    Lalo Salamance is the greatest character to come from a throwaway line in television history. He completely altered the trajectory of Better Call Saul and pushed the tempo until his end. Tony Dalton was amazing. The greatest mystery of the Better Call Saul universe to me is how Michael McKean, Mark Margolis, Tony Dalton, Jonathan Banks, and Michael Mando were all denied supporting actor Emmys and Bob Odenkirk and Rhea Seahorn miss out on lead actor and actress Emmys. That's just crazy.

    10:53 Adding to point 11, we see Jimmy deciding to pursue elder law in season 1, since his charisma works quite well with elders, and he genuinely wants to help them. After getting disbarred in season 3, he tries to convince Irene to settle the Sandpiper deal, so he can get his cut of the money, but he does so by pulling a scheme that results in her peers starting to hate her. When he realizes that was wrong, he pulls another scheme with the help of Erin to make himself look bad, resulting in the Sandpiper residents trusting Irene again, but distrusting Jimmy. After this, elder law was completely off the table for him, leading him to dive into the realm of criminal law again, this time as Saul Goodman

    • @KaiserUnique
      @KaiserUnique Рік тому +9

      I think it’s less that Lalo wasn’t unpredictable and more that he didn’t have the element of surprise. Lalo was truly the greatest threat to Gus’s plan and it took all of his resources to beat him and get the upper hand. Lalo was smart, hard to predict, and knew a lot more about Gus and his plans than any other Salamanca. But Gus knowing this about Lalo was extremely paranoid about him and was on the top of his game. All this to say that Lalo was not easy to predict and was extremely adaptable. If Hector hadn’t accidentally tipped Gus off that Lalo was alive he wouldn’t had even known to still be on the look out for him. Walt comparatively was not as smart (a chemistry genius but not necessarily a great strategist yet), barely knew anything about the cartel, the Salamancas or Gus’s plans for them. Gus lost because his obsession with getting revenge on the Salamancas was used against him. And cuz Walt had no prior history that would make Gus think of him as that kind of threat. Therefore the element of surprise.

      Gus destroyed his whole family & crew though, & put it on full display for Hector. & Hector had to just endure it, being fully aware but not being able to do anything about it. Also, I believe Hector stopped looking at Gus again because of the upper hand Gus gained on Lalo. The last time Hector looked at Gus (aside from Face-Off finale), he looked Gus straight in the eyes & shook his hand to “convince” Gus that Lalo was indeed burned dead at the beginning of season 6. Hector making that gesture, was an indicator to Gus that he was bluffing about Lalo’s death. So, I believe Hector refuses to make the mistake of giving Gus that upper hand again
