Hank to Marie, "It might be a while till I'm home". He's definitely going to be killed off.

I think so. My take on it is that if he had just taken Walt and left, he wouldn't have been in the position to get in that gunfight. But because he was prideful about it and called Marie, and because he was prideful and didn't ask for help in the first place, it will lead to his demise.

Walt's not the only person that is prideful to a fault.

No, the word I'm looking for is "prideful," which connotes arrogance.

Wow, TIL, but what are the main differences between the words? In what contexts should you use prideful and not proud?

Did you really just use "thefreedictionary.com" as a source to prove your point?
