Oh no I meant when Walt originally went out there to bury the money in the first place.
My bad, makes sense. Actually, you would think that Walt would know that the van didn't have GPS. Even if he didn't check it Saul's guys should have.

Now that I think about it, it seems obvious that they were keeping him on the phone so he couldn't call anyone else.
I think Hank goes down in this shoot-out. In fact, I think that's why they cut it the way they did, so there's still the suspense of his situation for one more week. There's still lots to do with Hank gone. As a few have mentioned and I think I mentioned a season or two ago, Jesse and Walt is most likely the final confrontation. Which way it goes, and who's wants to do what to who is still open. But the the relationship of the dynamic duo is obviously the heart of the series.
The big reason I think this is because that call to Marie was a very 'last phone call' kinda moment. 'Good bye, I love you.'
Will also ever increase the myth of Heisenburg. Caught and cuffed and then gone again. Marie obviously would relay the information she heard when she finds out Hank is dead or missing. Now there's this guy out there that even the cops can't catch.
Having trouble cheering for Hank. He's going pretty far down the bad cop route. Course, Walt is pretty much threatening him, so I understand it. But yeah, he doesn't care for anyone or anything at this point other than tying up the case.
He's was pretty clever in this episode though.
Will be interesting to find out if Jesse or Hank recorded Walt's admission. I gotta imagine there's something to that.
Hank will die, and it won't kill the remaining story at all. Pretty obvious with the call to Marie. It would kill the insane build up entirely if some stalemate and subsequently a deal was made. No way at this point.
My prediction:
Spoiler!
After the gunfight Walt will be pissed as hell at the outcome, and I think Jesse will get away in the car as well (not sure if he has the keys, did walt leave them in the car?). As we know, family is a no zone for Walt, also they went against his orders. Jesse will try to flee (for good) as he knows he's a dead man. Walt will refuse to cook for them because of the events, but they'll insist. They've been good to Walt before now, but they're too money hungry at this point to put up with his refusal, so they'll in turn force him to cooperate in ways that will really hurt him. There was a mention of a "bad" moment involving a child upcoming (Holly) so this coercion by the meth group I think will involve Walt's family. He'll get away, though, obviously (fate of the family unknown at this point), but with Marie finding out about Hank she'll spill everything and tell the police about Walt being with him, which will implicate him. Walt knows this so he knows he has to get out. He'll call up Saul's guy and bolt. After, I think the group will hunt down and find Jesse after Todd suggests that he cooked with Walt long before and he can help them. They'll then keep him as their lab slave. Walt, with all the casualties he'll likely have faced by then, will plot his revenge in his time under his new identity and make his return. Takes ricin knowing he can't get out of this mess even if he survives. Ties up the gap just about perfectly. But who knows, I'm just trying to connect the dots here.

Walt's always been a complete amateur, he's just gotten away with it and been very lucky.
"Mr. White – he's the devil. He is smarter than you, he is luckier than you. Whatever you think is supposed to happen, I'm telling you, the exact, reverse opposite of that is going to happen."

I dunno, who knows how much actual shooting experience those guys have. Unrealistic? Sure. Impossible? Not entirely.
Those same guys just walked in gunned down a complete armed drug operation the week before without even a casualty and they can't hit two guys standing in the open with automatic weapons when they already had a minute to put them in their crosshairs during the standoff? Not only that but they shot first without warning. Come on man. That was 80's Rambo stuff there.

If Call of Duty taught me anything is that the AA-12 automatic shotgun would have been out of ammo in 4 seconds, so it annoyed me they showed it firing for a very long time. At least they got the accuracy right!
Great ending although when they opened up the automatic fire there's no way Hank and Gomez survive standing in the open there. Not a lot of realism in that gunfight.
Spoiler!
This angle does not make it seem as open as I thought.

Hank's phone call to Marie was eerily similar to Walt's call to Skyler after he blew up Gus and Hector in the nursing home. Just the tone of his voice and sense of relief.
I wonder now if Marie is responsible for the vandalism to the White house after learning of Hank's (possible) demise.

Probably not the most popular opinion here but I hope that ingrate Jesse gets what's coming to him. Walt had a point that if it wasn't for him, Jesse would've been dead by now.
Hank should get his too. He can't let things go and he should go down with his obsession over Eisenberg.
Gomi, well, sucks to be him. Maybe in his next life, he'll pick better friends.
I hope they all die, right after Todd bones Lydia

I'm hoping Jesse gets it too. Same with Hank. Loved both characters, but as soon as they squared off against Walt, I wanted them to get killed off. Had Jesse never known Walt, he would have been murdered by Crazy 8 in the pilot.
Hitting human targets hiding behind big metal things down range is probably really difficult in real life. Add to that all the movement and adrenaline and it's probably even worse.
I shot handguns at rotten fruit one time in a gravel pit and I was shocked to learn I couldn't run laterally and empty the entire clip into a watermelon.
