Gus's murder on Better Call Saul is bizarre and yet has great significance. Gus is the ultimate villain, but he rarely has to get his hands dirty,

Gus knows how far Lalo is, he has to be released and he has to be stopped; it's murder or murder, Gus takes decisive action.

Always an opportunist, this was a unique opportunity to take Lalo alone and without hesitation.

By trusting others to do the job and pay the price, Gus sensibly wants to make sure it ends now.
