Hector Salamanca

Walt needs to find out where Gus is going to be because he has a special plan.

Hector Salamanca comes back out of the blue and leaves with a bang.

And then Gus fixes his tie on the way out.

This is season four, episode 12 and 13 of No More Half Measures, End Times and Face Off.

We talked about Saul coming above ground.

There was a meeting between Saul and Walt where he told him about Hector.

About how Jesse told him about Hector Salamanca and how they were enemies, not friends.

You know what I mean? Gus was actually enemies with Hector.

Let me tell you, Corey's not even close to being fucking Pinkman.

Or he's like that disabled old bloke, fucking Hector Salamanca, whatever his fucking name is.

He's sitting there fucking

ringing his bell.

All right, now we have another quick meeting, and it's this rainy night outside, later, late at night.

Hector is meeting with Fring and all of their people, and Nacho is sitting in the back, watching Hector like a hawk, obviously.

Mm-hmm.

A call comes in, and it's from their friend by the pool, so I know they're not going to say Eladio's name on that.

Long story short, they really like all the arrangements that are being done through Gus Fring.

They think they're making tons of money, and from now on, that's how it's gonna be.

And Hector loses his mind.

He is so angry, and it's even worse when, um, Gus Fring says something like, you know, "I didn't ask for this, and I don't want it." And it's, oh, man, Hector's so angry.

I didn't watch either until after the pandemic.

It was jarring to me seeing Don Eladio as Tony's best friend and Hector Salamanca as the mute driver for that one job in Scarface.

I instantly recognized them and it immediately reminded me of how many Goodfellas actors were in The Sopranos.

Just curious to see if Rich and Spike recognize him on the first go around since Moe said he just noticed on this rewatch.

I guess being king of breadsticks doesn't get you far in the drug game.

RIP Vito and Maximo.

Uh... thanks for the email or the comment key or yes i definitely recognize actually when we were doing the rewatch um i don't think it dawned on me that that was uh manolo until most said it i knew that that was him and i knew i definitely remember uh hector salamanca being the driver And it's been years since I watched Scarface Scarface low key That can be in the conversation I was about to say that can be in the conversation One of the most overrated films Way too long It was a box office flop It's just way too Wait who

was Manolo Who was it

So it's just, oh, all the conspiracies.

All the conspiracies, but I do think Mike thinks that a world without Hector Salamanca would be a much better place.

Oh, God, yeah, absolutely, yeah.

Now, one thing that was going on was Kim was talking to her boss, and her boss had given her a congratulations of how the case with Chuck went.
