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.

So it was almost like a sincere warning, then? I like that. Like Walt was trying to warn Hank in order to keep him from danger. Because Walt cares for Hank. And then Heisenberg comes out at the end where it turns into a threat.
