Fuckin yes. Finally someone else understands. He is probably my favorite character in any media. Every move planned and thought out meticulously. And the only time he acts out of pride or selfishness he dies. It kills him. Beautiful
Carlos O if you think about it, a lot of Breaking Bad characters died because of pride. Walter dying because he was prideful of his meth and coming back to ABQ, Jacks pride by showing Walter that he wasn’t lying, and Gus
This scene was pure genius. The director knew everyone was expecting Gus's death so he added a little touch of music and slowmo to confirm our suspicions and make us realize one of the series' greatest characters was walking to his end. Never thought a mere walk could give me such chills.
This scene wasn't as powerful until I rewatched the series. At that point you fully understand the man, Gus Fring, who conquered everything, is heading off to his demise. All because he crossed Heisenberg...
Agreed. Well sort of. I think it's still powerful but in a different way. On my sixth rewatch of BB, I lost my respect and admiration for Walt much much earlier on. Even before he let Jane die. Heisenberg was always there, ever since that 4th of July weekend or even before. Walt's always been that sort of man who wanted more, and when he meets and starts a relationship with Gus, things are already tense because of Walt's manner. As we start seeing more of Gus and his backstory, I started admiring him as the businessman and successful human he is. His confrontations with Walt, while antagonistic are professional and necessary for the business. This scene in a way gives Gus a moment in the protagonist spotlight. He's the "hero" of the story as he walks to his doom, which we know is coming. We've gotten to know this man and realizing what 's about to happen. It's a borderline genius setup
@@ReMattch i dont think he let jane die she was ODing and this isnt pulp fiction you cant just save people like that. Who knows how long at that point when he found her she was fucked up
Ben Jackson you obviously haven’t seen BB then because Walt says he let Jane die to Jesse, and he could’ve saved her all he had to do was turn her on her side and try to wake her up from a heroin sleep.
Just imagine how powerful this scene would be to someone who watches whole Better Call Saul series once it gets completed, and then switches to watching Breaking Bad for the first time.
I know in the conventional sense Gus is the bad guy, but holy shit his mere presence within this series was better than any other characters. Gus is such a force to be reckoned with, and he's so god damn good at what he does, watching him mindlessly walking towards his death, utterly destroyed me.
YES then you understand me Gus was my favorite character of the whole series the way he talked the way he acted everything, Giancarlo Esposito did an AMAZING job I was so sad when he got killed
This scene is like a western standoff with the music and tension. Only instead of a gunfight, it's an intellectual fight, and still manages to end with a bang, and Walt wins.
It's just like a game of chess too. The way they manipulate the people around them and use them as weapons has its similarities. Jesse and Mike and all the other underdogs are like their pawns
So if I understand, his strongest ability was not to be emotional about his business and the decisions he ever made. But nobody is perfect, and he tooked Hector too seriously and personally, and it was his end.
Honestly, had he finally just killed Hector after the Salamanca twins died, after he was the last living Salamanca, he would have gotten more than enough revenge, and he would have tied up a loose end. Then it wouldn't have been a weak point to attack him from. But no, he wanted Hector to die of old age, to live in his misery for as long as possible, after he'd taken everything from him and utterly destroyed him. Gus just couldn't let it go. And ultimately it killed him. Walt saw how he could use Hector, he knew it was the weak spot he needed to win, and he did.
This is about Walt's desperation and evil, not Gus' weakness. Gus was careful and incredibly smart but there is nobody in the world who could have anticipated just how insane Walt has become.
Gus: "God, how will I die?" God: "You will die in a nursing home". Gus: "Oh good that must mean I get to live a long life and die at a ripe old age" God: "Yeah... about that..."
I really love this scene. It’s something you don’t see often in TV because they want to keep the character’s death suspenseful. But by this point in Breaking Bad, everyone basically knew that Gus was going to die so there was no point in pretending that he wouldn’t. So they gave him this beautiful scene to emphasize Gus’s prominence before sending this remarkable character to his grave.
@Richard Bachman Welp, seeing as I saw Walt come up with an elaborate plan to kill Gus and Gus _was_ walking straight into the trap, coupled with the fact that this was the season finale so if something final was going to happen to Gus, this would be the episode to do it. Him putting on a fine ass suit, and all the camera work focusing on Gus- it all pointed to the fact that this might be it for him. Also, the song played when _Gus_ was in the scene, not Hector. As such, at this point, Gus was a far more important character than Hector. Why the fuck would Vince Gilligan waste a scene trying to foreshadow Hector's death? He's pretty much dead- that's for sure, and feeding us information that we already have does. not. make. sense. So, yeah, my smart ass thinks this was pretty much directed towards Gus.
