Question
I already forgot this particular storyline. In Better Call Saul S03E04, Gus assures Lyle and the other Los Pollos Hermanos employees that Hector Salamanca, Ignacio Varga, et al href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pixVVVlm4tM" rel="nofollow noreferrer">wouldn't return:
"This is America. Here, the righteous have no reason to fear. Here, those men have no power." And when they saw that I had no fear of them, they ran like the cowards they are. Back across the border. They will not return. We will move on from this. My friends, I promise you... that together, we will prosper.
Gus of course had made up a fake story about how Hector was bullying Gus for money.
But how did Gus actually make sure that Hector et al didn't return? Like, what, Gus complained to Bolsa or Eladio who then forbade Hector from ever setting foot in an LPH branch?
I checked out the episode again, and it seems there's no resolution in this episode.
Answer
He kind of doesn't. In episode 6 of season 3 of Breaking Bad, 'Sunset', Marco and Leonel Salamanca turn up at Pollos and just kind of sit there. While they weren't present during Hector's visit, and their actions aren't quite the same, it's a somewhat-similar instance of chicken-restaurant-based cartel intimidation. (Presumably Hector himself might have tried something similar if he wasn't confined to a wheelchair by that point.)
You know, I'm starting to think that this Gustavo Fring chap doesn't tell the truth 100% of the time.
