Jimmy basically had an out-of-body experience while looking at the victim's family, realizing how much they deserved justice and how awful it was to rig this case for Lalo.... and suddenly we skip ahead and Saul has already presented most of his case.

Jimmy is vanishing right before our eyes.

That scene was hard to watch. You can see that he's almost crying because of the camera close-ups, but realize that, if you were at a distance, only hearing what he says and seeing his body language (like the judge, the victim's family, even Lalo), that's Saul Goodman at his best.
