With only two episodes left, fans still wonder if Kim (Rhea Seehorn) will return in Better Call Saul Season 6. As it remains to be seen what will happen next to this fan-favorite character, there are theories that she will meet her demise in the last two episodes.
Bob Odenkirk seems to deny the claims that Kim will die at the end of Better Call Saul Season 6. With that said, what will happen to Kim?
Bob Odenkirk Weighs In on Kim’s Possible Death in Better Call Saul Season 6 Last Episodes
Fans last saw Kim in Episode 9, Fun and Games, which ended with her split from Jimmy (Odenkirk) after realizing how their relationship had put others in danger following Howard’s death (Patrick Fabian).
The show then featured a time jump and revealed the full transformation of Jimmy into Saul Goodman, starting to reach the Breaking Bad timeline.
As Kim wasn’t seen or even mentioned in the original series, would her character die in Better Call Saul Season 6?

In a video for Vanity Fair, Odenkirk revealed it might not be the case, considering the show had already killed off several lead characters in the past.
If it happens, it will be too predictable that a character as big as Kim may have the same fate.
In fact, the show’s showrunners, Peter Gould and Vince Gilligan, are known for writing too unpredictable stories. So, it may never happen.

However, as the “stakes of the series” are at their highest today, Odenkirk revealed Kim’s death isn’t ruled out yet.
“I understand the idea that Kim would die. In a show where there's life or death stakes, I get it. You should be concerned about that,” he explained. “On the other hand, because some major characters just were slaughtered, it feels like everyone can't die all at once. Unless it's a, you know, apocalyptic scenario.”
The Possible Return of Kim in Better Call Saul Season 6
Kim’s last appearance was believed to be “anticlimactic” if it were her end in the series. With that said, many are still hoping she will be again seen before Better Call Saul Season 6 officially concludes.
So, what can Seehorn say about it?
“I can't say if we see her again,” she told Entertainment Weekly. “And even the fans that were savvy enough to figure out when I was in Albuquerque and when I was not — we shot a lot of stuff out of sequence, whether it was locations or weather or COVID[-19] or whatever. So there was no telling when somebody wrapped or what that meant in the story sequentially. So I'm not going to speak to whether or not we will see her again and in what capacity.”
By the looks of it, fans have to wait and see what will happen to Kim until Better Call Saul Season 6 ends on Monday, August 15.
