Hector Salamanca Bell Strike Revenge

Hector's bell ends his feud with Gus Fring.

The end of the feud between Hector Salamanca and Gus Fring comes in the Breaking Bad episode "Face Off", not in Better Call Saul. Hector, who communicates with a call bell after his stroke, has Walter White's pipe bomb attached under his wheelchair. When Gus visits Hector's nursing home to kill him, Hector rings the bell repeatedly and detonates the bomb, killing himself, Gus and Gus's henchman Tyrus.

Lore & Background

Gus had nursed a grudge against Hector for some 20 years, since Hector killed Gus's partner Max Arciniega on Don Eladio's orders. Before the visit, Tyrus spots Hector leaving the Albuquerque DEA office and assumes he has become an informant, which was part of Walt and Hector's plan to lure Gus into the trap.
