Better Call Saul is the prequel to the award-winning series Breaking Bad, set six years before Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) became Walter White's lawyer. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and often against, Jimmy is "fixer" Mike Erhmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy's transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts "criminal" in "criminal lawyer."

He's the only Salamanca who can talk with people normally
Because he is a charismatic sociopath
".....let's talk"
@@isthatsquid I'm so anxious about this upcoming conversation
I have a question (spoilers for season 6)
I was wondering why were jimmy and kim scared to find Lalo alive at the end of season 6, when howard was there. As far as I remember they lied pretty well and kim even stood up to Lalo then why were they scared if Lalo didn't know they were involved with mike?
@@bharatsadhnani4370 Exactly, they finish with Lalo, he was supposed to go to Mexico and they would never see him again, unless Lalo found out that they lied to him, which is why Kim is so scared, as for Jimmy, he didn't know that Lalo was alive and like Kim feared that if Lalo came back it was for revenge.
I always knew Lalo was a bad person, but the moment he became truly irredeemable was when he tapped the goldfish tank after Jimmy told him not to
Hahahaha
It's true though
Sheeeeeeeeeeeesh
LOL! Lalo is the ultimate cucaracha - could survive a nuclear holocaust that man!
@@Samstar369 no, you are wrong, tapping the fish’s tank while the fish was in there was without a doubt the worst thing lalo has done
Lalo is one of those rare people, who would have succeeded in literally in 90 percent of anything he tried. The guy is like a maxed out video game character 😂
And him going to the US is like returning to the first stage at max level. Unfortunately, you can still die if you’re too cocky.
@@bluesummers5051 Yea its always tricky trying to make a home video for your uncle in the basement of his rival, while holding a gun 🤣
@@bluesummers5051 Lalo should have killed Gus and compiled the evidence if Gus didn’t have the most ridiculous plot armour possible: being alive in breaking bad. Lalo killed a legion of assassins, and yet he couldn’t land a single shot on a short, overweight middle-aged man who’s running in a linear fashion? Nonsense! I love BCS, but Lalo’s death just felt like a huge low-point in the show.
yeah! you describe lalo Exactly right! man I love this Character
@___ 7 Mike was a Maxed out Detective and a fixer, but age catches up to us all, he underestimated Walt, dropped his guard, and got shot with his own gun.
The way he says "You love him!" to Kim, as if he is suddenly remembering that is something regular people do, is so telling of his character.
I felt it was him working out that Saul hadn't returned & the job wasn't successful, at least not yet.
He had no idea what happened to Saul at this point, but is connecting the dots. It shows his intelligence in getting to the bottom of things
I thought it was more that he was impressed that someone can actually love Saul. The concept of someone like Kim finding Saul both attractive and loveable seems a bit bizarre to him, as well as the fact that Lalo at this point doesnt know that Saul failed to come back.
The way I left the same comment before I read yours, lmao. It is honestly telling.
Not really . I took it more like when Tuco Went through Walt's wallet and smiled at the fact that Walt has kids he even says "I love doing business with a family man " insinuating that he can always threaten to kill his family /loved ones as leverage .
No, it was more of a moment of him thinking "gottcha! There is my in. I've got my hooks in now" because now he knows there is collateral and it gives him more power of the situation. It has nothing to do with him realising its a feeling he hasn't felt himself. Its all about the bigger picture with lalo and this whole thing is a giant chess match and he's just after finding the next move that benefits his interests more.
Lalo is like if you take Saul's charisma, Gustavo's brains and Mike tactical ability and mix it into one person.
and todd's sociopathy
nah he definitely had the tactics of the twins. Mike's age limits his mobility, so he relies on his cleverness to be tactical. lalo has brilliant tactics, but I don't see Mike using one of his own guys as a human shield to block a bullet.
@@thirdnebula1823 The reason you don't see that is because he is his own man. He works alone most of the time.
Always felt like Lalo is a younger version of Mike....they both are quite similar in terms of abilities...
Lalo makes great decisions under pressure too...his decision to leave that tunnel entrance exposed was what helped him neutralize the assassins.
Mike just has more experience and a better understanding of a criminal's psychology.
@solo xi you are right, he wasnt even close to convincing the red hair guy to show him the camera footage. doesnt seem very charismatic to me
Dude is scarier than Tuco. At least you knew Tuco was crazy. You just don't know when Lalo is gonna be crazy.
With Tuco, you knew exactly what you were going to get- a bullet or a beating if you weren't extremely careful and kept to yourself. With Lalo, he affably invites you to come closer and let your guard down, and the consequences of disobeying him there are more dangerous than getting stuck in- and so now you're stuck in a minefield where you *probably* won't die, but you'll never, ever know what the correct next step is.
