A Better Call Saul season 6, episode 12 image further teases Kim Wexler's return during the show's penultimate installment titled "Waterworks." Since Better Call Saul premiered in 2015, Rhea Seehorn's dedicated attorney, Kim, has acted as the show's deuteragonist and a love interest for Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk). Since Kim never appears nor is mentioned in Breaking Bad, audiences naturally wondered what happened to Jimmy's close confidante. After five-and-a-half seasons, fans finally got their answer.

Since its premiere this past April, Better Call Saul season 6 has further depicted Jimmy's evolution into the titular criminal lawyer as he and his wife execute a devious plot to ruin Howard Hamlin's career and a force a resolution in the Sandpiper case, which indirectly results in the death of their former HHM colleague. Racked by the guilt of her unscrupulous actions, Kim decides to surrender her law license and leave Jimmy for good. This finally completes his transformation into Saul Goodman and propels the show ahead into its black-and-white Gene Takavic timeline.

Now, the official poster for Better Call Saul season 6, episode 12 has been revealed, teasing Kim's return during the show's penultimate installment titled "Waterworks." The black-and-white image shows a Palm Coast Sprinkler billboard with the company's tagline, "Watering Your World Since 1978." Check out the episode poster below:

During the previous episode of Better Call Saul, it is revealed that Kim is now working for Palm Coast Sprinkler in Titusville, Florida right before she and Gene have a heated conversation over the phone which is intentionally muffled by traffic noise, forcing fans to speculate about what was said. As soon as episode 12's title was revealed as "Waterworks," fans began speculating that it would see the return of Kim. The episode title likely refers to the sprinkler company she is working for, while also hinting at how emotional the show's penultimate installment will be, especially for those hoping to see a happy ending for Jimmy and Kim.

Episode 12's poster seemingly confirms that the "Waterworks" title refers to Palm Coast Sprinkler and further teases Kim's return. Better Call Saul season 6 has released an official poster for every episode thus far that teases something exciting to come. For instance, the poster for episode 11, "Breaking Bad," featured a boiling flask, hinting at the return of the beloved meth-making duo, Walter White and Jesse Pinkman. Similarly, "Waterworks" will likely explore how Kim came into the employment of a sprinkler service in Florida and even reveal what was said during her and Gene's contentious phone call. Though whether or not Kim is interested in reconciling with Gene remains to be seen in Better Call Saul's penultimate episode which premieres tonight at 9pm on AMC.
