Would you be able to negotiate with Tuco? What would've happened if you were in Jimmy's place? Let us know⬇⬇
I would be wearing a Columbian neck tie.
If I was in Jimmy’s place, I wouldn’t pull off such a scummy scam to begin with. If I knew I didn’t have a client like the Kettlemans, I’d move on.
cutting the tongues it would be.
You dead.jpeg
U would see a man ran faster than the speed of sound...
We went from skinning to a broken leg… now that’s a lawyer
Only the best of the best could do that.
Best criminal defense your money can buy
He can break your bad crimes and reduce your sentence
Actually it was death down to a broken Leg. Skinning is not ultimately survivable the way Tuco was going to do it
He got from life sentence to 7 years for himself too
These two literally broke into Tuco's house, insulted his abulita, were brought into middle of desert, were held at his mercy and lived to see another day. Now that's a good lawyer.
"I just talked you down from a death sentence to six months probation. I'm the best lawyer ever." -- Saul/Jimmy
Bro
And they didn't have to wear Columbian neckties at sentencing.
And he paid for their medical bills
But permenenlty crippled, they can now scam to government in tax dollars to recieve SSI, the only loser us, we have to pay a portion of what earn to give to these 2 scammers
The most hilarious part is when Tuco slowly repeats Saul’s legal speak like he’s trying to solve a math problem in his head 💀
Mirroring, it's a negotiation technique
He's trying to solve a meth problem in his head.
Make the punishment fit the crime…..
@@23_lolface yeah, should have been Colombian neck ties 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Charlie_Crown Is that the North American version?
I love that Saul pauses at the end before shaking Tuco’s hand. It’s almost like he’s considering Tuco’s offer, making him think that it was his idea in the first place and reinforcing his power in the dynamic. Smart ass man.
that's a smart way to see it, I just thought Saul was hesitating, before giving his green light for breaking those legs ...
@@bm-ub6zc It could be that, but that look on his face makes me think he’s playing tuco
@@j.tastic9132 that's a very good vision for small details
@@bm-ub6zc I have adhd AND autism I’m basically the Sherlock Holmes of CZcams clips of tv shows
I always thought Saul was scared of shaking his hand incase he pulls something like he did with Jesse and beats the shit out of him. It's probably a mix of all three, to be honest
He argued from death sentence to 6 months probation. Now that's a good lawyer. 👍
Being skinned alive is worse than death
not mention the judge is snorting infinity stones...
@@hushni tight with a pinch of multidimensional powers
Love the scene when jimmy drove the twin at the hospital and then twin said he's the worst lawyer, jimmy replied with "I'm the best lawyer ever"
Damn straight he was.
Somebody watched the next 30 seconds of the episode, huh? 😂
"You're the worst lawyer ever!"
"I just talked you down from a death sentence to 6 months probation! I'm the best lawyer ever."
I loved the authority with which Jimmy said that.
If I had a lawyer save me from being tortured to death by a psychotic drug boss with just sheer negotiation and persuasion, I'd be singing their praises forever.
@@scottvelez3154 just proves how stupid those 2 were. i mean seriously trying to scam a dude with a yellow brick that is about to evaporate from earth? really guys?
Did he actually say that?
@@Saiyan96 Yeah, in the next scene after he rushes the two boys to the hospital and is pushing them into the building on wheelchairs.
“That’s tough, and it’s fair” the way he knew exactly how to communicate and cater to his psychotic ego is brilliant.
2:38 Tuco looked like an excited child lol
Amazing
I like how once Saul says "You're all about justice," Tuco is reeled in and listening. 🤣
As soon as he heard "That's what I'm saying" Jimmy knew he had him
I'd imagine Tuco is a guy who has experience with the justice system and getting yelled at by a judge. He probably enjoyed being on the other side of the bench for once.
Jimmy knew that Tuco has a weak spot for grandma/mother and he exploited it even under the extreme stress. He's just a natural persuader.
I also realized that the moment Jimmy mentioned about their mother
Also, among of all the Salamancas, Tuco is the easiest. No wonder he got off first either in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul
@@margarethmichelina5146 AMONG!!!!!!!
