I can't imagine Vince Gilligan came out and said that Gale is dead. They're pretty good at keeping this shows plot lines a secret. I'm not doubting that he is dead, but I doubt that he's said as much.

As for the lulling him into a sense of security before offing him, is that not what he tried to do in the last season with Gale? It ended with a mucked up failure which is where they currently stand. You think he's going to re-attempt this plan, when it's known that Walt is hip to it? Seems unlikely he would go that route. He seems too smart to try and rehash the same scheme.

Spoiler!

Gilligan said in an interview with Alan Sepinwall that he didn't intend for the ending of Season 3 to be ambiguous and just shot it that way for effect. Jesse did infact kill Gale.

In my mind, no, I don't intend for there to be any ambiguity. Let me start this by saying I always am reluctant to tell the audience afterward what to think or how to feel. I really prefer it when the audience comes to their own conclusions. But in honest answer to your question, I never really intended for there to be any ambiguity. But it's funny: in the editing room, my editor and some other people were saying that the way it counter-dollies around, it looks like he's changing his point of aim before he pulls the trigger. For what it's worth, I did not intend for it to feel that way. I've been hearing from the people who've already seen it that it looks like he's changing where he's aiming. That is not intentional. I did not see it that way when I was directing. It's not wrong for you to think he shot this guy.

And yeah, I'm worried they're going to make him a little too badass basically.
