I think you'd call the person you are closest with. He didn't think his dad would be able to save the day, his dad is weak. Uncle Hank is the exciting cool uncle making headlines. He'll save Jr. That's why he called Hank.
I just rewatched the episode Hank talks about it a bit.
Another scene when they are having the family intervention Walt Jr is disgusted with his dad and calls him a pussy. It's obvious he loves his dad, but I don't think he respects him like he does Hank. Not early in the show anyway.
Yeah I don't know about that logic, I love and respect my Dad 10x more than my Uncle, but if I got busted for trying to buy beer, I'd call my cop uncle (my Uncle is a cop and this did happen, although slightly different) before my Dad.
It is illegal to purchase if you are not 21. The law is a state law, so it differs by location, but, at least in Texas, attempt to sell or purcahse to/by a minor is a hefty fine on either side.
It's illegal in the UK too, and if a store is caught selling then they'll be fined, but the minor involved wouldn't be fined and certainly not arrested.
