How each of their relationships with Gus is formed is still unknown. That might not be a huge question for you, but it is for a lot of people.
Mike also seemed fairly knowledgeable about the cartels in BB. That doesn't immediately seem like something he'd have picked up as a cop in Philly, so there could be some interesting storyline there.

Yeah i had it backwards, it always felt like she left him. Lanx covered it above.
I thought the finale was a little weak as well. But atleast Saul is born and now we can get to the good shit next season. Not saying this season was bad, but I am really looking forward to Saul being Saul and not Jimmy.

Finale was fine. The entire season was showing why being the person Chuck wants Jimmy to be was bad for Bob Odenkirk's character. We never saw why being Saul was good for the character.
Showing Marco and their escapades (along with how much Jimmy hated bingo) was the motivation that Jimmy needed to be his own man and be who he wants to be. The 'good lawyer' was just a front he did to try to earn his brother's respect and earn a living. But he is slipping jimmy, and now slipping jimmy has a law degree and enough money to become Saul.
I think there could've been a scene shown where Jimmy meets with the new lawyers and they treat him as Chuck's younger lawyer brother and expect him to be like Chuck but still live in his shadow. This would've made his exit of the parking lot and conversation with Mike make a bit more sense.

I think just like Marco, Jimmy had the week of his life. Thats why he didnt bother meeting with the lawyers imo.

From this link
"Can we assume Jimmy didn't go into the meeting with the Davis & Mayne people at the end? Because he whipped around out of the parking lot, as Mike said, very quickl .
I don't think it's safe to assume anything that you didn't see. That's all I can say."

Oh, yeah I agree. It made it seem to the audience that it didn't happen, but it could of. I remember being annoyed by the sequence of events because I was really excited to see the meeting. I wonder if they'll show what happened during the meeting later.
This show is obviously flashback heavy and the writing is good enough that they can explain the plot by revealing past events without it seeming like every flashback is a rerun, but honestly I get kind of tired of it and don't like flashbacks in general.

weird, it seemed like one take I guess I'll have to watch the end again.
I was hoping he actually would take the corporate job and the first 3-4 episodes (or more) of s2 would have been him at a big corporate lawyer job, and slowly slippin jimmy comes out, he takes shortcuts, bends the rules, and gets his ass fired.
Marco's ring is worn by Saul in all of BB. In season 2, we discover where he got his cufflinks!

Heh, I think that is the grifter culture. More about the swindle than the actual dollar amount.
I get the sense that they did shoot or intended to shoot the sit down scene with the lawyers, but for whatever reason, it was pulled. The last 2 minutes of the episode were kind of clunky. He works himself up into a frustrated rage saying "never again!" when they could have showed what lit his fuse.
What a phenomenal first season though. Exceed my expectations.
