"It was a really tough choice to make because you don’t want to confuse people," co-creator Peter Gould says of the unspooling of Jimmy McGill and Kim Wexler's plan during the first half of the final season. "But we have a guideline in general, which is that if the plan is going to work, then you don’t need to explain it. But if it’s going to go wrong, you do. I always think of Back to the Future. Doc Brown builds that elaborate model of Main Street and Hill Valley to explain what’s going to happen. If the plan worked perfectly, you wouldn’t need that long scene where he explains what’s going to happen. Sometimes it’s fun to lean forward and try to understand what the characters are up to. Of course, in this episode, you fully understand their scheme. And the brilliance of the scheme is that it depends on Howard catching on, which is pretty darn clever."
