• Waitress : Hey! You are not Kevin Costner!

  Saul Goodman : I was last night.

• [last lines] 

  Jimmy McGill : Help me out here. Did I dream it, or did I have $1,600,000 on my desk in cash? When I close my eyes, I can still see it. It's burned into my retinas like I was staring into the sun. No one on God's green earth knew we had it. We could have split it 50/50. We could have gone home with $800,000 each, tax-free.

  Mike Ehrmantraut : Your point being?

  Jimmy McGill : Why didn't we? What stopped us?

  Mike Ehrmantraut : I remember you saying something about doing the right thing.

  Jimmy McGill : I don't even know what that means.

  Mike Ehrmantraut : You want to know why I didn't take that money? Is that what you're asking?

  Jimmy McGill : Yeah, that's what I'm asking.

  Mike Ehrmantraut : Me, personally I was hired to do a job. I did it. That's as far as it goes.

  Jimmy McGill : Yeah. Well, I know what stopped me. And you know what? It's never stopping me again.

• Jimmy McGill : Can I interest you ladies in some mimosas? At least stick around long enough to get dressed.

  Lucianne : Oh, oh. Screw you.

  Jimmy McGill : If you build it, I will come.

• Saul Goodman : Uh, quick question, who here knows what a Chicago sunroof is? Anybody? You, sir? No? Okay. True story, uh, back home, uh, there was this guy named Chet. Now, Chet was a real asshole. He might have owed me some money. He might have slept with my wife before she became my ex-wife. The details don't matter. Suffice it to say, I was wronged. All right, so one summer evening, I was out having a few drinks. One or two, maybe three. You get the picture? And, uh, who do I see? Chet. He drove up, and he double-parked outside a Dairy Queen and went in to get some soft serve. Now, Chet drove - and this will give you an idea of exactly what kind of a douchebag this guy was - drove a white pearlescent BMW 7 Series with white leather interior. So, I saw that thing, and I had-I'd had a few, like I said. And, uh, I climbed up top, and I may have defecated, uh, through the sunroof. Not my finest hour, I'll grant you that. But that's what a Chicago sunroof is. Now you know. It's a real thing. I didn't make it up. I'm not the first person to do it. There's a name for it. Guy wanted some soft serve, I gave him some soft serve. I did not know that his children were in the backseat. There was a level of tint on the windows that I'll maintain to this day was not legal in an Illinois-licensed vehicle. But somehow, that's on me, I guess. Who leaves two Cub Scouts in a double-parked car with the engine running? Come on! Now, Chet was connected, see? Like, uh, Cicero connected. So, usually, I'd be looking at malicious mischief, public intoxication, disorderly conduct, maybe. But he's got the D.A. saying indecent exposure, calling me a sex offender. What? One little Chicago sunroof, and suddenly I'm Charles Manson? And that's where it all went off the rails. I've been paying for it ever since. That's why I'm here! I don't... You know what?

  Saul Goodman : Any of this stuff you want, come get it. Kitty-cat notebooks for everybody.
