The fact that they trusted Lalo and treated him like a family and he could do such a thing lays out how bad he is. You can easily get swept up in his personality and charisma but this scene shows you that beneath all that there is nothing but a sociopath.
Yeah unfortunately in most of these shows scumbags like this die quickly & don't suffer enough. People like Lalo should've been chained & tortured like a animal for days. Not a quick few shots to the neck. It's always the good people that get to suffer.

Such an unnerving scene that completely encapsulates just how psychotic and brutal Lalo is, and how nonchalant he is about taking someone's life. An amazingly well written character.
I wouldn't call him nonchalant here. He seemed to dislike having to kill them. That's their sole purpose of course and he will do it, whether he likes it or not, but I think he still connects with people he comes into contact with in his day to day life.
@@NtoTheM I think he is a true psychopath. He connects with people, but in a superficial way, and often in order to manipulate. Like a farmer with his favourite animals.

The most crazy part about this scene after watching it for the second time is that the farmer was a plan scape goat to fake Lalo’s death, in any event that might happen. In the later episodes, they asked if Lalo was really dead and they said that his dental records match Lalo’s! That’s why Lalo asked the wife how her husband’s teeth is feeling after his own dentist worked on the farmer! This wasn’t a random idea Lalo just came up on the spot. This was a planned emergency for the future😮
What are the odds that he'd be able to find a man of similar height and build as him, who also looks like him and who also happens to have such profound dental issues they get all their teeth reworked to match Lalo's? It's an excellent scene, but it's pretty much complete fantasy.
@@zyxyx6754 With his money and influence easily . If not a complete match plastic surgery would also be an option. Body doubles have been used for centuries.
That last moment is so chilling when his facial expression changes from “the beloved and compassionate Lalo that they know” to a cold killer stare. It’s almost unnoticeable if you don’t pay attention to it. I believe this is a reason why this scene is misunderstood and/or forgotten by so many. Tony did a hell of a job playing Lalo!!
I honestly didn't notice what this scene meant at first. I thought maybe they were Fring spies. Only after seeing the teeth line did I realize what this meant.
How long do you hold a smile? It's natural for a smile to fade. Only a lunatic would continue smiling for no reason. It just seems sinister to you because you know what Lalo did.
@@susieq360 Nah, it looks sinister regardless. His facial expression just looks menacing. Probably the scariest that he’s ever looked in the entire show.
You can see that even he feels a little reluctant to sink this low. But he does it anyway. There is nothing that Lalo won't do to win. Nothing. Heart of a monster.
@@AJtheRastamanLalo is absolutely a monster, but you can tell he doesn't enjoy this scene. Usually when Lalo is about to kill someone his smile gets bigger whether there's anyone to notice or not. This was like him having to put down a dog. I think that makes him worse tbh, that these could well have been some of his favorite people in the world outside his family but he spent years manipulating them into being the perfect way for him to get a body double is horrific in a way that "TV psycho who has no real emotions" could never be.
@@AJtheRastamanLalo is evil but he indeed has a heart. Look at his reaction to seeing the old lady dead on his grounds after they raided his compound and killed everyone, he even mentions is to Saul about the people that worked for him and how they all died and that he blames Nacho for it. Hes a complicated dude. Having no heart makes him too simple
I think it’s safe to say Lalo is the best villain in the BB universe. Insanely smart and calculating like Gus, insanely violent like Tuco, as psychotic as the Neo Nazis, just incredible. Edit: I should have said psychopathic or even sociopathic, not psychotic which is totally different.
One of the best for sure... having him number 1 is a valid opinion. I personally liked him more than Gus, but thought Gus was slightly better as an antagonist. I just hate how he went out tbh...
@@alirezajohari8916 I don’t think so, Gus had a routine and the only reason Walt got him was because he figured out part of that routine he didn’t know about. Lalo didn’t have any “business plan” he just did what he wanted. He would have beat Walter for sure.

Cualquier persona normal va asociar el hecho de que unos granjeros te digan que van a tener más animales con la reproducción. Pero él pensó que mandaron pedir más, y si así fuere, le preocuparía porque entonces no sería un asesinato sin pistas. Y de hecho lo fué, los mató ahí a sangre fría y usó el cuerpo del Mateo para hacer creer que estaba muerto. Lalo fué un personaje tan cruel y pudo transmitir bien esa simpatía psicopática que pude apreciar en el show entero. Bravo Vince !
