About the cartel boss, you're right, actually. Eladio is his name. They call him Don Eladio because "don" is a way to say "mister" or "sir" in spanish. But it is used properly with the first name, not the last name. On a similar subject, this text is from an interview with Vince Gilligan, talking about a couple of little mistakes about details he made in Breaking Bad: "Jesse’s teeth were possibly too perfect. Aaron Paul has a beautiful set of teeth, and good for him because you need them in life. But as a character, Jesse got the living hell beaten out of him more times than I could even count and he smoked a lot of meth which plays hob with the enamel of your teeth so his teeth would have been pretty awful to behold. They are unrealistically unnaturally healthy and attractive and that, in hindsight, bothers me a bit. Oh, and one that kills me that I really wish I could fix. Not one of my writers, myself included, are Spanish speakers which in general we made do and had a lot of help with expert translators and quite a few of our actors spoke fluent Spanish. But in a scene we wrote, the character in the wheelchair – Hector “Tio” Salamanca {Mark Margolis) – we refer to him in one scene as Don Salamanca. The proper usage is “don” goes with the first name, not the last name so it should have been Don Hector. In real life, Giancarlo Esposito doesn’t speak a word of Spanish – he was doing it phonetically – so he was referring to the character as Don Salamanca when it should have been Don Hector. It bothers me. I wish I could wave a magic wand and fix it." Great episode/reaction, as usual :)
