- What’s happening in this Breaking Bad clip?
A flashback to 1989 in Mexico shows Gus and his close friend, Max (James Martinez), meeting with Hector, Bolsa (Javier Grajeda), and their boss, Don Eladio (Steven Bauer). Gus and Max pitch their meth scheme to Eladio in hopes of going into business with the cartel. Max, who is a biochemist and chemical engineer, produces the meth, and the pair sell it out of their restaurant. Although Eladio likes the idea, he feels Gus has disrespected him by giving meth "samples" to Eladio's henchmen in order to manipulate him into a meeting. Moreover, Eladio wonders what Gus' purpose is in the business if Max is the cook of the high-grade meth. Before Gus can explain, Hector shoots Max through the head and forces Gus to lie down and look his dead partner in the eyes. Eladio tells Gus that the only reason Gus is alive and Max is not is because Eladio knows who Gus really is.

What’s the TV show Breaking Bad about?
Walter White (Bryan Cranston from Godzilla and Total Recall), a chemistry teacher, is diagnosed with lung cancer. He decides to make and sell methamphetamine to repay his medical debts and secure his family’s future.
Season 4 of Breaking Bad:
Gus (Giancarlo Esposito from The Mandalorian and Maze Runner) tightens security at the lab after Gale's (David Costabile) death. Gus and Mike (Jonathan Banks) work to drive a wedge between Walter and Jesse (Aaron Paul), seeking to coerce Jesse to be their solitary cook by capturing Walter while at the same time eliminating the Mexican cartel. Skyler (Anna Gunn) accepts Walter's meth cooking, and works with Saul (Bob Odenkirk from Better Call Saul and Nobody) to launder his earnings. Hank (Dean Norris), while recovering, tracks Gale's death to Gus and the drug trade. Gus releases Walter and plans to kill Hank. Walter tricks Jesse into turning against Gus, and convinces Hector Salamanca (Mark Margolis) to detonate a pipe bomb in the same room as Gus, killing them both.

Gus was the smartest guy they ever met, but he was too stupid to see Hector made up his mind 10 minutes ago.
Ok, Hank
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH yeah 😂😂😂😂😂😂 But I got the feeling that one came a little more out of No where
Hank? Is that you undercover?
hahahaha 🤣😂 lmao you win the internet
Lol
Don Eladio: Rocking the same outfit since 1989.
He had diffrent clothes in any other scene he was in in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul
Not bad. Born in ‘89 🙌🏼

You gonna tell him to change?
@@Sneezy11 naah.. He is dead now
Nacho varga really did the lord’s work by putting hector on a wheelchair
But doesn’t better call Saul take place before breaking bad? So how is Hector not in the wheelchair still
@@freshgambles2352 this scene is before both, a flashback
@@freshgambles2352 this is a flashback before BCS
And yet Gus was angry at Nacho for it.
@@Animedumptruck cuz that was gus's revenge not nacho's.
The two chickens on the Los Pollos Hermanos logo weren't Fring's uncles, they were him and Max.
Damn, so Max was that close... does it say it in an episode?
@@ChevyboyCaprice_ I don't think so, it's a fan theory, but the subtext is there and there isn't a more reasonable explanation. Gus's whole motivation for his criminal career was to avenge the death of Max. That sounds like way more than just a friend.
@@imcallingjapan2178 or it can be that its just a logo
@@pupsonianthegreat9951 Watch the Los Pollos Hermanos commercial. A voiceover actor playing Gus describes the two uncles story, its the kind of nice little story that many large companies have about how they were a little startup company at the beginning run by nice people, often exaggerated or sentimentalized or just fictional full stop. The two chickens on the logo are meant to be the two uncles, the Chicken Brothers. But since we know the truth, its likely there were no uncles and the two chickens are really meant to be a tribute to Max, showing him alongside Gus, IMO. In fact, if Gus came from Chile under the Pinochet regime and was known to Don Eladio like he said, then he may have made up everything and his name might even not be Gustavo Fring. He wanted to reinvent himself as a nice businessman and entrepreneur and therefor not be recognised for his past in Chile, so he used the voice actor instead of doing the commercial VO himself, made the corporate name and brand outwardly about his uncles and not him, and probably took a new name as well.
@@imcallingjapan2178 in this very scene, Eladio calls them “the chicken brothers”. I’d say that’s proof enough.
I know we were all rooting for Walt at the end of season 4, but it's honestly a little upsetting that Hector was technically the one who got the last laugh against Gus, not the other way around.
