Over the course of the series, one of the most compelling storylines is the dynamic between brothers-in-law Walter White and Hank Schrader (Dean Norris), one, of course, being a secret meth cook while the other works for the Drug Enforcement Agency. After sharing all of his intel on the mysterious Heisenberg with his brother-in-law without knowing that he was staring at the culprit the entire time, Hank eventually realizes that Heisenberg was Walt all along.

It all comes to a head when Hank discovers one clue that ties Walt to Heisenberg, leading to several incredibly tense confrontations until he finds the evidence he needs to arrest him, reciting his Miranda rights while finally handcuffing the criminal he'd been hunting for the past year. Just as it seems that Walt will finally be put away, however, the neo-Nazi Jack Welker (Michael Bowen) and his gang arrive, shooting Hank in the head and poetically burying him in the very hole Walt dug to hide his money.
