@@BrassBashers that Jesse ending in El Camino was so satisfying. The way he was at the end of season 5 all the way to the finale of Breaking Bad was so heartbreaking. It’s like he escaped that horrible situation but you didn’t know what happened with him next and you’d just expect the worse.
Jesse's nervous energy is what did it. He got defensive when Tuco said "You don't trust me?" He needed to answer definitively, "I don't know you, I'm not floating 35g for a guy I just met. This is the best product on the market and you won't get more without cash up-front. That would be a bad business decision." If there's 1 thing Salamancas respect, it's people standing their ground
Man whenever Walt's actions ends up pissing off a violent person Jesse was always there to have the crap beaten out of him by them to satisfy their violent anger. mostly because he's always there at the wrong time or because he's associated with Walt
And it's still Jesse's fault. The point of his character is that, unlike Walt, he had more oppurtunity to "get out" than Walt did but LIKE walt he was also addicted to "the game"
@@notevenironicallyfunny204 funny thing is it can work but too many people end up blowing air into the stomach because they don't do it properly. Just use chest compressions until the emts can intubate.
Vince could probably make a spin off show about any of his characters and I'd watch it in a heartbeat, but I think it would be pretty cool to do one on Tuco. He is such an interesting character you just can't help but feel a tension whenever there is a scene with him because you have no idea what the hell he is going to do.
@@masterknife8423 that has to be complete cap his performance as Tuco is full of energy in BB. Not sure about BCS since I only saw 2 episodes he's in but still he definitely brings alot of effort into it
He spent his time in prison before that. Aside from tuco, the salamanca family in general is a good spin off but will become boring since they are a straightforward thinkers. Saul is the best choice for vince, i hope that they reveal what happened to him in the future when he is working at cinnabon and got abducted.
The crazy thing is, Tuco is literally the catalyst of both shows. If he didn't threaten Jimmy and the twins and beat No Doze to death, than it is very unlikely that the rest of the events would have transpired.
@@alexalvarez6850Tuco not threatening Jimmy and the twins would lead to Nacho and Lalo not knowing who he is, Then when krazy 8 got busted he wouldn't be a police informant because no jimmy, that would make the drug bust of Emilio non existent since Krazy 8 was the one who ratted him out to the DEA. And if Tuco hadn't killed No-Doze Walter would have made enough money for him and his family and he would have left the business
0:38 taco says "SAUL GOOD" this could be a reference to Vince Gilligan's hit TV show "BETTER CALL SAUL" and the main character SAUL GOODMAN AKA JAMES MCGILL AKA SLIPPIN JIMMY
Even if jesse fronted it to him, Tuco would have probably realized how fast it sells and would have been more than happy to pay him for it and for future pounds. Jesse could have played that cooler
Jesse also could've easily gotten screwed out of the money and never talked to again. Tuco isn't a rational person. There's also the issue of Walt. Jesse knew right then that Walt would've been *furious* if Jesse had just given the meth away for free.
Consignment was just a bullshit lie Tuco came up with so he could rob Jesse. If Jesse went along with it, Tuco would see him as weak and just screw him out of the money later. If he ever even talked to him again
I imagine Tuco would realize how fast and incredible the meth was. Would probably want another batch of it. I see two outcomes to this Either he gets skinny Pete to hit up Jesse again for another batch and gives him the money from the previous deal to get another batch. Or he simply kidnaps Jesse to learn where he got the meth from cuz Tuco did believe there was no way Jesse made that meth on his own.
The best thing Jesse could have done is stand his ground and insist, while somehow appealing to tucos ego. and even then he still couldn’t gotten the snot beating out him. But one constant with salamancas is that they respect balls, and standing on business. Jessie was still a man child stoner crash dummy at this point. Didn’t know how to play or read people, over idealistic, runs his mouth and says the wrong things, and tried to run away.
My favorite part is the subtle camera pan towards no doze and gonzos face of disappointment when Tuco takes another bump. It’s setting the tone about how he has a drug problem.