It wasnt a laugh it was a last desesparate attempt
@KhanTutorialsBD it was hector was laughing in anger when he blow up gus (ringing the bell) it means he is laughing constantly so thats his last laugh literally.
@KhanTutorialsBD Hector deserved the last laugh. Gus was ruthless and would let people die for less, like how he was okay to let Nacho die after using him for his own gain. Gus's hatred for Hector was a blind rage-fueled vendetta for being the one to pull the trigger and killing his loved one, which Eladio okay'ed. It was Gus's demise. For someone who eschews emotional weakness and the propensity for pettiness, his mockery and denigration of Hector was far too drawn out for the cold calculated, objective character Gus held himself as. Walt exploited this weakness in the end.
Tbh he already got revenge on him by wiping out his entire family and empire
Gus ended up being petty afterwords and kept going back to him to torture the guy even more
What happens after scenes like this.. did Gus call an Uber? Do they sit awkwardly waiting for him to stop crying and then offer to get Gus ice cream? I mean all we see is Gus’s lifetime motivations or revenge.
They all went to eat zesty chicken at Los Pollos Hermanos
probably they all left leaving gus crying there and then Eladio's goons came in and brought away Gus and the corpse
They both got up and prepared for the next scene ofcourse🎥🎬
Well, eventually, Gus bought evrryone a drink.
@@theJimmer66 Ha! Touché
It bothers me how they both talked and acted in the most respectful and careful way and it still wasn't enough.
Eladio and Bolsa's ego lead them to their demise.
Because they cooked meth on his turf remember cartel didn’t like selling meth till years later
Because infantile and petulant man-children in high positions of power never last very long. Pablo Escobar is a good example. He could not keep his temper tantrums under control because his father was not around to beat the estrogen out of him and tragically destroyed his own empire.
@@tactknightgaming2066 I think that calling dismembering your own men with a chainsaw , putting bombs in airplains and killing hundreds of police officers a temper tantrums is one of the biggest understatement I've ever seen , the guy was an animal and straight up evil
Actions speak louder than words when loyalty and power is everything in the drug scene
Gus a few years later:
"How the turn tables"
20 years is not few years
Hector a few moments later: Ding Ding Ding
turn tables lmafo
>turn tables
kek
Gotta say, I never expected an office reference in a breaking bad clip
I can imagine an alternate reality where Max and Gus choose not to cook meth and remain in New Mexico where they meet Walter White, who is struggling with providing for his family after leaving Grey Matter. The three folks immediately like and respect each other (Walt and Max bond over their love of chemistry) and with Gus’s business skills create a new pharmaceutical company that blows Grey Matter off the map. Maybe they hire a young Jimmy McGill to become their sales rep. In Heisenberg’s words, “everybody wins.”
Even Jesse gets a legit job under them after Walter turns him away from a life of meth cooking.
@@schachmaster Probably as part of an outreach progam they create for at-risk youth.
Damn, right in the feels
Gus: "This kitchen we've built for you is exactly to your liking, is it not?"
Walt: "I mean, it is....but.."
Gus: "There is something in your mind. I emplore you to speak."
Walt: "Well, it's the chicken."
Max: "Mr. White...Him and I have had this formula for years. We've perfected it, and so have this kitchen. What is it that you wish more for this?"
Walt: "Well...there's no doubt you've built this magnificent kitchen..."
Gus: "All top-grade. Not one single commodity in this room was bought cheap."
Walt: "Yes, but....What we have here, and the chicken that we have....I mean..."
Max: "Hold on...Are you saying our chicken doesn't taste good?"
Jesse: "YOUR CHICKEN TASTES GOOD, YO."
Gus and Max: ".........."
Jesse: ".....it's good. But what Mr. White is saying is....why can't the chicken be more than just the shit? Like, like, why can't it be more like.....the BITCH? Ya know what I'm sayin'?"
Gus: "Elaborate."
White: "What I really mean is, I've perfected a new formula that can make your chicken the perfect food that it deserves to be cooked at in this...magnificent...kitchen."
Gus: "...and is it safe to assume you believe you have cooked the 'perfect' chicken?"
White: "Put it simply...yes. If I have to put a non-scientific, largely subjective mathematical number to it, my chicken here is 99.6% pure."
Max: "Hold on, Mr. White..... We've had this formula down to its bone from its skin ever since we built this place before your idea of this kitchen was ever conceived. We've had plenty of people who have testified that this is the best chicken they've ever tasted. What makes you think you can convince us to just change our chicken like that?"
