Hank Investigates Walter's School | Crazy Handful of Nothin' | Breaking Bad

[@RealBono]

If they'd sent anyone else besides Hank to check out Walt's inventory he definitely would've been seen as suspicious.

[@vasilijchmerkovskiy27]

Hank probably reassured his colleagues about Walt by telling them to trust him and that he would help them in the investigation. It sounds bad but having a brother-in-law in the DEA is probably what allowed Walt to stay out of range for so long

Vince did such a good job not only portraying what kind of person Walt is/was but also how other people (especially Hank) treat him. Like all the fingers pointing at Walt and Hank wouldn't even consider him as a suspect for a second. Not only is he just not that kind of person, he is totally and completely incapable of pulling off these sort of crimes...except he isn't.

[@SamuelSchweiglen-ok9ws]

Right. Walt even says so later on, that he’s tired of living his life in fear and uncertainty. He craved to one day become a living breathing iron fist. It fell into perfect place since his front for hiding was already there for him, quite literally in plain sight, and Hank especially saw him as a man who’s a unassuming friendly high school teacher, never would he have reason to believe a man like Walt would have the will to even slightly step foot into something as dangerous as the drug/cartel world. To Hank, men like Tuco and the Salamancas were the only ones willing to live that lifestyle. Nasty psychotic vicious narcissists. No way would Walt be that type of man. No way would Walt have reason to be involved with even just a small scale criminal act, let alone successfully run an illegal drug organization. Walt was an extremely intelligent man, not just in science, but he just didn’t fully grasp and utilize it to his advantage until that lung cancer diagnosis.

[@ginpak7037]

Bravo Vince

[@RTU130]

Yea

[@imcallingjapan2178]

Maybe also ego and arrogance on the part of Hank. An outsider might suspect Walt's secretive behaviour and quiet manner are hiding something, plus the obvious circumstantial fact that Walt has the perfect means, opportunity and motive to manufacture drugs for easy money. But Hank knew Walt for years socially so completely overlooked all that, didn't consider something so obvious.

I was a student assistant for Chem 1 in high school so I got to help the Chmistry teacher do inventory, took a whole week and doubt you'd just have a sheet on the wall with pieces of glassware on it. Also high school labs usually have lots of little vessels for students to use, they aren't going to have a bunch of big glass pieces, how many reactions with large volumes are you really going to be doing and how much more would that cost to have dozens of sutdents do versus having them do it at a smaller scale?
