We already know Hank's character won't be bribed with the money Walt has. I believe he will start to investigate Walt in secret, building a case and along the way not wanting to believe it. I don't think Walt is done cooking by any means. Something is going to happen with one of his buyers and they are going to go for the kill. I'm guessing Walt's family gets kidnapped. Walt will have no other choice than to go out with a bang. Hank will be with Walt due to his sister being involved. Hank will explain how it's all going to go down. Walt will mow down a few with that big *** machine gun. Walt will ask Jesse for help which Jesse will say no. Walt gets shot or Jesse will come in and help while getting shot as well. Hank will take out most of the guys, they have a heart to heart. Skyler is hit with a bullet and dies. Walt explains why he did it, apologizes for everything and dies in Hanks arms. Hank and Marie adopt the kids.
Or maybe Walt doesn't get shot and neither does Hank. Skyler dies and Hank tells Walt his only choice is to leave and go die from the cancer or he will arrest him.

I think some of you are forgetting the first scene of this season.
Remember the beginning of the season where Walt has a beard and is in that Denny's with the fake ID?
The rest of the season will be Walter on the run while his brother in law is chasing him down.
Don't forget that this is also his 52nd birthday so there is about nine months to go.
I still think it makes sense that Walt has to decide to save Hank or not. The whole season has been about Walt turning into a bad guy, ordering people to get killed without remorse. It seems logical that he is going to have to make a choice involving Hank.

A friend and I have been discussing a little theory about something we think is going to happen in the final episodes. I don't know if this is something that others have noticed and discussed on the internet or whatever, but I thought I'd share and get some thoughts.
The theory: Walter is going to kill Skyler.
What makes me believe this is that whenever Walter personally kills someone, he takes on a specific character trait from the killed individual.
If you remember in season 1 when Walter had Krazy-8 tied in the basement, he would bring him sandwiches, and Krazy-8 would tear off the crusts.
After Walter kills him there is at least one scene (I don't even remember which season, sorry) when Walter makes a sandwich and neatly cuts off the crust, just like Krazy-8.
After Walter lets Jane die in her sleep, which leads to the crashing of the airplane, the eyeball from a teddy bear of one of the passengers falls into his pool.
We see several times after the crash that Walter still has the eyeball. I remember one specific instance is in season 4 when we see it in a kitchen drawer at his house.
At the end of season 3, Walter is forced to order Jessie to kill Gale.
As we all know, in season 5 we see that Walter has taken on Gale's love of Walt Whitman poems via a book given to him by Gale, himself.
In season 4 Walter kills Gus Fring...
...and in season 5 takes over his empire.
Early on in season 4 there is a scene in which Walter follows Mike to a bar to try and convince him that Gus needs to go. In that scene Mike orders his drink "on the rocks", but Walter gets his without ice.
After Walter kills Mike in season 5, Hank offers him a drink in the final episode. This time Walter gets his drink "on the rocks."
Now, back up to the first scene of season 5 when Walter is at Denny's.
Here we learn that Walter is using a different last name. Skyler's maiden name--the trait Walter takes from her after he kills her.

Skyler is the only thing standing between Walter and the thing he wants: his children. At least, that's what he tells others, and himself, that's what he wants. I also feel like Walter has nearly no love for Skyler anymore, and thus, would be open to the possibility of killing her if he felt like it was the only way he was going to be with his children again.
We've seen Walter go from being torn up inside at the idea of having to kill someone (Krazy-8) to murdering a plethora of inmates in the prison without any hesitation. Now, we need to see him do something we haven't seen him do before. Something that brings him even further down this dark path. Killing his wife, one of the people he got into the drug business for in the first place, would take him there.
Because of all of this, I thought throughout season 5 that Walter would kill Skyler eventually, even before I saw all of the evidence about Walter taking on character traits of his victims.
And there's a little "rule" you hear people say a lot in playwriting (that applies to all types of fictional writing): "If you're going to put a gun on the wall, it has to go off by the end of the play." For the entire series there has been "a gun on the wall": the ricen. The writers have been dangling it in front of us for as long as I can remember. It would seem strange if the ricen was never used on anyone. We know Walter still has it. I believe he's going to use it. On Skyler. After he does, Jessie might start to get suspicious about Sklyer's death and how similar it sounds to the way Walter originally told him the ricen would kill someone. How she was fine, then all the sudden just dropped dead one day.
It would create a lot of interesting drama between characters. Now Hank has very good reason to believe Walter is Heisenberg. Jessie is suspicious of Walter killing Skyler with the ricen. Even Hank will be suspicious about Skyler's sudden death with the knowledge that Walter is a drug lord.
I don't know how it all resolves, but I think the killing of Skyler is what will set off the bomb of the remaining events of the show.

Sounds like a plausible theory. We shall see.
