Despite a questionable record of television successes, Better call Saul has proven to be a worthy successor to Breaking bad. Like that show that came before, Better call Saul It is a fascinating look at a somewhat ordinary person who finds himself increasingly involved in a dangerous world.
Since many of the show’s characters lean more toward villains than heroes, violence often erupts, sometimes in broad daylight. In some cases, the killing comes out of nowhere and cannot be prevented, and in other cases, those who commit the killing simply show that they are not worried about being caught.

While there are many intimidating people in Better call Saul, Salamanca’s cousins have to be among the most ruthless. Even when outnumbered, these cousins will put themselves in danger like a pair of Terminators.

Arturo underestimates Fring and tries to put him in his place. That ends up being a bad idea, as Gus ties a paper bag to Arturo’s head and lets him suffocate.
Fring then tells Nacho that he works for him now and helps organize the scene to explain Arturo’s death. In the middle of the day, on the side of the road, Fring’s men shoot Nacho’s car, shoot Arturo’s body, and even shoot Nacho in the arm to make it look credible.

Meanwhile, Jaws is still out there, waiting for an opportunity to get the money from them. With the severe heat and no water, Saul decides to make a risky move. He goes out into the open field on the desert road so Shark can see him. While trying to run over Saul, Mike shoots him, causing his car to overturn.
two Ximenez Lecerda
While Mike is generally doing bad things for the right reasons, there are times when he doesn’t seem to fully think about the consequences of his actions. For example, stealing Héctor Salamanca’s truck does hurt Héctor, but ultimately, it is the driver who pays.
