Kim Wexler's Fatal Flaw

Kim Wexler is one of Better Call Saul’s best and most surprising characters. Throughout the series, she’s shocked us by becoming Giselle, marrying Jimmy, and vowing to destroy Howard Hamlin. The one consistency is her ability to surprise us.

In this video, we deep dive into her history and transformation to understand her character and some of her most surprising decisions. I’ve timestamped each part of the video below but I highly recommend watching it from beginning to end as each part builds on the previous ones.

After watching, make sure to let me know your thoughts in the comments! Do you agree with my analysis? What do you think I missed? And what are your predictions for where Kim heads next?
