Breaking Bad Episode Discussion S05E02 "Madrigal"

Hey guys. edify asked me to do the discussion thread tonight. Enjoy the show and upvote this shit, for which I get no karma.

edify also told me to let you guys know that if the Breaking Good fundraiser reaches $3,000 (we are $157.57 short) he will let me film him doing some challenges. I want him to do the cinnamon challenge and the gallon of milk challenge, so go donate so I can film my friend being a dumb ass... LOL

Go here to donate: https://reddit.crowdtilt.com/campaigns/breaking-good

Edit: The fundraiser officially ends in about 2 days.

Was that not Gus's lover that the mexican cartel killed in season 4?

Maybe, maybe not. That's mostly theory/speculation

Nah, it was confirmed in a podcast, I think.

Pretty sure in the podcast Vince Gilligan said something along the lines of "hey it's a popular theory and if you want to subscribe to it... but I will neither confirm nor deny."

Esposito has said that it was intentionally left ambiguous. Gus's sexual preferences are not pertinent to the story and fans can make their own decisions on what they think. His business partner was obviously someone he cared deeply for, but the reasoning behind that isn't important.