@@margarethmichelina5146 there was a scene later on when lalo met saul. He mentioned how he was impressed that saul managed to negotiate with tuco and that the tuco he knew would've let the crows eat their eyeballs
Yes and he also the way he worked the conversation. Instead of arguing or begging, he put the two on trial and put Tuco in the judge's seat. That reframing of the conversation was huge.
One of the reasons why Jimmy could negotiate with Tuco: Tuco likes him. He likes that he's got the courage to talk like that with showing respect.
He made Tuco believe he was some sort of ancient lord or judge, Tuco the Just 😂
@@brighterrecorder1645 these tough guys act like that, hes not believing hes being just, hes actually just laughing the lawyer thinks hes convincing him of that
Also Jimmy has charisma and great social skills, he even made Walt and Jesse pay him while he was being kidnapped
@@Chris-qo4rtBut that's because Walt and Jesse were two dumbasses backthen KKKKKK
@@duckboi4509 in real life maybe, but not the Tuco in BCS 😂
3:28 - the intensity of that short but so powerfully delivered "stop helping", combined with the knowledge of the events from Breaking Bad, gives me chills
Lmao I love the “reference” (I guess) to breaking bad. Too bad the helper didn’t learn his lesson this time, the entirety of breaking bad wouldn’t even have happened.
Saul unlike Walt knows when to shut up
This is by far one of the best prequel and sequel shows ever because all they did was watch b.b find what stories they left open or could expand upon n put em here. Everything that did or didn't happen n bb started here..same with dude talkn outta turn. In bb we see him finally get tired of his sh!t
"Just remember who you're working for"

What did you say?
It’s crazy to think that Raymond Cruz and Bob Odenkirk are both in their mid fifties in this scene but still portray pretty convincing 30 year olds.
I think Bob looks his age but Raymond could pass for early to mid 30’s here.
@@thenablade858 Raymond Is 63
@@bloodymosquitobloodymosqui1337 I’m aware he’s older, but he looks younger here. Bob always looks his age imo.
Jimmy is 41-42 here (you see his ID once and it says he was born November 12, 1960) but otherwise I agree.
@@bloodymosquitobloodymosqui1337yes, but this was filmed 8 years ago.
I love how Tuco instantly respects Saul because he can roll so well with his crackhead energy.
These are just actors acting, the one in the suit is named Bob Odenkirk. Apparently, he’s not a religious fanatic.
@@lightningbolt4419 what...?
@@lightningbolt4419 congratulations
@@lightningbolt4419 Shut!!..
@@randymarshislorde
Crackhead energy is not about substance abuse, it is a mindset.
It is the deranged Venn Diagram intersect of those likely to be into crypto, those who used to torture small animals and those who would get married to a stripper in Texas.
Tuco holding out his hand to shake Jimmy’s, as if they just got done negotiating a business deal for discounted sneakers, is absurdly hilarious.
he is insane and unpredictable, having moments of calm rationality like that is equally terrifying as unhinged rage.
I mean Jimmy negotiated the hell out of that.
I think he’s also testing Saul, if he’s actually negotiating or just wasting his time trying to get him to not hurt the boys at all. When Saul shakes his hand he passed the “test” too
V
It was really cute
When Tuco was introduced in Breaking Bad, I thought he was a complete monster. Who would have guessed that he was actually the most moral and reasonable of all the Salamancas?
When he's not on drugs at least, if he hadn't been on them Nacho wouldn't have had a problem with him and none of their problems would've started.
lol, not saying a lot though is it :)
Yeah people hate on tuco because it's just a thing to do they love obsessing over their drug lords like lalo. Tuco harms and lashes out on people as a coping mechanism its really the only way he knows how to keep himself safe due to the abuse he faced with Hector and to top it all of he uses drugs to make him even more aggressive and crazed. But off drugs he's very soft spoken and kind and even reasonable but if you dare make him feel inferior he'll kill you with no hesitation he can't stand to have it any other way because it brings him back to the abuse from Hector. Tuco literally is just a scared little boy in a mans body and a cruel world so he's living the only way he knows how.