Yup. Lalo is the kind of guy who you could know for years and still not know what makes him tick.
Even with the twins, you could tell what their personality was by looking at them. Cold and cruel. But with Lalo, you can never quite read him. He'll smile in your face one second like he's your friend and then shoot you in the head the next second. Also he's extremely intelligent. That makes him the most terrifying Salamanca
Amazing performances by actors that play Tuco and Lalo!!!!!
Comical Realm Animations what happened to tuko BTW?
Lalo didn’t show up until the end of season 4 of 6 of BCS and wasn't in Breaking Bad at all, and he STILL immediately became one of the best characters in the entire series
Lol fr tho
Him and Nacho
@@mirunahodo4573 true
I agree. He's one of the most interestingly written and perfectly performed by Tony Dalton. He made the character on the page come to life and he was the reason the character of lalo goes down as legendary and as memorable as anyone else of the entire show
I was hooked everytime he was on screen and was left awaiting whatever he was up too lol. Funny but terrifying
Lalo is probably the most normal Salamanca to talk to and yet is the most psychopathic
High functioning psychopathy. Not sure if he is a primary or secondary.
That's what psychopaths do
Like Todd Alquist or Dimitri from GTA IV.
When Twins mess up, they must explain to Lalo....
The twins and Tuco are way more psychopathic in my opinion.
What makes Lalo scary is how unpredictable he is.
Thats every Salamanca if you think about it. But he's a charismatic psychopath lol
@@ObamaBinKillin
True, I think Tuco would be the exception.
Hector was just as scary as Lalo
he is the berlin of breaking bad universe.
@@mustaquimahmedtanbeer2437 exactly
Lalo is paranoid. HE's higly intelligent and calculating: he thinks of évery possible scenario or outcome in any situation. That makes him prepared for the worst.
Even craziër: that makes him always be 1 step ahead of people!
Lalo is more dangerous then the Twins, Tuco, and perhaps even Don Hector together!
I'm curious to see Lalo's fate in Season 6 of BCS.
I'm going to assume he'll die, or get a multiple life-sentence in a US Maximum-security facility then at best: Totally out of the picture.
Lalo's got éverything to become the new Don of the Juarez Cartel, when Don Eladio were to pass on the Scepter. Lalo's already Eladio's favorite...
I love how lalo could have easily escaped through the tunnel but instead he decided like a boss to turn back and take the fight.
Beacuse he knew they would come after him
@@yahawashiisking144 fair point but still badass tho
he also heard his family(?) screaming so i think he wanted to kill them after that
@@Ty-L15 foreal he loved his family
I think he decided to fight back from the very start..he purposely did not close the bath tub escape door so that the assassins will be lured into it and made them think that he already took off
For me, Lalo is just flat out evil. The fact that he dared to fall from a ceiling and cause property damage to a beloved small business is just truly sickening
Thanks for the laugh
i'd laugh if i remember how
ha
So funny
A true menace to the society
I like how Lalo gains a whole new level of respect for Jimmy when he realizes he has a hot wife. And then he reasons out that she must love him, like he only understands emotions on an intellectual level.
thats a great catch actually- i do think he cant understand person to person love per say but he does have genuine affection- for eg his workers at his compound who he greeted so effusively and his reaction to finding them dead
@@jdbhatts2912 What's even more psychopathic is the way he used his neighbors by making the male have perfectly matching dental records just in case he would need a body double, so he may have affection but he is also a complete sociopath too.
@@casedistorted was that what the scene was ab? I swear you can't exactly fake dental records...
A married woman who's husband is missing is worried and trying to search for him desperately because she loves him. It's a pretty basic logical conclusion.
@@itssonotover961 Ideally, yes, but unfortunately, it's not universally true.
"Tell. Me. Again" always gives me the goosebumps.
That and "Show me!"
Mirrors the “say my name” scene in BB
Watching that scene with nice headphones was an experience
@@vamsic8616 fr,even though I was spoiled already I was convinced someone was going to die in that scene just because of how tense it was
Tell me again
It’s a shame lalo wasn’t in breaking bad. Imagine how good of a villain sequence he could’ve had
He’s confirmed dead in breaking bad?
@@loreaver3882 no it’s not. I’m just saying he doesn’t appear at all
@@Samuel2oh9 "the Salamanca lineage dies with you" - Gustavo Fring
@@Merthis_Real lalo could be presumed dead but not actually be who knows
@@loreaver3882 no he's not...remeber when Jesse and Walt kidnaps Saul...he asks " did lalo send u"...so he is alive I guess
There is a physical cartoony aspect to him that I have never seen in tv history or at least in a serious tone, like the way he crawls so fast, jumps down from the ceiling and landing perfectly, another scene where he jumps from a cliff into Jimmys car. Its awesome
Yeah I like watching him jump down on stuff
@@4Joo4 💀
Also his head peeking down and then it goes back up and just a gun comes peeking down... straight out of a cartoon lol
That's why it's a Fun Character.
