Lalo always showed to be a very friendly man, but its psychological wisdom to know: If a friendly man turns angry, they turn into the worst monsters éver! It was easy to piss of Tuco, and he'd go at you like a beast The Twins were silent assasins; no words, just retribution. Lalo was the best, and worst of them: Much smarter then his cousins, equally skilled in violence, but Lalo had patience. If Lalo were to run out of patience, he would unleash a fírestorm on his enemies, that would even make Tuco, Marco and Leonel shiver in fear!

Seeing Lalo made the power that the Salamancas had, make sense. The twins, Tuco, Hector were all hardcore cartel no doubt, but none had the brains to be running an enormous drug empire. In a franchise with multiple of the best TV villains of all-time, Lalo's presence still stands out.

[@felekmastelerek]

Wouldn't really agree with that, Hector was portrayed as an old-school gangbanger with simple, solid, hardcore rules that went along with the lifestyle. It is shown that he had an influence in passing on those rules to the cousins (and probably others, therefore he is the foundation), whom I consider to be very intelligent in the criminal world. While they weren't as cunning in their ways of communicating with people from the outside, nor did they possess the charm of their cousin, they were able to achieve something on the verge of a superpower in the underground; an ability to act and communicate without saying a word. A perfect synchronization. A partner that reacts in the exact same manner on the spot, no need to discuss anything. No matter the time spent with other inmates in the can, only they know what's going on inside their head. One look is enough for them. The only time we saw the cousins a tad bit desynchronized was when one of them laid on the ground after having been crushed by Hank's car, while the other had a hard time in evaluating whether it was necessary to help his brother or eliminate Hank first. Even then he did not utter a word, only looked at Leonel in search of an answer. 'Terminallo.' End of debate. Fkn scary shit.

[@joshsmith2021]

That’s a lot of reading lol dunno how you couldn’t agree tho. I mean we get to see Lalos stash/warehouse full of exotic cars I mean he got bailed out for 7 million cash he is easily the most successful Salamanca prob experienced too these might just be KZbin rumors but I think I seen somewhere he had military training

Theory (or not) but I’m willing to bet lalo is one of the soul reasons why eladios cartel is so powerful and why the Salamanca name has such a strong reputation in that world. He’s a psychopath but he’s also a genius. With his head for numbers, his fluidity between Spanish and English, his social skills, his planning, his skills with a gun and his physicality. Eladios love for him is also very telling. Such a great character

[@FavioRiveros]

I think that was exactly the point of the character`s creation, what you`re saying makes a lot of sense, i mean! i was shocked when he just throws those Ferri`s keys to don Eladio!

[@teddyjackson1902]

It’s “sole” and no. He’s a component for sure, but Hector is clearly the core and you’re assuming there weren’t an entire generation of Salamanca’s in the game with Hector that are no longer with us at this point.

[@jakebeck4132]

He's definitely not a psychopath, he just had the life he had to adapt to, but did it with intelligence and wit.

[@teddyjackson1902]

@@jakebeck4132 I’d argue that he’s certainly a psychopath, high functioning with a sense of family and loyalty. A person who can become so singularly focused and kill people without flinching or a second thought are psychopathic. He even had a live body double on standby living on his property. He saw people in three categories imo; family, tools or obstacles. Killing the kid, Howard and his body-double cinched what he was for me even if he had an internal code that governed him.

[@jakebeck4132]

@teddyjackson1902 a psychopath just hurts to hurt, they injure animals and innocent people just for their need to cause pain. Lalo is a Mexican cartel member, he's had to live like this because of who he is, he literally has been brought up knowing no different. Tuco was a sociopath, but none of them are psychopaths.

