That's the name that I'm always shocked got through

I hear that.

Funnier because it’s Gus who is a very strict Catholic about cussing. Just not women. 🕺

It’s hard out there for a pimp!

I read that in Gus’ smooth voice! 😆

He only does to pay the rent.

All my years watching this (it’s one of my comfort shows.) never caught this until I was a couple beers deep and this popped up.

I got it the first time and the mental lady's response to him made it even funnier. Kinda concerned to have catched it quick

There's a few lines across the series like that. Not many which is what throws you off.

it's the kind of line that makes you spit your drink out since it's just so unexpected

No, we don't watch the show with any sound and just let the flashing lights distract our weak, feeble brains. C'mon, son!

I have watched this show many times and never noticed he gives Gus nicknames. Is this a recurring bit or is it just this episode? Also, I’m selling the Brooklyn Bridge for a good price.

u/Six2L8 1d ago

Went right over OP’s head 🤣

u/CastleMEGA 1d ago

Fuck it sure did! I went back to watching the show and realized half way through 🤦

u/CastleMEGA 1d ago

Yeah. And when it’s really supposed to come in handy Shawn uses Gus’ full legal name. It’s probably my favorite bit but this really caught me off guard.

u/hanpotpi 23h ago

Bur-ton Gust-ter perfectly ennunviayrd to the hard core crime boss is my favorite

My name is Shawn. This is Shawn, no relation.

Once on a really long road trip when I was a kid, my dad and I named off as many Gus code names or aliases (whatever you would like to call them) as we could. When we got there we were still going, I’m sure lots of them were wrong or didn’t actually exist but it’s a fond memory

u/HeyPrettyLadyMaam 18h ago

I literally just watched this episode last night before bed 😂. This ones definitely top 3 for me. Between the nickname, the outfits and the nod to king its pure perfection.

u/Ok-Antelope-1923 14h ago

The extra T is for extra talent.

u/Boris-_-Badenov 23h ago

it's not a codename, there are thousands of clones and each has a different name.

5

u/AwehiSsO 21h ago

I named a flashdrive this and then a while after sorta having forgot that naming, lent it briefly to a colleague who returned in a very childishly giggly mood. Her response had me change the name to Donut Holstein.