I thought it was interesting how they focused on his physicality and agility, and portrayed it as a huge strength of Lalo's...Lalo kind of reminded me of a cat a lot of times.
The thing that makes Tuco scary is that he's crazy. The thing that makes Lalo scary is that hes not
Right.And Chigurh was just over the top 'f weird in NCFOM
Lalo is crazy 😂
It's his calmness.
He just evil and its scary
the entire Salamanca clan is uber frightening
Bold move not to include every single scene he's in. "Werner Zieeeeeegler..."
😬 Zieeeegler
Maybe they are saving the best for last.
Tuco is the best for last I think. U know he’s gotta be in last season. Not a lot but
How could they do something so controversial, yet so brave?
Hey you... You know anyone by the name Werrrnerrrr Zieeegler???
The thing about Lalo is that unlike Gus, he's not a super composed polite mask that *then* hides something super cold underneath. Unlike him, his mask of relaxed friendliness and amicability is so blurred with his evil nature that you can never tell how much he's performing, and how much he genuinely is smiling while saying and doing awful acts. We never know *quite* what's going on in his head, and, a true Salamanca, I doubt he truly knows either: and it makes him far more intimidating.
No better way to put it, hon.
Preach.
He's like tuco, but composed.
@@mistybong tucomposed
@@bearsaroundhere i laughed harder then i should at this 🤣
RIP to the best villain Breaking Bad Universe ever had
imo I didn't like his death.
@@nirjhar4803 the only thing that was cool about his death was he died laughing
@@nirjhar4803 it’s logical though. In BB, Saul says “did Ignacio or Lalo send you”? There couldn’t have been an open shootout between Lalo and Gus or Lalo and Mike as all parties involved are very careful.
Lalo was one step ahead of Gus. Got him to the laundry mat. There Gus utilized what only he knew. The gun that he had kept based on his knowledge that Lalo is looking to dig up dirt on him to prove it to the cartel.
@@shahzadirani I'm not saying there needs to be an open shootout in anyway. Idk why people think Lalo couldn't have went out any other way where his death would still be under wraps.
What was forced was how Lalo got into the Laundromat and expected Gus to suspect he was there and only bring 2 of his guys with him, along with Gus actually doing that. It was out of character for both parties to take insane risks like that, not to mention how Gus's goons were absolute dummies with all 5 of them staring at a fan even after Gus turns around. Those men were hired by Gus...
@@nirjhar4803 agreed....it was so simple and rushed I thought
Kim thinking Lalo’s concerns about her knowing his business will be nullified by Spousal Privilege is one of the best examples of how far out of her depth she is with this cartel plot, but she still manages to save both her and Jimmy’s lives by the end of the season. What an impressive woman
Kim is made of sterner stuff, that's for sure.
@@kaelaelliott4237no she isnt. She could not resist the horror Jimmy experienced. Had she been in the shootout, she would have gone scared shitless and thus hesitated at Lalo's inquiries way worse than Jimmy did
@@miguelporras8366that doesn’t really mean she isn’t made of sterner stuff.
@@RandomGuy-zl5sp it means exactly that
@@RandomGuy-zl5sp she folded after the first sight of the real game
Bad choice road is incredibly intense, you know Lalo knows Jimmy is lying, Kim is trying her hardest to convince him otherwise and I can imagine Mike is waiting for Lalo to take one step too far to take the shot, had me on the edge of my seat the whole time
Agreed. Better Call Saul is the best prequel series ever made in my opinion. It really plays into the dread you feel about certain characters. Obviously you know some of them live, and the show takes advantage of that, but with the new characters, it's so incredible to not know what will happen to them in the future. One of the best TV shows running today.
That scène!! Wow!!
Just three people in a room, but hell...
More tension in these fifteen minutes then in many blockbuster combined...
One of thé highlights of this show
At first I was confused why would Jimmy keep lying and not just telling Lalo the truth that he was ambushed, that wasn’t his fault at all. Till we know that Mike told him to
@@marukoamv2424 because his survival could only be explained by who saved him?
So Mike's involvement would be apparent...
Lalo is without a doubt the best Salamanca, I thought he was done in that last episode he took all those assassins out
My cousin Tuco is great too, we grew up together... The Tuco you know is soft compared to Tuco I know 😅
@@homelander5499 La Familia Es Todo
@@homelander5499 Werner Zieeeegler
I knew he would survive cause then who would’ve been the big villain for the final season? Gus, hector, the twins, and all the cartel appears in breaking bad, so they all have to survive. Nacho and lalo are the only ones that don’t do obviously they’ll have to play a crucial part in the end of better call Saul and disappear somehow
@@homelander5499 I am from the future, Gus is plotting against Don Eladio and the Salamanca’s. Also, what will you do to Nacho?
