That was an amazing episode. It really made me love Gus' character even more.

I really hope the actor gets an emmy nomination next year.

I thought Gus could rise to no higher level of badassery after Box Cutter, but here we are. Not only is he a complete cold and amazing boss, but he has a reason to stand up to the cartel. Very cool.

What was he trying to do with Tio in the present? Just get him to look at him? EDIT: Ah, be there when he dies? Okay, that's even fucking more badass.

Why was he saying maybe next time? Is he saying next time he'll kill him??

That's how I understood it. When he first comes in he says "Will it be today"? Also makes the other flashback, where he recounts the deaths of Hector's nephews and the other cartel guy with a smile on his face make sense. It also hints strongly that either Gus or one of his men made the phone call to Hank.

Excellent how they gave Gus motivation and built his past. Gives context to why he's such a cold moutherfucker.

Cartel could have taken the proposition

Oh man the opening scene is better by a ton knowing Gus's backstory.
Edit: I don't think anything specific happened in Chile. Gus and his hermano just had control there and could sell without infringing on the cartel. When they told him it wouldn't be like Chile, they meant that he'd have to answer to them.

He also has some tremendous secrets he wants to keep buried.

Conflicts resolved and renewed. That episode was earned.
