Better Call Saul - Easter Eggs & Hidden Details

In 'Breaking Bad,' Saul tells Walter White a story about how he once convinced a woman he was Kevin Costner. In Season 1 of 'Better Call Saul,' we see this event happen when a woman Jimmy conned wakes up next to him and berates him for the lie.

In his final scene in 'Breaking Bad,' Saul tells Walt that if he's lucky, in a month from now, best-case scenario, he'll be a manager of a Cinnabon in Omaha. The very first scene of 'Better Call Saul' reveals this is exactly what happened, showing him working at the Cinnabon under the name Gene Takavic.

In 'Breaking Bad,' we learn in a flashback that Gus Fring's partner, Max Arciniega, was murdered by Hector Salamanca. In 'Better Call Saul,' we see a fountain in a village Gus funds with a plaque that reads 'Dedicado a Max,' showing the depth of his long-held grief and quest for revenge.

In his first appearance in 'Breaking Bad' (Season 2, Episode 8), Saul, held at gunpoint by Walt and Jesse, frantically asks, \"Did Lalo send you? No Lalo?\" 'Better Call Saul' builds the entire character of Lalo Salamanca from this throwaway line, making him a formidable and terrifying antagonist whose story is resolved when he is buried under Gus Fring's future superlab.

In a scene where Jimmy uses a payphone, the graffiti tag 'JP' can be seen. This is a subtle nod to Jesse Pinkman, who was known for his delinquency and whose own graffiti was seen in his house in 'Breaking Bad.'