@@godloveszazai agree tuco is dangerous yet misunderstood
The fact that Tuco was consistently the Cartel's most valuable Salamanca asset is hilarious, but it also highlights just how big of a lid Walter and Jesse blew open by getting him killed.
Ironically, he was the most stable peg in an unstable pyramid. The Twins were glorifyed drones. Hector? He was right in the end but burned all his bridges with his old-school showboating. And the cartel itself was *NOT* a fan of Lalo being such a wild card. No, somehow each Salamanca we met ended up being worse than the last which I find hilarious given just how terrifying Tuco was during his tenure.
3:36 Such a kean learner.
I hope he learned his lesson and will never interrupt his boss again ❤
It sure would be a shame if he was beaten to death and his partner bleeds to death whilst trying to give him a proper burial
You're saying it like nobody here saw that scene. Are you saying they're stupid?
No homes, I'm just saying, he's gotta know he shouldn't interrupt the boss.
@@dsch0 Oh, so you're trying to say that Im stupid, is that right?
@@aakashsaini2184 Come on Tuco, I'm just saying-
What i love about Tuco is how he can go from calm to rage in a matter of milliseconds. Very unpredictable and scary villain.
Unpredictable and scary would be Lalo. Tuco killed his goon right after getting disrespected , which is a predictable rage. Meanwhile Lalo would just smile , maybe pat their backs and choose another time to kill them
people say gus is the scaries.. yall must have forgot about tuco XD he's always wild in every scene absolutely crazy
@@bronwyn.406 DISRESPECTED??????? his goon was killed because tuco felt killing someone.
And the actor is a really sweet calm dude who says that he is very shy and antisocial and almost nerdy. He says Tuco is basically a complete oposite of him and it is very very difficult for him to behave this way. Either he is lying or he should win multiple Oscars.
Tuco is your typical long term or heavy meth user.
Saul's adrenaline level must have been through the roof. He must have felt like he'd conjured a demon, and talked it into doing his taxes.
Something tells me Saul wasn't really too concerned about his taxes.
@@CB-xr1eg I hear you. But now that I think about it, I sure would like to hire him to do MY taxes! ;-)
You're wrong buddy , saul is fearless
@@alaaeddine_ouattas Lalo Salamanca has entered the chat.
If we're going down the talking to demons, path then Saul would put a demon summoner to shame with his outstanding negotiations skills.
I love how Saul repeats Tuco's "like a judge" line with the tone of pretending he hadn't thought of it like that, leading Tuco to think that it was his idea to begin with 😄
Tuco shaking hands with Saul is brilliant. Like he's negotiated with him as an equal. Lot of respect there
The look of excitement in tuco’s eyes when he says “You want me to BLIND them”
Like a kid on Christmas morning
Lol
Kills me every time. He’s like ah hell yeah now we talking 😂😂
@@WolfsBaneTv exactly bro, he’s literally pumped. It kills me that he doesn’t realize that Jimmy is tryna talk him OUT of any sorts of gruesome violence
@@Chief24914 It makes me wonder what sort of horrific things he witnessed Hector Salamanca do, or his actual parents. Must've been some El Chapo level shit.
Ngl, I'd probably settle for it. Still a very light sentence compared to skinning them.
The look of pity on Tuco's face when he imagines the lady that scrubs the floor of rich people certifies that Latinos are very family oriented folks especially to their moms.
That's a fact, bro.
And class-conscious 😁.
now that's something to respect
That’s cool. These are still hardened criminals, the garbage of society. Stop idolizing then.
That we are.
“Just remember who you work for” guy was already irritating Tuco here
That one right there foo, he already got a black eye 🤨
He hates Captain obvious 😂
I love that he literally has nothing to bargain with and STILL got to a satisfactory end, legitimately the pinnacle of a lawyer's ability
Tuco stole every scene he was in. You just knew you were seeing a loose wrecking ball that could swing in any direction. Thank you, Raymond Cruz, for this character.
I love the Tuco character…but in this scene Jimmy has my attention almost the whole time.
He said he didn't like playing the part because it went against his nature...

@@pIayingwithmahwii Yeah..kkkkkkk

He has a soft spot for old ladies because they remind him of his grandma
He talked tuco down from a death sentence to 6 months probation. Insane lawyering skills right there
That look at 1:01 is absolutely terrifying and the fact that Jimmy still wanted to save the two mopheads and didn't run for his life is amazing. He's really not a bad person at heart.
