I agree with CNS that it's not really Gus's style. On the other hand, maybe Gus doesn't want to reveal his identity to Mike.

Would it be a new character then?  Doubt it's anyone in the show already?

I love this show.  I really really need to watch Breaking Bad before season 3 starts.

My first thought was that it was Nacho, but he was in the red shirt down by the house, right?  If thats true, then it has to be Gus.  You kinda forget that Gus was this man-behind-the-curtain/dues ex machina character for the first few Breaking Bad seasons before he actually appeared on screen so a note like that is totally Gus.

I may be weird on this, but Saul and Gus are probably my favorite BB characters.

I actively rooted for Gus over Walter. He and Mike are badasses.

Gus was a reasonable guy. Walt was a greedy bad person

If Gus comes back...   :love:

Also, I thought that scene was going to show how Hector ended up in a wheelchair unable to speak.  I really thought Mike was going to pull the trigger.

Is Nacho also working for Gus?  How else would Gus know about Mike?

So, I am assuming that Gus isn't a kingpin locally yet.  I mean, Nacho is obvsly getting the drugs he and Tuco sell from Hector.  Hector being wheelchair bound has to be the rise of Gus, since Tuco was selling Gus's drugs in BB.  Gotta think the Mike and Gus thing comes from COLUSION against Hector as a win/win for Gus and Mike.  Gus gets the region as the new supplier, and Mike gets the threat of Hector away from him and his fam.  That all said, I am pretty sure Tuco mentioned Hector having a stroke when Hector was introduced in BB, not being shot.   :dunno:

Thinking through it, Gus could be the note leaver.  Gus may want what Mike wants but may have a better scenario for it to happen under.

Can confirm from watching the after show, that even the writers have no clue where this thing is going.

We'll see Jessee eventually, but they are probably going to have to set up Tuco's whole operation first, including Crazy 8. I doubt they would bring Walter White into the picture until they are getting bored and want to introduce some more comic relief.

I bet they do but it will be something in passing like he's watching with Jesse in the background across a scene.

Howard was walking with Kim through the office, passing by cubicles, copiers, etc. and was just completely expressionless. Then, the instant that they crossed the threshold into the public area and conference room, he was all warm and smiley. Even considering that he now hates Kim, that was creepy.

That's because Howard is a creep. Pure and simple.

Of course he is. That guy's been a creep since he was a professor at Cal U. and he was scamming on a first-semester freshman Kelly Kapowski. Professor Lasky knew there was precious little Zack and the gang could do about it too, because they were just cretinous little freshmen and he was an accomplished head-stuffer. I mean sure, the guys could've tried to utilize the brute strength of their RA Bob Golic to help win Kelly back, but that's nothing compared having to the brain of a cultural anthropology professor. Guy's been a creep since the very first day of classes, no surprise that he would continue being that way after changing careers and moving to the Land of Enchantment.

The whole deal with the Cartel twins threatening Mike's family makes me realize he must have really enjoyed putting down the second twin when he was in the hospital after the shootout with Hank
