Mike Warns Nacho About the Pill Swap Plan | Better Call Saul (Michael Mando, Jonathan Banks)

[@Watcherofprovidence]

Mike saw a kid about to make a VERY risky gamble to save his father which is what earned Nacho some sympathy and advice. Even if Mike wanted to talk him out of it he knew Nacho wouldn’t let anything happen to his dad. The same Mike won’t let won’t let anything happen to his granddaughter and daughter in law.

[@harrison6082]

Also, it reminds me of Mike's experience with his own son. Mike didn't want his son to be involved in corruption or any criminal behavior. And Nacho, doesn't want his dad to be involved in any criminal behavior.

Ironically listening to Mike is what made Nacho get caught by Gus. It was Mike's idea to switch the pills back and that's why Nacho picked them up from the floor. That was the thing that made Gus very suspicious of him.

[@rockerfish223]

Yeah, but a lot more people would have been a lot better off if Mike had just shut up and killed Tuco Salamanca like he was hired to do. Sure, Nacho probably still ends up dead, but then Hector never threatens Mike’s family to get Tuco’s sentence reduced, Mike never goes to war with Hector, Hector never tries to take Manny Varga’s business to replace his crippled distribution network, Nacho never tampers with Hector’s heart pills, Lalo never steps in to take Hector’s place, Jimmy McGill never makes his mark defending Lalo, Lalo never kills Howard, Kim sticks around and “Saul Goodman” never consumes Jimmy’s life.

[@Losojostristes]

Mike was given three (I include Jimmy) chances to tell these younger guys to not be crooked and do the right thing but even after losing his son and feeling remorseful that he made him debase himself right before his death, he stuck to his ways. He dug himself deep and showed he didn't learn from his son to try to be a good man. Sure he's not fully responsible for Jimmy, Nacho, or Jesse but it couldn't have been more obvious that these guys needed help like his son did and not to be given criminal advice or have their sins further enabled.

In theory, there is one other thing he could have done. Gone to the cops himself. He's got enough heavy material to get the cops to take him seriously enough to get his dad witness protection, and I doubt that killing the dad is even going to register on the Cartel's radar compared to going after Nacho. There's a good chance he wouldn't have survived (I mean, Lalo probably would have been called up for something like this), but his dad probably would have been fine.

[@nicholasbarber8531]

It is possible, but Hector would have to get his hands on his dad while under police protection for a threat like that to be credible, which is darn tricky considering that they can't kill him in the process, or they lose their leverage. And if he worried about the police dragging their feet, Nacho could ask Mike to keep him safe in the meantime, who he knows full well is a sucker for a request like that. If Hector knew it was going to happen he could make a move, but if he knew that Nacho was out to get him he probably would have watched his pills better. @@raulbetancourt5795

Yup technically Nachos death is on Mikes hands because he couldn’t let his grudge against Hector go.

[@Agent-cz9rj]

Nacho was in too deep to walk away from this. He had no other option but to switch Hectors meds with paracetamol or ibuprofen or sugar pills whichever ones he switched them for.

[@BlvxkByrd]

Right before his death, Nacho confirms they were just sugar pills. That was smart because any other actual medication could've brought on symptoms/ side effects that doctors could have traced back to those pills as well as possibly still be circulating in his body after death to be found in an autopsy. Sugar pills will just make it appear he simply stopped taking them or wasn't taking them as often as he should have which doesn't really raise any red flags.

[@BlvxkByrd]

@@ArchilochusOfParos Hector wouldn't have had issues skipping a pill. He needed to switch the whole bottle

@zekeiwa5837 No, it wasn't. At no point do any of them say it was ibuprofen and we have Nacho saying they were placebos. Go away.

[@Sashazur]

Mike said at some point that Hector was taking nitroglycerin, which is prescribed for chest pain caused by narrowed cardiac blood vessels (angina). It’s typically taken as needed to alleviate an angina attack, which would be why Hector had it with him all the time. But in reality it’s in little glass bottles since it easily loses potency. And also in reality it won’t prevent or help with a stroke; severe angina is more likely to lead to a heart attack than a stroke.

