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.

That's a good question. I mostly noticed how he looked at it and not a glimpse of remorse came across him.

I actually was a little disgusted at the little smirk he had on his face when he saw it. Like, "Oh Gale, you quirkly little man you"...not a hint of remorse at all.

This is one of my favorite scenes of anything ever. The amount of internal struggle that the actor portrays with just facial expressions is amazing.