"Eye for an eye....you want me to blind em!" Sums up his character so well lmao
And Tuco looked so happy when he thought Jimmy said it
“I’m cutting their legs off”
Tuco was such a good friend, loaning Jessie and Walter money up front, paying Jessie for pain and suffering, sparing two guys lives. We all could use a friend like tuco
He even made them some mean tacos when he invited them on a road trip. What a classy guy
And he beat a guy to death just for speaking to Jesse and Walt the wrong way
hehe... no.
@@GoGetYourShinebox hell yes!! Hell yes! Finally some people who "get it"
We are all more like tuco then we realise
@@huyla1472 those tacos were the 'bomb"
I really liked how Tuco and Jimmy practically talked like friends here
“Eye for an eye… you want me to blind them! :0”
“Punishment.. fit.. the crime… *gasp* Colombian neck ties! :D”
I love how Tuco acts like a kid in a word guessing game, so excited when he thinks he’s found the answer
It's the Tuco equivalent of "Ahhhh, wire!"
My favorite line in this sequence is how Tuco nonchalantly decides that maybe he should cut their legs off.
“We’re going in the wrong direction here” lol
Even in real life i wont dare to disrespect tuco
Mine too!!
J
Hilarious delivery
This scene shows that despite being a complete psychopath, Tuco is arguably the Salamanca who cares the most about people thinking he’s a good person. He wants to show the world that he’s fair lmao
Tuco is not like the other Salamancas. Hector and Lalo never had any empathy to begin with and their ruthless and violent behavior were present the day they were born. Tuco and the twins however were shown to be normal children, until Hector started to "raise" them. Exposing a child to constant violence and abuse will change it; Tucos moral compass is flawed because of Hector. His uncle made him feel weak and defenseless as a child, so lashing out on other people is Tucos way to be in control and not feel like the victim. I think that would also explain why Tuco is always high on a substance, that make people more aggressive and aware, and why the twins are completely anti-social.
@@timonfischer6515 exactly, some people think that Tuco is worst but he is just crazy and not pure evil like Lalo and Hector.
Way I see it, it's not about image, it's about actually being fair. He probably got off on seeing himself like a judge from that day on. Think of the Mike scene, it just escalates beyond all reason once hints of disrespect show up, those also = crimes they gotta pay for in his eyes, then the anger takes over.
@@ciarangallagher9330I feel like someone could walk inside Tucos house, make a mess and if Tuco was off drugs and in a good mood, he'd only knock them out. Tuco is unironically the most reasonable Salamanca there is, and that speaks volumes to how fucked this family is.
@@whatno3145 yea on the house thing, not the most reasonable salamanca though, that'll be Lalo, you can just talk that guy down if you make a good point, no need to appeal to his ego to get it done
3:27 when no doze chimes in and tuco threatens him was so seamless. You didnt even know a nod to Breaking bad was coming until it was over with.
The fact that Tuco is willing to negotiate is amazing
This is the moment when Tuco became Negotiateberg.
It’s cause Jimmy immediately appealed to his ego
Maybe him not being on meth helped
@@metempsychoza111 this is the moment when Tuco became Notbeingonmethberg
@@joynergrim4003thats incredibly funi, congratulations
Damn, Saul honestly fell so far.
Here, his conscience couldn't let him leave these two kids to their deaths despite being pulled away, yet by BB he's literally the one suggesting "maybe it's time to send him to, Belize?"
By Breaking Bad he'll throw Badger under the bus to save his own skin
Saul would do it now. Tuco isn’t gonna kill him here, but if Saul’s life was on the line he’d let them die. But at the same time, that’s just how such business goes.
@@TomboTimeif the mosquito’s buzzing around you don’t go kill the mosquito’s attorney
To be fair, him suggesting getting people killed in BB was because they werent even an innocent citizen like in this case. Jimmy or Saul, both will do everything in his power to protect an innocent citizen but when it comes to bad guys, hey, sometimes that's the better solution.
