Better Call Saul · Season 1, Episode 15

Gus, Peter and others in “Unfinished Business”

You look well.

PPeter

Well... I don't feel well. Maybe things will improve now that you're here. Lydia tells me Salamanca is in jail. This means you can continue construction?

[pause] Eduardo Salamanca has been arrested for murder. However, even from jail, he creates... issues.

PPeter

What kind of issues?

He ordered his men to burn down one of my restaurants.

You're kidding. He's in jail, and he can still do that?

I'm afraid so.

I know it's not exactly my area of expertise, but don't people get killed in prison all the time? I mean, shanked... and shived, and whatnot.

If anything happens to Salamanca on this side of the border, the cartel will assume that it was my doing. It would mean war. A war, for which we are unprepared.

PPeter

My God. This nightmare never ends!

[to Gus] He's concerned about the money.

PPeter

Concerned?! 4,800,000 euros! It's a miracle I haven't been caught! Last year, the auditors came this close. One of them–a woman–I think she knew.

Peter...

PPeter

At first, it was a year. Then, it was two. Then, three. And now you are telling me how long?! I can't! I can't! They will catch me, and then it is over!

Peter.

PPeter

I can't!

Peter.

PPeter

Gustavo, please! I can't.

Listen to me.

PPeter

I–

Listen to me! [pause] Do you remember Santiago? The two of us, our backs to the wall? I will never forget what you did. You are still the same man. You will do what is necessary. Stay strong, my friend. We've come so far. We are so very close.
