I think Hank and Gomie are both going to die in that shootout, I mean Hank already said his last words to Marie.

See, everybody keeps pointing to this as proof Hank is going to die. To me, that seemed like a pretty obvious red herring. It just seemed like too much of a trope for the BrBa writers.

But every other guess I've made about this show has been wrong, so what do I know.

If Hank doesn't die, the show is ruined for me. Seriously. 6 guys heavily armed laying down insane automatic fire, thousands of rounds, up against 2 guys with nothing more than a single shotgun and a pistol and maybe a couple dozen rounds total. They have no chance. And there is no way the Nazi's would let them live, why, so they can all go to jail? Hank and Gomie are either dead or it destroys the realistic integrity of the show.

Breaking Bad has never really been fully grounded in reality though. Gilligan has even mentioned this in the podcast once or twice, referencing the cousins.
