That’s the part that never made much sense to me. Hector didn’t seem like a very tactical guy. More like walk up and shoot somebody point blank. Maybe in his younger years who knows. Or someone else trained them.

I mean, what even is a trained hit man? Where did they train? You can’t just go to hit man school. Presumably they’ve killed before, they’re “professionals,” they know basic weapon handling and room clearing, but finding anyone “professional” a whole squad of people who are willing to do a job like this and keep quiet about it wouldn’t be easy. Most of the money would go towards the willingness, professionalism, and the keeping quiet; not necessarily being “professionally accredited and trained.” Just finding half a dozen strong men with good equipment who are willing and able to work in a team to commit violent crime and navigate the criminal underworld well enough to do so professionally would be worth a TON.

@@ididntmeantoshootthatvietn5012 then why isn't he just outside looking for lalo? The tunnel is a straight line, so it's not that hard to figure out where he is going
@@leonpaelinck They just told him that Lalo was injured and couldn't be that far ahead. People don't normally take escape routes and then come back. Realistically, he would be lax because they failed to take out the target and he's less worried about badass returnery, and more worried about failure. Due to the information he received, it's more likely that Lalo is in the tunnel or right outside the tunnel. If Lalo somehow killed them in the tunnel than he would have to shoot down the tunnel himself.
I remember first time seeing this scene I was pissed at how bad these assassins were. Specifically when the 2 went down into the tunnel. Why would the guy up top be looking down rather than keeping an eye on the door? Sure maybe he'd still be dead but it would've made him look like he actually knows what he's doing
And the sudden full auto at the start of the fight, he could have just ran up to Lalo when he was crawling from the kitchen and put 2 rounds into his back
I mean (to be fair), the BB's/BCS's Universe is not exactly the most realistic one. Does it has quite realistic aspects? For sure. However, one could even argue that characters like Walt, Jesse, Saul had quite some plot armor throughout the series. The thing is that the writers ultimate objective got to be to entertain rather than to be realistic - like most videogames or movies, for example -. Also, I think it is worth adding that, in real life, things often don't go according to plan. Even the best professionals can make mistakes which could cost them their life. I personally think the writers tried to make Lalo's victory seem like a mix of preparation, luck (both good luck for Lalo and bad luck for the squad) and their intention to entertain the viewer
Think about it. Gustavo comes out of hiring a death squad against a Salamanca, with his relationship relatively intact. How would he be able to offer Hank to the cousins if the cousins knew that Gustavo tried to kill their family? *Familia es Todo* So I think, that Gustavo solely throws nacho Under the bus, coupled with Lalo noticing that nacho hadn't touched his alcohol. That's what his asset and final purpose is, the smokescreen for an attempted hit on a Salamanca. Something very drastic happens to both Lalo and Nacho. Lalo is almost certainly dead in season 6
The relationship was hardly intact. Lalo ordered one of his restaurants to be burned and his dealings interrupted. Lalo knows Gus ordered the hit but Nacho was in on it. If anything Gus is not to be touched and the cousins know this. Just like how they initially didnt go after Hank because he was DEA and was not to be touched until Gus allowed it.
I realize this video is three years old, but perhaps someone can clear this up for me. This was a great scene, but lalo holding the gun like that and managing to target them at all seems off to me. He was holding it with two hands so keeping ahold of it does seem possible, but even with the swaying shown, it seems like he'd be hitting the walls more than anything, and they are a good ways down the tunnel. I guess it wouldn't take many bullets to reach them, but still it must have been difficult to shoot any of them straight, and how many would it even take? How many were in the clip? Idk maybe some firearm aficionados would know more than me, still a great scene though.
Lalo is lucky Gus didn’t hire the 2 best hit men west of the Mississippi

