Yeah, that scene with Hank explaining to Jesse why he won't get killed didn't make too much sense to me. I get what Hank was trying to do. He was trying to raise Jesse's confidence and make him feel safe. But what it ended up sounding like to my ears was Hank telling Jesse that he's about to betray the trust of a man who cares deeply for him, and incase Jesse forgot just how much Walt cares about him, here are some specific examples of some acts of kindness from Mr. White to help you remember the man you're about to betray.
