@@danieltijerina4451Gus took activated charcoal pills right before the meeting, was as still as possible to prevent the poison spreading through his system, and vomited the poison up rather quickly.
That's why he asked Gus if he should share or keep it. If Gus said to keep it, it would be very suspicious. That's why Eladio wanted him to drink it first.
Don eladio: a man so ruthless and pragmatic that he knew Gus hated him and wanted him dead but so blinded by hubris and greed that he didn’t think Gus would drink poison just to kill him
The best thing of all is how he wanted to go through his mission: He didn't just wait for Don Eladio (and everybody else) to die. He walked out and looked into his eyes to make him know it was him who poisoned him and see him fall into the pool as he met his end.
Of course he's gonna wanna give him that death stare as he dies and snag his necklace, but it was pretty damn obvious what had happened I don't think Eladio needed to be told who poisoned him lmao
I don't think that's the case. I'm mexican and here it's very common for people who can't say "salud" at the moment to just raise their arm in that exactly way, I have seen it all my life in every kind of party or celebration
@@epicfan1598 Rather ironic that Gus didn’t want, need, or even care about Jesse because he was an addict and knew that addicts like him or Tuco can be major liabilities.
In the Spanish speaking community we meme the hell out of this scene, even though the actors are doing a good job, their Spanish is so off kilter we call Don solario “Dowload Audio”
Don Eladio is the epitome of a gangster, he treats everyone with a combination of contempt and derision, every word is a threat, comes with being the most violent and evil person around I suppose
If you don't speak Spanish, you'd miss that the way (the words he chooses) that Gus talks to Don Eladio is with the utmost respect. He doesn't speak to him like an equal, he speaks to him like he's his superior.
Him also telling Jesse to say "Muchos Gracias, Ustedes" instead of just "Gracias" implies he expects Jesse to act the same. I'm still learning Spanish so I didn't catch anything else :(
I think at this point Gus saw this as the only way out. If this didn't work, Gus was never getting a second chance. Revenge now or subjugation forever. And if he did indeed get caught and Eladio killed him for it, what then? He's no longer alive to feel the regret. That's the brilliance of this plan: he understood what was at stake and seemed ready to accept the consequences of whatever happened and for that he was rewarded with a spot of good luck.
Gus is also smart enough to correctly surmise that don eladio would suspect it's tampered with and would want to find out immediately especially in front of all of his people that's why he decided to drink it then and there, he shares it with everyone but they all wait to drink until Gus drinks, if Gus didn't he would have been f.cked but since he did then that was good enough for Don eladio, I don't think it was a risk at all Gus knew what he was doing
Eladios amigo....The patience and steeliness of Gus to execute this 20 year revenge plan is unparalleled. It's no surprise that Gus was able to become a fried chicken tycoon with this mentality.
Don Eladio's death was brutal. When he was drowning, he couldn't even move enough to get out of the water. Usually when you're forced underwater, you can fight back and survive. Eladio already had no hope of survival, drowning just made his death more agonizing.
they originally did it because literally no alcohol brand gave them permission to use their trademarks (so they had to make one up) because they didn’t want to be associated with drugs/the cartel lol
Not clever in the slightest. There are two easy and obvious ways to reverse poisoning. Prebuilt tolerance and regurgitation. He accounted for neither of them. Also, the fact that Gus had suddenly forgiven him for murdering his partner after all this time should have put his brain in danger mode.
@@Planetyyyydid you watch Better Call Saul? If not, here are some spoilers but go watch it, it's awesome. Don Eladio states in EP 6x9 that he knows Gus hates him. He wasn't unaware, he just underestimated how deep it went and how far he would go. Gus raked in so much money that he ultimately thought it was worth the risk. Which turned out to be wrong.
Anyone else notice at 1:21 that there is too many footstep sounds compared to how many people are walking? The dolly sound effects do not match up with what is happening on screen.
I really like how Mike took Jessie under his wing. You can tell Mike really liked Jessie after awhile and kind of became a bit of a father figure to him.
Gus's plan here is brilliant, but indirectly it wouldn't have been possible without Walt, because Gus got to know Jesse through Walt. Gus would have never tried this with Gale instead of Jesse.
Also a reasonably moral decision. On the one hand, Gus could guarantee revenge. On the other, he needs a cook, AND could save a life. He didn't pick revenge.

Yea after this they became best friends and made a lot of money together! Him Gus and Lalo!

It's funny how the title of the video is "Gus Gives Eladio A Lethal Gift" because in german the word "Gift" means poison

As he explained to Ignacio: He's on top, and that means he's never at peace.
You can see how much Gus constrains his emotion. Eladio is careful before opening the box and before drinking. Subtle and intense

That very slight shift of the eyes at 4:28 when Don Eladio conveys his suspicion to Gus is impeccable acting.
It reminds me of the scene in "The Princess Bride" where Wesley has his battle of wits with Vizzini.
Bravo Vince
Very slight? Lol
He had the same bravado in Scarface as Montana’s partner.
so was it implied in this scene that Don Eladio was waiting for Gus to take the first drink so that he would know that it was not poison?
Yes. And it was poison
Yes
In theory, yes. However, that also goes under the assumption that someone like Gus isn't crazy enough to drink it any way.
I heard that during this part 3:24 Steven Bauer cut himself from how sharp the top of that cork was.

3:41 he meant that
What a respectful and gentle boss, I hope they had a fruitful collaboration for many years after.
"If you spill it ill cut of your hand, now hurry up". Oh lord.
That Eladio is played by Steven Bauer who played Manny in Scarface, it’s just poetic.
this is the best episode of a TV series i have ever watched.
It's crazy how Manny survived being shot by Tony Montana only to have a big fun pool party with Gustavo Fring.

He could have made the gift into a bomb too seeing how Eladio couldn't resist once he sees a gift wrapper. The man loved being showed with gifts!
