All those Germans are dead, it just a matter of how it's played out. I can see Mike catching the old dude and just hauling him back to the compound. Gus will want him dead of course, but it depends how far along they are in construction. If it's just down to concrete pours, then he could probably find some Mexicans to do that.

Well, maybe not the only reason. Everybody knows, if you want some shit engineered to perfection, get German or Japanese engineers.

Mike isn't good or bad; he's a man with a code. His code isn't quite as simple as a "No women, no children" but he has one. I think it's fair to say that killing a bunch of German engineers who aren't "in the game" just to keep them quiet doesn't really feel consistent with what we have learned about Mike and his code to this point. Not saying it's impossible, just that it doesn't feel likely.

Of course that was the plan, but there would be no point in the whole subplot if everything went off without a hitch and they went there separate ways.

I enjoy the show... but the pace is really getting to me. A full 10 episode season and pretty much nothing happens. Still great television though.

I've never been a huge Bob Odenkirk fan, I like him but when people say he's the greatest actor in current TV i kinda roll my eyes a little bit. But man, he really killed it in the finale giving that speech. Not because the speech was moving or whatever, any asshole could do that, but because you knew Jimmy didn't believe any of what he was saying but he still sounded so passionate and then he reveals the double layer at the end. Great shit.
but yeah the season really hasn't had a whole lot happen, they probably could have covered all the salient plot points in 4-5 episodes and done more with Gus, Hector, the twins, the cartel, Don Eladio, etc but its not so slow as to be painful to watch. I don't think I'd ever rewatch Better Call Saul though, except for maybe 3-4 key episodes so far.
did anyone think that chick he told "they will never believe in you" was gonna go grab a gun and come back and shoot out HHM? "I thought you told me to break the rules!" lol

I honestly think Skylar gets a bit too much shit. I think her character is pretty realistic for the events that occurred in her life during BB. Is she necessarily a character I enjoyed at all times? No. But someone like Kim is easier to watch because she's closer to Jimmy's bad side than Skylar was to Walt's (until the end, anyway). That side of life is what the audience is interested in, not how a normal suburban housewife reacts to her husband being a drug dealer. So, I think it's a much higher bar of difficulty to pull off.
