Be honest: is Mike a well-written character?

>>85392641
By Breaking Bad standards, definitely

>>85392641
Even more so in Better Call Saul

>>85392756
it depends on the writer
the episode in season 1 where we learn his backstory was FANTASTIC
but the meetings with Fring in season 3 were awful
really awkward dialogue

Is it bad that I teared up at the scene where he's explaining to Stacey what happened to his son?

>No. No. I told him... You know what a cop fears most? More than getting shot, more than anything? Prison - Getting locked up with everybody you put away. You threaten a cop with that, you make him dangerous, and that's what I told him. I talked sense. No one was getting hurt. But if you go to the I.A., if you even look like you're going... He had a wife, a kid, responsibilities. Take the money. Do something good with it. Well... I tried. I tried. But he wouldn't listen. My boy was stubborn. My boy was strong. And he was gonna get himself killed. So I told him... I told him I did it, too, That I was like Hoffman, getting by, and that's what you heard that night - me talking him down, him kicking and screaming until the fight went out of him. He put me up on a pedestal... And I had to show him that I was down in the gutter with the rest of them. Broke my boy. I broke my boy. He went to Hoffman, he took the money, but he hesitated. Even looking like you're doing the right thing to those two meant that he wasn't solid, that he couldn't be trusted. I got Matty to take the money. And they killed him two days later. He was the strongest person that I ever knew. He'd have never done it, not even to save himself. I was the only one - I was the only one that could get him to debase himself like that. And it was for nothing. I made him lesser. I made him like me. And the bastards killed him anyway.

Banks did a really phenomenal job with that scene. Too bad barely anyone has seen it.

Why so many Mike threads today?

I don't remember this, what episode was it from?

I sure as hell hope you're not dissing the MikeNuke, or Iron Mike will go medieval on your ass.

Is this a cut scene or something? Of course I remember his son coming up but I don't remember all that from that speech.
