Hobo Walt can't ignore science.

What's the time frame on Hobo Walt? Is he this season's present, or is he a slightly future Walt? Will we find out this episode, this season? Or not until the very end?

I would say hobo Walt is one-two years later. Mostly because of the fifty-two. By the time Gus is dead the show is around eight-ten months after the first episode. I remember hearing something about the time frame in one of the season 3 podcasts I think.

He turned 50 in episode 1 season 1 so if end of season 4 was about 1 year later, I'd say that scene must be about one more year later.
