He once assisted Hector in torturing a hotel proprietor for disrespecting the two of them, and burning the proprietor to death and his hotel down, with Lalo keeping a desk bell as a souvenir of the ordeal. Lalo became a major cartel lieutenant. Later earning the status as a Capo of the cartel, second only to Don Eladio in status, and he was referred to as "Don" like the rest of the Cartel leaders. He was put in charge of the cartel’s enforcement arm in Michoacán, and was a high profile narcotics distributor. He took up residence in a large, heavily fortified compound in Chihuahua. At his estate, Lalo attained his own found family, which consisted of his loving housekeeper Yolanda, his cheerful gardener Cecilio, and his four good natured bodyguards, Miguel, Ciro, Herardo, and Raul. Not too far from the compound lived a couple named Mateo and Sylvia Ramos. Lalo stepped in as their benefactor by paying for Mateo’s teeth to be fixed. However in actuality, he was only using them in the potential case of faking his own death in the future. Lalo has five cousins: Tuco and his sister, the twins Marco and Leonel, and his first cousin once removed Joaquin. When Lalo was young, he met Jesse Lee and the two became friends despite being from two different worlds. They had a deep, personal connection with one and other and eventually escalated the relationship to romantic and sexual in their teens. However, with Lalo facing expectations from his family and Jesse’s own family’s intent to leave the area for better, safer opportunities in America, the two would separate despite still having feelings with one and other. Ignacio Varga arrives at El Michoacáno where Hector ran his business and finds Lalo in the kitchen making food. Though Lalo offers the food to Nacho, stating that it's delicious and a family recipe, Nacho refuses the offer, recognizing that Lalo is a Salamanca family member and has been sent by them. Lalo confirms this and introduces himself as Eduardo, though he invites Nacho to call him by his nickname of Lalo. Lalo explains that he has been sent to make sure Nacho is running the business smoothly, and reassures him that it will be like he’s not even there. He then sits down with Domingo Molina as he meets with the local dealers. After Hector is moved to Casa Tranquila following his stroke and paralysis caused by Nacho, Lalo and Nacho go and pay him a visit. Lalo addresses Hector, remembering the incident where the two of them burned down a hotel and tortured the proprietor for showing disrespect. Lalo goes on to say that he went back into the hotel as it was burning, and retrieved a souvenir that he has kept for years. He presents the souvenir to Hector as a gift: the bell from the hotel's front desk. Lalo ties the bell to the armrest of Hector's wheelchair, allowing him to ring it for the first time, then speaks to Hector in private about "the Chilean" before leaving with apparent new orders from Hector. Lalo and Nacho pay a visit to Los Pollos Hermanos for lunch and are greeted by Gustavo Fring. Lalo enthusiastically compliments Gus for his chicken. Lalo is then invited back into Gus' office, where he thanks Gus on behalf of the Salamanca family for saving Hector's life. He also speculates that Don Eladio enjoys exploiting the "bad blood" between Gus and the Salamancas, implying that he's seeking an alliance against Eladio. Gus picks up that Lalo is trying to get him to show dissatisfaction against the cartel, so he replies that he is "satisfied with the current arrangement" and shakes Lalo's hand as he leaves. Outside the restaurant, Lalo asks Nacho to drive him to Gus' chicken farm.”)}
