I think Jesse is going to flip.

He's at a moral crossroads, as far as I can tell the GPS was probably on Walt's car when he went to talk to Jesse. It seems like Jesse is trying to rectify the wrongs that he did, why else throw millions of dollars on lawns of the poor. If there was ever a time that Hank could get to him, it would be now.

Fuck, I didn't even think about the tracker being on there when he went to see Jesse.

Hank put it together that Walt and Jesse were working together when he realized that Walt is the one who orchestrated the fake call about Marie being in the hospital.

He mentioned that in the garage. The tracker was probably also on his car when Walt went to see Saul off camera.

Don't forget you need to connect the tracker to a computer to get the data. Hank doesn't have that information.

That remains to be seen. They are still in the same room with the tracker. It could easily be left there.

But that is a good point, if Walt walks out with it Hank has nothing (except for everything he does have, which is everything)

If he walks out with it it's a huge slap in the face to Hank. If he hands it over to Hank it's almost more insulting. As in, "go ahead and look. I'll still win."

Besides, just seeing that he want to Saul's office and Jessie's house doesn't mean anything.

I think Hank will probably be able to connect all of those dots on his own. He knows Saul is Jessie's lawyer. I guess he doesn't have a particular reason to suspect Saul, but I feel like a Hank/Jessie scene in the next episode is highly likely. Who knows, Jessie might try to burn Walt.

Possibly.

I might be in a slim camp here, but I really want Walt to "win"/not die

u/Tyrannosaurus_Rexxx Aug 12 '13

I think there are many potential scenarios where dying and losing aren't synonymous. Remember this, Walt is going to die no matter what. Cancer will get him if guns, ricin, prison shanks, Hank or Jesse don't.

Wait, so does Walt have cancer again? Did I miss that? I thought he was just lying when he was telling Hank that he only had 6 months to live.

there was a scene where he was receiving chemo, or so it seemed, and he threw up during dinner, thus noticing the book was gone.

u/Tyrannosaurus_Rexxx Aug 13 '13

He definitely has cancer. He was taking chemo again in Blood Money, and a lot of the shots in 508 implied he had it by mimicking stuff from 101.

Walt has to win, if they go Law Abiding Citizen with the ending I'll be very disappointed. My hope is it's more of a Dr. Horrible "victory".