The subtle look on Lalo's face when the woman tells him they're going to have baby goats. He probably felt a little bad about them which is why he asked if the new ones were coming from elsewhere.
Nah Lalo needed a body double to move uninterrupted.... Remember Gus has no proof Lalo was alive he could tell just from hector looking at him and shaking his hand!
i get the impression that Lalo had told Mateo earlier that he might need him to be a stand in for him some time, since he looks like him (a little bit). Notice how nonchalantly Mateo goes upstairs to shave off his beard.
@@noone-kk2zs You don't just shave a beard that was years worth to groom, just because your wife casually tells you to shave. It definitely looked like he knew he was expected to shave.
2:55 the face that he shows the world to hide who he truly is. 3:01 the real face of the sociopath underneath all the charm. 2:48 the face that hides his fate from his enemies
@@Onigirli Lalo cuck fanboys are a very toxic breed. They're the type that would probably vouch for a charismatic totalitarian dictator if he had a nice smile and manners xD
If you look closely, you can see that the man kept his mustache and his soul patch, because Lalo told him to just minutes prior. One of the millions of subtle albeit powerful nuances of the show. Bravo, Vince.
When i watched this scene on netflix for the first time i noticed that Mateo looks like Lalo after shaving .. but I could tell that this scene could have been less confusing for the audience .. .. Perhaps Lalo shouldn't kill these two immediately .. he should ask Mateo to come with him because he needs some help at home then kill him .. that would make it clear that The burned body in the next scene was Mateo's .. .. I mean it's obvious that many fans didn't get the concept of this scene : Lolo helped this poor couple a while ago only to use Mateo as a double in case he needed to fake his death ..
Such tremendous detail in the writing. When the wife tells Lalo they now have two more goats, the audience immediately assumes there were two new goats born to the existing herd. Lalo has zero nurturing instinct so he misses the implication completely and assumes to new purchases were made from elsewhere and added to the herd. Such a small detail, but so revealing how the mind of a psychopath is different.
I remember this little mirror shot that made into the teaser of s6, u genuinely thought it would be some bigger baddie than or at lalo's level who will appear as a boss level character 😂
He didn't even have to go this far..he told his uncle that he was alive which made Gus find out he was alive. If lalo didn't make up this plan and faked his death, maybe the cartel would've believed Hector that Gus was the one who send mercenaries after lalo
This scene made me lose any admiration I had for Lalo! Those people treated him like a King and didn't ask any questions. I know he couldn't leave any witnesses but dang!!!
1:11 IMO, This is the most terrifying shot of the series. It was infact this scene where I didn't feel his charisma. Lalo seemed totally unrecognisable and pure evil to me!
Lalo's foresight and plan here concerning the dental records remind me of "Charley Varrick," where Charley switches dental records with "Harmon," the killer played by Andy Robinson.
I always thought that was Christian Slater in the trailer and thought Lalo went to him for help and we were gonna see them v Gus. With Gus winning of course
Ya´ll need to understand one thing, when he asks about the dentist - its because he paid the dentist to make his teeth just like Lalo has. In other scene someone examines the "dead lalo" and says that it matches with his dentist papers. Lalo was grooming that guy as his dead double for a long time...
*Breaking Bad was all about Walter but Better Call Saul was about Saul and Kim and Lalo and Gus and that's why it is the beter show, it has a solid story with so many highly likeable characters and what's best! No Skylar!*
Knowing what we do of him, Lalo seems genuinely regretful of having to kill them and likely made it as quick and painless as possible. And didn't hesitate for a second. That makes him so much more frightening.
pporly written scene, like who would come out of the woods and directly go the bathroom because some boss-like figure like Lalo came to see them...that too a beard that would years to grow.
I didn't really get the significance of the scene when I saw it the first time. I knew Lalo did the murders. But it was only until after the episode in which Gus has to speak to Don Eladio. That it dawns on me. I would like to think the woman didn't get killed. She was so sweet. Reminds me of my mom or my aunties. But that is wishful thinking...
Of the few occasions in which Lalo did not feel comfortable with murdering someone, although for him that family had a purpose to fulfill, he showed a hint of sadness in that look as when he saw the people who worked for him end up massacred. Within everything there was some trace of a certain humanity in a character as perverse as he was chilling.
