Copper. It's a thing. Moscow Mules mugs and Zafiro Añejo bottle caps. Jimmy's Indian Head penny. Last week, Jimmy and Kim were talking about scamming the guy in glasses (lotsa guesses who that was) who they'd let keep the South African mining rights on Giselle's land. All we need is Mike watching an old flick on TV about Jimmy Cagney and dirty "coppers" to top it off (ah, that's right, Jimmy's already been arrested). We'll just have to settle for Mike's comment to Chuck about stolen copper wiring and this latest metal detector and arrowheads comment for now.

Anyway, they're class and colonialism references. By series end it will be more clear about the connections and consequences of mining and stripping developing countries resources for concentrated power and gain to US/Europe to the spiking drug trade in those impoverished countries.

Bonus: Mike's arrowhead comment to tribal police is a red herring, it refers to water rights, sourcing, dumping and pollution, closer to home. Kevin offers a drilling case to Kim, whose attorney can't make "heads or tails of it." IRL the Texas/NM border was in litigation for fracking.