Walt: "I'm not looking for 'plenty of people', I'm thinking we go 'armies of people'".
Gus: "Ambitious. What exactly do you want?"
Walt: "You've built me this wonderful kitchen.... Right now, ....I'm building an EMPIRE."
@@gravityfel7896 Absolutely excellent comment💀 I could watch a whole season of Max, Gus and Walter like this!
In the end, you almost felt bad for Hector...almost. But then you remember how evil he and all of his nephews were. From Hector shooting Max in cold blood and than taunting Gus over Max's dead body; the cousins killing a dozen or so migrants (which included a very pregnant young woman) because some kid merely recognized them; the cousins threatening to murder Mike's daughter in law and young granddaughter under Hector's orders; Tuco beating his "friend" to death for merely speaking out of turn; Lalo and Hector torturing and killing a hotel clerk and his innocent wife before burning the hotel down because the clerk "insulted" Hector; Lalo killing an innocent Travelocity employee because he refused to share a fellow customers information...
I mean, Gus was a very bad guy, but I have no problem with how he would later torture Hector after systematically destroying his aweful, amoral family. They all deserved it and i hope in that fictitious world, they're all burning in hell. Just can't wait to see how Lalo goes out...and yes, I'm pretty sure Lalo IS dead by BB but Saul simply doesn't know that.
calm down buddy, jesus
@@krishnaravishankar7554 what?
W
@@krishnaravishankar7554 I'm with Jim on this one.
When did Lalo and Hector burned a Hotel? I really don't remember that
This is the moment where Hermanos became Hermano
Hector and Eladio were kind enough to teach Gus a valuable lesson about his new line of work. Gus, very grateful, returned the favor by taking care of Hector’s nephews when he was unable to and visiting him in the nursing home, as well as giving Eladio an amazing brand of tequila.
What a wholesome relationship!
Healthy respect and appreciation among colleagues is paramount to a successful and prosperous business relationship!
They really thought they could do that to Gus and he would just forget about it and make them money with no problem. Wow.
Cause it’s his boyfriend boy...
They probably didn't know Max wasn't just a friend.
They should have listened to Lalo… he knew Guses true intentions
They probably thought he was intimidated by that and would stay loyal.
@@Rodytur10 they knew, they even joke about it minutes before
this is the exact moment hector Salamanca spares gus' life.
it was actually Don Eladio who made the decision. He is the boss, Hector takes orders from him
@@Yano88 that's true, but I also like how Hector says "I AM the cartel" in an episode of Better Call Saul
@@Yano88 r/whoooosh
Actually, this is the exact moment when Hector, Don Eladio and numerous others signed their death warrants!
as opposed to.......?
Such a motivational moment for Gus
Yeah, really gave a goal to his life :)
@@vasvas8914 lmao
And Hector still got the last laugh.
@@Onmysheet no because gus did what he intended and died knowing that he killed them all
@@Prashant-pm7iz Gus was expecting to outlive all Salamanca's and run the entire meth operation. But WW was standing in his way.
A pretty inaccurate title. It was Eladio that made the call to spare Gus not Hector. In fact it was strongly suggested that Hector was the only one in favor of killing Gus as well but was voted/ordered against it by Eladio and Bolsa .
Exactly. Don Eladio made the decision. He is the boss, Hector takes orders from him
@@Yano88 DA BOSS CAN SOCK MEEE
Is that pfp from Tenjou Tenge?
@@vasvas8914 I'll watch my next words if I were you.
So did Gus used to work for Pinochet?
This scene provides context for the Better Call Saul scene where Gus responds to Hector's accusations by calmly saying they don't merit a response. He realized that loudly protesting his innocence/loyalty wouldn't appease Eladio and only make him more suspicious. Better to play it cool and give the impression that such accusations are too absurd to be taken seriously.
Well said, didn’t even think of that.
These writers are next level , they literally never miss a chance to weave in little details such as that.
@@reem9317 these 2 shows fit so well together, not alot of plotholes. i know game developpers that brag about working on a game for 8 years but still fail to properly connect the dots. ahum, rockstar, ahum.
@@deathrager2404 honest to God, there might never be a drama on the level of Breaking Bad/BCS ever again. Talk about peak television, this is it.
@@deathrager2404that
blackwater thing was a straight up retcon.
Giancarlo is able to convey fear in this scene and sociopathy in other scenes using just his eyes. Amazing acting.
