Better Call Saul: 10 Season 6 Fan Theories (That Could Come True)
8. Lalo Kills Nacho
Nacho Varga, the double agent, the undercover man. Let's all look at his current situation logically, shall we.
He is right now fleeing Lalo Salamanca's Mexican compound. Does he have transport? We don't know. Does he know where he's going? Probably not. Has Lalo survived the assassination attempt and now heavily suspects that Nacho had something to do with it? Yes.
Okay, so nothing about this tells you that Nacho is going to get far. Who knows though, perhaps Fring has managed to pull Varga out and placate Mike's own feelings about Nacho. Perhaps not.
Better Call Saul has been underscored by the tragedy of Nacho's situation and how he just can't get away from the life he initially chose. Through the show, he has demonstrated that he is resourceful, smart and more than capable of getting back to New Mexico before Lalo catches up to him. However, the question remains will Ignacio Varga manage to do it?
Killing Nacho off so early next season would be a classic Breaking Bad universe move. That being said, so is him getting back to New Mexico then being killed by Lalo later.
The facts remain in place right now - Nacho is running for his life and Lalo has gone after him - which is worrying when you remember that Lalo has shown himself to be a truly brutal and ruthless human being, with some very good survival instincts.
So, just how far can Nacho get before he is potentially gunned down by Lalo?
Likelihood: 4/10