2:24 Nice uppercut by Tuco, you can see that he knows how to throw a mean one, he rotated his entire body passing the punch from the center of gravity, the pelvis, towards his shoulder through Jesse’s chin, clean KO, referee should’ve stopped it instantly. Though he turned his head with the punch, which is a mistake that he might’ve made due to underestimating Jesse rather than his lack of technique. Can’t wait for Tuco to fight Mike Tyson.
Lmao dude, this is the same thing i was thinking! "but.. he.. but he brought it for you to move.. he's going through you not behind your back wtf? dudes insane"
@@ParasiteEvel Jesse also tried to back out on Tuco. Tuco's saying it's a closed system. That anyone else you could possibly go through without reprisal works for or at least with Tuco. The beating was an example of what he could to do them if they tried to distribute with someone else. It's his way of demonstrating their stuck with him whether they like it or not.
What are people's opinions? Had Jesse said no problem and walked outta there, would tuco have paid? I think he would, tuco would value a supplier of that quality more than £35k.
Only after seeing how well it sold. He'd pay to get more. He might still have denied them money for the first batch though, saying something like "cost of doing business".
Okay, so... Skinny Pete genuinely thought Tuco was his friend after spending about a year (?) as his cellmate in prison. He was shocked when he started beating Jesse. But... even when Tuco was in crazy beatdown mode, he didn't lay a finger on Skinny Pete himself, even though he could've and in his mind probably had a reason to, for taking Jesse there. He merely gave him a look. No idea how, but Skinny Pete did the impossible and really managed to get on Tuco's good side and stay there.
I honestly think Tuco would have payed Jesse once the meth sold. Yes he was a psychotic freak but I actually think he was honest when it came to money lmao
The bait is that when you come back, then he beats you. Most likely that begins with, "I sold it for half, here's your cut". Then you have to argue from a disadvantaged position - because now you're arguing over street value and he cuffs you. You have to question his accounts - you catch a beat. You question its value and their ability to sell - you catch a beat. You question his integrity - you catch a beat. You argue that things were said a month ago that he argues weren't - you catch a beat. Worse, he likely double or tripled his profits by watering it down and now your product has no street value because nobody has ever REALLY tried it. He can lowball you forever selling your product sub-par at half its value. You disagree about it's true value - you catch a beat. Worse, and a lot worse, a big chunk of it went up his nose for zero profit... the next time they saw him he'd be a crazed wild man. You have to rationalize that Tuco also is just fishing for violence, he's rationalizing reasons to get violent with you. People enjoy this, they enjoy power, they enjoy inflicting fear, uncertainy and doubt. Jesse was super brave and hyper rational here - Tuco could barely resist his instincts to subvert. You assert what it's worth and you take your licks. Tuco's trying to beat down your value so you devalue yourself and what your product is worth. This isn't just a business tactic, or a thug tactic, it's a life tactic. People don't want to feel like they're at a disadvantage and admit the truth - your crystal is better. Worse, it's the best. This is why later when Tuco is negotiating with Walt, and Walt blows the roof off, it's the first thing Tuco admits as the truth. Admitting someone has premium product means demeaning your own meth cooks, business and lifestyle which feels terrible. It's an act of humility and most people juuuust hate that. Especially those who built their business on pride - and Tuco's pride as a Salamanca has been wildly in question. It isn't until Walter comes in and takes the exchange over the top, and gives Tuco a reason to walk away with respect (everyone saw that explosion) does it all change. Walt thought this was an act of dominance but the truth is, Tuco respects violence. They'd earned his respect. You can't dominate people - it's not how business works. Ironically this is a treatise in self-respect. Jesse took a beat, but even Jesse got some respect from Tuco for it. If it had been ONLY Walt this whole time, Tuco's issue with this exchange would have been Walt's massive ego and likely, Tuco would've been all smiles and nods for ages before he simply captured Walt and forced him to do whatever Tuco wanted. Jesse shows that their team has some humility - and Tuco's respect is earned by both of them. Not just any one. Jesse might've had to catch a beat to accomplish this, but had it been Walt delivering meth every time eventually Tuco would've beat him up just because Walt wears a