Saul Goodman
Identity: Better Call Saul!
Background: Saul is a self-centered and unscrupulous Albuquerque-based lawyer who embraces his tactics as a former scam artist and becomes involved in the city's criminal underworld. In Breaking Bad, he acts as the consigliere for the methamphetamine cooks Walter White and Jesse Pinkman and plays a crucial role in the development of their drug empire. Better Call Saul's main prequel storyline depicts Saul's origins as the earnest lawyer Jimmy McGill and his moral deterioration in the six years before the events of Breaking Bad; it also features a sequel storyline, where Saul is living under the assumed name Gene Takavic, that explores the consequences of his actions in Breaking Bad.
