Mike's Darkest Moments from Better Call Saul

Mike's Darkest Moments from Better Call Saul

Here are some of the Darkest Moments of  Mike in Better Call Saul

Better Call Saul Season 6, Episode 5 sees Lalo Salamanca (Tony Dalton) dig into Mike (Jonathan Banks) The Darkest Moment: Killing Werner Ziegler (Rainer Bock) in Season 4. While Jimmy (Bob Odenkirk) and Kim (Rhea Seehorn) start Gus (Giancarlo Esposito) and Mike face the aftermath of Howard's (Patrick Fabian) scam and wait and prepare for Lala's revenge. But Lalo does it step by step, and when Better Call discovers Saul, his plan begins in Germany with Werner's wife Margarethe (Andrea Sooch).

In the fourth season of Better Call Saul, Gus Werner is hired to build his underground superlaborate with methane. Gus and Mike made it very clear to Werner that secrecy was
the number one rule. But Werner, particularly concerned about his 26-year-old wife's divorce, decided to leave Lavandería Brillante and make an appointment with Margarethe. But Mike arrests Werner and sends Margaret home. Gus orders Werner's death and offers Mike to do the work himself (instead of waiting for Gus' men). Mike and Werner have been together since season 4 Better Call Saul and Werner is a truly innocent man trapped in a dangerous world - for these reasons, Mike's murder is a traumatic, frightening event.

As Lalo watches Margaret in Saul's "Black and Blue" in Better Call, she reveals the worst Mike has to do with his job. Also, the murder of Werner by Mike is no longer a story, a traumatic event that Mike has to live with and try to accept. This incident is now a real threat to Mike and Gus: In particular, the destruction of Margaret's house and the theft of important valuables as part of her elaborate plan to turn around with her sworn enemies. In the latest episode of Better Call Saul Season 6, Part 1, Mike will have to face the darkest version of himself when he defeats Lalo. Mike's tragic consequences still haunt him. 

Lalo wanted to reveal the story behind Werner for a long time. Better Call Saul's fifth season begins with Lalo trying to identify the characters "Michael" and Werner Ziegler. In the season 4 finale, Lalo turns out to be one of Gus' men and calls Werner to find out the location of Gus's lab. Werner fell into it at first, but Mike interrupted the conversation at the right time. But Lalo never forgets and Better Call Saul season 6, episode 5 proves it. His observation of the revelation of the truth behind Werner is limited to more urgent matters - he can now continue this story and use it against his enemies Mike and Gus.

It's perhaps unsurprising that Lalo and Mike become worthy adversaries in Better Call Saul season 6. They are both meticulous, highly rational (with brief but sharp exceptions in Lalo's case), and determined to go up. But, in facing Lalo, Mike will have to confront the darkest side of his past. It will be an interesting but potentially upsetting journey for an already tragic character.