stupid hat. It would've been as simple as that - eventually Tuco would've killed Walt. Subtly this is why Walt let Jesse go. He knew this would happen, he always knew - he used Jesse as a frontman for this reason. Jesse keeps the operation going far longer than anyone gives him credit for. Not just until Gus, but long after. To put this in perspective, for the abused and downtrodden - violence is an act of intimacy. For many, they only know violence as a means of communication and interpersonal growth. Jesse making a run for it, playing it cool, and catching a beat sucked --- but when Walt comes in later and nearly blows the place to hell, they don't kill him outright because Jesse laid the groundwork. Had they beaten up Walt, would he have been able to deal with Tuco later in this way? Nope, he would've blown the place to hell. Jesse catching a beat from Tuco sucks, but people respect your ability to get hit - not dish them out. Tuco softened after Jesse. It sucks for Jesse big time because I'm certain Tuco knows how to hit - and most people have never experienced a true street gang style beat down. Tuco's no punk, he's a Salamanca who's been in prison, they teach you how to hit there. I imagine Jesse was wincing for weeks after this engagement... but Jesse's humility, and ability to understand the terrifying truth and remain brave throughout far exceeded Walt's skills. It was always Jesse who kept these operations together. Audacity in criminal behavior is a necessity - and as such tends to lead to its inevitable end. Tuco's going to push as far as he can because that's the nature of the business. Jesse's bravery and humility were what made everything work. Even Gus neglected Jesse's value for a long time until he really "saw it". Humility was not one of Gus's virtues - he treated it like camouflage but it always tired him. It's why he was always so audacious whenever he got the chance to be. Jesse's the real deal. The key here is to remember how Jimmy / Saul handled a similar situation. Tuco lived and died by respect. An interesting character point about Tuco is that he not only let Jimmy off the hook - he listened to Jimmy when it came to dealing out punishment. Tuco commands respect but he's wild for it. He's rabid for it. He even holds it in his hands with a literal embodiment. Tuco's preferred weapon in Better Call Saul? "Taurus Raging Judge". That's no coincidence, that's who Tuco's meant to be. Nacho is terrified of Tuco because deep down, Nacho hasn't realized that he deserves judgment. I like Nacho, he's the man, but he's been a man on the run for years - but not from the Cartel. He's on the run from his father, who he cannot shed himself of, who he cannot reason with, who he cannot protect from his inevitable fate. Nacho runs into oblivion just trying to get away from that - and it's why Tuco barely even acknowledges Nacho's existence and nearly shoots him by accident. If you don't respect yourself, Tuco will walk all over you until you do. You can't just fear Tuco, you need to respect him. Fear is a kind of respect, but Tuco wants you to respect yourself. When challenged, Jesse relies on the product he's carrying, he turns to skinny pete for backup, he references principles - he never stands up to Tuco. "We don't do business that way" also cites your friend, but "we" isn't there. Right now Jesse needs to stand up. When Jesse defers to the product, Tuco holds up his own product - then beats him with it. How hard does a bag of money hit? How fast? Jesse took the hit LONG before Tuco started swinging because that's what Jesse's used to. When the cops sweat Jesse is he going to roll over the same way? When competitors challenge him? This is what Tuco wants to know. He can't work with anyone who can't stand up when it counts... and worse... Jesse's brave as can be. He just doesn't know who he is. Jesse's only flaw is he doesn't respect himself and Tuco smells it. It reeks. Walt doesn't respect Jesse until the absolute very end, and even then it's a fleeting moment before Walt dies - the ultimate forced act of humility. Tuco, when going up against Mike, see's this and ends up in Jail for it, but if you want to look at it another way - the happiest you will ever see Tuco is right before he beats the tar out of Mike. To Tuco a beat is an act of respect, an opportunity. This is why he's constantly hitting people on the back - it's an act of familiarity. He gets one from Walt, gives one to Jesse - but after, they're all on the same page. The time you should be afraid of someone violent is when they tell you a deep, personal, and intimate story... because for many violent people, intimacy and violence are one in the same. Tuco doesn't do that here, but just a tip to the wise. It'll always come to violence the more you get to know these people, because that's how the cycle grows forever. Tuco may have had principles - but one of them is this.