“Why dont you just kill badger?” From breaking bad…
It's funny how those two are just there wriggling helplessly while watching Tuco and Saul negotiate their mortality 😂
Honestly I wouldve just shut up and listened if 2 guys were negotiating whether I should live or die
And you're damn right I'd take the broken legs @@Lydiastragic
Of all the hard, impossible things Saul has pulled off, talking Tuco out of this was his life achievement
This a master class of de-escalation and manipulation, what an amazing character Saul is!
3:25 Now we understand why Tuco has easily lost his patience in Breaking Bad and killed his partner. It wasn't the first time.
that scene was funny 😂😂

@@BrownSoldier96so your not saying that he's stupid..so I don't understand are you saying that IM stupid.....
"you say they don't deserve her"
That's the biggest takeaway from this. Tuco didn't say anything, he thought it. I'm not saying Jimmy can read minds but he knew Tuco would think about what he's saying in such a intense situation and agree that they don't deserve her.
It’s better than that- he’s making tuco THINK that he actually thought that, because subconsciously he already agreed with the statement- jimmy puts it out into the air and sort of cons tuco into thinking he thought it
@@Condoctucman’s a certified psychologist

2:45 “you want me blind them 😏” 😭🤣
😅
The "black eyes" thing was an excellent negotiating technique. Giving a radical offer, unacceptable to the other, so that the alternative, the next offer, "we can spring their ankles", you give them, appears more reasonable.
I love how they're always raising the bars with every Salamancas:
Started out with mentally unstable Tuco then the silent twins, then Hector who is calm and a Don Cartel and then there's Lalo who is friendly, charming and unpredictable and also unhinged.
Hector is anything but calm.

Hadent Jimmy put EVERY bit of his lawyerconviction into persuading Tuco... Tuco would have indeed cut off both their legs, and let them bleed to death, without a second thought.
In fact, Tuco wuld have slept even better that night, knowing that he put the 2 dipshits that insulted his Abuelita, through such extreme and gruesome pain and death.
Lol good ol Tuco escalating it further any chance he gets 😂
I read this as soon as he said that
@@saulgoodman2071 same
@@saulgoodman2071 you were reading comments while talking to Tuco, Jimmy?
Saul is using a very good sales tactic here...he keeps suggesting options but letting Tuco agree as though he thought of them. In Tuco's mind he walked away thinking he was tough but fair. Masterful move by Saul.
One of the hardest moment in Jimmy's career, Being in the dessert with the full lawyer suit would totally melt him, Truly a great lawyer
Remember, This is not the Tuco we remember from BrBa because he was just starting to use drugs in this timelapse. This is why he looks very reasonable (considering Tuco's insanity in general.)
It actually really surprised me that he looked incredibly calm when those 2 kids insulted his grandma. The BrBa Tuco wouldn't waste time driving them to the desert to skin them alive lol
Not exactly accurate. He went from Biker crank in the mid 90's to meth in the early 2000's.
He was only calm because the grandma was there. I think he would've also been calm in front of her in Breaking Bad, no matter what drugs he is on.
@@jeronimo196 yeah you're probably right. But he still looked really calm after grandma left the room. It was kinda cute ngl
Also because his abuleta died while he was in prison which drove him over the edge
I can't even imagine his reaction when he realized that Nacho betrayed him and his family, putted his tío in a wheelchair and was to blame for Lalo's "death".
3:25 just remember who you’re working for
"Stop....helping!"
I swear I could watch this scene 1000 times and never get tired of it. It's probably my favorite scene in the entire BB universe.
I love how no one in the cartel could believe that this guy talked Tuco out of something.
For real - Lalo heard about it and in every scene after with him and Saul, he never lets Saul finish a sentence. He respects Saul's ability to talk his way out of things so much that his strategy is literally just never give him the chance.
Something people don’t give Tuco credit for is his cunning mind. You can see it everytime he stops and listens and even when Walt’s blows up his operation you see him snap back into being a good businessman if he stayed off the drugs he would’ve been a Don likely
He was a don. Just couldn't follow the main rule. Never get high on your own supply.

Bob Odenkirk is just one heck of an actor.
