Confused by the Confusion!
I really don't understand all the negative reviews for this episode?
I think some people may have got caught up in the excitement of the recent story arc and forgotten about previous plot lines.
Now the prequel is catching up with the events of Breaking Bad, it's flicking forward to Post-Saul (Gene), shot in Black and White to signify the different timeline.
Yes, they changed the actor that plays Jeff and maybe this has added to the confusion. But, if you (re)watch the first 10 mins of season 4 episode 1 and season 5 episode 1 before this episode the wider story makes perfect sense.
It's also quite apparent that this isn't a stand alone episode like "Fly" from Breaking Bad, which some fans have likened it to. Instead it sets the scene for what will likely come next.
I would expect there to be more Gene sequences as the season continues and I for one welcome them.
In the same way Jimmy became Saul, Saul becomes Gene for the next chapter of this great show.
