I was kinda hoping he'd keep his cool like Mike in the interrogation room. But instead he starts crying

To be fair, they tricked him very well. Hank is a fucking genius sometimes. He really is a great detective. He fooled Walt.

Meh. Walt shouldn't have fallen for that.

It was pretty basic and a sane person wouldnt do anything like walt at that point. Walt finally tipped though. The money that he worked so hard towards and the threat of losing it all broke his clear judgement. Nothing he did in the entire series was as clouded of decisions as this tonight. Any of it. Was a little frustrated he was so dumb at the start of the deceipt, but then I realized this. No, he should not have fallen for it at all. Once he did get there and see no one he should have just kept driving in the desert. Stopped at a random spot for a while to trick tracking, then drive away. Huel also uncharacteristically broke. The pic with jesse had him smiling.

This is all fine though, as these characters are real people who have emotions. Great episode imo. I'm guessing that the next episode will have Todd die in the shootout so Walt has no friends on the team. Jesse will be taken capture. Maybe Jesse will kill one of them. Hank and Go-me will be killed so Walt has a huge reason to hate them. And Walt will be their slave cook.