"So you're his wife and you.... LOVE HIM!"
Of course a psycho would say something like this lol
I think Lalo was being nice there. He admires her devotion.
@@josemexicanmexican7602 You're not wrong but you tell that this psychopath has never "loved" someone before as he lacks the same empathy as most
@@RockSmithStudio I think he genuinely loves his tio. People are complicated.
@@josemexicanmexican7602 True though it's a love that most of us would find disturbing
@@josemexicanmexican7602 That's very different from loving somebody who isn't part of your family to begin with (which Lalo is most likely incapable of)
I knew Lalo was evil. But he truly crossed the line when he told Kim to put her shoes on. What an evil monster.
Whats the big idea. He probably didnt want her to get cold feet.
Ikr, let them dogs BARK
Lalo is like every antagonist in BB rolled into one: Tuco's mania. Gus's tactical prowess and powers of deduction. Todd and Uncle Jack's cold bloodedness. And maybe most essentially, after the season five finale, the Twin's fixation on vengeance.
way to crank it to 11 xD
This. This right here.
Hector really drilled the "family is all" thing into them.
@@Xehanort10 At least Walt will die having admitted he did it for HIMSELF.
@@cactusmalone Yeah but still Tuco would never harm his family no matter how pissed and high he was. He was quick to beat that henchman to death but when Hector dropped the plate on purpose and Tuco got real angry, you could see that he wouldn't do anything to him
Best character of season 5, portrayed by an amazing actor. Season 6 is going to be out of this world.
Season 6 is going to be rather Ruthless I say
Saul in outer space confirmed?
what if it turns like the last season of got....
@@mustaquimahmedtanbeer2437 well.. it's been nothing like that for 5 seasons straight.. and they didn't have Vince
@@sanjitdabriwal7020 I hope Kim doesn’t die in s6
I love the subtlety of Lalo turning the 'OPEN' sign to 'CLOSED' around 1:20
Sheesh, thats actually a really neat detail
Lol was it THAT subtle or do you just have eyes?
@@bigdickdolly nobody said it was exceedingly subtle, it just wasn’t super obvious. Therefore, subtle.
damn, never noticed
Bravo, Vince.
Lalo really did represent the best of the Salamanca's, didn't he? I mean, he's still an evil psycho and he still had that trademark Salamanca ruthlessness, but he had so much that the rest of them lacked. Unlike Tuco he knew how to be patient and not go ballistic at the slightest provocation. Unlike the twins, he knew how to be personable and put on the charm to get what he wanted. And unlike Hector he knows how to be flexible and adapt to unforeseen situations on the fly. You really get the feeling that if Lalo lived long enough, he probably would have become the head of the Salamanca family and would have truly elevated them
agree! and he was most definitely the BEST looking one. This guy was something else. The actor did a GREAT job!
Tony Dalton was so right for the part like so many other of the actors. Superb!
It was Hector who talked him out of immediately trying to kill Gus after faking his death. It was the smart play and would have brought them all down if he hadn’t monologued his life away.
Yeah great observation. I agree. I wish he’s in breaking bad now! truly a great foil character to everyone.
@@NyxieMayn I mean in Breaking Bad he doesn’t make a whole lot of appearances but when he does he sure floors it
@@hfar_in_the_sky bro what are u saying lalo never appears in breaking bad, I’m not talking about hector
Tony Dalton's portrayal of Lalo Salamanca is up there with the greatest bad guys of all time. He is a phenomenal actor. Please do a spin off series with him as the lead
Good god that would be amazing. I looked him up to see what else he's been in and unfortunately it's mostly Spanish stuff in the past.
Hope he does more English stuff now.
Facts
@@nacs How is that unfortunate? I can't understand why English-only speakers put such a mental barrier to productions in other languages.
@@leosanchez6166 I had a hard time learning English. I would like to relax and watch a show without feeling like homework.
BCS went to another level when Lalo Salamanca showed up. Dalton just owns every scene he is in. Really unlike any other villain in either BB or BCS.
Lalo is such a easily violent person but at the same time he's laidback
@beentheredonethat you sure?
@@Meleeman69 His stress is focus, he knows his job, what he has to do, so he's chill. Why worry?
Violence makes sense when he's apart of a drug cartel family, to where he probably saw dead bodies when he was 3 to 4 years old and basically grew to view killing as just apart of the job.