I guess I'm stupid because everyone else says they knew he was about to die, but all I could think was, "Okay, this is a complete shift. Something huge is about to happen."
One of the best TV show scenes in history, EVER. The intensity, the chills, the depth the villain has, the direction. the music, It’s all perfect. 11/10 for breaking bad
radf telling me to shut the fuck up for giving my opinion is very childish so i suppose you’re a kid who didn’t get enough attention from his parents walt was a piece of shit i liked him but truth be told he caused 2 planes to crash because he didn’t save jane which made her father go ape shit with his depression and causing the crash,he ordered jesse to kill gale who also didn’t do anything wrong which proves your dumbass wrong better yet he killed all of mikes men who were in prison just so they don’t snitch on him like he’s the godfather while compared to gus he only killed victor because he wanted to prove a point and because victor was responsible for the safety of gale and he killed an entire fucking cartel because they pushed him off his limits and killed the salamancas as a revenge for his old friend so don’t tell me walt’s actions are forgiven he’s not a hero kid you only see him as one because he’s the main actor the only good guys in the entire show are skyler,marie,flynn and hank the rest are all criminals don’t bother responding because i won’t read it
The Slayer Of Gods jane was innocent she didn’t do anything wrong except for using drugs which is something common alot of people do and gale he didn’t do anything as well for him to get murdered by jesse he was killed because walt didn’t have a choice but to kill him to save his own ass and the cartel well i didn’t say they were innocent did i? Yep i didn’t say they were but gale and jane ? They didn’t deserve to die they did some rookie ass crimes that last time i checked wouldn’t get you killed
This scene might be my favorite in the entire show. The song is called "Goodbye" by Apparat in an Album called "The Devils Walk" which is obviously so fitting. Gus finally lets his guard down consumed by revenge and makes one singular devastating flaw against Heisenberg. You really feel the farewell emotion with the music, it's brilliant
This scene becomes so much more powerful after Better Call Saul. We see everything Gus had worked for. All of the chess pieces he moved, all of his careful planning and all the obstacles he overcame. And we see all of that about to come crashing down as he walks to his death with a perfect soundtrack. "Goodbye" from "The Devil's Walk." It just hits so much harder, man.
Watching this after you’ve watched better call Saul first is actually mesmerizing. You had 6 seasons with this man. (Adding up BCS season 3,4,5,6 and BB 3 and 4) and it came to an end in a fantastic way.
Notice at the beginning when he still sits in the car how the right half of his face is darkened by the shadow caused by the sun, foreshadowing the part of his face that will blow off...Damn this show was brilliant.
You gotta appreciate how the writers let the characters drive the story. It was the obsession for vengeance that drove Gus this far, this successful, and it was exactly the same obsession that got him killed.
I love how this scene even shows that Gus had the place cleared before he entered. It shows it wasn’t a mistake made of laziness or being naive, Walter just out duels him.
Well Tyrus was scanning for wires, which is why he didn’t notice the bomb. Gus was so convinced he had destroyed Hector that he couldn’t comprehend he was part of any plan for revenge.
@@jeremytewari3346He scanned for wires before Walter planted the bomb. It was planted after he left to inform Gus since Tyrus wasn't aware Walter was in the room. To be fair, it was inconceivable to them that Saul was ultimately the one who tipped Walter off about Hector and Gus' animosity, allowing Walter to exploit that one single lapse in Gus' judgement.
A great cinematic scene from cinematography point of view:- Gus while walking towards the hospital takes the centre path along the pebbles and sand and didn't take the usual round path foreshadowing he didn't take calculated measures and out of ego just went on killing hector.. A great cinematic writing !
i just love the way how he checked left and right crossing the parkway like a careful man who dont want to take any risk, who wants to know everything and everyone he operates with but not careful enough to see he's going towards his death.
@@robinchrist6599 you're right but the difference is that walt mostly killed to survive, he never cut a guy's throat open with a box cutter just to "send a message"
@@oscarleon4183 go thru what Gus has been thru and you can't read between the lines anymore. Gus was mos def the best character on here. He did not fill anymore than he had to. But he didn't cry like a bitch when the moment came to do so.
Looking back and seeing everything that happened to him from the first day that he met Hector Salamanca, it's quite the finale. He always knew a day like this was coming and here it finally came. He just didn't realize that Hector would have the last laugh, which was really the only thing Gus allowed him to have in the end. Gus took everything else from him.
