Jokes aside, Lyle is probably one of the most morally pure people in the Breaking Bad universe. We don't see a lot of him, but in the moments we do, we see a young, cordial and hardworking member of society just trying to get a start in the world. He doesn't even protest to basically getting a tighter schedule upon Gus informing that he won't be in for the whole week, and instead chooses to express his condolences and worries instead.

i once worked in a fast food kinda like this but we served roasted chicken and working with a guy like Lyle would have been the best thing you can hope for when youre working in this business

[@louisliu5638]

all of us in HS worked in some kind of fast food and usually with the same team we knew at HS. It was fun, our first jobs, and we lived at home in the sixties/seventies. My bros. never regretted and remembered fondly. We never thought we were underpaid, and being from a farm background hard work was expected, and delivered without question. It was only as adults (including my grandfathers' memoirs) that we found some co=workers could be real problem people and asshats and gamers for little gain.

2:37 It's actually a secret reference to a third major player in the drug cartel being lyles gang If he would have called someone that place would have been a war zone in 10 mins

I was honestly scared that Gus would kill Lyle while he was cleaning the fryer out of frustration like he did Victor. He just seemed like a genuinely nice guy lol.

Lyle is Gus’s top man Not Mike, not Victor and certainly not Tyrus 😎 He survived through the events of Breaking Bad and to my relief he wasn’t one of those victims of the 10 men killed and shanked in prison by Jack’s gang as ordered by Waltuh White. I guess even Waltuh feared Lyle 😂

No one talks about it much but I'm sure he's just testing Lyle, I think Gus was going to let him know about what he really does.

[@bananabread162]

The scene where Lyle comes in and warns Gus about the suspicious character is such a powerful moment. Lyle is truly afraid of himself, knowing he could black out and destroy the whole building with his bare hands if they provoke him. Lyle coming to Gus in order to prevent this really defines his character as we see his progression to caring about human life
