Hector Salamanca (Mark Margolis) ranks relatively low when taking into account only his actions and condition in the Breaking Bad series. He uses a wheelchair, and must ring a bell to speak. He could be meaner and more evil if he were physically able, which fans see in Better Call Saul.
A member of the Salamanca family, Tuco is the grandson of Abuelita and the nephew of Hector. Tuco also has four cousins who are involved in criminal activities: Lalo, Marco, Leonel, and Joaquin. He is the first Salamanca family member to run their drug operation, and was succeeded by his uncle Hector and cousin Lalo.
Hank Is The Hero
Whereas Walt is evil, Hank is good. For all intents and purposes, he is the hero of the show. He truly believes he is changing the world for the better by working for the DEA and he truly cares about his family, even though his relationship with Marie had its ups and downs.
Throughout the entirety of Breaking Bad, two characters stand out as worthy of the "kingpin" title because of how intelligent and calculating they are. That would be Walter White himself and Gustavo "Gus" Fring.
Numerous characters in television shows are informally described as psychopaths. Examples include Natalie Buxton in Bad Girls, Sean Slater and Michael Moon in EastEnders, Dexter Morgan in Dexter, Tuco Salamanca in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, and Frank Underwood in House of Cards.
The cousins both showed dedication to family, which was instilled in them by their uncle, Hector, who taught them that family was the most important thing in life, and was exemplified by their dedication to avenge the death of their cousin, Tuco who was killed by D.E.A. agent Hank Schrader.
He raised Tuco as a son and taught him and his other nephews that family is everything, living by the creed himself. He is the second Salamanca family member to run their drug operation, following his nephew Tuco, and was succeeded by his nephew Lalo. Though brutal, Hector is very loyal to his family and the cartel.
He is identified by the DEA as Hector Salamanca of the Cartel, but they think he hasn't been a major player in the business for years. As such, he is paralyzed and unable to speak as a result of a stroke (portrayed in Better Call Saul), and uses a brass service bell taped onto his wheelchair armrest to communicate.
While he cries at hearing of the fates of Don Eladio and the other members of the Cartel, given his hatred of Eladio in Better Call Saul, it's possible he is only enraged at the thought of Gustavo Fring winning than his care for the Cartel, though it also could be that he developed some care/respect for Eladio over the ...
Lalo Salamanca (Tony Dalton)
Lalo Salamanca is simply a psychopath. His way of thinking is different than most people's. Unlike Jack Welker, Salamanca isn't motivated by the moment's pleasure.
It would be a stretch to call him completely evil, as that would suggest that some level of thought or malice goes into his actions, but as fans already know, Tuco just acts and chooses violence without thinking, which has led to some shockingly gruesome situations in Breaking Bad.
Lalo is one of many nephews of Hector Salamanca, an enforcer of Don Eladio Vuente's drug cartel. After Hector suffers a stroke, Lalo arrives from Mexico to help run the family drug operation in Albuquerque; he takes a greater interest in the day-to-day details of the operation than Hector did.
This was the second part of the two-episode premiere, in which the first episode aired on February 8, 2015 and this episode on February 9, 2015. This episode is in reference to Tuco Salamanca, in which his grandmother calls him "mijo" which means "my son."
Hank begins showing signs of post-traumatic stress disorder in "Breakage" after killing Tuco Salamanca in "Grilled", the first deconstruction of his "tough cop" persona.
Moments later, Tuco shocks everyone when he punches No-Doze and proceeds to brutally beat him to near death.
At this point, Tuco's behavior suggests he could be either a psychopath or a sociopath. While Tuco does show emotional detachment towards others' well-being, what differentiates him from a psychopath is his impulsive behavior.
Up to this point, Gus is portrayed as the smartest person on the show, matched only by Walter White in Breaking Bad. In spite of this, Lalo is able to believably outmaneuver him at nearly every turn.
Because of the rivalry between Gus and Hector, Lalo becomes dedicated to disrupting Gus' legitimate restaurant business Los Pollos Hermanos and Lavandería Brillante, as well as his reputation with the cartel. Unlike his other rivals such as Walter White, Gus was highly fearful of Lalo due to his cunning and resilience.
Hector Salamanca, also known as Don Hector, was the elderly don of the Salamanca drug organization and an associate of cartel boss Don Eladio Vuente. He was the son of Abuelita, the uncle of twins Marco and Leonel Salamanca, Tuco Salamanca, and Lalo Salamanca, and the grandfather of Joaquin Salamanca.
The sides of his personality — sociopath and family man, scientist and killer, rational being and creature of impulse, entrepreneur and loser — are not necessarily as contradictory as we might have supposed. Or rather, if we insist on supposing that they are, it may be for our own sentimental reasons.
On the other hand, Tuco had very little respect for Jesse Pinkman. Tuco, much like Gus Fring at first, viewed Jesse as a low-life drug addict with no real motivation.
He is a psychotic Mexican drug kingpin who briefly became the meth distributor for both Walter White and Jesse Pinkman respectively; as such, he also had encounters with corrupt lawyer Jimmy McGill and hitman Mike Ehrmantraut.
Eduardo 'Lalo' Salamanca
Pretty much from the word go, Lalo cements himself as not only the smartest of the Salamanca family but as one of the best and most intelligent villains of either series also.
Personality. Don Eladio is the charismatic but narcissistic and sociopathic head of his Cartel.
