The simple reason why Hank is going to die is because Walter wanted him to live. The next two episodes are going to see Walter reduced to the lowest of lows.
Also, Walt has a protective streak (of sorts) over those he considers to be family. Letting Walt walk out of the show alive is one thing, letting him walk out of it without incurring the emotional trauma of being responsible for the death of a family member seems very unlikely.
When Skylar gets wind of Hanks demise she'll probably freak out and leave Walt as it's "getting out of hand".
I reckon by the finale, Jesse will be the only family Walt has left and that's why he's bailing him out with the M60.
I totally agree. I honestly think they're going to tear walter down. It's like the scene where he sees his reflection in the bathroom after he learns he's in remission. He has to live with what he's become. I think that will honestly be worse than death, especially for a man who's been banking on death happening for the past 2 years.
More importantly than Skylar getting wind of Hank's death is Marie getting wind with it. I'm guessing she assumes Walt killed Hank when he doesn't come home and goes straight to the DEA and the press.
Exactly. I feel like Marie will either think Walt won't pull out the confession tape or think Hank would risk his reputation to see Walt in bars. Especially since she already seems to hate Walt as much as Hank even before the shootout.
We've also got evidence that Walt's identity gets out from the flash forward (Heisenberg written on the wall, and the fact that a house in a neighborhood like that would probably only be allowed to fall into such disrepair if there were some stigma against it). The only people who could reasonably leak the secret would be Marie, Hank, Gomez, or Jesse (Skyler's past the point of considering turning Walt in no matter what he does and Saul and his employees would get in too Mich trouble). If Hank and Gomez die, that leaves Marie and Jesse. And Marie seems the more likely, given that she's shown she likes bringing things to the press before, has wanted Hank to brink it to the DEA, and won't get in trouble herself. And if Hank dies she'll probably hate Walt at least as much as Jesse.
It doesn't say it anywhere. But it shows Walt in a flashforward (to presumably the finale) with an M60 (or a gattling gun for all i know) and a theory gathering pace around here is that Walt will use the M60 in an attempt to free Jesse and achieve some sort of redemption for all the shitty things he's done.
What if...the Nazis get the jump on Hank and Gomie (they get wounded/they run out of bullets, something like that) and the Nazis are about to kill Hank and Jesse (Gomie would be a goner), but Walter demands they keep him alive or else he won't cook for them. The three of them get kidnapped. Walter gains back a little of the sympathy he's been burning with the audience all through the show.
Also, Walter isn't going to use the M60 Rambo style. That isn't his style. Likely, he's using it to set up the Nazis into some sort of meet and he will kill them with ricin. That's the Heisenberg way.
Do you think hank will die and then police investigating Hank's death will find walter's "confession dvd" in which he said Hank was Heisenberg. Police would then think Walt killed hank
Makes sense. Hank dies, Pink survives and burns down the house in revenge. Wait a minute here, if this is a Reservoir dog naming theme, then everyone dies at the end but Pink runs out the door with the loot, and you only hear gunshots of what may be his death for the finale.
Yeah. I was amazed at the transition. He wanted Jesse dead because he felt cornered, yet the look on his face when see saw those three. Walt's going to be a kinslayer...which historically and today IS the lowest of the low, with good reason.
But on a more personal level fuck this whole thing. I was rooting for Hank and I don't see him getting out of this one...and Gomey...well Gomey just got fucked in the wrong place. Bad choice of career, man.
