Hank really was the worst detective in the world. I knew it was Walter right from episode 1. Sheesh.

[brodystott]

Hank never would’ve found out if he had a smartphone

[Berder]

Imagine your life gets screwed up just because you left a book in the toilet...

[tankdogization]

The best way to end the first half of a final season.

[GameGeekJosh]

Hank was so shocked about this discovery, but he was also glad to be on the toilet at the same time to deal with the shock…

[jon_warburton]

Somebody pointed out something to me the other day: throughout the entire series the only person Walt never lies to is Hank

[michaelhall]

The most consequential dump in TV history.

[thomaswawrzyniak]

Know your enemies on the toilet
-Sun Tzu, The Art of War, probably

Fortunately I only started watching Breaking Bad around the time when the second half of Season 5 (effectively Season 6) started airing. I can’t imagine how pissed people were when they had to wait for ALMOST A YEAR to find out what this scene leads to.

The look of realization just bores a hole through the soul….well done, Dean Norris

[vedarthalva]

This is the moment where Walt Jr becomes an El Pollo Loco Chicken Combo Meal

[Wyrmwould]

Maybe I'm just a sucker, but I was so into this show that when this scene happened my jaw fell open. I think I actually said "oh no" out loud.

[imnotlarry]

Walter, the most cautious guy in the world, leaving that evidence in the bathroom like it was nothing. C'mon...

[WhatAHorribleNight]

For real tho - this is the last time we get to see normal Hank. 😕 He'd never be relaxed and happy again for the remainder of his life.

[Mii..]

1:28 When you check your son's search history...

[chrishottinger]

If they had smart phones back then Hank would’ve never found out it was Walter

[southerncoloradorailfannin]

That would of been funny if you heard a turd plop when Hank was looking up

[cooperbourke]

Imagine having to wait roughly 10 months to see the resolution to this. I love this Show!!! Its aged like a fine wine!

[judydodd]

this was the moment that hank became willy wonka

[SteadyEddie]

I could imagine a reality in which Walt sees Hank go into the restroom, remembers the book, and runs in to grab it while Hank is taking a dump