I love how tuco puts away the knife signaling, "I'm not cutting anything, just breaking"
The threats that Tuco was making are 10x worse than anything we actually saw in either show (or at least was implied happening). The worst was Tortuga's decapitation, which is still nothing compared to getting skinned or having your esophagus ripped out.
Even scarier when you consider El Chapo actually authorized executions similar to that in real life.
“Stop helping”
So good lmao
I’m glad to know that Tuco’s henchman took his advice and stopped helping and they had a great relationship from that point on.
It was only No-Doze that really had a problem. Gonzo kept his mouth shut.

@@jockmcscottish7569 yep, this was fore(pre?)shadowing his death due to not knowing when to keep his mouth shut.

Man...the comedic-tense mood of these episodes was unique, the last season instead is a sad-depressing painting.
so true
Just like BrBa
From being flayed alive to a broken tibia each, while giving nothing back in return and making Tuco think it was his own idea.
Slipception
The fact that these two tried to scam Tuco's grandma, disrespected her in front of Tuco inside their own house and still made it out alive makes them the luckiest characters in the entire BB/BCS universe.
This is the best representation of a good negotiation I've seen. Excellent. He identifies what both sides' needs and interests are, and uses that to frame the negotiation
Quite a job
I love Tuco. WE loved Saul so much taht they made a spinoff with him, now it's safe to say that they should make a spinoff of Tuco.
they will have to pay raymond cruz a lot of money to convince him to play tuco though. raymond cruz said it himself he doesnt like playing tuco because hes a very violent character
@@ilikelofi2119 raymond cruz doesn't like violent character? That was a surprise, he really nailed it playing tuco.
@@benjaminwilson1804 Agreed, he's gotta be a really good actor considering he doesn't like being a violent character because he was terrifying as Tuco!
@@benjaminwilson1804 I actually read that his wife hates his char a lot. Maybe that is why he doesn't like to play him?
@@FFIZeath the wife story is not true. Cruz has said in multiple interviews that he was in the show The Closer at the same time as BB and had to film The Closer Mon to Fri and then fly to New Mexico every weekend to film his BB scenes and it became too exhausting especially having to amp up as Tuco. So they decided to kill him off because Cruz couldn’t maintain that kind of schedule for very long.
Jimmy smartly included "scrubbing rich man floor" sentence which makes Tuco subconsciously remember his own house floor that he scrubbed earlier which makes him rich man in the situation. And subconsciously put him in power. Smart!
You can also overthink stuff
@@jensbjelke8220 It's not overthinking, just think about it why jimmy would want to give that exact example.
@@suzzit Because its a cliche example
Yeah, that's not it at all. You jumped some fences to get to that conclusion.
@@jevy12 Sometimes you gotta jump a few fences to break a couple eggs, you know?
All of the Salamancas appreciate courage more than anything. Tuco worked with Walt because he had the balls to walk in, demand payment for the stolen product, and request future business. Hector respected Mike because he refused to take the deal to let Tuco walk and played hardball despite the threat of death. Lalo respected Nacho for sneaking into the drug house the police were raiding to retrieve the drugs. Lalo respected Jimmy for going into the desert to get his bail money. The Salamanca twins respected Nacho for surviving Gus's fake shootout and helping them when they raided the rival gang.
Bravery, courage, or just having cajones. This is the thing the Salamancas respect.
No one knew that one side kick in his very first scene of the show would go on to become one of the greatest characters on television.
Nacho Varga, a great tragic character.
Skinned alive or broken leg?
Me: "Yes thank you for my broken leg, Tuco. I really appreciate it. You are a good man and I will never cross or upset you again."
That's what I'm saying, they're sitting there crying and panicking but if I heard Saul talk Tuco down from slicing my throat, I'd breath a sigh of relief and relax at that point knowing I'm only going to get my leg broken lol.
If I ever got in trouble, I definitely want this dude as my lawyer. Like that will be insane
If I ever went to Prison, I would want Tuco as my best friend.
"Stop helping."
Ooh, how he didn't listen.
This scene is a masterpiece. Shows all sides of Tuco, and how skilled Jimmy is.
Season 5 - Breaking Bad Saul would have kept walking
Totally right. Man its depressing how jimmy kept changing in better call saul.