@@jish55 *a part**
Textbook psychopath
2:41 I like how he talks about marriage and love like oh yeah that is a thing people do. you *care* about each other, so you're worried. huh, crazy
LMFAO that was so funny to mean 😭 “…so you’re his wife and you… *love* him 😀” like yes lalo that’s how humans work baby ☝️
The charisma Dalton brings to Lalo is remarkable. Terrific character portrayal
Literally every moment of Lalo is a best moment of Lalo
Gus may be the real chicken man but he can't Paca Paca Paca Paca like Lalo.
Oh man so truuuu
Taca, taca, taca
😂😂😂💀
Man I can't wait for season 6.
Offers plate of tacos to Nacho: "You're gonna die." : )
Tony Dalton, the actor who portrays Lalo, is such a great actor. This man is unbelievable in Better Call Saul. He, along with Gus Fring, always kept me on edge whenever they came onscreen. I hope to see more of this guy in other movies, he is brilliant.
He plays a cameo in the Hawkeye series
@@bickyam He’s good in that also…!
Mexicano
3:14 just realized Lalo probably only got the idea to leave the sewer across from the laundromat to go to Saul’s apartment because he saw a cockroach. Damn, the attention to detail when it comes to previous episodes is so good. All time great writing.
Easily the best Salamanca. Lalo was threatening, unpredictable and efficient.
The twins were pretty good also
@@hansolo2121 Truth, he's very likeable despite being a big cartel dude and part of the Salamancas (who are known for having some bad temper problems).
Was? No, is. He’s not dead yet.
@@talltree3941 let's hope he doesn't die now
@@Menga213 well, I don’t recall any mention of Lalo in Breaking Bad so I won’t be surprised if he dies in BCS.
I love all the subtlety. The first shot in the first scene shows the sign saying "closed" on the door, meaning they're open, and when the camera pans back to Lalo who moved, you can see he's changed it to closed.
I love this character. He's intimidating without ever losing his temper. He's like the polar opposite of Tuco. Everything is so freaking subtle with him. It's amazing.
Tuco doesn't lose his temper until you speak for him or call his abuelita a biznatch.
What I like about Lalo is that his charismaric side isn't just an act like Gus. He is a monster but he is also a funny little man.
Just a silly goose
Little man? He’s 6’1
It's strange that people keep calling Lalo "crazy". There doesn't seem to be anything "crazy" about him. That's what makes him especially terrifying. He is full on aware of the horrific acts he commits, he's clever, focused, polite, intelligent, and refined. That's why people are so afraid of him. A "thug" is supposed to unpredictable and horrid (like Tucco) especially a Salamanca according to what we've seen with Don Hector. Lalo is the other half of the coin as a representation of the "old money" version of generations long criminal enterprise. This show and character are fantastic. I can't wait to see how it all ends so I can binge watch again start to finish. Lol.
He's crazy. He's just crazy smart, and not detached from reality. But he's still crazy, unless you think being a smart, self-aware murderer magically doesn't make you "crazy." People would still use that word to describe him, given that he murders as a way of life, as a way of "solving" problems, lol. That word can mean a lot of different things. And he's definitely unpredictable at times, at least to the people around him (even if he knows exactly what he intends on doing ahead of time.) Saul and Kim sitting there in that room with him, demanding to hear the same story over and over again, didn't know if he was going to "snap" and kill them at any moment, or was just going to toy with them for awhile, intimidate them, and let them live. That's unpredictable.
@@DeathBringer769 Interesting, but I never liked the idea of calling a character who does things outside the norm (in this case a murderous gangster). "Crazy" especially in the it's overused terms is often dismissive and inaccurate for the people it's labeled with. Lalo isn't mentally ill, he's fully cognoscente of what he's doing and how it effects the people around him (albeit manipulating, intimidation, calloused indifference to violence) and THAT is what makes him so scary and also dangerous. He is genuinely a person who knows exactly what they're doing and does see any issue with nor care about the impact it has on the world around him. It's apart of "business as usual".
@@khrashingphantom9632 yes, and i believe complete lack of empathy to another life is called "psycopathy", a mental illness.
@@gowford Closer to sociopathy, but I get your meaning. Lol. I'd say he somewhat (terrifyingly) tows that line simply because a mental illness can often (and in most instances is diagnosed) when their ailment impairs their ability to interact with themselves and others. Lalo is closer akin to a person who is a soldier or an interrogator who views the expendability of human life as "part of the job". Now that being said that does opens the flood gates to a WHOLE other analytical deep dive I'm in NO way prepared to get into. Lol. But that's what makes this show and its characters SO amazing and captivating.
@@khrashingphantom9632 Lalo will literally kill for very little reason, and will sacrifice his own man for his own life. He is egotistical and lacks any empathy for human life outside of his own and maybe his immediate family, and even then he is most likely just manipulating those around him to get what he wants. he is 100% a psychopath, not a sociopath.
Lalo needs an epic finale, just like Gus.
