Below are the main spoilers for anyone not fully involved. You better call Saulso be careful if you haven’t seen it yet!
You better call SaulThe sixth and final season of was not originally written with a six-week hiatus in mind, which didn’t seem so obvious after “Plan and Execute”. surprisingly it took Howard Hamlin out of the equation . However, the urgency emanating from the mid-season premiere “Point and Shoot” made it clear that this episode was intended to be a quicker sequel, with the creative team surprisingly (and rather brutally) killing the antagonist in the most thrilling of all. drama, Lolo Salamanca.
Okay, so technically it was the absolute villain of the franchise, Gustavo Fring, who unleashed a hail of bullets on Lalo, turning the tables on the table just when the mustachioed brute thought he had pushed Fring into an inevitable corner. . However, the only angles Lalo will know from now on are those surrounding his and Howard’s corpses in their mass grave beneath Fring’s developing methamphetamine lab. This detail, however dark and ominous, adds a new shade of context to each breaking Bad scene that takes place inside the underground laboratory.
Tony Dalton himself was also concerned about how things were going for his character. Asked by Variety about the devastating episode, Dalton was asked about the rarity of seeing his corpse on screen (so to speak) and reflected on his breaking Bad refers to his response, saying:
Very rare. They put the episode in Tribeca and just seeing Howard and I dead in the pit, I thought, ‘Shit, man. So are all Breaking Bad in there? Are they stepping on my grave? It’s crazy. I wouldn’t even have planned such a thing.
It is not necessarily a revisionist turning point to imagine Walt and Jesse doing their homework of cooking methamphetamines on the decaying corpses of Fring and Saul’s bitter rivals, considering that neither. breaking Bad The characters once knew Lalo or Howard (as far as we know). That said, the events of this episode are sure to put Fring in a new light for anyone who watches again. breaking Bad again.
“Point and Shoot” produced a Gus Fring that audiences (and the other characters) weren’t used to seeing: one who seemed to be overwhelmed and undermined, and one they feared would be his last day on earth. If it weren’t for Lalo’s exorbitant self-esteem and his camera, the villain probably wouldn’t have kept Fring alive long enough for the crime boss to gain access to his secret weapon. But now that he’s gone through what is arguably one of his three best nightmare scenarios, Fring is better prepared to become the steadfast tyrant who takes Walt and Jesse under his wing than him.
Dalton said he and Giancarlo Esposito discussed how the end result of their one-on-one would affect Fring’s rise to power in the future. In his words:
I talked to Giancarlo about it, the whole part where Gus is worried about being caught by Lalo: you don’t see any uncertainty in ‘Breaking Bad’. You can see it a little bit here, this weakness and the Achilles heel. After Lalo’s death, this cements Gus into the person he becomes in “Breaking Bad”.
After taking down a huge grizzly bear, other animals (even the potentially dangerous ones named Walter White) don’t seem so intimidating. And since no one else in this universe was like Lalo, Fring would rest more or less peacefully until half of his face was ripped off years later.
As much as it sucks to see Lalo leave, and I can’t imagine a more exciting way for that to happen than him and Howard being together forever, at least. Tony Dalton’s film and television career he is not as dead as his character. I can’t wait to see what kind of high-profile roles he’ll get next, although I’m sorry I wasn’t able to share the screen with him. still a guest star Carol Burnett .
With Post 19 Pat Healy is expected to appear in the next flashforwards like the recast taxi driver, You better call Saul airs Monday nights on AMC at 9:00 PM ET. As I look forward to new episodes, please join me in celebrating superstar Rhea Seehorn who FINALLY won a Emmy nomination this year for her infinitely stellar work as Kim Wexler, after years of unfairly ignored .