1:36 I love this scene,pure perfection from the actor
Lol looks Lalo is the one who is the cucaracha, being able to live after 5 assassins come after him
I love the show but this part had characters as skilled as the military strategists from GoT S8.
exactly
at least the ones with poor strategy are the ones that lose
Imagine if Walt and Jesse met Lalo instead of Tuco. Maybe two seasons long lol.
When lalo picked up the frying hot pan
Me : " ohh god someone is gonna have some bad bad burns. "
The music in this scene is top notch. Bravo Dave
Well what’s the name of the track!?!
Lalo Wick
Lalo was the most bad-ass character in all of the BB series.
I thought Gus said he hired professionals. I wouldn't put this squad up against mil sim airsofters.
Bad Writing.
Lalo is the Trevor of better call Saul, he even looks like him
Funny since Trevor is in Better call Saul, two appearances haha
@@teopazdrijan1008 wait when?
@@Taha4816. the guy hired to help pryce as a bodyguard with a ton of guns that Mike bullied and beat up. He also was hired by Saul but wasn’t as good as huell so they dropped him too.
My godddd stfu with your corny video game references
I was rooting for Lalo in this scene. Such a boss
Lol facts. Now that I realize it, Lalo was nothing but fair and nice to Nacho. He knew Nacho was a hard worker and even took him to meet Don Eladio to get promoted! I used to be on Nachos side but Im kinda rooting for Lalo now
@@billblaski9523 it's not nachos fault he had to betray lalo, gus had his family at gunpoint and ready to strike whenever nacho doesn't do what gus wants
@@billblaski9523 did you watch the show? The only reason nacho’s even still in the game is because gus is holding his father hostage, you’d think someone who explicitly said “i want out” multiple fucking times would attempt to kill one of the salamancas?
Does everyone realize Lalo could've easily closed the tub/entrance to his escape hatch, and been safe? He instead in that moment made a tactical decision to not only kill his attackers. But also the best way to go about it! Speaks volumes about the type of character Lalo Salamanca is!
I think he did it because he needed to have all the attackers dead so that he could fake his death to get the upper hand on gus
No shit, it is almost like the writers wanted for Lalo to act like Lalo.
That was total Hollywood. Real soldiers aren't that stupid.
@@dickriggles942y they weren't Soldiers, they were hitmen
@@g.k.4710It's a TV show, stop trying to rationalize it. Who do you think many hitmen were? Many of those cartels are trained by military who were trained by the US military.
Crazy how when lalo is getting close to death, you can hear the sound of tucos car shaking from breaking bad when he died
This episode is up there with Ozymandias
This scene was wacky. I was half expecting the pan to go "boink!" when it hit the gunman
I fucking love Dave Porter
just out of this world cinematography
Bravo Vince!!!!
The plain "esta bien, yo si se" at the end is just so demonic
I love that crawling scene, cinematicly perfect
looking this video up i got spoiled by search suggestions
The tunnel scene is one of my favorites. Really rooting for this guys revenge. Ugggh soooo good.
3:53 i hear the exact same stock sound effecf the m60 made in breaking bad
I could only imagine seeing this live, that ending to this season was a punch in the gut.
The soundtrack in this scene is awesome
Lalo went full Juan Wick on those guys
I got this clip recommended, and decided to come back to comment
Just how amazing this show really was
I just finished the finale, I don't think I've ever been emotional from an ending of a series before, this marks the end of an Era
Possibly the best Era of television ever created
I hope this shows legacy lives on for the end of humanity 🙏 ❤️
Let's not ignore the impeccable music used in this scene
The music fits well in this scene
Lalo's like IM GOING AROUND... ehh ehh ehh nacho where are you? Nacho where are you? :)
3:07 WHY IS HE LOOKING IN THE TUNNEL? HE'S SUPPOSED TO STAND GUARD
He probably thought that lalo ran away and didn't come back
@@ididntmeantoshootthatvietn5012 then why isn't he just outside looking for lalo? The tunnel is a straight line, so it's not that hard to figure out where he is going
@@leonpaelinck i don't know im not Vince Gilligan
@@leonpaelinck he thought there may be another person's alive ,they would come to fight . So he guarded the tub cause it's open.
@@leonpaelinck They just told him that Lalo was injured and couldn't be that far ahead. People don't normally take escape routes and then come back. Realistically, he would be lax because they failed to take out the target and he's less worried about badass returnery, and more worried about failure. Due to the information he received, it's more likely that Lalo is in the tunnel or right outside the tunnel. If Lalo somehow killed them in the tunnel than he would have to shoot down the tunnel himself.
The fact that Lalo thought all this was Jimmy's plan

Esa escena estuvo terrible buena loco , YA NO PUEDO ESPERAR LA TEMPORADA 6
You're Goddamn right (heisenberg's voice)
I remember first time seeing this scene I was pissed at how bad these assassins were. Specifically when the 2 went down into the tunnel. Why would the guy up top be looking down rather than keeping an eye on the door? Sure maybe he'd still be dead but it would've made him look like he actually knows what he's doing
Yeah I found the scene very frustrating. There was no way Lalo survives a surprise attack on his own.
Bad writing.
And the sudden full auto at the start of the fight, he could have just ran up to Lalo when he was crawling from the kitchen and put 2 rounds into his back
@@dalisllama unrealistic writing, not necessarily bad writing
I mean (to be fair), the BB's/BCS's Universe is not exactly the most realistic one. Does it has quite realistic aspects? For sure. However, one could even argue that characters like Walt, Jesse, Saul had quite some plot armor throughout the series. The thing is that the writers ultimate objective got to be to entertain rather than to be realistic - like most videogames or movies, for example -. Also, I think it is worth adding that, in real life, things often don't go according to plan. Even the best professionals can make mistakes which could cost them their life. I personally think the writers tried to make Lalo's victory seem like a mix of preparation, luck (both good luck for Lalo and bad luck for the squad) and their intention to entertain the viewer
Soundtrack and him crawling through tunnel is incredible
Think about it. Gustavo comes out of hiring a death squad against a Salamanca, with his relationship relatively intact. How would he be able to offer Hank to the cousins if the cousins knew that Gustavo tried to kill their family? *Familia es Todo*
So I think, that Gustavo solely throws nacho Under the bus, coupled with Lalo noticing that nacho hadn't touched his alcohol. That's what his asset and final purpose is, the smokescreen for an attempted hit on a Salamanca. Something very drastic happens to both Lalo and Nacho. Lalo is almost certainly dead in season 6
I agree with you Lalo no doubt he will die in the next season.
The relationship was hardly intact. Lalo ordered one of his restaurants to be burned and his dealings interrupted. Lalo knows Gus ordered the hit but Nacho was in on it. If anything Gus is not to be touched and the cousins know this. Just like how they initially didnt go after Hank because he was DEA and was not to be touched until Gus allowed it.
if i knew i was sending a family to be killed i would’ve probably chugged that drink after LOL
This scene is absolutely ridiculous but at least it’s fun to watch
If only nacho told Lalo about Gus and his plans. He might have made it out alive.
Love the music
1:36 This is the best shot out of both BB and BCS
Solo vs squad
I realize this video is three years old, but perhaps someone can clear this up for me. This was a great scene, but lalo holding the gun like that and managing to target them at all seems off to me. He was holding it with two hands so keeping ahold of it does seem possible, but even with the swaying shown, it seems like he'd be hitting the walls more than anything, and they are a good ways down the tunnel. I guess it wouldn't take many bullets to reach them, but still it must have been difficult to shoot any of them straight, and how many would it even take? How many were in the clip?
Idk maybe some firearm aficionados would know more than me, still a great scene though.
The man's too competent.
