They've been setting Kai up as a gonner from the jump.
My half assed prediction is that Mike kills Kai in some way that makes it look like a demolition accident. The Germans will believe it, but head German will know it's bullshit, and Mike will press him to check his curiousity. That will depend on if he lives or not. It's hard to picture the Germans making it out of this ok.

Yeah, in a similar scene, Nacho lets Crazy 8 who is light on his payment slide, Hector makes a comment on Nacho being soft which forces Nacho to beat the shit out of Crazy 8.

I was almost certain it would be Tuco, but when Crazy 8 motioned to his muscle, he didn't look like someone Tuco would use.

NICE! I had the thought that this would tie in to the "It was Nacho!" scene, but I didn't remember the name Lalo. Thanks for this.

I'm not sure he's going the way of Max Cherry the Hoover guy. Nacho already has canadian IDs for him and his dad (funny because he's canadian irl). I do anticipate Kim, now that she's found what moves her.. being the first one to go the Hoover route.
