Empire strikes back
knowing Hank, he figured out he would go to his place and see if he knows for sure. hank obviously let it out so then walt was ready for the next step, with the tracker and allI agree with the leverage Walt has, I just don't see the Walter White they've portrayed up to this point behaving how he did at the end of the episode. Walt becomes aggressive and defiant once he's pushed to it and his back is against the wall. I didn't expect denials or lying from Walt because I never expected him to instigate that confrontation in the first place. When he found the tracker I was wondering how is he going to tackle this? Leave the tracker there and make sure whoever is watching him has nothing to see, or get rid of the tracker and indirectly let whoever is watching him know that he knows he's being watched. He's out of the game and wants to stay that way, yet here he is (leverage or not) jumping head first into conflict.
All of that said, there's seven episodes left, so I understand establishing the antagonist/conflict quickly and amping up the tension. And despite my gripes with a couple of things, that final scene is up there with some of the best I've seen. I think we're about to see the most action packed final episodes of a series since The Shield.
if theres one thing on the show that is constant, is walt makes the best decisions almost anyone ever made when under pressure. thats why hes heisenberg
and again, he is 'out' but once he realizes hank knows, he isnt out anymore. he isnt finna lie down cowardly. walt got a lot of shyt figured out imo
yeah, but counting on walt forgetting the book was there is stupid. especially since hank knows walt saw gale's notes because he showed it to him himselfTo be fair, Walt was careless enough to leave a book with Gale's writing in it right next to the shytter like it was a Maxim magazine or something
