Drug cartels ain't got nothing on Carol Burnett



There is something so intrinsically right with the way that Saul Goodman slithers through life in both his own show and Breaking Bad, and somehow gets away with it because the people he mainly deals with are just as weak as he is, but when he comes up against the pure goodness of Carol Burnett, she is the one person he can't buy off or threaten, and ultimately brings him down.

It's not the ruthless drug cartels or the brutal US law enforcement officers that bring Saul's lawless rampage to an end, all it takes is one little old lady who is not putting up with his nonsense for one darn second.

In a world where those with power often seem to skate through life without ever facing any real consequences, it's  handy reminder that all it should take is one good person - and you couldn't get much gooder than the wonderful Ms Burnett - to say no, and all the schemes and plans come crashing down.
