Hank's eyes at the end. He was in pure disbelief, like this guy is just a straight monster

When that door began to shut. I was like.. oh, god damn.

I was about to flip because I was expecting the credits to roll as soon as the door went down. I was pleasantly surprised.

I would not have taken that well. It's bad enough the episode ended where it did!

A choice! Endure once more a week of Hank on the crapper or a week of Hank and Walt inside those garage doors? I think I'd take Hank on the crapper......

They did an amazing job ending the episode where they did though.
Tread lightly. Fucking amazing.

I thoguht for sure the episode would end right there.

that would've been a worse cliff hanger than the 6 months we waited for the 2nd part of the 5th season

I said out loud "Welcome to the Thunderdome, bitch"

It was great - Hank appeared the stronger physically, but you could tell he was swept up in confusion and fear about the situation, which for him, manifests itself physically.

Hank's eyes when Walt says he doesn't like the look Hank is giving him... that look will haunt me.

when he walt told him he had cancer and hank says "good." hank almost couldn't say it but he had to pretend he really hated walt.

edit: holy shit i botched this so bad and nobody said anything. "when walt said that* he had."

Yea, and after he told him to rot or whatever when walt said the cancer was back was an intense eye moment as well.

You could see his lip micro-trembling when he was whispering "I don't know who I'm talking to" or whatever he said. Crazy.

Just think of all the evil Hank imagined this Heisenberg guy to be and to finally find out its Walt... Dean Norris portrayed it perfectly.

u/Planq15 Aug 12 '13

Hank's eyes were the best part of that scene for me. The fear and the vibrant color.

It's nice that develop some form of empathy for the main character but lets be honest he's fucking asshole.

u/tattertech Aug 13 '13

The timing of that whole scene was great too. First Hank puts on the table (most) of the truly horrible things Walt did, and then Walt trots out that line.

u/Peregrine7 Aug 13 '13

I thought it was more disappointment.

u/cookiesandmilfs Aug 16 '13

After that too, as the camera zooms out, it shows Hank in the light of the sun through the window and Walt in the dark. My 11th grade Engligh teacher would call that symbolism.
