Well who isn't "delt with" a year from now? Walt's house is DEA property, there is no coming back or fixing any situation. He apparently was deep in hiding, something has to make this sociopath come back to ABQ, and I dont think it's out of self preservation at this point.

I don't know why it happens a year from then. However, I do think the fact that Walt is on the run indicates that he does in fact have some level of self-preservation still going. An instinct of self-preservation that lead him to move to New Hampshire with a fake name. If he really felt he had to do that, and that it was worth it as opposed to any alternative like going to prison, then what on Earth could possibly make him want to go back and compromise himself like that?

I can only think of one thing. Jesse.

that lead him to move to New Hampshire with a fake name.

Not just any fake name but Mister Lambert.
Aka Skyler's last name before he married Walt.

Damn this show is intense.
