In other words, when will chem teacher turned drug kingpin turned reformed drug kingpin Walter White (Bryan Cranston) feel the wrath of his brother-in-law DEA agent, Hank (Dean Norris)?

Breaking Bad is already halfway through its fifth and final season, having aired the first eight episodes last summer. The remaining eight, which will wrap up Walter’s wild, meth-fueled ride, will kick off on August 11 on AMC.

The midseason finale ended with Hank discovering that Walt is Heisenberg, the meth cook extraordinaire who’s long eluded his grasp. Naturally, the OMG realization happens while he’s taking a crap.

Hank’s epiphany adds even more fuel to the burning question that has been looming over the series since day one, when Walt was diagnosed with the Big C: Will he live, or will he die?

We can’t wait for what will surely be an explosive resolution to the AMC drama.
