Look, Tuco, we can't do him like that, man. Buzzards and rats and all that. I'm just saying, you know? It's not very Christian.
~ Gonzo.
Real brilliant.
~ Gonzo sarcastically quotes Walter White alongside Tuco.

Gonzo is a minor antagonist in both Breaking Bad and its prequel Better Call Saul.

He is a member of The Cartel and one of the lieutenants for his brother-in-law of Tuco Salamanca; however, while he has no problem selling drugs with Tuco and aiding him in his plans, Gonzo proved to be far less bloodthirsty and violent than Tuco himself.

He was portrayed by Jesus Payan.

Biography[]

Backstory[]

At some point, Gonzo became Tuco Salamanca's brother-in-law when he married his sister, and became one of his lieutenants in his drug operation alongside Nacho Varga and No-Doze. He was also a devoted christian.

Better Call Saul[]

When Cal and Lars Lindholm conned Tuco's grandmother, which resulted in both them and Jimmy McGill being kidnapped onto the desert, Gonzo was there to witness it happen, and tasked to carry Jimmy back to the car once the lawyer manages to talk Tuco out of killing him. However, Jimmy refuses, as he also wants to save the lives of the two brothers; He once again manages to talk down Tuco from murder, although not without breaking their legs.

Breaking Bad[]

Gonzo is present when a deal between Tuco and Jesse Pinkman goes bad and sees Tuco beat Jesse severely. When Walter White confronts Tuco with the intention of avenging his partner, Gonzo joins his boss in mocking Walt and is shocked when Walt blows up Tuco's headquarters, pulling out his gun before being told to calm down by his boss. Following this, Tuco enters into an uneasy partnership with Walt and Jesse.

At another meeting, No-Doze has a very poor choice of words, which results in Tuco mistakenly thinking No-Doze thinks he's stupid and that he needs to speak for him. This results in him beating No-Doze severely. Walt feels sorry for No-Doze and tries to stop Tuco, but Gonzo holds him back so he won't get himself killed. No-Doze dies, which Tuco blames on Walt and Jesse. Gonzo was visibly saddened, but disposed of the body under Tuco's orders. Gonzo later tries to move the body to give No-Doze better treatment, but the stack of cars where No-Doze's body was shifted and crushed him, causing him to bleed out and die.
