Answer: Loyola's Cafe

Jimmy answered the call with an attempt at an English accent, pretending to be his secretary. He asked if they could meet at Loyola's Cafe because the offices were being painted and the fumes were "quite horrid". Later in the "Alpine Shepherd Boy" episode, we saw Mike having a meal at Loyola's, and in the "Bingo" episode, Jimmy met the Kettlemans once more at the diner. In "Breaking Bad", Mike was first seen in the restaurant with Jesse in the "Cornered" episode.

Incidentally, besides these two shows, Loyola's Family Restaurant, as it is actually known, has been seen in the television shows "In Plain Sight" and "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles".

Answer: Bashed metal objects

Jimmy's frustration from his meeting with Howard Hamlin was compounded when he saw his would-be clients, the Kettlemans, talking to Hamlin. As he left the building, he took out his aggression on a defenseless metal trash can, kicking it repeatedly. In "Breaking Bad", Walter White had a similar reaction when he found out his cancer was in remission (after embarking on his career as a drug dealer BECAUSE he had terminal cancer); he beat up a metal paper towel dispenser. Both items were shown in later episodes of their respective shows, still in their dented condition.

Answer: Key fob

Both Jimmy and Walt had generic red key fobs. Jimmy removed his keys and put the key fob in the mailbox because of Chuck's issues with electromagnetism; he did so throughout the first season. Walt created a pivoting automatic machine-gun that he controlled with the key fob. "Better Call Saul" co-creator Peter Gould said that, "When Vince [Gilligan] was selecting the key fob that Jimmy uses for his Esteem, we thought it would be fun to use one similar to the one Walter White used to trigger his machine-gun ambush at the end of "Breaking Bad".

Answer: Graffiti

After discovering that the Kettlemans had disappeared, Jimmy stopped by a pay phone and placed repeated calls to Nacho. The graffiti letters "JPi" could be seen on the phone booth and on the phone itself. Those same letters could also be seen on the wall of Jesse's house in the "Problem Dog" episode of "Breaking Bad" after Jesse threw an extended party that resulted in his walls being covered with graffiti. According to "Better Call Saul" co-creator Peter Gould, "[The graffiti] wasn't in the script... Sometimes folks in the art department or on the set add a little something".

Answer: Retirement home

The Casa Tranquila nursing home was the setting where Jimmy embarked on his elder law career, with his promotional Jell-O cups. It was the same place that Tuco's uncle, Hector Salamanca, lived and was first seen in the "Hermanos" episode of "Breaking Bad". The scenes were actually filmed at the Mountain View Community Center in Albuquerque.

Answer: Tarantula

"Tarantulas, they got", said the bartender in "Five-O", "that's a big minus in my book". In the "Dead Freight" episode of "Breaking Bad", Drew Sharp had captured a tarantula while he was out riding his motor bike in the desert, and the last shot in the episode was of the trapped spider in a jar next to Sharp's body. Both episodes also featured trains, with Mike arriving in Albuquerque on one and Drew Sharp being killed near one.

A tarantula also appeared in the opening credits to the "RICO" episode on "Better Call Saul", crawling around some of Saul Goodman's gaudy ties.

Answer: Georgia O'Keeffe

Jimmy broke down during the bingo game and ranted about Albuquerque, calling it a "God forsaken waste land" and a "soulless, radioactive, Georgia O'Keeffe hell-scape". In the "4 Days Out" episode of "Breaking Bad", Jane talked Jesse into agreeing to go to the Georgia O'Keeffe museum, and in the flashback sequence at the beginning of the "Abiquiú" episode, Jesse and Jane visited the museum. Jesse wasn't impressed; he didn't understand why O'Keeffe painted pictures of the same door over and over, but he did admit to liking the cow skull paintings. Jane explained that it was the door of O'Keeffe's house and that O'Keeffe loved her home so she painted the door repeatedly to make the feeling last.

Answer: Belize

After a string of Bs had brought him to the words "betrayal" and "brother", Jimmy was looking for other B words: "B as in Belize. Beautiful place or so I've heard. I would love to go there but let's face it. That's never gonna happen". In the "Buried" episode of "Breaking Bad", when Walter White was having trouble with his DEA brother-in-law, Hank, Saul Goodman suggested that Walt could send Hank to Belize: "You know, where Mike went to". Walt rejected the suggestion, "I'll send YOU to Belize".

Then in the "Rabid Dog" episode of "Breaking Bad", when Saul suggested that Jesse might need an "Old Yeller" treatment, Walt seethed, "You're full of colorful metaphors... Belize, Old Yeller... do not float that idea again".