I dont even know if he really dies. If i remember correctly, when Walt and Jesse kidnapped Saul in Breaking Bad, Saul was asking if Lalo sent them.
@@ZurHorrorzone they will surely kill him in season six. but saul won't know that what happened to him
i think they will give the job to mike ( my prediction)
@@Nikhilsingh-eb3nk yeah i believe you are right
@@Nikhilsingh-eb3nk if Mike will kill lalo...I think Saul would know
@@prafulyadav2658 yeah Mike would want saul to know its done... unless there's an ulterior motive of wanting saul to be worried.
Its very tough to write an ending for both lalo and nacho tbh
"Tell me again" has gotta be one of the scariest things to hear a Mexican Cartel nutcase say after you've told him a lie, without a shadow of a doubt
No, Jesus loves you would be scarier.
I swear Lalo’s actor was so good that we probably won’t see a spin-off of him but we should
betterfollowlalo
My favorite part of Lalo is when he talks to Nacho right before the Assassination Attempt. He is such a good actor and plays this part of the sympathetic but yet cold blooded calculated sociopath to perfection
Sympathetic my ass dude killed the money transfer guy
@@dg5450 he’s sympathetic just not with strangers only with people he knows
@@tonydaza8504 there is nothing sympathetic about him. He's just charismatic
im amazed at how this show makes me feel bad for every side of the story. lalo is a heartless psychopath, yet when he called nacho "nachito" and welcomed him into his house, only to be immediately betrayed in the worst way possible, i really felt it
charismatic is the better word instead of sympathetic 😃 sorry, second language
7:53 He was about to close the secret entrance but decides to purposefully leave it open so that he could bait them
High IQ move
@@Dotakid99 risky play because it was quite the long tunnel. If the assasins went down when he was down there, they could have shot him.
@@Angel-iq7ou that's why Lalo runs like a rat as fast as he can through it
@@Angel-iq7ou think he was calculative enough to know if they would reach on time
my smart pookie
That entire "tell me the story" scene was INTENSE! And it's not just an amazing Lalo moment, it's also an epic Kim Wexler moment!
Seriously. That would be such a terrifying situation to be in. You have to repeat the same story over and over again knowing that the guy is just waiting for you to get one tiny detail wrong so he has an excuse to kill you.
Lalo's ability to understand the entire situation quickly, with so little information, is godlike.
0:15 for example.
Translated from Spanish, the word "lalo" means "godlike."
@@dashx1103 wut, no
@@they-call-me-martin3837 “Si.”
@dashx1103 no it doesn't lmao
@@AndreasJepsenMusic Si … mucho gusto!
Everything about Lalo makes more sense after he mentioned he barely sleeps 2 or 3 hours a night, if I sleep less than 6 I feel like dying, he can sleep 2 and go about his day smiling, laughing, cooking tacos, dealing drugs and killing people and having a blast the whole time; he's completely and utterly insane.
I love how he mentions saul is like a cochroach, a survivor then when he is fleeing from the assassins he's crawling out exactly the way he described.
Takes one to know one I guess.

Yup. I think he threw in the “born survivor” remark as a legitimate compliment to Saul because it’s a quality that he shares.
It's like how Hans Landa in Inglorious Basterds compares Jews to rats in a complimentary way. The Nazis viewed Jews as vermin, but Landa admires their will to survive. And in the end, he also does incredible things to stay alive.
In the final episode of Season 6/Part 1, doesn't he also [SPOILER] see a cockroach in the sewer and that sparks the idea to circle back to Jimmy and Kim?
The best part about Tony Dalton is how he plays a man that isn't bothered the slightest bit by the fact that he is a ruthless criminal. That makes him quite funny and scary at the same time.
it really is hilarious to think how he could be successfull at anything else if he wanted to but he prolly wanted to be a criminal for the fun and thrill😂
Lalo is like the final boss of Salamanca family
Take your time with that last season and this show will go down as the best lawyer TV show in history.
Isn't it already?
@@sunitavishwakarma3520 Can't have an all-around great show without a good ending. Just look at GoT. But if you meant that it's still the best lawyer show cause there aren't that many of them, then you're right.
what about Suits? I find that annoying too much talking and some cocky characters
@@ramsesjfg7668 If season 6 is as good or better than the last 2 seasons, BCS is on par with Breaking Bad and in the conversation for the greatest TV Show ever.
@@emiogawa86 Suits is full of misinformation and factual inaccuracies. Most of it’s story doesn’t make any sense. If you’re a lawyer and you know how a courtroom and law firm works, you’ll find suits absolutely ridiculous.
My favourite Salamanca, not so narrow-minded as Hector and not so mad as Tuco, but he has a same thoughts about business. He's more like Gus, but when you look at the Gus, you can't imagine that this guy can take the gun and make his problems out by himself, he always need a people like Mike or Victor. He is so orderly man for that kind of job. But Lalo is not. Just like in this last episode, he shows that even without a lot of people he's still very dangerous opponent. This is the real boss of cartel. I love it.
