Theres no way Kim dies

The show keeps teasing it cause they know we know shes not in Breaking Bad, but they wont ever actually do it.

Mainly cause i couldn't picture Saul being the upbeat cheery charisma oozing lawyer he is Breaking Bad if Kim was killed cause of him, i just couldn't picture him being able to live with himself, let alone continue to be Saul Goodman and going on as if she never existed in Breaking Bad.

To me she either just realizes how much of a bad person Saul is and leaves him, or it gets to the point where she is gonna die has to see the vacuum guy and get a new identity. But theres no way she dies, Jimmy would never be the same imo if she did.

Infact i think shes gonna show up in present day and find Gene and its gonna lead into the post Breaking Bad show dealing with Saul trying to protect his identity and dealing with Kim back in his life, cause that shows gonna need some familiar characters in it, and if we can't have Jesse or Walt its gotta be Kim from BCS.

Yea it does seem highly unlikely that she dies. Being the good girl and leaving Saul because he is too much of a baddie seems too boring and we already saw her starting to "break bad" in the last episodes anyway. The most likely scenario is that it's up to Saul to somehow get her away for her own safety or maybe she ends up in jail after going off solo scamming people. I'm pretty sure it will have something to do with her breaking bad in some way.

They gave a preview of this in the season finale: Jimmy realizes he is bad for her, that she deserves better, that she is at risk, and he finds a way to end the relationship. My bet is that he makes it seem like her idea - does something to make her decide to leave and eventually divorce him, but he does it for her own good.
This is way more plausible than letting Lalo or someone else kill her.
For now, they have set up a story line for her next season that does not parallel this outcome, and perhaps will create some conflict between the 2 story lines?
