Laloward

Laloward is the slash ship between Lalo Salamanca and Howard Hamlin from the Better Call Saul fandom.

Plan and Execution
Howard and Lalo only ever encounter one another once, in the mid-season finale of season 6.

When Howard enters Kim and Jimmy's apartment to confront them, the candle sitting on the coffee table flickers, signalling his entrance.

At the end of his monologue  regarding Kim and Jimmy's actions, the candle flickers again, signalling Lalo silently entering the apartment. Kim and Jimmy, (particularly the latter) are stricken with fear and shock at seeing Lalo, but Howard doesn't see him yet since he came up from behind. Howard finally turns and sees Lalo, with Kim stuttering and telling him that he needs to leave.

Howard asks Lalo who he is, to which he responds "nobody" and that he just needs to talk to his lawyers. Howard scoffs and suggests that Lalo finds better lawyers. Kim tries to get him to leave again, but Lalo interrupts and says that they can take their time. Howard asks what this is about, while Lalo slowly pulls out a gun, and screws on a silencer to it. Howard looks between the pair and Lalo, confused, and Kim asks if Lalo could just tell them what he wants, to which Lalo says that like he said, he just wants to talk.

Howard's breathing becomes more shallow as he realises more or less what situation they're in. He attempts to deescalate, saying that "there's really no need to-" before being shot in the head by Lalo, killing him.

Point and Shoot
Howard's body lays in the living room while Lalo talks to Kim and Jimmy. Later, Lalo gets killed by Gus in the superlab, partly because he let Gus keep talking until he was finished, unlike him cutting Howard off by killing him.

Gus instructs Mike and his crew to clean up the scene at Kim and Jimmy's apartment, and to make Howard's death seem like a suicide. In order to hide both bodies and make sure they're never discovered, Mike has Gus' men dig a hole in the superlab, and put both bodies inside, and then cover it up.

Construction of the superlab would then be completed, sealing the bodies up together for ever.,

Live Free or Die
DEA agents Hank Schrader and Steve Gomez survey the damages caused by the fire Walt and Jesse started in the superlab. Amongst all the debris, two bodies were uncovered that were burned beyond recognition. Originally, these were known to be the bodies of two guards that Walt had shot beforehand. Now, it is possible to interpret these two charred corpses as either those of the guards or those of Howard and Lalo.
