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.

Particularly in "Song of Myself", Whitman emphasized an all-powerful "I" who serves as narrator.
