Jean Villepique remembers that Bob Odenkirk “did not really talk to me” in the lead-up to their Season 3 scene, which finds Jimmy sobs to an insurance agent in a calculated move to get Chuck in trouble — but she totally understood why.

“He had to cry in the scene, and it’s a long scene. So I was just like, ‘I am going to not mess up my words. I’m just going to give him what he needs from this side.'”



After the cameras had captured Odenkirk’s performance and were turned around to shoot Villepique’s reactions, she remembers, the atmosphere lightened a bit.

Between takes, “He was so warm,” she says, adding that based on his reputation in the comedy community, she wasn’t surprised. “Enough people really love him that I didn’t have fears of him.”