I love how Gonzo and No Doze are silently critiquing Tuco's beating of Jesse. "Let's see. We have a half-Salamanca element with money sack as accessory. He's applying moderate force, while still leaving marks and intimidation. What is Tuco saying here? I believe this is an initiation beatdown, meant to signify the pain and suffering in this world, while also presenting Tuco as "The Artist" who wields his brush - in this case a sack with rolled bills - to both create and accept the chaos of our mortal coils."
@@thenewadventuresofhenry6998 Except Mike was expecting a scuffle and not as a thorough beat down, plus the gun was the target, yet by Tuco’s brutality in the face of police approaching the scene, Mike got the extra
*physical abuse occurring on-screen* meanwhile in my head: "DAMN MAN LOOK AT THAT LOOK LOOK AT THAT LOOK D-D-DAMN MAN LOOK AT THAT LOOK LOOK AT THAT LOOK LOOK AT THAT LOOK"
2:29 Notice No-Doze is smiling while Jesse is getting the same treatment he would later receive and not survive while Gonzo sort of mildly nods along but not enjoying it.
Walter was in rush to make money before dying .. Always kept pushing Jessie and his friends to expand their business territory .. and thus endangering their lives .. This scene is one example .. the other one is an episode in season 2 titled ( peekaboo ) .. and the third one lead to the killing of his friend kombo ..
Funny how his henchman (no-doze I think) reacts when tuco uses meth, he doesnt seem pleased. It's almost like something could happen to him when tuco uses.
Well to be fair Jesse was acting scared, so Tuco sensed that and didnt hesitate to beat him. A lesson that can learn here is to stay non reactive and keep your cool, because anyone with a demeanor can smell blood in the water and wont hesitate to blow you out.
Wrong. This was an intimidation tactic, a power-move. He beat him even though he wasn't fighting back; he was making a point. "I own you now, that's how I do business, don't ever challenge me." Violence is how he gets down & he doesn't respond to challenges well..
In Gus lab, they used scientific devices to determine the purity of crystal, meanwhile, my man Tuco can determine purity by his nose.

Are you seriously telling this? Any stupid move would be a inevitable death trap.
Yes, he did. He took him to the hospital. If he spoke up, Tuco would beat him up, too, then no one would take them to the hospital.
Back when we thought Tuco was just another punk drug dealer, when in reality, he was a high level professional.
Whenever tuco threw the cash in a bag I always wondered if hes even really counting it or just eye balling
He probably counts the money when he puts it into stacks.
Each stack of cash is the same amount so just add it up by that
I thought he put a lot more than 35 gs in the bag so he had more mass to beat Jesse with it
Even if jesse fronted it to him, Tuco would have probably realized how fast it sells and would have been more than happy to pay him for it and for future pounds. Jesse could have played that cooler

@@ParasiteEvel Jesse also tried to back out on Tuco. Tuco's saying it's a closed system. That anyone else you could possibly go through without reprisal works for or at least with Tuco. The beating was an example of what he could to do them if they tried to distribute with someone else. It's his way of demonstrating their stuck with him whether they like it or not.
What are people's opinions?
Had Jesse said no problem and walked outta there, would tuco have paid?
I think he would, tuco would value a supplier of that quality more than £35k.
I'm not sure, if this was BCS Tuco then maybe but this Tuco was straight up high as a kite
Only after seeing how well it sold. He'd pay to get more. He might still have denied them money for the first batch though, saying something like "cost of doing business".
@@Zorak9595this is exactly what wouldve happened

“It’s all good “ by Tuco is always a threat
Okay, so... Skinny Pete genuinely thought Tuco was his friend after spending about a year (?) as his cellmate in prison. He was shocked when he started beating Jesse. But... even when Tuco was in crazy beatdown mode, he didn't lay a finger on Skinny Pete himself, even though he could've and in his mind probably had a reason to, for taking Jesse there. He merely gave him a look. No idea how, but Skinny Pete did the impossible and really managed to get on Tuco's good side and stay there.
