Better Call Saul, S3 (2017)
In Season 3 of Better Call Saul, Jimmy praises Francesca’s patience as a former DMV worker, likening it to the fifth circle of Dante’s hell, after they interview her as a candidate to become an office secretary. He says, “She’s more than adequate! She worked at the DMV, that’s like the fifth circle of Hell! Look, she’s overqualified; if it doesn’t work out, we can fire her. It’s no big deal.”
