"I don't think we're alike at all, Mr White."

From Season 2 Episode 11 Mandala:
After Combo is murdered by a rival gang, Saul proposes a new distribution method for Walt and Jesse's product. Under stress, Jesse tells Jane what he does. Saul puts Walt in touch with a meth distributor named Gus Fring, who agrees to purchase Walt's product. However, Gus expresses concern about Jesse's drug problem, which has escalated into heroin use due to Jane's relapse. Skyler finds out that Ted has been engaging in tax evasion from the IRS, but due to their past relationship, she decides not to report it.

I like how Gus was so insulted when Walt suggested they were alike that he couldn't resist breaking character to deny it

[pcbacklash_]

I love Gus's transformation from friendly manager interacting with a customer to deadly serious drug kingpin dressing down a potential partner. Kudos to Giancarlo.

I like how gus says ' I have your numbers' confirming to walt that he has both of his numbers

Why are they whispering over a new fried chicken formula?

[lucascerritos]

This is what makes Gus Fring the best villain on television, kind, polite, disciplined, but cold and calculating, intimidating and terrifying.

[graywolf]

I just love how Walter offers to supply Gus with the very best fried chicken seasoning on the market. And Walter just happens to have 38 pounds of this impeccable seasoning on hand.

[jamesbell]

Getting involved with Walt really blew up in his face.

[SpencerCornelia]

the moment Gus switches out of Chicken Man into Drug Kingpin is so chilling. Definitely one of the best characters I've ever seen in tv history.

[wubbo]

Gus saying "you can never trust an addict" is so true and he knows it not only cause he deals with them but he knows his own product and knows what it does to people

[damongwinn]

The way Gus Fring voice changes when he says, " I don't think we are alike at all", is chilling, to say the least.

[Kaitos]

1:30 Beautiful moment, that's when Gus drops the act and the real person comes out. It's like a switch that he flips and his entire persona changes: his voice, his body language, his stare. Fantastic acting by Esposito.

I never get tired of this scene; Giancarlo just oozes talent in a few short minutes on camera.

[claybailey]

What I would give to watch this show in it’s entirety for the first time again

[jacksonbrunner]

Giancarlo's delivery is SO good. When he drops the facade... it's haunting.

1:30 Walter: "I believe we're alike in that way."
Gus: 😒

[stellarwind]

I love how Gus breathes air here. It shows that he’s a human that requires oxygen. Brilliant acting.

[JohnGaroPiano]

2:26 "That is not the only factor"

Gus was 100% correct

[BSmittyrmFitty]

I love how at 0:04 Gustavo the drug lord notices Walt walking up without looking up and immediately turns on the friendly civilian act. 😂

[AlexandraAndStuff]

My favorite thing about the way Gus is written, is how he was always willing to let go of his pride and ego in order to accomplish a greater goal. He smiled at Hector, he apologized to Lalo, he personally cleaned his own restaurant, he pushed through years of working BELOW his mortal enemies just to get close enough to wipe them all out. Especially after BCS, Walter is such a small, small man in my eyes...

0:34 The way Gus pulls out the chair symbolises he's having a seat. Vince is truly a genius
