Who Is Lalo On ‘Better Call Saul’? This Character Referenced In ‘Breaking Bad’ Is Going To Cause Major Trouble For Nacho

After everything he has already been through in Season 4, it's a relief to see that Nacho Varga is alive and (kind of) well in the Better Call Saul episode "Coushatta." Spoilers follow. But another reason to be nervous for Nacho's wellbeing is introduced when Lalo appears on Better Call Saul. The people behind Better Call Saul had already teased that this character referenced in Breaking Bad would show up in Season 4. He never physically appeared onscreen in the original series, but Lalo was a major part of Saul Goodman's introduction to the universe. So while Lalo only shows up briefly in "Coushatta," he's surely going to cause a whole lot of trouble for Nacho and Gus Fring now that he has arrived.
Nacho has taken over running the Salamanca side of the drug cartel in "Coushatta." At the restaurant El Michoacáno, he sits in the enforcer seat once occupied by Tuco and Hector Salamanca. Viewers then get their first glimpse into Nacho's home life, discovering that he lives with two meth-addicted women in a fancy home. In his safe, he has two Canadian IDs for him and his father, so Nacho definitely has dreams of fleeing his life of working for the Mexican cartel and serving as a double agent for Gus. But Nacho's dreams are complicated yet again at the end of the episode.

But Nacho's dreams are complicated yet again at the end of the episode.
Besides Domingo (better known as "Krazy-8," who Walter kills in Breaking Bad Season 1), Nacho finds a new person hanging out in the kitchen of El Michoacáno. This man is a member of the Salamanca family and introduces himself as Eduardo "but you can call me Lalo." He tells Nacho, "I'm just here to lend a helping hand, you know, make sure the business is running in order." But Nacho knows it won't be as simple as all that. Especially since Nacho is now a plant for Gus after Nacho attempted to kill Hector in the Season 3 finale.
Like Nacho, Lalo was mentioned during Saul's first episode in Breaking Bad — Episode 8 of Season 2, called "Better Call Saul." Jess and Walt abduct Saul and the lawyer is worried that this is the end for him. "No, it wasn't me. It was Ignacio. He's the one," Saul pleads before switching over to Spanish. When Jesse orders him to speak in English, Saul asks, "Lalo didn't send you?" And when Jesse says no, an extremely relieved Saul replied, "Oh, thank god
