Hector really had no cards left to play and Walter White provided him with the possibility he'd die in a way befitting of a crime boss while also knowing he'd take the man he hated more than anyone with him. How could he possibly turn something like that down? He was already dead in every way since Fring had destroyed both the entire Salamanca family and all of Hector's associates so the entire cartel was gone, not to mention he made him a cripple who can't talk and who will slowly rot away in a nursing home with nobody to visit him except Gus Fring. We never saw Hector's reaction (that would spoil it) but I'd say Hector felt grateful Walter White granted him a revenge for while he cared little what Walter White would do after he knew killing Gus Fring would provide him with one final joy. Dying himself didn't bother him by this point.
I think the actor did a great job portraying Hector's silent struggle. Calm, then starts to cry a little bit, then that fierce look of determination... As he starts banging the bell.
Yes. It's the reason I researched and bought that exact make and model of bell. It's made in India. If I'm ever wheelchair-bound, I will use it as Hector did. To signal, not to blow up anyone!

It’s unlikely the traffic report people would have news on casualty numbers so soon, or at all. But, the mention of 3 dead was necessary for Walter to hear, so …
Gus Fring is one of the best characters in the history of television. I thought Giancarlo's casting for the Mandalorian was a bad choice, that or the way the director wanted him to play the role.
When this episode first aired, I thought Gus called Hector "a crippled literati", and I was thinking "I never realized that Hector was an avid book reader". LOL
I've been a big fan of Giancarlo Esposito since "School Daze" and "Do The Right Thing". He has turned into a fine actor and character actor. Character actors have long lives and careers. Norman Lloyd was 100 years old when he appeared in "Trainwreck". Keep on truckin', Giancarlo! We'll be watching!
i just realized the reason gus had his face blown in half was because of a metaphor of guys- the right side: a corporate, friendly face. the left side: a hollow and cold business side
Tbf he was talking about snitching. Not being interrogated by them. Gus was being interrogated by the DEA and was just answering their questions. Thats not what he meant.
he has such a solid, robotic, obsessively planned routine, that even in extreme body pain and adrenaline saturation, his muscle memory is still following the plan. much like a comatose submarine operator in the cold war still typing out an "sos" telegram. very convenient for mike to say it all worked like clockwork under gus, gus was more clock than human
Alternate timeline where Gus survives Chicken Restaurant employees: "Omg, boss, wtf happened to you?!" Gus: "..... Remember when I told you all it was dangerous to have any water near cooking oil?"
Gus always lauded Walt and Jessie for having weaknesses, for being predictable. He prided himself on thinking ahead, for never showing weakness. However, when he saw the pipe bomb, he realized he made a mistake. He allowed Jessie to see his one weakness, the one thing he couldn't turn away from ever. And Jessie would have told Walt. Gus' weakness was exposed to his enemies. That's why he screamed.
Gus could have let Hector die of a heart attack. Instead he literally saved his life just to torment him. Ultimately it was his own actions that caused his undoing. And now, two less terrible people exist in that universe
My favorite explosion in any medium, anywhere, any time period. It''s the reason I researched and bought that exact make and model of bell. It's made in India. If I'm ever wheelchair-bound, I will use it as Hector did. To signal, not to blow up anyone!
I've always wondered if this were possible. Like chickens run around for several seconds with literally no heads. So could a person with half his face blown off still get up and straighten his tie and start to walk before his blood stops flowing to the brain. Maybe they are in shock and maybe the adrenaline keeps him going a few seconds? Any medical experts here?
Gustavo no debió morir. Se victimizo a Héctor cuando el era el único que merecía morir. La rata cobarde que siempre fue Walter lo mató supuestamente por un ataque paranoico pero en realidad fue por envidia. Siempre odio a Gustavo porque le tenía envidia
This is the moment the serious went to $hit. Yes, there were some moments with the death of Jack, jesse being free etc. However, after Gus is gone, mike died by Walter, is B$. No closure on his end, all he did was for nothing, the DEA seized his money he collected for his granddaufhter. All for nothing... Any time I rewatch, I end it with the death of gus.
A daily brisk walker for a number of years Giancarlo Esposito does not look like this anymore. Practice the art of daily brisk walking for the mathematical benefits that payoff like compounding interest.
I'm being serious when asking this question okay guys. Here we go. As Gus is leaving the room still fully intact, no heavy blood loss occuring, is it not possible to save someone in this kind of state still? He's missing i suppose most of his cheek, and an entire eyeball being the worst of the lot. His brain is still there, so is his heart and main organs, nothing punctured.
What they were trying to portray was that Gus had been hit with the explosion at close range, and received fatal injuries. People who are severely injured can sometimes function for a few seconds or longer, depending on the type of injury. They are typically in shock, and are often unaware that they have been hurt. This happens in military combat. There's an old saying that if you were shot and fell down a flight of stairs, you wouldn't remember being shot, because the more recent trauma becomes top of mind. Also, it's a tv show.
Hector was probably on board with dying this way for 2 reasons:
1) He gets Fring
2) Fring will never get the satisfaction of killing Hector himself
Hector really had no cards left to play and Walter White provided him with the possibility he'd die in a way befitting of a crime boss while also knowing he'd take the man he hated more than anyone with him. How could he possibly turn something like that down? He was already dead in every way since Fring had destroyed both the entire Salamanca family and all of Hector's associates so the entire cartel was gone, not to mention he made him a cripple who can't talk and who will slowly rot away in a nursing home with nobody to visit him except Gus Fring.

