I think the whole point of that scene was to just get us up to speed with those guys. They're most likely going to be some kind of antagonist during the last few episodes, and we really haven't spent much time with them. The most telling thing about them -- and this why I love the writing on Breaking Bad -- was the part when the guy wiped the blood from his boot, like it's just a normal everyday thing. You feel like you know how bad those guys are, even though the conversation was innocuous.

That opening scene was very Tarantino.
