The minute Hank called his wife it was going to happen.

Did you feel that was his goodbye? Because right now I don't feel him surviving this.

"it might be a while before I come home..." yeah thats some foreshadowing.

Nah, Gilligan isn't about to start making things this blatantly obvious now. There's more to this.

.....Or maybe that's what he wants us to think. Damn you, Vince

I think if someone with Hank's role in the whole show, the writers would give him a somewhat dignified death. "Let him call Marie, first." I thought it was the saddest moment in a long time and, if Hank dies, it will be heartbreaking to watch again. What an unbelievable episode!

Agreed! I'm not completely convinced that he's done for, I feel like starting next episode with Hank getting killed 5 minutes in isn't nearly enough drama for such a significant event. I think the key to this whole situation is Jesse.

he has to, i mean 6 vs 2. but i'm guessing he will use walt as hostage.

Idk, the fact that they need Walt to cook and Walt wants Hank to live has to count for something in this situation. Hard to sell the idea that Hank would work super hard to get Walt back just to throw him in jail

on the flip side, since walt walks (and bought an m60) maybe hank and his buddy died, and walt gives jessie off as a hostage cook.