This is the moment Tuco beats the piss out of Walt’s mule boy
I love how tuco has an office
Who is here after the Infinity War meme?
I honestly think Tuco would have payed Jesse once the meth sold. Yes he was a psychotic freak but I actually think he was honest when it came to money lmao
Tuco was a lot more reasonable in BCS. Extensive jail time and his meth addiction made him completely insane
He's a bully and a thieve, if Jessie came back again he would have put him in captivity or beaten him.
Fat chance of that
The bait is that when you come back, then he beats you. Most likely that begins with, "I sold it for half, here's your cut". Then you have to argue from a disadvantaged position - because now you're arguing over street value and he cuffs you. You have to question his accounts - you catch a beat. You question its value and their ability to sell - you catch a beat. You question his integrity - you catch a beat. You argue that things were said a month ago that he argues weren't - you catch a beat.
Worse, he likely double or tripled his profits by watering it down and now your product has no street value because nobody has ever REALLY tried it. He can lowball you forever selling your product sub-par at half its value. You disagree about it's true value - you catch a beat.
Worse, and a lot worse, a big chunk of it went up his nose for zero profit... the next time they saw him he'd be a crazed wild man.
You have to rationalize that Tuco also is just fishing for violence, he's rationalizing reasons to get violent with you. People enjoy this, they enjoy power, they enjoy inflicting fear, uncertainy and doubt. Jesse was super brave and hyper rational here - Tuco could barely resist his instincts to subvert.
You assert what it's worth and you take your licks. Tuco's trying to beat down your value so you devalue yourself and what your product is worth. This isn't just a business tactic, or a thug tactic, it's a life tactic. People don't want to feel like they're at a disadvantage and admit the truth - your crystal is better. Worse, it's the best. This is why later when Tuco is negotiating with Walt, and Walt blows the roof off, it's the first thing Tuco admits as the truth. Admitting someone has premium product means demeaning your own meth cooks, business and lifestyle which feels terrible. It's an act of humility and most people juuuust hate that. Especially those who built their business on pride - and Tuco's pride as a Salamanca has been wildly in question.
It isn't until Walter comes in and takes the exchange over the top, and gives Tuco a reason to walk away with respect (everyone saw that explosion) does it all change. Walt thought this was an act of dominance but the truth is, Tuco respects violence. They'd earned his respect. You can't dominate people - it's not how business works.
Ironically this is a treatise in self-respect. Jesse took a beat, but even Jesse got some respect from Tuco for it. If it had been ONLY Walt this whole time, Tuco's issue with this exchange would have been Walt's massive ego and likely, Tuco would've been all smiles and nods for ages before he simply captured Walt and forced him to do whatever Tuco wanted. Jesse shows that their team has some humility - and Tuco's respect is earned by both of them. Not just any one.
Jesse might've had to catch a beat to accomplish this, but had it been Walt delivering meth every time eventually Tuco would've beat him up just because Walt wears a stupid hat. It would've been as simple as that - eventually Tuco would've killed Walt.
Subtly this is why Walt let Jesse go. He knew this would happen, he always knew - he used Jesse as a frontman for this reason.
Jesse keeps the operation going far longer than anyone gives him credit for. Not just until Gus, but long after.
To put this in perspective, for the abused and downtrodden - violence is an act of intimacy. For many, they only know violence as a means of communication and interpersonal growth. Jesse making a run for it, playing it cool, and catching a beat sucked --- but when Walt comes in later and nearly blows the place to hell, they don't kill him outright because Jesse laid the groundwork. Had they beaten up Walt, would he have been able to deal with Tuco later in this way? Nope, he would've blown the place to hell. Jesse catching a beat from Tuco sucks, but people respect your ability to get hit - not dish them out.
