Nacho Varga (Michael Mando) is on shaky ground heading into the Season 5 finale of Better Call Saul. Just when it looked like he was about to be free of Lalo Salamanca (Tony Dalton) for good, Lalo had to turn around and question Jimmy (Bob Odenkirk) about what really happened when he picked up that $7 million bail in the desert. Kim (Rhea Seehorn) backed up Jimmy's story, but her thrilling confrontation with Lalo had an unintended consequence when she made him think twice about whether he can trust his own men. Now Lalo is headed for the border with Nacho in tow — and Kim's voice in his head telling him to get his house in order.
