This episode is so well written and filmed. Is a masterpiece in this day and age. Phenomenal episode, full of tension, feelings. What a great episode, IMO, better than Bagman or Bad Choice Road.

Starting off this season, the first episode was kinda slow. But this episode, it's another great and UNFORGETTABLE experience. Vince Gilligan directs this episode with an slide of Breaking Bad's tension, and full of suspension, there's comedy, action, drama and suspense. But the thing i liked about this episode is that... it's perfectly unpredictable.

This episode puts into motion Saul Goodman and Kim Wexler's plan against Howard, the chronological construction of plot in this episode brings all the way back characters that have been appeared since the first season of this show and Breaking Bad. The story arc part that attracted me the most, and i hope the rest of the people could made everybody attracts, it's the Nacho's and cartel arc. Full of tension and suspenseful action, leaving us with a cliffhanger of what's going on among the Nacho's destiny. Not just the action is perfect, cinematography it is, music, full of tension and fear into every single frame. "Carrot and Stick" is a great episode that'll leave you at the edge of the seat, with scenes that make you goosebumps every second and make you speechless. Vince Gilligan, along with the cast, writing team, it's a divine and phenomenal work.

Not just that, THE ACTING, every single actor. Bob Odenkirk, Rhea Seehorn, Jonathan Banks, and the most phenomenal, goosebumping. Giancarlo Esposito, every goddamn actor makes an splendid great work and memorable acting and performance, but the possible Emmy goes to Michael Mando as Ignacio Varga, a role that he was born to do, and he have shown all the acting skills he has been developing across this show and in each and every season, "Carrot and Stick" is among the best episodes of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.

Good episode, it has almost everything you want. It's kinda slow, it has good acting, tension, horror, and a little slice of action. I'll give it a 9/10, my personal opinion.