It just shows Gus is NOT a psychopath but someone who is severely damaged
@@lgxtransport That’s a great observation. I think you may be right.
And after this Gus Fring learned his place,took Salamanca 's advice and went on to open a successful fried chicken franchise. He was forever thankful to Hector Salamanca and Don Eladio for this moment.
End of series
And then all the Don's died of completely natural causes
Is that the good ending or the bad ending? I don’t even know at this point. Salamancas live, Walter probably ends up dying to them. Other way, Gus takes revenge after taking out the cartel and then Walt takes him out and also takes himself out
@@Trabsol Gus only hired Walt because he thought Walt was his ticket to get out of under the Salmanaca thumb. Walt made him more than a distributor but a producer. So if Gus had no plan for revenge, Walt would never had his gone to so much success in the drug business.
@@jayczzzya Tuco was killed long before Walt met Gus.
@@EndOfSmallSanctuary97 good point. I forgot.
This is exactly how it would have played out if Gus was Don Helario, Jesse was Gus, and if Walt was Max. Gus saw Himself and Max in Walt and Jesse, they were in the exact same position as he was except this time Gus was in the position of power.
That's actually quite an insight as to what happend in the lab. Never thoughtbofbit that way. Thx :)
Except when Gus was broken he became a knife. Where as when Jesse was broken, he shattered into a million useless pieces.
I think Gus and Max were lovers unlike Walt and Jesse.
it did not play out that way though. gus knew victor was not going to cook like walt and jesse. i also don't believe gus would have ever exposed gale to that kind of violence had he survived in the series. i hated the scenes walt decided to give gale a hard time during the cooks. gale seemed autistic and got enough joy from chemistry. he did not need much else.
Gus was about to spare Walt and send him to Europe soon (as mention by Lydia in S5) so yeah both of em probably would've just been fine lol if Walt and Jesse didn't go running around creating chaos also Gus should've had better communication skills and everything could've been avoided
"I know who you are."
Hopefully, the BCS writers will give us a glimpse of Fring's time as a mercenary for Pinochet.
Was it ever confirmed that Gus was a mercenary?
@@MidgeCat nah
What if he was a businessman?
As awesome as that would be, I also like the mystery around that part of Gus's life
They are exploring his backstory in Far Cry 6.
I think Don Eladio is such an underrated villain. Every time he's on screen he's so charismatic but scary at the same time
As the fictional timeline unfolds, this event would later prove to be the 1 biggest mistake in the entire life of Hector Salamanca - getting his whole bloodline slain as he was forced to do nothing but sit in a wheelchair and receive regular updates on which of his loved ones got murdered. Every Salamanca would be dead by the final episode of BrBa, and Gus orchestrated pretty much all of it.
damn
Incidentally, if he had not killed Max or had killed both Max and Gus, then only Hector would die when Nacho sabotages his medication and there would be no one to revive him.
now i get it. I am the 69th like*:)
@@NotAGoodUsername360 Tuco would die too.
He orchestrated it! Gus!
Both Gus the Cartel and Walter went down by their big egos. They think they always have the upper hand and their egos dont allow them to think that the guys they hurt would want revenge no matter what
What gus did wrong?
@@jaeger9654 you’re kidding right?!
@@Xplora213 i mean cartel they kill guss bff. Gus? What he do?
@@jaeger9654 I think Eladio thinks they should both die but Gus is a big shot. So they don’t take the risk but gives Gus a lesson in the process as they bring him in.
Of course, this ends badly for Eladio and Hector.
@@Xplora213 thats eladio egos. But gus ?
He doesnt kill walter because jesse.
1:53 - the birth of the chicken man
The funniest thing i saw today😂😂😂
Walt fell and cried the same way when Hank died
and also both take revenge.
In an alternate universe, tony montana prevents this from happening.
If HBO picked up breaking bad' I bet we woulda had Al Pacino
I'll bet the local pool guy got a lot of business there!
Underrated comment.
"Jose, I think I have mice in my filter again... No jefe it's brains again..."
Darkest moment in the whole series for me. We had never seen Gus in such pain before, and it’s so much that just happens all at one
This is what turned Gus into a stone-cold killer. He didn't care what happened to anyone, as long as he got his revenge on Eladio, and got to psychologically torture Hector for the rest of his days.
The meta thing is that even if Walt knew this was how Gus ended up being so ruthless, it wouldn't have struck any sympathy.
@@nahor88 i dont even see how gus is villainous. gus was a cat in a corner. and we know how that plays out....