[@JS-fi7fl]

As wise as it sounds, it was Mike's advice which screwed Nacho. It's when Nacho switched the pills back when Gus saw him and turned his into his slave and ultimately got him killed. It might have been better if he never switched them back, even if they found out it was the pills, they might not have known it was him.

[@awesome1ru]

The advice wasn't bad. It's that he should've done it without anyone seeing him, that was the problem.

[@souptikchakraborty.yt.2024]

Nah, You're SO wrong here. If Nacho DIDN'T switch the pills back, once the doctors would find out that Hector's bloodstream didn't have nitro pills for a week or so, they'd inquire about it to Hector's family, and they'd give the doctors the bottle, and once the doctors find out its sugar powder inside the capsules, it'd only be a matter of time before Hector's family investigates and Nacho has has to confess...which would lead to a more painful, torturous and brutal d*ath for Nacho AND his dad... What Nacho did, had he taken Mike's full advice and done it carefully so that he doesn't get caught... He would've been k*lled during the co*aine ceal qith gus...but his dad would've lived Either ways, he was dy*ng in every possible scenario

The one bad pill idea MIGHT work but it is not as sure. Depending on the severity of his case and how fast he reacts. It could work but it is iffy.

Not only got humiliated by the rejection, but Hector also indirectly created his biggest enemy which led to his downfall. Nacho, his employee.

[@shinyagumon7015]

Nacho is a smart guy, but he really needed someone like Mike to remind him to think his plans through. Like switching the pills is a solid plan, but Nacho needed to be reminded that the plan doesn't just end when Hector is dead he needed to think about how to cover his tracks. Same when he was planning on killing Tuco, his plan just stopped at the kill, not thinking about the consequences of having him killed.

[@drygnfyre]

It's like all those time traveling plots about "if someone goes back in time and kills Hitler, they prevent WWII and save the world!" Except, no. Now you've got Himmler taking control, or the Soviets have a much easier time taking over Europe. Or any other number of things that could potentially be even worse. Taking out one bad guy without understanding how that bad guy got into power in the first place is a fatal mistake. That's exactly the problem Nacho faced. He didn't even know at the time that Lalo existed, and as we saw, Lalo was much worse than Hector.

Hector probably had a “Danny”running the ice cream shop for him, as Saul Goodman would put it, ready to take the fall. Hector’s name also probably wasn’t on the shop’s paperwork anyway because of his criminal record. For all their mistakes, the Salamancas generally seem to be good at avoiding paper trails.

To those that didn’t watch Better Call Saul: the “thing” he needs from Nacho is to take his pants down (except his underwear) and sit on a pie next to Pryce for a double pie sitting competition.

[@warknight4745]

It would be a lot easier if he hired the two best hitmen west of the Mississippi.

Why dont only put one pill inside hector’s bottle? Then they dont even need to switch them back😂

[@SarahlovesSerge]

People seem to be saying the fake pills aren't poison, they're just empty pills (sugar or sg) so he needs to take a lot of non pills for his health to deteriorate, not just the one

[@Gorre022]

How come when Nacho later sees that Mike is working for Gus, he doesn’t suspect that Mike might’ve told Gus about the pill swap?

[@Max-zi5wx]

Hey that’s a good point, never thought about that

[@slayer1561]

Mike literally foreshadowed Nachos death 😔

[@cantaloupegodling352]

Pryce may be dumb but he consistently made the smartest choice of anyone in the series calling and trusting Mike.

what was the one more thing he needed

[@winterhaydn]

I forget. Anyone?

@@winterhaydn Was it the baseball cards that Nacho had stolen from Pryce's apartment?

Late reply but it was to find out where they buried the body of that Samaritan that Hector killed (the civilian who found and helped Hector's truck driver from Mike's previous ambush).

I don't remember this scene, anyone knows the episode?

[@hampton8474]

I think it’s “ Expenses”

[@originalbanana3211]

free the guys

[@benclaffey4804]

I really thought pryce was going to get whacked in the show because of this.

[@Saadking47]

Mike was his demise. Should not switch pills after wards
