what episode of breaking bad does gus die
Face Off (Breaking Bad) Gus enters Hector's room and berates him for supposedly being a coward and asks Hector to finally look at him, which is something Hector had always refused to do during Gus' taunting visits. As Gus prepares to inject Hector with a syringe of poison, Hector finally looks at him for the first time in years; first remorsefully, and then with rage in his eyes before ringing his bell numerous times. At first Gus and Tyrus are confused, but Gus then realizes the bell is connected to the bomb that has been fitted under Hector's wheelchair. Before Gus can escape, the bomb explodes, blowing the door off Hector's room and instantly killing Hector and Tyrus. Gus then walks out of the room's remains seemingly unharmed and calmly adjusts his tie. But as nursing home staff rush to the site of the blast, the camera moves around to reveal that half of Gus' face and scalp have been completely torn off (hence the title of the episode) before he collapses and dies. Walter hears the news of the explosion on the radio and is relieved that his plan to draw Gus out into the open and kill him has apparently worked. He then heads to the lab, kills Gus' two henchmen stationed there, and frees Jesse. Knowing that Hank is closing in on the lab, Walt and Jesse burn it down.