Tuco softened after Jesse. It sucks for Jesse big time because I'm certain Tuco knows how to hit - and most people have never experienced a true street gang style beat down. Tuco's no punk, he's a Salamanca who's been in prison, they teach you how to hit there. I imagine Jesse was wincing for weeks after this engagement... but Jesse's humility, and ability to understand the terrifying truth and remain brave throughout far exceeded Walt's skills.
It was always Jesse who kept these operations together. Audacity in criminal behavior is a necessity - and as such tends to lead to its inevitable end. Tuco's going to push as far as he can because that's the nature of the business.
Jesse's bravery and humility were what made everything work. Even Gus neglected Jesse's value for a long time until he really "saw it". Humility was not one of Gus's virtues - he treated it like camouflage but it always tired him. It's why he was always so audacious whenever he got the chance to be. Jesse's the real deal.
The key here is to remember how Jimmy / Saul handled a similar situation.
Tuco lived and died by respect.
An interesting character point about Tuco is that he not only let Jimmy off the hook - he listened to Jimmy when it came to dealing out punishment. Tuco commands respect but he's wild for it. He's rabid for it. He even holds it in his hands with a literal embodiment. Tuco's preferred weapon in Better Call Saul? "Taurus Raging Judge". That's no coincidence, that's who Tuco's meant to be. Nacho is terrified of Tuco because deep down, Nacho hasn't realized that he deserves judgment. I like Nacho, he's the man, but he's been a man on the run for years - but not from the Cartel. He's on the run from his father, who he cannot shed himself of, who he cannot reason with, who he cannot protect from his inevitable fate. Nacho runs into oblivion just trying to get away from that - and it's why Tuco barely even acknowledges Nacho's existence and nearly shoots him by accident.
If you don't respect yourself, Tuco will walk all over you until you do. You can't just fear Tuco, you need to respect him. Fear is a kind of respect, but Tuco wants you to respect yourself.
When challenged, Jesse relies on the product he's carrying, he turns to skinny pete for backup, he references principles - he never stands up to Tuco. "We don't do business that way" also cites your friend, but "we" isn't there. Right now Jesse needs to stand up. When Jesse defers to the product, Tuco holds up his own product - then beats him with it.
How hard does a bag of money hit? How fast? Jesse took the hit LONG before Tuco started swinging because that's what Jesse's used to. When the cops sweat Jesse is he going to roll over the same way? When competitors challenge him? This is what Tuco wants to know. He can't work with anyone who can't stand up when it counts... and worse... Jesse's brave as can be. He just doesn't know who he is.
Jesse's only flaw is he doesn't respect himself and Tuco smells it. It reeks. Walt doesn't respect Jesse until the absolute very end, and even then it's a fleeting moment before Walt dies - the ultimate forced act of humility. Tuco, when going up against Mike, see's this and ends up in Jail for it, but if you want to look at it another way - the happiest you will ever see Tuco is right before he beats the tar out of Mike. To Tuco a beat is an act of respect, an opportunity. This is why he's constantly hitting people on the back - it's an act of familiarity.
He gets one from Walt, gives one to Jesse - but after, they're all on the same page.
The time you should be afraid of someone violent is when they tell you a deep, personal, and intimate story... because for many violent people, intimacy and violence are one in the same. Tuco doesn't do that here, but just a tip to the wise. It'll always come to violence the more you get to know these people, because that's how the cycle grows forever. Tuco may have had principles - but one of them is this.
@@BigMac8000 just how many hours of shows and movies did you endure to come up with that level of street cred psychology ?
I love how Gonzo and No Doze are silently critiquing Tuco's beating of Jesse.
"Let's see. We have a half-Salamanca element with money sack as accessory.
He's applying moderate force, while still leaving marks and intimidation.
What is Tuco saying here?
I believe this is an initiation beatdown, meant to signify the pain and suffering in this world, while also presenting Tuco as "The Artist" who wields his brush - in this case a sack with rolled bills - to both create and accept the chaos of our mortal coils."
idk man, No-Doze seem to like it
Tuco just wants to beat somebody up, a slight is just a pretext for doing so.