Well Gus did slice open Victor’s throat and suffocated Arturo with a plastic bag.
@@thenewcaesar2668 I'm not saying that Gus can't kill a man, absolutely not. But no one of them don't even know about what Gus gonna do. He just made it unexpectedly.
@@thenewcaesar2668 Well, there’s a difference between slitting a dude’s throat by surprise and killing a group of semi-professional assassins raiding your home, buzzed.
@@thenewcaesar2668 That plastic bag thing was just wow. That honestly was so brutal
I have a question (spoilers for season 6)
I was wondering why were jimmy and kim scared to find Lalo alive at the end of season 6, when howard was there. As far as I remember they lied pretty well and kim even stood up to Lalo then why were they scared if Lalo didn't know they were involved with mike?
All of the Salamancas have this near-superhuman physicality about them that make their characters even more terrifying.😨 Like, how did Lalo get UP INTO the ceiling with no ladder!?
Even Hector, he probably took half a dozen of those pills over a day or 2 and only then did his heart stop
@@claytonbrown6000 Oh yeah that's right!🤔
Probably climbed on top of the vending machine
@@claytonbrown6000 the pills weren't poisoned they were just sugar candies
Hes batman
06:25 I don't want to imagine what Saul felt at that moment just with Lalo's look, but he already knew that he was going to die, that's why he asks him to let go Kim
Definitely the scariest Salamanca. Charismatic and charming but utterly coldblooded and ruthless. You'd never know where you stood with him.
There's never been a villain quite like Lalo. Wish he could have matched wits and crazy with Heisenberg.
Hope they dont kill him, hope they send him to Deep Colombia or Mexico somewhere
@@Menga213 saul does mention lalo and nacho when jessy and Walter kidnap him. He asks if they sent them. Only time lalo and nacho are mentioned I think
@@curtiscurtis5278 But then again, Gus told Hector in Breaking Bad that he was the last Salamanca, so we know two things: Gus thinks Lalo is dead, and Saul thinks Lalo is alive.
@@Dustin314 maybe Gus "sent him to Belize" without Saul knowing, or maybe He was killed between the Season 2-4 BB spantime
Lalo wouldn’t have had the patience for Walt that Gus did. Walt would’ve died prematurely
i find it superhuman that it was able to climb into that hanging ceiling so damn fast.
Gus really only managed to beat Lalo through a mix of chance and knowing the turf on which he was fighting. Lalo might be the only person to have consistently outsmarted him
Lalo was such a brilliant addition to the show. Credit to Tony Dalton and writers to bring in a smart, witty, and charming counter-part on the other side. Kim and Saul are terrified of him because he knows all their tricks because he has mastered them as well.
Kim didn't seem all that terrified to me.
Cant believe his character was put in since breaking bad
@@daffy8995 Honestly, Kim is a fucking badass. I can't believe that Jimmy didn't pick up on that sooner.
@@daffy8995 That's because she's smooth.
@@daffy8995 she was trembling afterwards...
We hate to love this man. We love to hate this man. We can't find a happy medium.
Technically you described only hating him. You said we don’t like loving him and we love hating him. That means we only hate him.
@@ExternusArmy True🤣🤣🤣
@@ExternusArmy hahaha
@@mclovin8435 heyyyy mcloving.
KingOCookies man I love him he's my favorite him and mike
8:01 This shot is cinematic beauty. I love how the camera initially zooms in, creating a sense of urgency whilst bringing Lalo into focus but instead of making a cut (I feel like a cut, by definition, creates more space because it's a visual cue that there's more than one perspective, a larger space for us to place the camera means a larger space in the world) the camera instead immediately reverses track, convincing us that the only way out for Lalo is through this cramped tunnel and there will be no easing up of the claustrophobic tension. Love it.
That's so well described! I didn't realise why it was so intense until you pointed it out. You've got a really good eye for these things
i like it cause it cuts to his @ss 😏
Decent shot, but I guess everything is cinematic beauty for people who haven't seen much good cinema
@@radison6456 your right, but the ones in BB & in BCS have the greatest cinematic shots ever.
1:16 you can notice that in the beginning of the scene, the “open/closed” sign was turned to the other side.
I like that Lalo crawled into the ceiling without a sound in just a few seconds AND flipped the sign to avoid random witnesses even though this plan was improvised.
The scariest thing about lalo is realising there's real people like him
not really
If yes, rarely.
Not really, the ones that are close are smart enough to be white collar criminals that don’t rely as much on violence.