Honestly, this seemed more like a scene purely to expand on how sociopathic Lalo's character is. There wasn't any merit to a sociopath in doing this; the chances of these people who are extremely loyal to him, blabbing about him being alive, are just as if not far lower than their death leading to suspicion that he's alive. Sure the cops and whatnot can cover for him, but people talk, people have friends, and in this case, if a team of highly trained assassins got to his manor in the first place, chances are Gus has eyes and ears in the local police and area. Having a family nearby with prior relations to him suddenly get stabbed in their home is a big red flag. Just doesn't seem logical purely a sociopathic point of view.
He had them under his thunb specifically for this situation. The husband is a body double, and the wife is simply collateral damage. He probably has many more folks that live comfortably under his thumb that he can dispose of if needs be in a second.
Lalo was such a likable character I loved his humor….lalo told saul I need you to do something pick some money up for me saul goes ooo ok for a second I thought I was gonna be swallowing ballon’s full of heroin they Lalo laughs and goes nooo maybe later 😂😂😂

I like how Lalo only appeared in the last 2 seasons but left such an impression on the viewers. He is the scariest Salamanca by far
he also appeared and played a big role in the last episodes of season 4

Amen to that.
Can you imagine if he had been the big bad in season 5 of breaking bad.. Walter vs Lalo
He introduced him to his dentist just so he could have the same dental records. Kept a family alive so he'd have a body double. Insane.

Y de hecho lo fué, los mató ahí a sangre fría y usó el cuerpo del Mateo para hacer creer que estaba muerto. Lalo fué un personaje tan cruel y pudo transmitir bien esa simpatía psicopática que pude apreciar en el show entero. Bravo Vince !
👏👏👏
The subtle look on Lalo's face when the woman tells him they're going to have baby goats. He probably felt a little bad about them which is why he asked if the new ones were coming from elsewhere.
I think he was just making sure they weren't expecting a delivery of goats (which would mean visitors) anytime soon.
@@Yevdokiya Maybe both.
What’s worse Mateo died without knowing who ZZ Top is
I think Lalo sent Mateo to Zzzz...
?
Despite looking like he lives in a home out on la grange...
i remember watching this scene for the first time and when he shaved his beard to show lalo behind him my jaw dropped
Ironic that had Lalo not gone thru the trouble of leaving a body double, Hectors claims against Gus would’ve been much more believable
Nah Lalo needed a body double to move uninterrupted....
Remember Gus has no proof Lalo was alive he could tell just from hector looking at him and shaking his hand!
He just needed to talk to the twins.
i love how nonchalantly mateo shaves off a massive beard that probably took ages to grow out
i get the impression that Lalo had told Mateo earlier that he might need him to be a stand in for him some time, since he looks like him (a little bit). Notice how nonchalantly Mateo goes upstairs to shave off his beard.
@@laurenhahn101 He may have also just wanted to show respect by appearing more presentable to Lalo, as his wife said.
The fact that lalo had kept that man as a backup for him he got the exact dental record and then the hair
...okay, I finally just understood what this scene actually was
Was the guy Meteo aware of that?
I don't understand. Was he willing to die for this?
If not, how did he know to shave first?
@@NP1066 Iirc his wife told him to shave
@@noone-kk2zs
You don't just shave a beard that was years worth to groom, just because your wife casually tells you to shave.
It definitely looked like he knew he was expected to shave.
@@NP1066 his wife told him, but really it's about showing respect to Lalo
2:55 the face that he shows the world to hide who he truly is. 3:01 the real face of the sociopath underneath all the charm. 2:48 the face that hides his fate from his enemies
I don’t think Lalo took pleasure in doing this to these folks, but the man does whatever he has to do to win.
Of course he didn't
Already making excuses for him huh?
@@Onigirli Lalo cuck fanboys are a very toxic breed. They're the type that would probably vouch for a charismatic totalitarian dictator if he had a nice smile and manners xD
@@Onigirli no?? he didn’t like doing it, he just did it so he could fake his death. it’s just a fact, not an excuse.
@@Onigirli Yeah? He's a good guy that had to make sacrifices, Stfu 🤡
Lalo is my favorite villain in the Breaking Bad universe. He is like a perfect mix between Hans Landa and Anton Chigurh.
