The pills Gustavo Fring takes are "activated charcoal" tablets that apparently can soak up poison and help delay the actions of it. Jesse fires at least 17 shots (maybe more) from that pistol. Salud means health in Spanish, but is also what Mexicans say when you are doing a toast.
Zafiro Añejo is a fictitious brand of tequila and distilled beverage created for Breaking Bad. During a party with the Cartel, Gustavo Fring gifted a poisoned bottle of Zafiro Añejo to Don Eladio and his capos, causing them to drop dead within minutes.
Gus and Eladio make peace, capped off with a bottle of rare tequila from Gus. As Eladio and his henchmen party, Gus goes to the bathroom and induces himself to vomit; the tequila was poisoned, and everyone who drank it dies.
Acquired Poison Immunity: Beforehand, Gus took an antidote and later activated his gag reflex to avoid the effects of the poisoned drink.
Gus opens a vial and swallows a pill, which seems to have no immediate effect. Jesse complains to about being left in Mexico, but Mike promises that either they are all going home or none of them are.
In the clip, Hazel (Shailene Woodley) chastises Gus (Ansel Elgort) for smoking, but he explains why he really has the cigarette in his mouth. “It's a metaphor, you see. You put the thing that does the killing right between your teeth, but you never give it the power to kill you,” he says.
Augustus tells Hazel he keeps the unlit cigarette in his mouth for its symbolism, or “metaphorical resonance” as Hazel phrases it. It's a way of feeling he has control over the thing that has the power to kill him. In this case, that thing is cancer, represented by the cigarette, a well-known carcinogen.
Gus Fring's death is one of the most shocking elements in Breaking Bad, but the show may have actually foreshadowed it all the way back in season 2.
Later on, Walt himself admitted to Jesse that he poisoned Brock with a Lily of the Valley plant just to keep Jesse on his side in order for them to orchestrate the death of Gus Fring, but by that point, their relationship was already in shambles.
It was actually a poison called a “neuromuscular blocking agent,” which is similar to what doctors use to paralyze a patient during surgery. Gus had a vendetta against Hector because Hector had killed Gus's partner in the cartel, Max Arciniega, and because Hector had disrespected Gus in public.
Sexuality. Much of Gus' motives are driven by revenge for the death of his partner Maximino "Max" Arciniega by the Mexican cartel. Gus and Max's relationship was long implied to be more than business before their confirmation as lovers by showrunner Peter Gould in 2022.
And in a twisted cherry on top of “Better Call Saul's” suspenseful Season 6 Part 2 return, it's revealed that Lalo is buried beneath Gus' meth super-lab. Lalo came so close to exposing Gus to the rest of the Salamanca cartel.
The boyfriend Gould is referring to is Max Arciniega (James Martinez), who Breaking Bad fans will remember as Gus' friend and business partner. Season 4, Episode 8, "Hermanos," includes a flashback of Hector Salamanca (Mark Margolis) murdering Max in cold blood.
Personality. Don Eladio is the charismatic but narcissistic and sociopathic head of his Cartel.
Depending on the mark up used by the bar, the trade price per bottle could be anywhere between $145 and $625 USD.
Nope, Gus didn't. Walter did. He asked Saul to arrange a meeting with Jesse in his office.

Gus is evil, but he's also calculating. He doesn't kill when he doesn't feel he has to, but also doesn't hesitate when it's time to give the order.
Gus Fring's Death Is Possible (But Not Realistic)
The blast wave severely injured his right side - but it didn't hit his vital organs, which could explain why Gustavo Fring's death in Breaking Bad wasn't immediate. Much of Gus' head and face was injured, but his skull was still intact.
It's established by this point in the show that Gus has a sixth sense for danger. He approaches any situation outside his control with caution. He never proceeds if something is out of the ordinary.
Gus gloats to Hector about the death of his nephews and associate, mentioning the cryptic phone call that Hank received before the Cousins attacked him that lead to their demise. He leaves Hector to seethe impotently with a few parting words: "Sangre por sangre", blood for blood.
It was nothing but the glass on Walt's forehead. The camera even focused on Walt's glasses on his forhead at the end of the scene. I thought that was the reason gus walked away realising it's a trap, though it's just been deduced based on the camera work of the scene.
His character, Gus, has autism spectrum disorder, which Marullo said was "what is so great about Tracy Beaker: it helps children understand that everyone is different".
Gus is known to have ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), and he most noticeably has a form of OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder).
Walt kept the towel beneath his knees after vomiting in a haphazard manner. Gus kept the towel beneath his knees before vomiting in a predecided manner. Yes Walt didn't know how Gus used to puke.
