Is Kim Wexler doomed? It’s time to watch Better Call Saul season 5 finale online to see what happens to her (and, yeah, Jimmy McGill) in tonight’s episode. As the acclaimed AMC drama wraps up its fifth season Monday, April 20, several of the characters are between a rock and a hard place — especially Jimmy/Saul (Bob Odenkirk) and Kim (Rhea Seehorn).

Better Call Saul season 5 started with Jimmy taking on the name Saul Goodman after winning his appeal to practice law again. He began taking on low-level criminals as clients but his life got much more complicated when he came into the sphere of the Salamanca drug cartel.

The Better Call Saul season 5 finale airs at 9 p.m. Eastern on AMC, tonight (Monday, April 20)

In the penultimate episode, Saul managed to bail out Lalo Salamanca (Tony Dalton) with the $7 million he hauled through the desert. But a suspicious Lalo didn't believe Saul's cover story and showed up to his and Kim's apartment. Only Kim's bravery and no-nonsense attitude prevented a bloody outcome. But now it isn't just Jimmy who's in the game; Kim is, too. And considering she's never mentioned in Breaking Bad, Kim's fate is one that remains very much in the air.

So what's going to happen in the finale? Lalo is en route to Mexico with Nacho (Michael Mando) but he seems to have a nefarious agenda item left to carry out. Nacho himself wants to get out of Albuquerque, and has Mike (Jonathan Banks) on his side. Unfortunately, Gus Fring (Giancarlo Esposito) has other plans for him. As for Jimmy and Kim, the latter quit her cushy but boring law firm job. Now that she's a free agent, and has gotten a peek into the darker side of Jimmy's work, will she fully partner with him on his shady legal dealings?
