Question
In S06E01, we see Lalo going to a couple's home after the events of last season.
It seems the couple knows Lalo and offered him coffee and talks with him about how he helped the family. And then we see Lalo catching the scissors as if to kill the woman, but it is not shown, and then it cuts to him going to the bathroom where the women's husband is shaving his beard and he sees him, both laugh and it cuts again. Nothing is shown about them afterward.
So did Lalo kill them? If so why when he helped them so much?
Answer
Yes, because he needed the body of the man:
Needing a body to make his death look believable to Gus and the world, Lalo finds a man who closely resembles himself. He then encourages this man to shave his facial hair in a way that makes him look like Lalo's double.
Moments before Lalo kills the man off-screen, there's a shot where the man looks up at Lalo and you're supposed to notice that the two look very similar.
As pointed out by Miloslaw Smyk in the comments, and backed by this article:
Furthermore, paying for Mateo's dental treatments shows he also uses actions to back that up. The manipulation of Mateo and Sylvia adds another layer of villainy to Lalo, as it proves he's willing to prey on the struggles and naivety of innocent people to get what he wants before happily disposing of them when need be.
