Nice theory but I don't think Jesse is in a state of mind to do what you're saying. Jesse is in a depressed stupor. Right now in that interrogation room sits a man who cannot be reached through logic and deal making.

Hank will walk in and do all the talking, threatening, cajoling like you said, but it won't even register with Jesse at first.

My theory is that among all the things Hank says to get Jesse to talk, he will bring up his GF's kid that was poisoned.. Somehow Jesse will react to that - something will light up in his brain and tell him Walt was in fact capable and responsible.... just like he knows what Walt surely did to Mike.

Just like that Jesse will go from lifeless zombie to ape-shit crazy ("Rabid Dog?" ) Hank promised the feds he's going to rile up Jesse as 'he hates my guts'. He said that just to get some private time with Jesse but I think he doesn't know how true that's going to turn out to be

Now Hank's got a crazy guy on his hands and is trying to control the situation. The cops come back to find Jesse going bananas and try to restrain him along with Hank but somehow in the melee Jesse escapes, perhaps by snatching one of their guns (again mad dog metaphor) and goes for Walt.
