After Walt leaves Hank's garage, the two men turn, and face each other in a stand off. They're framed at midlevel, with their hands by their side, fingers twitching, as they wait to draw.
Walt makes a break for his car, speeds away, but fails to get Skylar on the phone.
Hank beats him to that — he wins the draw.
In genuine good guy mode, Hank tries to rescue Skylar, but the plan is poorly though out. Offscreen, he tells her over the phone that he knows the truth about Walt, and they meet at a diner to discuss it. Hank doesn't know how to approach the situation. At the diner he gives her a faint waive, like they're two friends meeting for lunch, and then awkwardly hugs her.
The immediacy of the confrontation has shocked Skylar, pushing her away from accepting Hank's help, and his attempt to have her record a confession right then and there causes her to flee.