Hector Salamanca. The man who turned Gus into who he is, the man who shot his best friend and made him stare at the dead body, the man who fueled Gus’ quest to take down all of the Salamanca’s and everyone who did him dirty. This might just appear as Gus walking into a simple nursing home, but to him this is everything.
not really. you can see him genuinely shocked when he saw the bomb. it seems more like he was preparing himself to end this feud with Hector after all these years.
The Heisenberg Equation of Quantum Physics states that at an instance either the momentum or the position of a particle can be known NEVER BOTH!!! Everyone in Breaking Bad series saw only Walt's "position" never could have guessed his "momentum"
Damn, Gus is in my top 5 favorite TV characters of all time easily. One of the smartest men who ever lived. He took risks but he calculated those risks. He walked a tightrope while managing to get revenge on his enemies. At least he walked out of Hector’s room with shoulders held high before the fall.
I love how this is one of the few times where we see Gus slightly lose his cold and calculating expression, his eye is twitching, instead of walking around the gravel, he walks straight through it, and his face is determined, the music feels so somber yet triumphant because Gus thinks he’s finally getting revenge for Max… but we all know better… Walt had him and Hector got the true last laugh, surviving Lalo, Don Eladio, Bolsa, it was all for nothing
He's already operating on a razor's edge, his radar is sky-high for personal danger (hence, him just knowing to not get back in his Volvo earlier). As cool and calculating as he is, that nearly-imperceptible flinch really showed the human being, the mortal man, inside the murderous kingpin.
Watching Breaking Bad after Better Call Saul hits even harder. All the efforts that went onto creating an Empire got collapsed by a high school chemistry teacher.
Y’know Hector’s last words from BCS being “It is Personal” is very poetic: Hector never killed Gus because of him putting him in the wheelchair, he did it because of Lalo’s death, Tuco’s Death, Marco’s Death, Leonel’s death and Joaquin’s death, Their deaths were personal, too
I Watched BrBa After Finishing Dark And Dude When It Started Playing It Really Took Me A Second To Acctually Realise That Thing Acctually Happened...Like Man, I Got chills..
its Called Goodbye...By Apprat Or Something like that and If u want the score name its Called "Dark Intro" And Dark's A Show Available On Netflix And If you haven't watched it give it a watch it's an masterpiece!
They picked up REALLY a lot from Sergio Leone’s work in this scene. The shots, the colors, the pace, the music which resembles (only resembles..) the masterpieces of Ennio Morricone.
If you watch Better Call Saul and then this you realize that Gus killed so many incredible opponents but he ended up dying at the hands of Walter White
At the time Gus's death made me extremely happy. Walter had won. He and his family was safe and the man responsible for the usage of children in drug trading would no longer do evil. But then season 5 happened. Jesse was enslaved and lost his 2nd girlfriend, Walter lost everything, Mike died after losing all the money he had saved up for his granddaughter and Walter caused all of this. When Gus was around there was a sense of security since he had things under control. The chaos of Season 5 terrified me and made me long for when we knew what to expect. Imagine that.
There's something in his eyes that tells us he's not so sure he's safe, he doubts all is "clear" and somehow knows Walter's threat is there. But his pride and talent numb his intelligence, as he will not fear Hector after coming so far. This is the only scene we see Gustavo in contained yet extreme fear.
My friends saying-“Got is the best show of all time” Me-“You ever watch Breaking Bad?” Them-“Why does it matter? You think it’s better than Got” Me-“We’ll it’s grade school tee ball vs the New York Yankees”
GOT was better than BB for a bit, but the drop off was massive where BB only got stronger. With it all wrapped up and the ending... GOT has the worst ending of all time and is officially outside of the top 20 best shows of all time because of it. Meanwhile BB got a decent movie and a spin off series that's in some ways even better than BB. As a whole BB is hands down one of the best shows ever written and GOT can't lift a candle to it.
On a lesser show, telegraphing the fact that the main villain is definitely going to die in the episode so blatantly like this would come off as really silly, especially since a lot of shows (even BB/BCS at some points) go for the shock and awe of a sudden major character death nowadays. Not here though. This scene works so beautifully. I still get goosebumps. Gus is just about the best character I’ve ever seen on television.
I think these scene was made to praise and send a goodbye to one of the greatest villians. The theme that is playing in the background is also called goodbye
One lapse in judgment and his whole empire collapses. Powerful.

