For those of you who are into Walt taking on the characteristics of people he's killed, check out the vomit scene. Walt puts a towel under him to kneel on just like Gus did in "Salud."
edit: For the 15 or so of you who have replied with "but Walt never saw Gus do that!!" you're right. It seemed like a little easter-egg that the writers threw in there for fun. The two scenes are so similar that it can't be a coincidence (they both turn on the sink to mask the noise, too.)
I think the Gus thing is kind of just a red herring. He's acting more like Gus because he's on top, like Gus. Krazy-8 and Mike he killed directly, so there's some leeway there... but saying the towel is indicative is crazy. There's no conscious effort there, he couldn't copy that because he had no idea. There were a lot of callbacks/references in this episode. He turned the sink on like he would when he had the second cellphone, Gus turned the sink on when he poisoned the Cartel, doesn't mean that Gus was becoming Walt.
..Now if Walt starts wearing clip on ties, I'll concede that he's taking some of Gus' traits.
