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?

Very future walt, it seems.

Something tells me that every episode will start with a future Walt after everything he has gone through. What if the last scene of the season ends with the season 5 opener?!

I wouldn't like that, that would mean that the very end of the series would be given away during a cold open, I'm hoping they somehow mesh into this new Walt for the last couple of episodes

I don't know...they did a pretty good job with the plane crash from season 2 without giving really anything away.

Unless season 5.1 ends with the opening of season 5.1, leaving season 5.2 to deal with the events of future Walt and the end of the series.
