SUNK COSTS- 2 Other Easter Eggs & a Godfather Reference

“Yea Big”

When Mike/Mr. Clark visits the clinic he uses this term with hand gestures to approximate the package size he needs. In BB S2E8 Saul also uses the same term when talking with Walter as Mr. Mayhew: “Option B: Brandon goes up to the penitentiary…….” Also Note that (1) Both scenes involve fake identities: Mike as “Mr. Clark” and Walter pretending to be Badger’s uncle, "Mr. Mayhew” Another fake identity: This is the BB scene where “Saul” reveals “My real name is McGill....” and (2) Mike’s ruse (Montezuma’s "Revenge") to visit the clinic is gastrointestinal-related and Saul’s prediction for Badger’s fate in prison is also gastrointestinal-related!

He Has A Good Heart

Chuck’s pre-trial interview with Kyra Hay also recycles the “He has a good heart, but…” line which was used by Chuck when talking with Kim about Jimmy in REBECCA S2E5, which was likely inspired by a line from Michael Corleone to Tom Hagan about Fredo in The Godfather 2, given VG’s and PG’s well-known admiration of that movie. Also Note that in all 3 of these scenes (1) the discussion involves brothers and betrayal (2) this dialogue is spoken to attorneys (Kim, Kyra Hay and Tom Hagan, who is the Corleone family’s consigliere/attorney) and (3) Symbolism of Half Lit/Half Shadow Face for both Chuck and Michael – What are they really “hiding” when they say this line?
