Funny to think that this menace Tuco is way less destructive in the grand scheme of things compared to the characters who look practically harmless like Walter, Gus, Hector and Jimmy.
Don't forget Tuco beat his own lackey down, just for saying something like "...and don't you forget it" to Walter. Tuco was definitely the most volatile of the Salamancas
That’s why he’s the perfect villain for Walter and Jesse to beat. He’s unstable and terrifying, however it also makes him the easiest to trick and manipulate. Not EASY to manipulate mind you, just EASIER in comparison to guys like Gus, Lalo, or Hector etc. Tuco could keep the low levels in line through fear no problem, but he’s a grunt in comparison to the rest of the antagonists.
Just like when Jesse repeats back, “Right. Nertia..” in s5E8 when Jesse asks why they never got a new RV, and Walt suggests it was likely because of their inertia.
Hector is practically unrecognizable here compared to all of his appearances that followed suit. Not only with looks but with how he acts. Less wrathful and more senile.
Tuco was hardly taking any care of him, just feeding him. He may have been the family, but Salamancas and not just Tuco were pretty neglecting of hector after his stroke. Gus for his own reasons took better care of him.
This whole episode felt so tense, imagine being locked up far in the desert with a maniac drug dealer, and also Hector added to the creepiness of that episode.
True but was sorry after he realized he could get the names of Mike’s 9 guys in prison from Lydia. I can’t see Tuco being sorry for anyone he’s killed.
@@eddicarlo5362 Mike sorta deserved it; he gets a lot of defenders for being a great character, and he's a fav of mine as well, but he blatantly underestimated Walt, and was blind to the fact that only he was in "untouchable" standing with Gus. He received orders himself to KILL Walt.
Mike had to go he went to far back the stuff he did was just terrible. I don’t see any way of him making it out of the drug game just like Walter and Gus the only one that was fully free was Jesse
2:50 *At this point, you can see the fly on Walter's head that would later appear in season 3 and serve as the cause of Walt's emotional discomfort. Bravo, Vince!*
Yeah, his emotional breakdown at 3:20 always gave me goosebumps. Even though Tuco was pretty much just an unredeemable lunatic, he still loved those he considered family.
I think it's ironic that Jesse gets ridiculed over this when we see him getting the most game through the whole series more than any other character lol
Let me tell you a couple of three things: forget tuco, forget gustavo, forget Mike who goes out in new Mexico and never comes back...Walter White has no respect for this thing. He's never been in the can, not really!
He already iced Jesse after telling him to shut up Everything is on edge and worlds are colliding, yet Tuco still is down to earth enough to tax a try hard
Lalo probably would have killed Walt and Jesse, but I still like to think they would have found a way out of it. Walt was highly unpredictable when backed into a corner, so I think he has a fair shot against Lalo.
@@Soulful_Sorrow I 100% believe Walter would have died going against Lalo at this point 😂 But post-Gus assassination Heisenberg has a pretty good chance
Theres an episode of Star Trek DS9, siege of planet ar-588 I think, where you get to see Raymond Cruz intense like this way back in the 90s. His lines in Training Day are legendary too.
0:48 I think it was at this moment that Walt decided Tuco had to die. Before, I think his priority was simply getting rid of Tuco since he was unpredictable. But as soon as Tuco threatened his family, it became personal.
'Most' thats a low bar. A normal random person outside would have more empathy than them and we dont need to have the 'most' category to beat that. Just reminding people who are blind to danger..
These couple episodes of Walt and Jesse being prisoners of Tuco were the most tense and claustrophobic moments I felt during the show. It really felt like they had no escape, and the moment they hatched any plan it would result in a raging maniac beating them to death or worse.
It wouldn't be anywhere near as frightening as dealing with Tuco here... Lalo would play them with deceiving talk, keeping them on edge, and string them out strategically. Tuco simply scares the holy bejeebers out of everyone.
@@easygoing2479that’s the thing tho. Lalo is unpredictable and you don’t know what his next move is. You already knew that Tuco was a hothead from the get go and knew exactly what kind of man he is
@@roddydykes7053Nope, you’re wrong. How the rules of this cinematic universe works is the events shown ON Screen was absolutely everything that occurred.
Tuco is arguably the deepest character in the entire series. Cold, calculating and ruthless on the surface. He’s one step ahead of everyone else but plays ignorant. If I had to describe him in one word it would be “profound”. He’s the Mexican equivalent of artistic genius Fred Durst.
