La trampa

One of the most frequent coarse terms in this episode. Can express anger, affection between very close male friends, or pure insult depending entirely on tone and relationship. In criminal/narco contexts it skews aggressive.

Versatile Mexican expression used to signal agreement, urge action, or give approval. Context determines whether it means 'let's go', 'alright', or 'come on, hurry up'.

Plomo literally means 'lead' (the metal), and plomazo refers to a bullet or gunshot. Common in narco-inflected Mexican speech to describe shooting.

Used figuratively to describe the most trusted assistant or second-in-command. Understood across all registers and regions.

Expression of disbelief or refusal. Can mean 'stop messing around' or react to shocking news. More strongly colored than 'no manches'.

Literally 'put their legs/paws in it.' A common idiom for making a serious blunder or mistake, usually one with consequences.

A distinctly Mexican saying. A huarache is a sandal, so the image is 'never taking a step without your sandal on', meaning to always be prepared and calculated before acting.