@@robinchrist6599 you're right but the difference is that walt mostly killed to survive, he never cut a guy's throat open with a box cutter just to "send a message"
@@oscarleon4183 he is great actor 😍👌
@@oscarleon4183 go thru what Gus has been thru and you can't read between the lines anymore. Gus was mos def the best character on here. He did not fill anymore than he had to. But he didn't cry like a bitch when the moment came to do so.
This scene is so much more powerful after his death.
Me entering exam hall after studying nothing .
Honestly, it is the worst feeling a student can experience
Looking back and seeing everything that happened to him from the first day that he met Hector Salamanca, it's quite the finale. He always knew a day like this was coming and here it finally came. He just didn't realize that Hector would have the last laugh, which was really the only thing Gus allowed him to have in the end. Gus took everything else from him.
Every time I hear this my hair stands on end and I get chills. This is by far the best send off for any character in any show/movie I have ever seen.
Relax
Me heading into the test I didn't study for
I just noticed that the other guy in car has half of his face covered by shadows, and half visible. Such a genius foreshadowing!
Walter, Lalo and Héctor got revenge in the end with the only emotional attachment Gus had... Hate and vengeance, so well written
Hector Salamanca. The man who turned Gus into who he is, the man who shot his best friend and made him stare at the dead body, the man who fueled Gus’ quest to take down all of the Salamanca’s and everyone who did him dirty. This might just appear as Gus walking into a simple nursing home, but to him this is everything.
It’s crazy to think about, but its almost as if Gus knew he was going to die.
not really. you can see him genuinely shocked when he saw the bomb. it seems more like he was preparing himself to end this feud with Hector after all these years.
@@osmoticmonk yeah, but other than that he acts unusually cold. Yeah, guys does act very cold normally but not this much.
I was thinking the same when I was watching that episode I was like damn!!!! my boy bout go and I think he knows it... man I love this show
Click03 well he was about to kill hector. He hated hector and was a straight up psychopath when psychologically torturing hector.
@@osmoticmonk He didn't know how he'd die but he knew his life would be in danger until Walter was dead
This is the Dark theme song and I’m so happy about this
My last walk song*
Dark came after so many years
@@sayanbhattacharjee4398 So did Vikings. Still most people acociate "If I had a Heart" with this show, even though bb used it first
I noticed that too and freaked out haha
No it's a random song in Breaking Bad. Breaking Bad came before Vikings and Dark, and is the superior show to both.
"HAWWW" *BOOM*
He was about to explain how black holes work
“Or you’ll do what?” -Walter
“What did you just say?!” - Gus
That line by gus scared me honestly 😭
Yea walter has balls to say that
It's so amazing how they manage to replicate the same walk cycle of Walter White towards Gus in the dessert with Fring instead towards Walter's trap.
This was the single most powerful musical score in the entire season. I knew he was marching to his death. Music doesn’t lie
I think it comes second. The first is the ending of granite state
The Heisenberg Equation of Quantum Physics states that at an instance either the momentum or the position of a particle can be known NEVER BOTH!!!
Everyone in Breaking Bad series saw only Walt's "position" never could have guessed his "momentum"
Legend says the driver is still waiting for him outside.
The same driver was shot by Mike in s5 ep2, after killing chow.
After watching Better Call Saul, I feel even worse for Gus now.
Damn, Gus is in my top 5 favorite TV characters of all time easily. One of the smartest men who ever lived. He took risks but he calculated those risks. He walked a tightrope while managing to get revenge on his enemies. At least he walked out of Hector’s room with shoulders held high before the fall.
Me walking to tell my mom I shit my pants:
I love how this is one of the few times where we see Gus slightly lose his cold and calculating expression, his eye is twitching, instead of walking around the gravel, he walks straight through it, and his face is determined, the music feels so somber yet triumphant because Gus thinks he’s finally getting revenge for Max… but we all know better… Walt had him and Hector got the true last laugh, surviving Lalo, Don Eladio, Bolsa, it was all for nothing
That tiny flinch he gives to betray his nervousness as the phone rings... Such fine acting from Esposito.
He's already operating on a razor's edge, his radar is sky-high for personal danger (hence, him just knowing to not get back in his Volvo earlier). As cool and calculating as he is, that nearly-imperceptible flinch really showed the human being, the mortal man, inside the murderous kingpin.
Watching Breaking Bad after Better Call Saul hits even harder. All the efforts that went onto creating an Empire got collapsed by a high school chemistry teacher.
Y’know Hector’s last words from BCS being “It is Personal” is very poetic:
Hector never killed Gus because of him putting him in the wheelchair, he did it because of Lalo’s death, Tuco’s Death, Marco’s Death, Leonel’s death and Joaquin’s death,
Their deaths were personal, too
The moment when two of the Best TV shows Ever met together.
