So my question after thinking about the ending series is....


Who was Gus? Why was he spared and his partner killed

The drug lord mentioned something about "knowing who he is" and "not in Chili anymore". It makes me think he had very powerful friends back home, very powerful. I think that is the only direction season 5 can go in really.

In season 3 Hector also refers to Gus as 'Big Generalissimo' so he may have been a very powerful military figure.

I think you (Kencorp) are thinking way too hard there, and there's no way that that's "the only direction season 5 can go in".

Take a look at the flashback where Gus and his partner meet the cartel boss. Gus doesn't look like some seasoned military veteran or a big figure in Chile's drug business. He looks like a guy who's in way over his head (which he is).

Obviously he'll have some (criminal) background. Maybe he did some shit in Chile, who knows. But the Cartel probably only let him live because he was useful to them and because they saw a way to use his fast food chain as a distribution / laundering operation. Gus was an asset, and the Cartel runs a business, so they'll try to make the best use of him.

Your smug attempt at invalidating my argument by asking an innocent, yet troubling question failed horribly, just fyi.

Mike will certainly play his part in season 5, no doubt about that. Right now, he's somewhere in Mexico, recovering from injuries. And after that, he'll probably come back and vow revenge or work for Walt. Who knows. But for all we know right now, he was just Gus' guy for the dirty work and in no way related to his past.

LOL, you're over-analysing my comments, you seemed to have picked up on something I may have missed, I'm merely asking you about Mike as you come across as a knowledgeable fellow member of the audience , yet I'm left bitterly disappointed with your condescending response.

Sorry then for my harsh reply. I just came from a rather unpleasant discussion from Reddit and was a bit loaded; I didn't mean to take it out on you.

Apologies for that.

As for Mike, let's see what he's up to in S5 .

Gus was not killed because of who he is not because what he can offer the drug cartel. Rewatch the scene again. It is clearly stated that Gus is kept alive because of SOMETHING in chili. I assumed he had connections but I never said he was a general or a seasoned drug lord. Just that even the drug cartel thought twice about killing him.

This is also referenced in the episode in season four with the flashback to the assassin brothers and their uncle. He refers to the south american as a general. Perhaps he was part of a previous dictatorship in chile.
