In Omaha in 2010, Jimmy, as Gene Takavic, ingratiates himself with Marion, the elderly mother of Jeff, the cab driver who recognized him as Saul Goodman. In exchange for his silence, Gene offers to let Jeff in on "the game". He trains Jeff and his partner Buddy for roles in the robbery of a department store at the mall where Gene works. He distracts the mall's security guards so Jeff can steal expensive merchandise without being observed. During the heist, Jeff slips and knocks himself unconscious; Gene gains him extra time by feigning an emotional breakdown to hold the guard's attention. They get away with thousands of dollars in stolen goods, but Gene warns Jeff and Buddy to avoid him in the future, threatening to turn them in if they reveal his identity to authorities. Energized by the robbery's success, Gene finds a Goodman-style shirt in the department store, but wistfully leaves without purchasing it.