Great comparison
@@jeremytewari3346The Breaking Bad universe absorbs many influences
That slight change in his facial expression in the last second is chilling
Such great visual storytelling in this scene.
If you look closely, you can see that the man kept his mustache and his soul patch, because Lalo told him to just minutes prior. One of the millions of subtle albeit powerful nuances of the show. Bravo, Vince.
Truly one of the moments of Better Call Saul!
When i watched this scene on netflix for the first time i noticed that Mateo looks like Lalo after shaving .. but I could tell that this scene could have been less confusing for the audience ..
..
Perhaps Lalo shouldn't kill these two immediately .. he should ask Mateo to come with him because he needs some help at home then kill him .. that would make it clear that The burned body in the next scene was Mateo's ..
..
I mean it's obvious that many fans didn't get the concept of this scene : Lolo helped this poor couple a while ago only to use Mateo as a double in case he needed to fake his death ..
Makes sense, no one is going to care about a couple of dead farmers. They are replaceable like all peasants.
I think this is the exact scene where Bince Villigan showed us just how bad Lalo actually broke. Vravo Bince
"keep the mustache"
Take the cannoli
They need to make a show about Mike's early days and the Salamanca's rise to the top.
No one talks about how fast that man shaved his beard off lmaoo
hes a farmer with good work ethic. always on schedule
And this is why Nacho died a hero, helping taking them down
Truly the moment Lalo became Heisenberg
Mexicansenberg
Heisenbergo
Nah,the most chilling scene was when he asked Kim to put on shoes. Absolutely sickening.
Bob Odenkirk disliked that
I disagree. The worst thing he did was when was tapping on that fish tank
Now i'm just picturing Lalo sitting infront of his fireplace listening to ZZ Top lol
He looks like a nice guy, we all need a friend like him.
Lalo is a pure psycopath. He has hearded these people like cattle, though most ranchers feel for their livestock, Lalo don't.
Lalo felt bad about doing this. You can see it. Of course, he still did it.
This is the exact moment Lalo kindly helped a couple out!
2:41 just noticed how the stain in lalo's shirt switches from the right shoulder to the left one
Mirror?
2:55 me looking at the important npc that just insulted me as I wait for the "quicksaving..." prompt to end
This is the moment Lalo visited the couple in the mountain. Truly one of the moments of all time.
lol just stop with your nonsense right there, seriously. Sick and tired of that terrible meme you people keep doing here.
Truly a moment bravo Vince
@@z1p632 Stop, just stop.
Such tremendous detail in the writing. When the wife tells Lalo they now have two more goats, the audience immediately assumes there were two new goats born to the existing herd. Lalo has zero nurturing instinct so he misses the implication completely and assumes to new purchases were made from elsewhere and added to the herd. Such a small detail, but so revealing how the mind of a psychopath is different.
Probably reading a bit too deep into that
@@SaturnineXTS Actually no. The writers worked hard on BCS/BB.
Bro really pulled an among us
I remember this little mirror shot that made into the teaser of s6, u genuinely thought it would be some bigger baddie than or at lalo's level who will appear as a boss level character 😂
He didn't even have to go this far..he told his uncle that he was alive which made Gus find out he was alive. If lalo didn't make up this plan and faked his death, maybe the cartel would've believed Hector that Gus was the one who send mercenaries after lalo
This scene made me lose any admiration I had for Lalo! Those people treated him like a King and didn't ask any questions. I know he couldn't leave any witnesses but dang!!!
why would you have admiration for Lalo? He was a psychopath from the get-go, a charismatic one, but a psycho nonetheless.
Bro wanted Lalo to be a role model💀...
Did you miss or forget that in previus episoded he murdered an innocent boy?
He thought lalo was dark knight
1:11 IMO, This is the most terrifying shot of the series. It was infact this scene where I didn't feel his charisma. Lalo seemed totally unrecognisable and pure evil to me!
This is the moment when Mateo became Lalo Salamanca’s corpse
And when we saw that guy shaving himself in the teaser-trailer we all thought it'd be another Salamanca we didn't know yet. But we were so wrong...
Ological elevated this scene SO MUCH.
Visiting this clip because today is the day of the scape goat.