Saul definitely would have left them to die. But this was Jimmy, not Saul
Saul is insane for being able to negotiate even with an unpredictable, quick tempered psychopath
Well, at least it's possible to negotiate with Tuco, he's like a big psychotic child who's very easy influenced; if it was Hector in his place, I doubt any of these skaters would end up alive
@@biancarossa9728 agreed Hector definitely would have killed those skaters and possibly even Saul that’s the difference I’m
Not too sure how Lalo would be in this situation and for the Salamanca twins they also probably would have killed everyone there
Lalo would have been a losing game. He would have let Saul bargain for just breaking their legs and casually slit their femoral artery while breaking their legs to kill them, if Lalo did not just get around to killing them.
Even though this is supposed to be an intense scene, I can't help but laugh whenever Tuco decides on the punishment . Eye for an eye, "You want me to blind them". Tuco man.😂
2:34 did the guy on the rights hair fall?
Lmao yeahhh 😂
I think that Tuco was needed in this. Insane, ruthless, meaner than a rattlesnake but loved his family. The guy who played him is world class.
Very powerful scene between two incredible actors
Agreed, really unfair how the two skateboarders didn't win an emmy.
@@sw2de3fr4gt 😂
This scene is honestly brilliant. I can't think of any other scene in anything else that combines extreme tension and sense of dangerous with phenomenal comedy. It's an unusual combination of emotions for sure where you're laughing your ass off while on the edge of your seat waiting for Tuco to snap back and kill something
“Im gonna skin them like javelinas” always gets me man 😂😂😂
don’t know why they were still screaming after tuco accepted the one leg each deal. if it were me i’d no doubt like “shit this is gonna really suck” but i’d shut the hell up, wouldn’t want him to change his mind lmao. better than getting my tongue pulled through my throat 😭
Screaming may be a good idea just to make him think it'll be more terrifying than it really is, further encouraging him.
3:18
*Saul: "You could give them black guys"*
*"Tuco: Black ice?"*
"Stop. Helping"
my favorite part about this is how both Saul and Tuco slowly get in the zone. Saul goes from being fearful to full lawyer mode, and Tuco goes from being amazed at saul trying to talk to him to actually start hearing him out
It’s a psychological technique he used on Tuco. He set him up on a pedestal, praised him for being fair and just. These are virtues we all desire. By doing so, he implanted an expectation in Tuco’s mind. Tuco subconsciously felt compelled to live up to this expectation of being fair and just.
The next step was to define the terms of "fair" and "just" for Tuco. With Tuco already positioned on a pedestal and feeling the pressure to meet these virtues, it created a psychological manipulation. It's a fine balance to maintain because suggesting actions inconsistent with being fair and just would disrupt the entire manipulation. Therefore, the key is to carefully frame every suggestion and action within the parameters of fairness and justice, ensuring that Tuco continues to act in line with the expectations set for him. This delicate balance is crucial to sustain the psychological influence and achieve the desired outcome.
Tuco’s got the makings of a varsity athlete.
He also knows where the gabagoo is!
Cross reference
He told his loudmouth guy "stop helping" but he never listened. It later got him killed.
This scene made me realise the importance of learning how to negotiate, especially how to communicate properly what you are asking for and finding a win-win situation that makes everybody walk away happy. Great scene and great writing, Vince Gilligan!
From death to broken leg. I’ll take that.
i like how they were still "screaming" and shaking their heads no to the 1 broken leg.
like ok yeah, its about to be a painful day... but you guys were about to be SKINNED
Better that they show fear; that was part of the deal they made to Tuco. Also; they could be so afraid but still excited that they escaped death, so their fear is elevated.
I mean, they really didn't like the prospect, I don't blame them for freaking out
When you lived a too comfortable life that punishment/consequences is not real for you, you wouldn't even take a finger wound
@@johnlui887 it's funny because they don't seem to mind throwing themselves out for money
Just amazing acting and storytelling, so packed with energy and nuance.
this whole scene makes me think, apart from the obvious brilliance of jimmy, about nacho. he's watching this guy successfully plead with tuco for a less harsh punishment. he knew he could use a guy like him in the future.
