Complete story — includes the ending

Gus's men replace Nacho's safe with a duplicate, into which Mike places Nacho's cash and fake Canadian ID along with an envelope. Gus and Bolsa promise Hector they will avenge Lalo, but Hector's demeanor convinces Gus that Lalo survived. Bolsa breaks into the duplicate safe and finds the envelope, which contains details of an offshore bank account as well as the motel's phone number. Nacho deduces Gus' betrayal and he escapes during a shootout just as the Cousins arrive to capture him. Gus orders Nacho's father, Manuel, to be taken hostage to force Nacho to give himself up, but Mike refuses, prompting a standoff with Gus and Tyrus; Nacho calls Mike to speak to Gus. Jimmy meets the Kettlemans at their fraudulent tax preparation service and cons them into believing they have grounds for a lawsuit against Howard. They reject his services and instead ask Cliff to sue for ineffective counsel over Howard's alleged cocaine usage during Craig's embezzlement case, but he refuses. Jimmy unsuccessfully tries to bribe the Kettlemans into silence, but Kim coerces them by threatening to reveal their scam to the IRS. Jimmy and Kim leave, with an unknown person following them.