Lalo's foresight and plan here concerning the dental records remind me of "Charley Varrick," where Charley switches dental records with "Harmon," the killer played by Andy Robinson.
I always thought that was Christian Slater in the trailer and thought Lalo went to him for help and we were gonna see them v Gus. With Gus winning of course
Me too, I was like oh wow cool, Christian Slater is gonna be part of this final season. 😂
Bro didn’t like the coffee
At first I thought why would he kill them, then I realized he needed to stay "dead".
also made the guy look like him too, thats why he said keep the soul patch and why he was asking about the teeth
Ya´ll need to understand one thing, when he asks about the dentist - its because he paid the dentist to make his teeth just like Lalo has. In other scene someone examines the "dead lalo" and says that it matches with his dentist papers. Lalo was grooming that guy as his dead double for a long time...
My favourite villain apart from Walt and Gus in the whole BB/BCS universe. I wish he had more screen time
What kind of man keeps a doppelgänger around just for these kind of instances 😂
A man who plans three steps ahead of his enemies
They had a chicken farm but the whole time they was the chicken farm
*Breaking Bad was all about Walter but Better Call Saul was about Saul and Kim and Lalo and Gus and that's why it is the beter show, it has a solid story with so many highly likeable characters and what's best! No Skylar!*
Knowing what we do of him, Lalo seems genuinely regretful of having to kill them and likely made it as quick and painless as possible. And didn't hesitate for a second.
That makes him so much more frightening.
Don’t think he felt bad or remorse. He just didn’t take pleasure from it.
If you know he wasn't remorseful.
You know you command respect when people shave for your unannounced arrival
pporly written scene, like who would come out of the woods and directly go the bathroom because some boss-like figure like Lalo came to see them...that too a beard that would years to grow.
Why does Lala knowing ZZ Top make me like him more
*It was very nice of Lalo to help his friend shave*
We need Lalo spin off movie
No, we don't.
I prefer these subtle details.
When Lalo suddenly stops being super nice and cracking jokes every 2 seconds you know you're going to die
This is truly the moment that Mateo became Dusty Hill
finger
I think he actually felt bad just look how he smiles at the end
I didn't really get the significance of the scene when I saw it the first time. I knew Lalo did the murders. But it was only until after the episode in which Gus has to speak to Don Eladio. That it dawns on me.
I would like to think the woman didn't get killed. She was so sweet. Reminds me of my mom or my aunties. But that is wishful thinking...
Oh she'd be the first to go. Don't need women like that.
Vince you did it again!
Don’t care what anyone says if lalo was in bb walt jr and skylar would’ve been in a body bag from the moment tuco was dead
Of the few occasions in which Lalo did not feel comfortable with murdering someone, although for him that family had a purpose to fulfill, he showed a hint of sadness in that look as when he saw the people who worked for him end up massacred. Within everything there was some trace of a certain humanity in a character as perverse as he was chilling.
He really pulled off the escobar feel, if you talked to him in public you'd think he was just some happy uncle, but if you did him wrong....
As Lalo coming into the house you can see the goat also stepped into it, which signature the devil. Bravo Vince
Don Eduardo was one of a kind.
Honestly, this seemed more like a scene purely to expand on how sociopathic Lalo's character is. There wasn't any merit to a sociopath in doing this; the chances of these people who are extremely loyal to him, blabbing about him being alive, are just as if not far lower than their death leading to suspicion that he's alive. Sure the cops and whatnot can cover for him, but people talk, people have friends, and in this case, if a team of highly trained assassins got to his manor in the first place, chances are Gus has eyes and ears in the local police and area. Having a family nearby with prior relations to him suddenly get stabbed in their home is a big red flag.
Just doesn't seem logical purely a sociopathic point of view.
He had them under his thunb specifically for this situation. The husband is a body double, and the wife is simply collateral damage. He probably has many more folks that live comfortably under his thumb that he can dispose of if needs be in a second.
Lalo was such a likable character I loved his humor….lalo told saul I need you to do something pick some money up for me saul goes ooo ok for a second I thought I was gonna be swallowing ballon’s full of heroin they Lalo laughs and goes nooo maybe later 😂😂😂
This is an amazing scene.
Best villain in this series 😅
From the moment he enters the show late in season 4 he is a tornado that blows all the leaves apart and causes havoc.
