Biography[]
Gaff and his two associates are sent by the Cartel to hijack a Los Pollos Hermanos refrigerated truck. Once they pull of the raid, they sadistically kill the driver as well as the others by hooking up a tube to the exhaust pipe to redirect the exhaust into the truck's ventilation system to suffocate the guards in the process. Gaff and his crew then eat the driver's lunch and break into the truck and take a container of fry batter that was marked.
After the hijacking of the truck, Gus Fring and the Cartel arrange for a negotiation meeting at one of Gus' warehouses. Gaff and two other goons arrive delivering a repeat ultimatum to Gus. However, when Gus doesn't accept or decline the offer, Gaff sets up a retaliation scheme.
Gaff sets a camp on a hill near one of Gus' warehouses and uses a sniper rifle to kill one of Gus' men. As Gaff continues to terrorize the crew, Gus comes out and walks right at Gaff, giving Gaff no satisfaction. Gaff ends the attack and leaves.
Gus finally accepts the Cartel's ultimatum and he, Mike, and Jesse head to Mexico to cook the signature blue meth for the Cartel. Gaff picks them up, and brings them to the Cartel's Superlab along with Joaquin Salamanca. After Jesse takes the lead and successfully cooks a batch, they celebrate and Gaff tells Jesse he belongs to the Cartel now.
In the countryside, after the celebration, the Cartel dons are poisoned by Gus after drinking the Zafiro Añejo tequila that Gus spiked. When Don Eladio stumbles, Gaff notices this but is garroted from behind and killed by Mike before he could assist the don.
