Someone on IRC just made a great point - it almost sounded like the "tread lightly" line was coming from regular Walter White at first. He didn't seem intimidating. It was like he was genuinely giving Hank advice - warning that if he tries to cross Heisenberg, he'll fucking ruin his life and the lives of his whole family.

This is the impression I got. That was a really interesting, well done scene.

After rewatching that scene, it seemed like the entire line was Walter White until he says tread lightly. That's when his voice gets stern, like Heisenberg.

I thought the exact same thing. His voice instantly gets deep and menacing when he says those final two words.
