So I'm apparently not the only one.

So I'm apparently not the only one.

Rhea Seahorn, the actress that plays Kim Wexler on Better Caul Saul, has a very similar outcome for the series that I do.

I always thought my outcome was quite ridiculous.  Her's is pretty similar, (basically the same, at a high level) although slightly more obviously ridiculous.

My basic premise was that Kim and Saul/Jimmy should wind up together.  No matter how ridiculous that is.  Jimmy and Kim should end up married.  My theory was the Kim turns over to the "dark side", and remains with Jimmy throughout the entire Breaking Bad saga, through thick and thin.  She would be an unseen character that is there along side Jimmy/Saul.

Saul has these scenes where he's "working at a Cinnibon in Nebraska", exactly as he described it in an episdode of Breaking Bad.  He comes home to his condo, and watches his old "Saul Goodman" commercials, and this is the first time you see a gleam in his eye.

My premise, at the endpoint, is that Kim peaks out from around the corner and says something to the effect of "hey honey, you coming to bed?" (Or coming in from outside from work, and having a similarly marital conversation).  This would be the last scene of the show, proving that she turned shadey and was there all along.

Rhea's outcome is a bit more ridiculous, but basically the same: they end up together albeit in a lessor sense.  I take her statement to be fan service, honestly, so apparently I'm not the only one.
