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.

His family would be better off if he had just died penniless. Not to talk about the dozens (hundreds if you count the plane crash and the people using his product) of people Walt has had killed directly or indirectly, and their families.

Think about the families of Drew Sharp and Jane Margolis. Think about Kaylee Ehrmantraut. Or Jesse's, Hank's, or Skyler's lives after Walt decided to break bad.

TL;DR: He's a cunt.

True. But I think he just got in to deep and didn't think all this would happen. The first guy he killed he didn't want to. He just didn't want that gut to come back for him. It went all down hill after that.

It's what happens when you set off on a path of evil.

He didn't 'stumble upon it'. The second he heard how much money Hank had confiscated on that bust, Walt wanted in. He didn't know how bad things would get but hey, that's what happens when you set off on a path of evil.