@@deathrager2404 Gus was definitely a villain cause he did some bad stuff and was a drug kingpin so.
This is the moment Walt became Heisenberg.
underrated comment
@@sato88888888 yeah
This was the moment Tuco was born
🦲
This is the moment Gus become Los Pollos Hermanos
1:24 Gus reaction is jst 🔥💥🌪⚡️🤌
The fact that they never actually revealed in the series who Gus ACTUALLY is, kills me more than Max leaking his thoughts into the pool.
It's strongly suggested that he was working under Pinochet in Chile and had powerful connections.
The mystery is part of the fun though. Not everything needs to be explained.
@@EndOfSmallSanctuary97 exactly. It's better that we don't know.
It is suggested that Gus was a high ranking General in Pinochet's military ("big Generalissimo). He clearly has the discipline and smarts to be one
dude imagine if they made a spin off with gus. that would be sick
One of the first times you see gus genuinely lose his calm
1:38 When your mates start sharing your most embarrassing and darkest secrets to a 10/10 just for her to giggle
When your friend says "Now that we are older, I actually did steal ur diamonds in Minecraft 6 years ago."
This scene, was brilliantly done... To the acting, the shade, the tension building
“you’re the smartest man i ever met, yet you’re too stupid to see, he made up his mind ten minutes ago”
-Mineral, probably
one thing about breaking bad that took me long to realize, is the amazingly subtle parallelism that gus has with walter. literally at 2:39 is ozymandias all over (but before!!!)
Exactly!! I really love when heroes and villains have that interesting antithesis from each other, and Walt and Gus are one of the best examples of this.
0:36 that's really not a facial expression you want to see from a cartel boss
Hello verified person
@@MaxerV19 hi
This is the reason why Gus mentally tortures Hector so much.
The moment the bullet hit Max's head, it represents his unaliving and inability to live and the death of his living body. The detail on this show is amazing 😮
I think what we are failing to understand, is that this is the moment where Max's living soul and his living body part ways, leaving both irrevocably separated
The symbolism of this show is impeccable. Vravo Bince!
Bro. He's dead.
Gus was a monster, but Hector, Eladio and Bolsa made that monster. And when that monster came back to destroy them, they deserved every moment of it.
gus might have become a monster even if the boyfriend wasn't killed. he tortured an animal during childhood.
"You creating a golem!" 😂🇮🇱
@@lapacesiaconvoiHe probably would’ve had less reason to display his more monstrous side if things went smoothly. Also, maybe he was better when Max was around.
@@lapacesiaconvoi where does that come from ?
@@picaglace3248 Better Call Saul S 4 E 6
RIP Mark. He was brilliant as Hector. 🙏😢
Love the title. Makes Hector sound like a decent human. I guess we can apply Obi Wan’s “From a certain point of view” quote to this. Yeah, Hector may have blown your boyfriends brains out and made you stare into his lifeless eyes, but hey, at least he spared your life. What a nice guy
Boyfriend?
@@oklol7799 Max and Gus were more than partners in crime
The minute Gus opened his mouth Max knew they were fucked. There's no "talking down" any of these people. Once they're resolved in their convictions they're like rocks. It's why Saul was so terrified of Lalo; he couldn't be reasoned with
Well, Saul's wife did
Don eldadio took a half measure
When he should have gone all the way.
I realize the symbolism of hector tormenting gus by wanting him to look at max. Years later he torments hector by asking him to look at gus. Brilliant writing
Imagine if Eladio had just shown an ounce of mercy here and not killed Max. Imagine what could've been.
This scene is easily one of my favorites in breaking bad
underrated
"I will save him to the last.... Before he dies, he will know... I BURIED EVERY ONE OF YOU."
Bigggg talk
I bet Hector regretted this when Gus visited his stroked out ass years later just to say "they are all dead Hector"
2:39 Exactly just like Mr. White’s face after Jack shoots Hank in the head. Damn.
I think everyone doesn’t understand this scene enough. The reason why Gus respects Walt’s and Jesse partnership is because his partnership ended this way. Gus’s problem was he didn’t protect his partner with his life the same way Walt and Jesse would have. Gus Is a Businessman who thinks everything by himself, leaving that a liability to not have another person giving him their insight. Walt and Jesse they executed their “If You kill him you kill me” act so well it added fear into gus, hence why he kills victor. Gus is so cold blooded he didn’t see the people around him are cold blooded also.