[@hfar_in_the_sky]

1:43 I love this scene for so many reasons but for one big one in particular. When Hector came to talk with Gus, he did it with all his goons and the subtlety and grace of a sledgehammer to the face. Which is fitting, because Hector was a powerful but cranky old man who was try to assert his dominance over Gus. But that was incredibly foolish, because as Gus pointed out making such a scene draws unwanted attention to the Cartel as a whole. But Lalo? He comes in and he plays the "game" just as well as Gus. To an outside observer this is just a hardworking manager and a appreciative customer having a conversation. Lalo plays to the role and comes to Gus' level but he does so in a way that puts Gus slightly on the back foot. And that makes Lalo seem even more dangerous than Hector because he understands and has mastered subtlety. While Hector came in with the subtlety and skill of a thug with a sledgehammer, Lalo comes at it with skill, speed, and precision like a knife fighter

[@hopoff9968]

That's interesting, he does have a knack for subtlety. So much so that I'm a bit confused, was Lalo trying to recruit Gus in a coup against Don Eladio? That's what he meant by getting along too well right?

[@hfar_in_the_sky]

@@hopoff9968 My read is that he was prodding Gus to see what his reaction would be and tease out his motivation. If Gus showed even a little bit of interest in even temporarily burying the hatchet with the Salamancas to take down Eladio a peg or two, then Gus’ motivator is power. If Gus shows no interest and is “fine with the way things are,” ie he’s fine with continuing to feud with the Salamancas, then his motivation is revenge. Either way Lalo will know how to proceed with Gus going forward

Hector was the force to be reckoned with because at the end of the day he was the one who was truly in charge of the Salamanca family, even when he was crippled by the stroke.

[@mouradmhm3244]

The unsettling reality is that individuals like Lalo exist in real life-charming, always smiling, cracking jokes, and seemingly friendly, yet lacking a moral compass. They would do anything for their own benefit, though extreme actions like killing might be rare. Nonetheless, they can be ruthlessly opportunistic. In real life, they often become politicians, lawyers, marketers, and religious leaders.

I’ve seen someone like Lalo before. Can’t say for certain if they were psychopath or not but they sure did act like one. They were very personable and friendly, always smiling, and they ended up charming a lot of those they interacted with. But something was just off. It felt so performative and hollow, like there’s nothing behind their eyes. Then you’d see them act not so friendly. They would partake in behavior that would bring harm to themselves and others. You’d realize they only act pleasant and friendly to manipulate people. And that they knew how to read you much better than you knew how to read them, and they would use that knowledge to their every advantage. They’re relationships with others were just as hollow as they are. They did whatever they want, simply because they could. And it’s fucking terrifying to watch in action. That being said I adore Lalo as a character. As scary as people like him are they are just as fascinating. Tony Dalton nailed this character completely.

Smuggling Mexicans to US, the twins would have killed and burnt the entire truck. But lalo was considerate to give them other chance by returning their money. Lalo still haunts me sometimes 😢

[@vladimirrashkovsky6274]

11:16 this is the moment Lalo became Joker

[@nilesh382000]

11:11 Lalo's laugh 😅😂

[@bluemoppy1]

its the same scene as from the joker film basically.

[@bluemoppy1]

its even a joker laugh.

[@karannagra5144]

Best character in the series

[@ChrisDawson-p3g]

The way Gustavo is intimidated speaks for itself. Even the fact he kills him he know he was extremely lucky to have done so. Perfect villain: Lalo.

[@Whiteboykun]

10:30 to be fair, throwing in an extra $75 for the cartel is like a reasonably well-off person tipping someone at the store one penny

[@pedrosura]

What an awesome actor. Great character.

[@Sprite_525]

18:40 this part still makes me giggle once in a while 😆

[@pete7062]

Im aways craving that chicken after hearing folks describe how good it is

[@L0REN0R2Z0RR0]

Somehow the Salamancas are all psychopaths, but he definitely takes the cake.

[@jSONrEEE]

I can't tell if Lalo was amused or offended when Jimmy said he saw the family resemblance with him and Tuco xD

[@dogenYT]

19:43 when the killer close the hatch

[@SigottyWS]

Saul: “7 ….. thousand 8- 9 hundred eh 25 dollars 🤔 yeah mhm yea 😅”(thinking this is a large amount) Lalo:”bet”

[@SigottyWS]

Saul: did I say 7 thousand I meant 7 million Lalo: sure (pulls out wallet again)

When he killed Howard and the 2 worlds came together was crazy AF and sad. Werner Zeigler ZEEEEgler
