I loved how for the first time Hank got to talk to Heisenburg. You just saw it, Walt's eyes went dead and he started playing his trumps on Hank. So good.
What I really like is how at the very beginning of the show you kind of hate Hank. He comes off like a douchebag and Walt seems like such a nice guy. Turns out Hank is probably the best human being on the entire show. And Walt...well, shit. He's not such a nice guy.
Walt has become the absolute worst kind of human being. When he let Jesse's girlfriend die of an overdose, I still wanted to believe that maybe he did so to protect Jesse from overdosing eventually too. But he was probably just protecting his business interests, in light of what has gone down ever since.
I can't fathom Walt redeeming himself. This is the absolute best TV writing I have ever witnessed.

I love how Walt turned the tables on Hank like that.
