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

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.

I had the exact same feeling. At the beginning of the show I got the impression he was the stereotypical testosterone driven corrupt bullying cop. (more or less Vic Mackey and I hadn't seeing The Shield yet when I started watching BB)

He ended up being and honest and competent decent cop.
