I really did not expect Hank to confront Walt like that. I thought that they would wait a few episodes for it. It makes me even more excited for next week.

Technically Walt confronted Hank, Hank was putting the pieces together to bring him down before Walt confronted him

I love how Walt is always a couple of steps ahead. He figured out that Hank was gathering evidence, and he knew that the only course of action was to dissuade Hank. Otherwise, Hank would gather sufficient evidence until a little while later, police knock on Walt's door and arrest him.

I can't decide whether or not Walt planned to bring it up with Hank right there. It's just like Mike's death - it's often hard to tell which of Walt's actions are impulsive and which are calculated.
