[Mike has taken Werner to the outskirts of Albuquerque to await Werner's execution under Gus' orders, but has volunteered to kill Werner himself]
I want to know your end game. What'd you think was going to happen?
I thought that I would come back, and my friend, Michael, would be very, very angry... but, in time, he would understand and forgive.
It was never up to me.
Oh, Michael, look, I know I've made trouble for you and I'm very sorry for the damage I caused. I will repair what I broke with my own hands, but please. Margarethe w-will land any minute. Soon, she will be at the hotel, please. Take me back there. Let us be together for a little, huh? Let her see me and know that everything is okay. [Mike says nothing; pause] Ah, please, Michael. I go back now, I go back in the morning, what difference can it make?
[wavering] It's not going to happen.
Let me speak to Mr. Fring. I'll explain everything. I will make him understand.

[pause] Does your wife have a cell phone with her?
Yes...
I need you to call her now. [checks watch] She landed an hour ago.
But she knows nothing!
And you need to keep it that way. She's being followed!
