But after sussing that she has been tailed, and confronting her stalkers, she is filled in on the Lalo situation by Mike, who thinks she is the only part of the Wexler McGill partnership who could handle the news without melting down. Just joking – for now, as Kim hasn’t entirely broken bad just yet. Gus’s belief in Lalo’s continuing existence, and fear over the consequences, is shared by another criminal mastermind – Kim Wexler. His absence is not making the heart grow fonder. Four episodes in and we’ve had precisely two scenes featuring the show’s biggest bad guy. We’re not used to seeing him this rattled (and this old … sorry but the suspension of disbelief continues to be difficult!), although it’s easy to sympathise with the Chicken Man because we have no clue where Lalo is, either. We all know that Gus’s assumption about Lalo is correct. He’s put security everywhere he can think of, and some more places on top, but still the customarily cool Gus is freaking out over a guy everyone else believes is dead. It seems fair to say that Mike is puzzled, too. The conceit is set up in a gentle, incongruous cold open where we’re left to wonder quite what is going on (just one of many nice touches in this episode, directed by Rhea Seehorn, who plays Kim).