1:13 walter was probably thinking about that henchman tuco beat to death so he knew it could happen to him any second too. also 3:41 is a pretty sad line, i think people with stimulant psychosis or severe detachment from abusing could maybe feel like that. as fierce as tuco was at the end of the day he was just an aggresive but sentimental fiend
Fun honest to god fact, if you watch this video in two times speed, by clicking the three dots at the top of the screen, then go to playback speed and click the bottom option two times speed. The clip from the hit tv show breaking bad becomes a lot more funnier the tension just evaporates and turns tuco into a very goofy man.
Its interesting that tuco hates people he deems as idiots, cowards or disrespectful He despised those 2 twins in bcs for being disrespectful idiots, he killed no doze for speaking out of line and he treated jesse like garbage for being what he deemed as an idiot and a big mouth. When it came to people like Walt, Nacho and Saul.. he actually respected and listened to them. Maybe its got to do with the latter 3's ability to appeal to Tuco's ego and address him with respect. But i think its also got to do with the fact that they are smart and competent people... He also seems to hate cowards and people who show fear... like a predator seeing weakness in its' prey
@@stormtraitor6545 Yes, this is a true story. I personally think ending season 1 on Tuco's death would've been better than on No-Doze's because he is more major character than No-Doze. Also "Grilled" is a way better episode in general than "A No-Rough-Stuff-Type Deal".
My favorite aspect about Tuco is that he’s hands down the most honest character in the entire franchise. He 100% respected Walt more when he learned he has a family, and I bet it changed his perspective on him Not a whole lot, since he’s yk. Tuco. But still.
0:40 Even Tuco was smarter than Walter at this moment. Walter kept moaning about getting into crime for his family while destroying it one by one in the process.
In an interview he said the character tuco was physically and mentally tiring for him to portray. He’s a very passive and chill guy irl and the yelling and screaming followed with headaches afterwards.
Funny to think that this menace Tuco is way less destructive in the grand scheme of things compared to the characters who look practically harmless like Walter, Gus, Hector and Jimmy.
They literally had to nerf hector into a wheelchair so he didn’t fking kill everybody
@@brunoelguapo Prime Hector is simply Lalo
Don't forget Tuco beat his own lackey down, just for saying something like "...and don't you forget it" to Walter. Tuco was definitely the most volatile of the Salamancas
What about Walt jr.? Haven't you seen how many breakfasts he massacred?
That’s why he’s the perfect villain for Walter and Jesse to beat. He’s unstable and terrifying, however it also makes him the easiest to trick and manipulate. Not EASY to manipulate mind you, just EASIER in comparison to guys like Gus, Lalo, or Hector etc. Tuco could keep the low levels in line through fear no problem, but he’s a grunt in comparison to the rest of the antagonists.
It's hilarious how Tuco repeats "unusual" like Walk just broke out the thesaurus
Just like when Jesse repeats back, “Right. Nertia..” in s5E8 when Jesse asks why they never got a new RV, and Walt suggests it was likely because of their inertia.
It's a tactic. You repeat people's words to them. It's not you who are being unreasonable, you are merely doing what they suggested.
It does seem like tuco respects Walt to an extent. When Jesse speaks tuco sees him as worthless and tells him to shut up
@@AsrielDremurr1 Because Walt waltzed into his place of business and nearly blew the whole place up just to make a point, of course he respects that.
This is the moment Walter became Walk
Hector is practically unrecognizable here compared to all of his appearances that followed suit. Not only with looks but with how he acts. Less wrathful and more senile.
pretty sure tuco feeds him drugs 😂
Hector wasn't senile, he just was unable to speak or move properly at all
Tuco was hardly taking any care of him, just feeding him. He may have been the family, but Salamancas and not just Tuco were pretty neglecting of hector after his stroke. Gus for his own reasons took better care of him.
I think he just looks more disheveled because of the beard
@@Sciolisteh expect for Lalo ….
This whole episode felt so tense, imagine being locked up far in the desert with a maniac drug dealer, and also Hector added to the creepiness of that episode.
Nah actually Hector made it less scary
@@NightmareChronicles77 when i first watched it, he made it all more weird imo.
but after finishing watching bb and bcs i gotta agree with you
I found some "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" vibes on that episode and I can relate with your comment
Hector lowkey added some humor in it 😆
@@allemagneproducer Imagine if Hector never got a stroke? And was there able-bodied? 🥶
Walter: Hated how unpredictable and dangerous Tuco was.

