No.. .they just don't pay attention. It's glaringly obvious that the Cinnabon scenes take place after the events of Breaking Bad. I'm not sure how they could have made it more obvious.

I though it was common knowledge and obvious that those scenes were after Breaking Bad while he is hiding out. Maybe I read it in an interview somewhere is why it was so obvious to me. I don't remember.

It's definitely obvious. In the first season he watches old commercials of himself, in the second season he writes "saul was here" on the wall and in the third one he yells to that kid about getting a lawyer. Not to mention he LOOKS 20 years older and black and white also indicates non linear storytelling. People just don't pay attention. Also he says something about relocating and managing a cinnabon in bb

How about that they just forgot?

Yeah, those Cinnabon shows are definitely post- BB but I believe their purpose is to set us up for another chapter of Saul after BCS has caught up to BB. Then we'll skip over the BB years and see how Saul breaks out of Cinnabon and starts a new life -- maybe going in business with Jesse? That would be cool!

I doubt Jesse would come back into it in that manner. He was looking to get away from it all. No more deaths, suffering, mob life, etc. Saul was part of that clique, rightly or wrongly, so I think Jesse would be inclined to maintain his distance from Jimmy as well.

It would be nice to see Jimmy bounce back from it all but I have my doubts there'll be a happy ending. I'm thinking it will be as bleak as BB was with its protagonist. "Crime doesn't pay", etc, etc.

Wouldn't a cozy beach be one of first places they'd look for Saul if they did indeed put out a APB country wide on him. Omaha wouldn't be high on list. Point was if/when needed the fixer was putting him somewhere in country w/ a new ID? but more a place he could blend and hide and continue with life less all the stuff from before. Walt went to NHamp but he was special case. Saul, not so much and with Walt dead not even sure they'd care about Saul?

Saul has millios of dollars.

In today's world a couple million dollars isn't much to hide yourself, first off the most important factor when ghosting yourself is self control, people need to stay off the grid entirely, the situation that Walt had considering he was PE#1 was pretty much accurate he needed to be basically "nowhere" on a large patch of private land with bare essentials, but then you think of the cameras, sat cams but they would never find him unless he came into town. I have to both agree and disagree with some previous plans for Saul's getaway, a Cinnabon in the US? NO imo bad idea, far too many cameras, but it could work, facial recognition software is getting very very good. If I were Saul I would want out of the Country, but getting the new id's and passports and then slapping down a suitcase(s) with say $3mil inside, that's 84lbs that's 300 $10k stacks($1million packed like that =28lbs/per). Idk about you all, but airports make me nervous when I'm just taking a regular flight these days ffs. Saul/Jimmy could have went to say Canada, but he'd prolly end up managing a Cinnabon there too,lol. In today's worlds it's practically impossible to stay undetected and live any sort of a slightly fulfilling life, and even then with the feeling that your door will be kicked in at any moment. That is worse than incarceration itself.

I absconded from parole right out of the gate, so failure to report equals a warrant for arrest and so for the next 47 of the longest most miserable anxiety driven days of my life, PARANOIA HOLY FVCK is an understatement, every single car door, or any of the slightest noises freaked me out, I hid in every single hotel and motel in a 20 mile radius. I highly recommend not absconding when they let your @ss out of wherever you've been detained at(this was damn near 20years back, the idea has only gotten more complex since then). Like I said these days the cameras and your own desires will get you caught, even if you're in the background of a picture that's posted to facebook that gets scanned with FRS(facial recognition software). Boom , now saul, jimmy, or bob is making cinnabon's in federal prison if he's lucky).

Eye retinal scanners are also becoming more ubiquitous. And unlike facial rec, your retinas are like finger prints. They will identify you with a 100% degree of accuracy. With cameras getting more and more high definition, your retinas are more and more at risk of being picked up by a camera somewhere. Especially when you enter any secure building such as a bank.

I still think leaving the country under a fake identity is the best course of action. Of course it's not easy if you have millions of dollars in cash in tow. Trying to leave the country by airplane with millions in cash would be out of the question with TSA searching everyone. But there are other ways to travel. Canada is not a good choice. He would want to go somewhere where they don't have extradition and where he's not likely to be picked up by security cameras every time he goes to the store.

By the way 9/11 is just a pretense for all that security theater at airports today. And searching travelers in the U.S. is a violation of the 4th amendment and the right to travel both which are written into the Constitution. The government has no authority other than granted by the Constitution so these actions are all illegal.

There used to be a lot of different countries who didn't have extradition processes, but over time they have mostly dried up, it also depends how bad the US wants you, but Edward Snowden has been sittin pretty in Russia for quite a while so who really knows. I doubt Snowden would be safe in any other Country cept maybe North Korea.

Whitey Bolger on FBI most wanted list for 20 years hid in "plain sight'

That was probably just the FBI keeping him there on that list so Bulger's cohorts didn't find him suspect and withhold any of their info from him purposely, although he never actually fed them any good information except stuff to eliminate his competition, then he just kept the fbi agents he worked with paid off. The local cops wouldn't dare touch him.
