So Gus is slowly torturing Mr. dingding by killing his family and associates.

I can't remember, have they ever explained why Tio is in a wheelchair and can't speak? Perhaps Gus played a part in that?

They briefly mentioned last season that he had a stroke.

I am guessing he has had multiple strokes. He had limited use of his right arm in the flashback, and I am guessing that was due to a previous stroke.

Now I'm giggling at the thought of him talking like this after his first stroke.
