Even to Germany, which is where we find ourselves at the beginning of Madrigal. Deep in the bowels of the titular corporation, a dead-eyed suit dips anonymous nuggets into and assortment of condiments, while a lab technician enthusiastically relays all of the kooky names they have come up with for the American market. Said suit is told the police are paying him a visit – when he sees that the ‘Los Pollos Hermanos’ logo is being disposed of and that the Polizei are poring over photos of him cosying up to Gus and he walks to the bathroom and commits suicide via defibrillator.

One of the brilliant things about Madrigal’s plotting is that Mike’s re-introduction isn’t a result of one of Walt’s increasingly complex and Machiavellian schemes – when Mike refuses Walt, Walt stand up, shakes his hand, and leaves. While it’s obvious that Walt isn’t going to give up on the World’s Greatest Drug Enforcer that easy, it seems that Walt knows either consciously or sub-consciously he doesn’t have to do anything to force him: for one thing, Walt is on a ridiculous roll right now, and his self-belief is such that he believes things will just gravitate towards him – hence his assertion that the missing ingredient of the meth puzzle, methylene, will show up if they just have faith, which of course it eventually does.
And so it proves, in this wonderful showcase for Jonathan Banks’ Mike, a truly great anti-heroic gun-for-hire in the mold of Clint Eastwood or Charles Bronson. Mike is the definition of old-school – while a horrifyingly violent man by any standard he’s also got a strict code of ethics and a no-nonsense attitude.
It’s why we love him as a character, and it allows for some cracking noir set-pieces here, including his wonderful interrogation duel with Hank, another student of the old school, where they exchange probing grimly sardonic barbs (we also got a delicious tease of a potential Mike backstory episode here – please make this happen); and Mike’s weary, resigned execution of a fellow soldier that has betrayed him.
There’s also some wonderfully hard-boiled dialogue from Mike throughout, worthy of a Dashiell Hammett or James M Cain novel (“You are a time bomb, and I have no intention of being around for the boom” “I don’t know what movies you’ve been watching but in the real world we don’t kill 11 people as some kind of prophylactic measure”).
However, Mike’s commitment to the old school may prove to be his undoing. His decision to spare irritating go-between Lydia could be construed as a ‘half-measure’ – by not killing her and getting back into bed with Walt he is certainly going against his principles and instincts. Probably not as much as if he had killed her, though – we’ve seen throughout the series that Mike has a potential blind spot when it comes to young women (his own grand-daughter, and the woman in the memorable monologue he delivers in Half Measures), and it seems like he doesn’t have it in him to effectively destroy two women’s lives with one bullet.
