## Plot
### Opening

In a flashback to 1999, Chuck McGill and Jimmy McGill have kept a vigil of several days at their mother’s hospital bed. Jimmy leaves to buy sandwiches and while he is gone, his mother wakes and calls his name twice before dying. After Jimmy returns, Chuck tells Jimmy their mother has died and falsely claims she had no last words.

### Main story

Chuck is unconscious after hitting his head at the copy store. Jimmy rushes in to give first aid and tells the clerk to call an ambulance. In the hospital, Chuck correctly deduces that Jimmy bribed the clerk to lie and that is why he was at the copy store. Ernesto covers for Jimmy by claiming that out of concern for Chuck's health, he called Jimmy before bringing Chuck to the copy store.
Jimmy refuses to have Chuck committed to psychiatric care but takes temporary guardianship and allows an MRI and a CAT scan to determine whether he suffered head or neck injuries. The doctor treating Chuck tells Jimmy that Chuck is healthy but has entered a self-induced catatonic state because of the medical tests. When Chuck returns to consciousness, Jimmy informs him of the test results and takes him home.
Mike Ehrmantraut purchases a rifle to use in killing Hector Salamanca. He positions himself on a ridge overlooking a desert site where Hector and his crew are preparing to execute Ximenez Lecerda, but Mike is unable to get a clear shot because Nacho Varga is in the way. Behind him, Mike hears his car horn blaring, so he leaves to investigate. He finds a branch wedged against the horn and a note on the windshield with a single word: "DON’T”.
Howard Hamlin tells Jimmy that Chuck is acting erratically, and Jimmy rushes to Chuck's house where he finds that Chuck has plastered the walls with reflective space blankets. Chuck claims that he needs protection from ambient electromagnetic waves, which he blames for the transposing error on the Mesa Verde documents, and adds that he needs to retire as he is mentally unfit. To calm Chuck, Jimmy admits that he tampered with the documents and bribed the clerk to keep quiet. When Jimmy leaves, Chuck unveils a tape recorder which was recording while Jimmy was present.

## Production

Series co-creator Vince Gilligan revealed that he wanted to have Breaking Bad actress Betsy Brandt (Marie Schrader) make a cameo appearance in the episode, but the writer's room objected, considering the idea to be distracting for audiences.