@@nahor88 Of course, Mike had it coming. He only got a free pass because he’s “cool”.
Mike had to go he went to far back the stuff he did was just terrible. I don’t see any way of him making it out of the drug game just like Walter and Gus the only one that was fully free was Jesse
immediatly recalled Lalo saying "he's got a temper huh?"
3:17
“I hadn’t noticed”
That was scary
Can't blame Tuco, Lalo had pretty reaction when Nacho ratted.
Jesse “ I’ll waste him too yo”
Tuco “ shut up “
😂 tuco had zero respect for jessi
“ok😔”
Lmao that's that "no you wouldn't, shut up" 🤣
Real recognize real. Jesse was quite beta in the first few seasons. TBH, personally I still couldn't take him serious as a viewer.

Are you telling me a fly in that scene is the same fly in super lab? No! He orchestrated it! Jimmy.
Crazy easter egg 😂
Vavo brince!
1:35 Walt passes Tuco's lie detector test.
Glad others are catching this. Adds to the whole “Mr. White is the devil” line; he flat out beat Tuco’s test
Too bad he couldn't pass Skyler's lie detector lmao
Reminds me of Larry David's running gag on Curb. lol

Favorite interaction in the whole show
I love Tuco's hilariously exaggerated pronunciation of Walt's name, WALL-TURR HARRT-WELL WHYTE 🤣.
Funniest thing I've seen in that episode
Whiter Fartwell Walt
Waltuh
It's kinda sad that Tuco died thinking Gonzo betrayed him.
At least he went to hell and learned the truth from em himself
Rip Tuco 😔
Not sad at all if you ask me.
Yeah, his emotional breakdown at 3:20 always gave me goosebumps. Even though Tuco was pretty much just an unredeemable lunatic, he still loved those he considered family.
I mean not really since gonzo had already been dead and btw the way he went out was so brutal
The laugh when he sees a condom in Jesse's wallet LMFAO
I think it's ironic that Jesse gets ridiculed over this when we see him getting the most game through the whole series more than any other character lol
He laughed because of the size, @@wachimol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@wachimol I mean he is pretty much the best looking guy on the show lol
“A real G goes in Raw” was probably his thought 😂
Tuco loved Gonzo like a brother in law.
No Doze came at him with a chainsaw. He’s got a right to defend himself
Makes sense, he never snapped at Gonzo when he spoke when he wasn’t spoken to.
Tbh how much more betrayal could Tuco take? It's like he'd been stabbed in the heart
Let me tell you a couple of three things: forget tuco, forget gustavo, forget Mike who goes out in new Mexico and never comes back...Walter White has no respect for this thing. He's never been in the can, not really!
@@FelineLegionWe got this pygmy thing over in Albuquerque
I just loved how Tuco hates Jesse for no reason at all lol
I think it might be his wannabe thug way of talking and dressing maybe? For an actual thug that might come off as pathetic.
because of his pretends
He already iced Jesse after telling him to shut up
Everything is on edge and worlds are colliding, yet Tuco still is down to earth enough to tax a try hard
He see him as a half pint, a nobody. Compared to Walter, he is way less respectable.
@@vitorferreira6104 I mean Gus was the same way, but even more so

Hector with a beard looks so different and here quite miserable after Lalo's death a couple of years ago. Also: Tuco and Lalo had some fire outfits🔥
Nacho too.
Makes me want to raid the cartel's closet
All the Salamancas were dripped tf out.
yeah fully paralyzed and can't speak, cannot believe the guy isn't dancing around and laughing
Lalo didn't exist yet.
🤓
Heisenberg: Say my name
Dude that looks like Wolverine: Walter Hartwell White
“You’re not goddamn right.”
"Well yeah but no"
Imagine in an alternate timeline. Lalo was the one who kidnapped them
Lalo probably would have killed Walt and Jesse, but I still like to think they would have found a way out of it. Walt was highly unpredictable when backed into a corner, so I think he has a fair shot against Lalo.

Incredible acting. Raymond Cruz
What’s crazy is the actor is soooo different. He’s super quiet and reserved. He said Tuco was exhausting to play. Insane acting chops and energy.
At this rate this channel is just going to post the entirety of the show
Walter White: Chemistry Teacher
Heisenberg: Drug Manufacturer
Mr. Lambert: Criminal Mastermind
This is crazy. I just now watched this episode a few minutes ago! Decided to rewatch the series and loving it again.
I wonder if Hector is still thinking about Nacho
He doesn’t have any jello tho 😢
Hector has one man in his mind: Gus.
*3:37 hector like damn i miss lalo
Imagine what lalo would do if he was there with tuco. Probably just smile and take hector out for a walk.
So bummed
bet Lalo was his closest nephew
Hector reaction: 🗿
I love how Tuco pronounces Walter’s name, like it’s some sort of bacteria, had me in tears 😂😂
loved that series watched it like 4 times already
He is really in quite a kind and generous mood here. It's truly fortunate that he did not have access to peanut butter crank during this conference.

"YEAHHHHH! MAN! LOOKA THAT LOOK! LOOKA LOOKA THAT LOOK!!!"
Such a terrifying psychopath but where do they sell these cool snake skin shirts??
“It’s a business name.”
You can actually see Tuco think, “Dam, that’s a good idea man!” 😂
Walking on eggshells like crazy
Perfect way to end the clip 😂
sounds like walt was smart enough to know how to plant an idea into tuco's head while making him think he came up with it
"I can see the future you know" followed by their faces has to be one of the most hilarious scenes in the entire show, Tuco is just absolutely insane
"Walter Hartwell White" one of the whitest names I've ever heard

Imagine if they had to deal with Lalo
Lalo would just be charismatic and make them talk anyway
