You never know with this show. I never would have guessed Walt would have fired a round into a gangster point blank before the last show either...

I have to think Gus' comment about the Mexican cartel "probing our weaknesses" is foreshadowing for the next season. Obviously Walt is a big weakness in Gus' operation now. I could see him negotiating himself a job with the Mexicans next season leading to an all out war between the two cartels.
I see it quite differently. Gus needs Walt to keep making quality product and keep the money coming in if he's going to go to war with the cartel. The Cartel won't care about having Walt's product as much as having the territory.

Also, from the start I think Gale was meant to be a replacement for Walt which is really why Walt got Jesse brought in.
