[ No no no no no, one does not make threatening suggestions about his own family (he can only guess the 'unsavory individual' might be Pinkman), then openly threaten his career practically on his own doorstep and expect no retaliation. Not after he just returned from suspension, not after his brother-in-law's already been through his own version of Hell and back. He'd wanted it to be civil. Hank had been ready to try and explain a little, hoping to display Walt in a more sympathetic light, but red is all he can see at the moment. He can't even ask for more details on what the hell Chilton means, though he wants to.
The ground beneath them both actually tremors as he curls his free hand into a fist, and there's no attempt at a bluff here. Hank isn't trying to peacock, he's keeping himself from striking this fucker down here and now for threatening both his and Walt's reputation, and more. If he's trying to strike a nerve, he's succeeded, but it's not something Hank's going to forget. Any retaliation can't come now, which is clear enough by how he steps back, watching Chilton with a hooded glare, the same way he'd watch any criminal. ]
No. I like us all getting along. Have a nice day, Doc.
