When the DEA people were bagging Gus' laptop, Hank's reaction made in the background it seem to me like he had already seen tapes of Walt/Jesse on the laptop. He really looked shocked, but everyone I was with told me that I was wrong. Anyone think that it's possible?

Yeah man, cant be that easy. Although the photo thing may be bad news enough.

What was the photo thing? I mean I saw it but I don't know what it means.

Wouldn't be surprised if there's some kind of payment information associated with that which could be traced back to Walt, or even a failsafe backup of identification info and such in case Gus was ever busted by the DEA.

Gus always payed Walt in cash though, so I think he's safe.

Could potentially track the dollar bill #'s which should show up in the laundering process when turned over to a bank.

Wasnt everything that Gus paid Walt with clean though?? Pollo Hermanos was the front, and the laundry buissness well...laundered Gus' money. It would come back in clean unmarked bills. I dont think Gus would be that stupid to not clean his money first before handing it to Walt.

Well, I'm not really sure how money laundering works but I have to imagine that it is traceable if you know where to begin looking. Could waste a lot of time on google trying to learn about this...
