Eduardo "Lalo" Salamanca styles himself as a gentleman with a soft smile that betrays little. The "Better Call Saul" villain, played by Tony Dalton, doesn't raise his voice, and when he does speak, he infuses his words with melodic cheer. The first time we meet him, which happens late in the fourth season, he's cooking while singing with the radio. When one of the Salamanca cartel's top men in Albuquerque walks in to confer with him, Lalo offers him a plate.
"Never in your life have you tasted something so delicious, it's true. Wait . . ." Lalo effuses in Spanish, dancing around the stove like a happy gourmand as he plates his creation.