Fring was gonna kill hector soon anyway lol. He said he saved him for last
3) Hector had nothing left to live for anyway.
After watching "Better Call Saul", it's clear that Hector Salamanca very much deserved to die. So did Fring. They both did. And they both _DID._
I mean, since the original
Thanks for clearing that up for us
bro this comment is weird af
Gus hated Hector so much, he refused to die in the same room as him!
accurate.Lol. ALso refused to die at the same time
I think the actor did a great job portraying Hector's silent struggle. Calm, then starts to cry a little bit, then that fierce look of determination... As he starts banging the bell.

i like how the thing that concerned the news people most about the explosion was how it would affect traffic lmao
LITERALLY what the said just today about a crash on the 401 in Ontario, CA with 4 dead (including an infant).
modern "utilitarianism"
People just wanna commute, man. Life shouldn't be this hard.
@Migglesworth Lol yeah but still a funny tone shift

@@elianwilliams That scene was a little too fake .
This is the moment when Gus became Harvey Two-Face.

Hector gave Gus a piece of his mind...and his fist...and his arm...and his torso....
He eyeballed him too, and gave him a tongue lashing!
This would never have happened at Taco Cabeza

Breaking Bad ends in three episodes.
ha ha!!! why this doesn't have ten thousand likes is beyond me lol!!
Gus Fring killing Don Eladio & Lalo, and Hector killing Gus are most tight scenes in dui Better call saul and Breaking Bad. Great direction
i just realized the reason gus had his face blown in half was because of a metaphor of guys- the right side: a corporate, friendly face. the left side: a hollow and cold business side
Gus is like "I would not want to meet my maker with an untidy tie.." 😅 "Much better! Now I can go."
"What kind of man talks to the DEA? No man at all"
Gus talking to the DEA a few episodes back:
Gus had a conversation with the DEA but he didn't *talk*
Tbf he was talking about snitching. Not being interrogated by them. Gus was being interrogated by the DEA and was just answering their questions. Thats not what he meant.
“The situation is pretty Hectic”. Great writing
RIP Hector
he has such a solid, robotic, obsessively planned routine, that even in extreme body pain and adrenaline saturation, his muscle memory is still following the plan. much like a comatose submarine operator in the cold war still typing out an "sos" telegram. very convenient for mike to say it all worked like clockwork under gus, gus was more clock than human
Just cuz you killed Jesse James doesn’t mean you are Jesse James
Everlasting masterpiece
Spoiler alert
He turns into two face
i would say, half face :D
"The situation over there, I imagine, is pretty Hector....I mean hectic"
Yes I don't think he would have walked out since his aorta would have been severed
he woulda been insta killed, but that being said him walking out tightening his tie and dying is more dramatic
The monologuing always gets ‘em.
Best series ever. Unreal storyline.
Unknowingly, Lalo gave Hector the instrument to kill Gus
Alternate timeline where Gus survives
Chicken Restaurant employees: "Omg, boss, wtf happened to you?!"
Gus: "..... Remember when I told you all it was dangerous to have any water near cooking oil?"
As a final indignity Gus should have hired Hector as a Los Pollos Hermanos employee.
Greatest death scene ever
This was an intense scene . Everyone was hoping Walter would win .
When you’ve never been happier to learn about how bad the traffic is that day.
The explosion was on the left side, while Gus face was blown on the right side! 🤯
He must have run to escape the blast.
@@SurajKumar-oo8vrexactly, he must have tried to turn at the last second

For whom the bell tolls
Gus could have let Hector die of a heart attack. Instead he literally saved his life just to torment him. Ultimately it was his own actions that caused his undoing. And now, two less terrible people exist in that universe
This was the only time he dragged the chair rather than picking it up..
Having OCD, He considered it an annoying way
Let us all remember Gus Fring’s last words.
Best show ever.
They should have said "Breaking Big News"
Best scene ever
One of the rare times in the BB/BCS universe (Possibly the only time?) when Gus completely loses his composure.
One of the best scenes ever.
Melt side face is for drug cartel and the other side is for los pollos
Gus is such a neat freak he staightens his tie after half of face has been blown off.
Walt was always a narcissistic sociopath but it really shines here.
As David xanatos once said “revenge as they say is a suckers game “
At the end when Walt’s reverseing his car out he gives way to an RV
I still can't believe they allowed Hector to use morse code to spell out the n word with a hard R
Is that true?
@@PittheadXyes it is
I know this is a meme but Hector was in fact canonically racist to Gus 😂
I,.m glad they let him fix his tie again.

Apparently Giancarlo Esposito has the same problem as Ralph Fiennes. Some people are absolutely terrified of him
I remember there was a story he told where he went to the bathroom on a plane and one of the people on the plane was terrified of him lol
Best line ever... "a crippled little rata..."
Hector's favorite character from Clear and Present Danger.
BEST SHOW EVER!!!!!

Yes, this is actually not that uncommon, for the reasons you suggest.
Plenty of stories of people managing to walk after being decapitated. Legends, but there is some truth to it
More than ' legend ',1st responders and EMts have seen this happen , they don't talk about it very much .
By the end of the year, anyone caught binging on TV gets thrown in jail.
How your head damn near blowed off but suit still clean
Breaking bad was the most stunning, exciting, brilliant production I've ever seen!!!! Acting top of the range ❤❤❤❤

Anyone else though hector crapped himself and it turned out to be gus moving the chair?😅
That man would not be walking. Look how the pressure blew the door out.