Skinny pete got caught off guard big time. His reactions are hilarious!
You get chills when you realise what badass reciprocation is going to happen next 😋
The exact moment Flynn became veggie bacon
Lmao
What? this comment sucks
when you realised he defeat thanos after tasting infinity stones
Watching Tucos scenes is terrifying by itself
Seriously.

Jesse and Mike are both victims of Tuco, yet they didn’t know it
Wth r u talking about??? lol irrelevance to your comment kid
Ofc they knew it. What are you talking about?
Oh yeah, Saul is also a Tuco victim, they knew it too huh, sounds to me they talk a lot amongst themselves
Except Mike intentionally trapped Tuco and got instant revenge by putting him in prison for years.
@@thenewadventuresofhenry6998 Except Mike was expecting a scuffle and not as a thorough beat down, plus the gun was the target, yet by Tuco’s brutality in the face of police approaching the scene, Mike got the extra
*physical abuse occurring on-screen*
meanwhile in my head: "DAMN MAN LOOK AT THAT LOOK LOOK AT THAT LOOK D-D-DAMN MAN LOOK AT THAT LOOK LOOK AT THAT LOOK LOOK AT THAT LOOK"
breaking bad remix
"WOOOOOH. Man thats messed up. Ok Heisenberg! Next week."
I'm pretty sure Tuco would have appreciated a "Naah man, I don't trust you!"
Trick question, there's no right answer.
Tuco seems like a reasonable person.
2:29 Notice No-Doze is smiling while Jesse is getting the same treatment he would later receive and not survive while Gonzo sort of mildly nods along but not enjoying it.
Tuco may be a psycho but damn does he have a nice shirt lol
This is the moment jesse pinkman became a series long punching bag
Jesse came at tuco with a chainsaw, tuco had a right to defend himself

he-he-he
This is the exact moment Tuco beat the piss out of Heisenbergs mule boy.
2:28 karma served that smirk on his face pretty well lol
Walter was in rush to make money before dying .. Always kept pushing Jessie and his friends to expand their business territory .. and thus endangering their lives ..
This scene is one example .. the other one is an episode in season 2 titled ( peekaboo ) .. and the third one lead to the killing of his friend kombo ..
0:38 the way he said its all good cracks me up for some reason
Funny how his henchman (no-doze I think) reacts when tuco uses meth, he doesnt seem pleased. It's almost like something could happen to him when tuco uses.
2:03 Why does Skinny look like both Skinny and Badger combined?
Breaking bad: Jesse spends the entire show getting beat up
El Camino: Jesse being a complete badass
I'm sensing a pattern: Tuco doesn't like people speaking for him
Ngl ion like it either mfs act like u don’t got a voice so they can speak for you
Love how Tuco views his potential suppliers as "competition" LOL
South valley was territory of the Salamancas
isn't tuco a salamanca?
Jesse was smart to bring one of the two best hitman west missisipi along with him to this meeting
We know deep down Tuco passionately loves Jesse.
“Your a little light” maybe because you just snorted it lmao.
Well to be fair Jesse was acting scared, so Tuco sensed that and didnt hesitate to beat him. A lesson that can learn here is to stay non reactive and keep your cool, because anyone with a demeanor can smell blood in the water and wont hesitate to blow you out.
Wrong. This was an intimidation tactic, a power-move. He beat him even though he wasn't fighting back; he was making a point. "I own you now, that's how I do business, don't ever challenge me." Violence is how he gets down & he doesn't respond to challenges well..
After watching the rest of the show, this was a love tap.
To this day I have yet to see a more intimidating character on TV than Tuco
Al Bundy's librarian ?
Tuco had million reasons to be hated but he was a true family man
It's so satisfying for some reason watching Jesse getting beaten to a pulp lmfao
You might have something wrong with you
Maybe because he killed Gayle!
People say Gus is the most terrifying villain but no, not even close. Tuco is haunting

It always seemed to me like a deal such as this would be much easier if the selling party was polite, accomodating and respectful