The first time I watched this scene, it comepletely caught me off guard. Mainly because I wasnt expecting to see Gus in such a vulnerable, and emotional state like this. From watching BB and Better Call Saul, it pretty much reveals that Max was truly the best thing that ever happened to Gus. This is even more apparent when Gus is telling Hector the Allegorical story about his childhood, and the fruit tree he helped nurture. Max's violent death sent Gus down a grim path of truly no return. Regardless of what anyone says, Gus is a tragic character because of this. He never be close to anyone again, because of the nature of the game, and because he's so set on revenge. What a character.
Killing that young man was the worst mistake in those men lives.
This was the moment Don Eladio made Gus listen to him.
Yup made Gus his little biznitch.
Facts.
1:13 watching Hector walking in the background is so chilling now that you know what that asshole was about to do
And don eladio also nods his head towards hector
That’s a bit scary!
3:07 I know it's sad.......... He's bleeding all over the pool. Now they're gonna have to clean the pool damn it.
Funny how this whole show was like a morality tale where everyone's downfall was a character flaw. Except for the minor characters of course like Max, who get killed completely random.
A classic trait of tragedies. One character flaw that eventually ends up killing the character. For Gus it was revenge and for Walt it was pride.
Drew Sharp shouldn't have had the fatal flaw of underage driving
TBF We don't know much about Max. Could be a real scum bag.
@@saintroddy he's in the category of minor characters dying randomly
Max didn’t die randomly. He was a drug manufacturer/dealer who tried to do business with the cartel. He was by no means innocent and deserved what he got
"Hector Salamanca spare Gus's life" yes that's surely one way of describing this scene
1:30 "tis but a scratch"
don Eladio: A scratch, theirs a bullet through your head
Gus loved Max in every way
I never realized before that Gus is basically Walt version 1. Sure it's not a direct correlation since from that comparison Gus would've been both businessman and cook, but Max also pulled through much better than Jesse so yeah there's natural variance there. But in terms of the planning and the (at least according to the cartel) arrogance and caring for the second guy, it was. Imagine if Gus had killed Jesse. And my memory might be hazy, but maybe that's also why he didn't want to kill either of them. For business, sure, but maybe Gus saw the similarity and didn't want to be like the cartel when he was in their position of power. It also lends more weight to Walt doing what he did at the end of the series, because it closed the cycle and prevented it from playing out again.
I could just be overthinking, but if they are coincidences, they line up quite well.
Holy shit this is well thought out.
yes its true, walter white is the new gus. outsmarting everyone in the business andmerking them all. lol crazy. the cycle never ends
I think this is the most humane reaction I’ve ever seen Gus in.
Idk why most rankings have Todd or Tuco as the most evil characters, but to me Hector was always the most evil. He knew what je was getting into and enjoys it. As Nacho said, he's a twisted fuck and tbh I really wanted to see Gus kill Hector and get away with it. He's tied with uncle Jack for most evil character imo
I agree, dude was a bastard he deserved all the torment he got
Gus was as nervous as Walt was in the beginning and then u see how cold his becomes later on fearless just like Walt
i said it earlier but walter = gus.
@@deathrager2404 Another reason why Gus is my favorite villain in the show
So brutal! After this revelation, I've grown so much for Gustav! Yes, he still remains the most despicable villain to this day, the actor and writers did an amazing job!
No way he's the most despicable. Jack, Todd, Hector and Tuco were all way worse than Gus ever was.

@@whatdidyoutoldme9395 That really wasn’t that bad
@@whatdidyoutoldme9395 Cutting one guy's neck because he failed to protect one of your most valuable assets doesn't compare to characters like Todd, who shoot kids like it's a normal tuesday or Tuco, who beat his guy to death after he said "remember who you're working for."
@@whatdidyoutoldme9395 So?
It’s more or less confirmed later on in BCS that Max was Gus’s lover which brings a whole new depth to this scene, not only did his best Friend die in Cold blood but also his soulmate…It makes all of Gus’s plots and acts of revenge that much more satisfying to watch.
It’s not confirmed. The only dialogue we get that even hints at a romance is Hector calling them the butt brothers. Hector doesn’t even know them lol, he said it out of spite
@@reality1009 Bruh, just accept that Gus is gay. Is that so hard?
@@venomvevenom But he’s not gay lol. In breaking bad he says that he has children. A family. Stop projecting your gay fantasies onto Gus, boi
@@reality1009 He literally never said he had children. And I'm not gay, I'm just ok with characters being gay.
