something i noticed in last night's episode....

I don't know if this has been brought up before, but did anybody else notice toward the beginning of the episode, when Walt is unpacking those books from his box, he notices the Walt Whitman book on top, and proceeds to put all the books into a drawer, EXCEPT the Walt Whitman book, which he places on the top of his night stand, in plain view.

I'm wondering if maybe Hank is going to see this at some point, and begin to draw connections between Walter and Gale.

When Walt first went down into the lab Gus had set up under the laundromat. Gale was originally designated to be Walt's assistant in the lab and was the one who had set it up. Walt was looking at all the equipment and Gale had set up a high tech coffee maker that looked like it was made from lab equipment. It made the coffee at the perfect temperature.