@@MrRyan-wu4jx Yes really. if you live a nice sheltered life youll never meet people like him or any of the salamancas
@@kananstark9839 I like how suddenly if you don’t engage in or tie yourself to illegal criminal activity, you’re sheltered.
He decided he needed to be on the other side of that glass, so he got to the other side of that glass. The perfect way to describe Lalo in two words is, "casually extraordinary."
Underrated comment
Tony Dalton just killed it as Lalo Salamanca. What an amazing portrayal. Top notch acting!
Lalo was my favorite character. He had that way of pressuring people without saying a word. He commands respect and fear. On another note, man Mexicans sure know how to dig tunnels!
was ?
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
1:16 holy shit I didn't notice until just now that he turned the open sign around before he looney tooned his way through the ceiling.
Eagle eye
Looney tooned hahaha made my day
Good eye!
Lalo needs a show of his own.Before the events of Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad.
a prequel to the prequel
They need to show him running the streets in Chihuahua or Michoacán. Dalton can 100 percent nail the authentic Mexican Narco.
Better Call Lalo
The thing with Lalo is that if you don’t upset him and follow his “orders”, he keeps playing the friendly guy mask and actually feels something for people who respect him.
You can see that with Margarethe Ziegler. He could easily have killed her risking much less than what he did.
Lalo had no reason to kill her and would have (possibly) drawn unwanted attention to himself if he had.
Such a brilliant inclusion was Lalo's trigger discipline before lowering the gun into the escape tunnel. That kind of detail really shows how experienced and skilled he is
2:00 - I love how Kim nailed this scene...she is genuinely concerned about Saul's disappearance but at the same time she is afraid of lalo...she is seen with wet eyes and a pounding chest
You mean Rhea
3:58 the way Lalo changed his expression was terrifying. You can really feel the tension rising in this scene.
Honestly I had quit this show for a couple of years because I just didn't think it was that gripping until my co-worker kept going on about this new character, Lalo is really what brought me back. He's so fascinating, and so well played
I was watching Breaking Bad again, around season 2, and when Walter and Jesse kidnap and intimidate Saul to work with them in the dessert at night, Saul says; “OMg, did Lalo sent you”. Not exactly like that, but he did refer to Lalo. Amazing.
he name drops lalo and ignacio (nacho) in that scene
Why is no one talking about this….
@@champ2132 Because every single person who watched Breaking Bad already talked about this years ago when the prequel was announced.
Dude... This is literally the reason why they introduced this character. Stop acting like this is some crazy coincidence.
Good God, every time the music *booms* when Lalo says "Tell me again". Like shifting gears in a car, the scene ramping up heavier and faster and tenser.
Masterpiece.
Lalo as a chat show host. The show could be called "Tell me again".
Such Great Acting Talent. I can see Lalo running the Cartel...He makes Eladio look like a dufus in comparison.
The way he draws out "love" when he's talking to Kim really says a lot about him.
How could you not show the most epic season ending scene with Lalo walking with a thirst for vengeance??? Most chilling scene of the show.
Lalo was everything tuco wanted to be, the lie detector test, the skills, the crazy
6:00
I still cannot remember a single good reason why Mike didn’t take the shot right then and there
Because Lalo is still in the north, so Gus would most likely get blamed.
I think one of the more intimidating things about Lalo is that he always pauses before he speaks in any situation. You can tell he’s thinking of every possible scenario and accessing the information present
Just. Make. Money. Lalo is so cool. Tony Dalton needs to do more American television. He’s amazing
I enjoyed every second of screen time with Lalo. He is one of my favorite villains of all time.
8:07
the food in ur stomach the second u sip coffee
love how in the first clip when fred asks if theyve found his brother in law lalo pauses a little before responding cuz hes legit piecing everything together on the spot such a simple yet great detail
1:24 Lalo is a Xenomorph
Lalo is such a good character, really nails the absolute psychopath thing
He is hilarious. Brilliantly played by the actor. Lalo is frightening, because while acting silly, he is both clever and pure evil.
What an actor, what style, what class....Smooth, effortless and wicked. There should be an Emmy nomination.
Lalo is the best character of the breaking bad universe
So far.
Lalo is probably my new favorite character in the Breaking Bad universe. He's like a murderous, Mexican Sherlock Holmes.
Lalo is like a wild beast. He's fun to watch when he's on the screen, but hope to god that you never face him in real life.
Great Actor and also smart looking. His escape through secret tunnel is hilarious. I must appreciate the Director for selecting very and most suitable Artists for every character. Really amazing. Each and every Actor has acted wonderfully.
well looks like this needs updated after tonight's episode lol
One of the best characters! He's cold blooded one minute and singing the next, love it!!!
I can’t deny Lalo is crush material
1:36 is the moment where Lalo Salamanca turns into Jorge De Guzman
the only mexican who speak like a mexican😉👍😅👌