I Watched BrBa After Finishing Dark And Dude When It Started Playing It Really Took Me A Second To Acctually Realise That Thing Acctually Happened...Like Man, I Got chills..
Only breaking bad can make a simple looking man intense while he's just casually walking in a nursing home
Gustavo Fring's fate was so obvious after this scene
Surprised he wasnt sent 33 years into the past
Notice how the half of his face that gets blown off is not illuminated by the sun while he’s in the car. Foreshadowing.
This proves that Vince Gilligan is a genius
The power of the music. He's just walking, lol. And this is getting sadder everytime you re-watch the episode.
its Called Goodbye...By Apprat Or Something like that and If u want the score name its Called "Dark Intro" And Dark's A Show Available On Netflix And If you haven't watched it give it a watch it's an masterpiece!
Just want to point out to a few people why this scene is powerful because u see the end of an era and the start of a new witch is a symbolic moment
They picked up REALLY a lot from Sergio Leone’s work in this scene. The shots, the colors, the pace, the music which resembles (only resembles..) the masterpieces of Ennio Morricone.
If you watch Better Call Saul and then this you realize that Gus killed so many incredible opponents but he ended up dying at the hands of Walter White
Walking to the front of the class to give your presentation:
Me going for that exam with absolutely zero preparation knowing very well I am going to fail:
This is the moment Saul Goodman turns into Heisenberg.
I love this meme
"It's Saul clear."💀Turns out Saul cleared him.
At the time Gus's death made me extremely happy. Walter had won. He and his family was safe and the man responsible for the usage of children in drug trading would no longer do evil. But then season 5 happened. Jesse was enslaved and lost his 2nd girlfriend, Walter lost everything, Mike died after losing all the money he had saved up for his granddaughter and Walter caused all of this. When Gus was around there was a sense of security since he had things under control. The chaos of Season 5 terrified me and made me long for when we knew what to expect.
Imagine that.
This 1 minute walk is infinitely more powerful than the Night King's 8 minute walk towards Bran, plus soundtrack.
that driver still waiting for Gus !
*Dark Intro right here*
Moral of the story: “Never threaten a family man”
There's something in his eyes that tells us he's not so sure he's safe, he doubts all is "clear" and somehow knows Walter's threat is there. But his pride and talent numb his intelligence, as he will not fear Hector after coming so far. This is the only scene we see Gustavo in contained yet extreme fear.
When the boss calls you into his room to talk
Imagine him walking and suddenly trips and falls down.
lul
The clock ticking...
The music..
The phone ringing..
The statement.. "Wait here"
C'mon maaaan... pure genius!! 👏
My friends saying-“Got is the best show of all time”
Me-“You ever watch Breaking Bad?”
Them-“Why does it matter? You think it’s better than Got”
Me-“We’ll it’s grade school tee ball vs the New York Yankees”
GOT is not even close to breaking bad.
GOT was better than BB for a bit, but the drop off was massive where BB only got stronger. With it all wrapped up and the ending... GOT has the worst ending of all time and is officially outside of the top 20 best shows of all time because of it. Meanwhile BB got a decent movie and a spin off series that's in some ways even better than BB. As a whole BB is hands down one of the best shows ever written and GOT can't lift a candle to it.
Lost is the best show of all time imo but BB is way better than GOT for sure
BB aged like fine wine, GOT aged like skunked beer...
Got was the BOOK ever, the tv show was good when it followed the book (arguably even better that bb) then it became shit
On a lesser show, telegraphing the fact that the main villain is definitely going to die in the episode so blatantly like this would come off as really silly, especially since a lot of shows (even BB/BCS at some points) go for the shock and awe of a sudden major character death nowadays. Not here though.
This scene works so beautifully. I still get goosebumps. Gus is just about the best character I’ve ever seen on television.
I think these scene was made to praise and send a goodbye to one of the greatest villians. The theme that is playing in the background is also called goodbye
"It's all clear."
You know if Gus had survived the bomb, that dude would've been fired.
How a simple "wait here" can save your life...
This was slightly prior to the exact moment Gus Fring became Two-Face
He should've gone back in time to 1986 to rethink his fate so he dosesn't have to become DARK.
Giancarlo is a great and versatile actor. He was great in "Fresh" also.
As if he knew death is awaiting for him, great scene, great musical atmosphore, goodbye
It's like an inevitable moment meeting his grim reaper
really? When the wolf meets the lion
This is literally me on the First Day of School.
