Better Call Saul’ is inching toward its conclusion and the last week’s episode just made every gasp. Since the beginning, the AMC series has been providing viewers with mouth-watering content and extraordinary sequences. However, the sixth and final season of ‘Better Call Saul’ left every shell-shocked by the death of Lalo Salamanca (Tony Dalton). It’s been almost a week since the moment arrived on our screens, but fans are still unable to deal with the fact that one of the show’s prominent villains has died even though there are five episodes remaining in the final season.

With Lalo and Howard dead, what lies ahead for Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) and Kim Wexler (Rhea Seehorn)? The couple had their hearts in their mouths when Lalo chose them to kill Gus Fring (Giancarlo Esposito). He tied Saul to a chair and followed Kim as she went to kill the owner of the Los Pollos Hermanos. Even though Lalo managed to find Gus and his secret hideout, he couldn’t finish the task of killing Gus and instead, was hit by a bullet by the drug kingpin.

Mike tells Saul and Kim that Lalo won’t be coming back now and tells them to go ahead with the day as they do in their daily lives. Well, it’s not easy when you have seen someone get murdered in your house and you know that it changes your life completely. The upcoming episode of the AMC show will be all about Saul and Kim dealing with the aftermath of the terrifying deaths of Howard and Lalo. These deaths will fundamentally change the future of the story.

However, Gus and Mike might have a different approach to Lalo’s death. Gus knows that a war with other drug kingpins will prove to be lethal. With Lalo and Nacho dead, it’s the perfect time to have some shocking friendships. If you are one of those, who think that Gus or Mike will be dead, then you are horribly wrong. These characters are two of the pivotal characters in the ‘Breaking Bad’ universe and the upcoming episode of ‘BCS’ might shed a light on how they remained alive.

But there might be a good confrontation between Gus and Saul as well. I mean, Kim did go to Gus’s house and tried killing him. So, he might discuss that with Saul and even threaten him to stay back or he’ll kill his wife. At some point, they would have to pay the price of their deeds and it might be the reason for Kim’s demise.
