Being that many characters that get into security are those who couldn't make the cut into law enforcement or those who wish to have a certain degree of power over others, Lavell Crawford's assertion of his "Breaking Bad" and "Better Call Saul" character ultimately makes a lot of sense. Still, the performer thinks Saul's charisma helped to give Huell that final little push into the dark side.
"Saul's a charmer. He can talk you into things; he can make it make sense so you think you're doing the right thing," Crawford explained. "Then things happen, like last season, when Ted Beneke broke his neck, and we're thinking, 'Holy crap, man, we in some crap now!'"
The actor went on to explain that since Huell sort of got conned into a lot of stuff that was way over his head, his capricious nature made it easy for him to go back the other way when the walls were closing in. "By the time you look up, you're doing crazy stuff. But it's like, 'I'm just doing my job,'" the actor said. "Once the gig is up, though, I'm like, 'Oh man, this is crazy. I ain't going to jail for these sons of bi***es! I'll tell you anything you need to know!'"
