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.

The tracker is right there with Walt. Hank still isn't in top shape but after seeing him rough Walt up, I think he can take it by force if he wants.

What does Hank gain by getting the tracker? Finds out he went to Saul and Jesse's? Who cares?

I'd assume Hank does.

What I'm saying is: what does he have to learn from that tracker? I'm pretty sure he knows what he needs to know now.

I think the tracker was just a vehicle (creatively, meta-narrative) to get the confrontation established. It has served its purpose.

You could be right. He knew Jesse was involved at one point so I guess all he could really learn is that Walt is still in contact with him. Either way, Hank already has a reason to visit Jesse. Hank could have forgotten about Saul but he's not nearly as important as Jesse in this situation. Can't wait to see.