@@venomvevenom Ahh there it is! Proof that you don’t know what you’re actually talking about, Gus literally says that he has children. Go watch the scene where Walt goes over to Gus’s house for dinner, AGAIN. You’re spreading your fantasies in public like this? How embarrassing. You’re lucky I’m here to shake you out of your fugue state lol
From watching Breaking Bad to Better Call Saul I look at this scene so much differently. To think that this was Gus Lover and not just his best friend changes the outlook on his revenge. This truly broke him and even the way they all ganged up on him. His revenge makes way more sense.
It never states in BCS that gus is ghey maybe in his personal life tho
@@Amin-pn8vj
I think it's pretty obvious from the bar scene in S6 as well as how he acted here. He rushed straight over to try and kill Hector, he also held his revenge so close for years on end. You wouldn't do that for just a friend or business partner. Also, the boyfriend line from Lalo, even though it was a joke, may have been a hint. We also never see Gus have any interest women. I think him being gay kind of enhances the story.
@@Laiser you're reaching
@SLugZ _pls to a certain degree, art is meant to me interpreted, but I'm of the belief that a good writer(which Vince Gilligan definitely is) wouldn't leave that open to interpretation. Since Gus put his friend through university, we have to infer that Gus is significantly older than his partner. We can also infer that Gus knew him from a very young age(since his partner says Gus saved him from slums of poverty and made him the man he is today)
I don't think there's any source material to support a romantic relationship between the two. It's not uncommon from people of similar backgrounds to form a lasting, platonic relationship
@@jordang8730 Peter Gould personally confirmed it himself on a podcast in 2022.
Giancarlo Esposito... The acting and his monologue in 0:39 - 0:56 deserves Oscar alone.... 👍🏻 What a flawless combination of voice, words, eyes and face in one scene!
Except his spanish sounds like he's speaking italian lol
@@Daiin0 I agree.... 😅👌🏻
@@Daiin0 i mean i don't know Spanish so it doesn't sound off to me lol
@@Daiin0 I mean the actor grew up in Italy.
Forget the Oscar, give this man his own series
I like how the title is “Hector Salamanca spare Gus’s life” and not “Hector Salamanca blows dude’s brains out into a pool”
Yeah that title is an interesting way of putting it
Even though the Spanish of each actor is way off, the great acting makes up for that. Don Eladio is supposed to be Mexican, and his Spanish is great but still sounds a little like someone from South America. Gus's partner is supposed to be Chilean, but sounds more Caribbean. Gus is supposed to be Chilean but has a very heavy american accent, and Hector Spanish is better, but still has some american accent. Nevertheless it's a great scene, greatly acted and suspenseful.
I agree, especially Gus and Hector's Spanish is bad, but that's OK with me because their acting is awesome.
I've heard plenty of South Americans speak like these four. You're just nitpicking.
@@RenegadeShepTheSpacer I've lived in México my entire life, I know what I'm talking about
What's the alternative?
@@RenegadeShepTheSpacer I'm from Chile, trust me, Record Grooves is right, if you ask any Mexican or Southamerican they will tell you the same.
I lived in Mexico for over a year and not once did I ever see a green sky. Wtf is this
It's the filter they put on movies to make the viewer feel like it's taking place in another country
They use that lighting to trigger a certain response from the audience. It's also present in the flashback scene where the cousins kill Tortuga
It’s called a “joke” y’all
Murica'
@@ProfessionalBabyEater how come no one's laughing.
Little did Hector know,by killing Gus partner and sparing him,he ended his entire bloodline by that moment
killing gus in 1989 could have been a risk for eladio and the cartel.
I just realised the tequila was the same as the one Gus poisoned to get his revenge. Glasses too
Fun fact: This guy's full name is Max Arciniega. Which is the actual name of the actor who plays Krazy-8
I just found out on BCS how krazy 8 got his nickname and it's hilarious
Gus acting is phenomenal here
I have to say the actor who plays hector Salamanca is amazing. Not even latino at all and he can speak very well im impressed
Lol, he's not? Impressive indeed.
Dude, his Spanish is fucking terrible. It's crazy how many times I've read this from people whose level of Spanish is limited to "Hola" and "Gracias".
The sheer amount of utter rage Gus felt at that moment was surreal. There's no gun wound that would be capable of stopping this man from cracking Hector's skull wide open had Don Eladio's goon not held him off. And it didn't.
Eladio shouldn't have expected subservience from a man stolen off of the only thing that actually mattered to him.
This approach of killing someone’s friend or loved one might’ve worked with some ordinary person, but Gus was a former soldier or something under Pinochet. They should’ve seen it coming.
Also, that guy who held him back was a younger Bolsa.
Both sides are evil, but I feel for Gustavo more than anyone else. I've had friends die from suicide and car accidents, not from watching them die in front of me like here. Hector deserved everything he got following this. This may sound odd, but I compare Hector to Regina George from "Mean Girls". Both characters had huge egos and thought they were above everyone else, but they never once thought their bad deeds would eventually catch up to them...
Its clear that both here and in BCS, Max was the best thing that ever happened to Gus. His death sent him down the path of no return. It takes a talented writer to portray darker grey morality, and in ways that portrays one side as darker and more evil than the current nuanced side. Takes an even more talented writer to humanize a monster, and make it come off as realistic.
He was his boyfriend too :(😢
after having rewatched breaking bad, I don't see Gus as evil or whatever, he was just a businessman in the criminal world
Watching this makes Gus’s revenge so satisfying
Fun fact: Nacho handled his first interview with Eladio much better that Gus.
Nacho didn't make any dubious method to take eladio's attention for a meeting.
With the carry of Lalo, the money and the ferrari
Damn Juan Bolsa is very strong to take down a very adrenaline filled Gus.
Ok, to be fair, at this moment if Gus had taken Hectors advise and stuck with chicken, he would have had a long a prosperous future in a successful legitimate business.
nah
but he did
It is unfortunate, as soon as Don Eladio says “what do I need for you” both Max and Gus knew one of them were dead.
he was pointing his finger one by one at them. as the audience, we couldnt see whom he pointed at first lol.
gus and max put their product in eladio's territory without permission.
Gus & Max were actually competeting for the job but had no idea. Gus simply came across as more likely to heel, clever & efficient.
There needs to be a spin off of Fring, from his mysterious life in Chile to being a drug king pin working with the Mexican Cartels.
I would actually love that but i'm 99% sure Giancarlo won't be able to olay the role since it's a prequel and all.
Plus some people want Gus' character to remain mysterious after all that was one of the biggest traits of him,being private
In this show, nothing good ever happens at the swimming pool.
Hector deserved what he got in the end
Hector got the last laugh. The irony of it for Gus is cruel.
To explode and kill Gus too, which is what he wanted?
@@bigdapramirez6157 He was dying anyway dude and most of his family was already dead. What more did he have to live for? Answer that.
@@jaychild78 He had no family left.
@@jaychild78 ik but personally I think Gus deserved revenge on Hector, not the other way around
Don Eladio didn't take a look at Max even, when the boy spoke to him. In Don Eladio's eyes, the boy was nobody and didn't deserve any attention.
Its funny looking at these meetings in the show with hindsight you can always say "literally everyone in this meeting ends up dead." Which honestly the fate of everyone who gets invovled in the drug buissness .
There is a reason why you dont see many grizzled old drug dealers like Hector who survived for so long because his family already establsihed themselves and nobody had the balls to mess with them until they met Walter whites family. In the end your going to get death more than money
He spared Gus' life? Such a good person is Don Eladio.
Gus çok delikanlı bi adam mış orada kendi canını bile riske atıp tepki veriyor dostuna o derece sadık
Maalesef sevgilisi
Much more than a friend. 😉
@@klassiko433 HAAYIRRR
See, it’s Hector’s face that makes this scene. As Gus turns to look at him for the first time after he kills Max. The dead eyes, the open mouth… It’s so awful, yet so brilliant🤦🏻♂️
This makes me really wish walter never got in the way
Zip it fringe
if that happened jesse will be dead
Gus really put that man through college to cook that’s dedication.
so is this why gus always wanted hector to look at him. to tell him his family's downfall was his doing
Eladio: You are not in Chile anymore
Gus: yeah I know bro, this is Mexico, that's why its fucking yellow everywhere
This man will hold you accountable for something that you couldn’t possibly have known was unacceptable, and treat it like it’s common sense, and tell you that it’s too late..
Lol and then turn around and hire that guy, make him powerful then try to
party with him after a war? Eladio had it coming for a while.
Hector deserved everything Gus did to him because of this moment
This scene is fantastic. To see Gus, who until now has been has been this unbeatable force of nature, in such a vulnerable state is such a good contrast. And it only feels better when we see him get his revenge 20 yrs later.
Lalo:
@@bloothechronosapien4288 Even with Lalo he wasn't this Vunerable. He had good secuirty around him as well
