Imagine if Walt could craft lies as well as Gus or Jimmy. Hank hands him the journal and after a few seconds of flipping through it, Walt tells hank, "Wait a minute, I've seen this before. This are Gale Boetticher's notes." Hank would be surprised and ask if Walt knew him and Walt would say he was a fellow chemist from UNM and they'd met a couple times, he found him a bit eccentric but a decent guy and he actually spoke woth him a couple weeks ago. He showed him some of his notes, and he knew he it had something to do with amphetamines but Gale said he was working on a more economically viable alternative to Adderall. Walt could say he was the one who suggested phenylacetone but thought it could pose a risk of harmful side effects once the process added that single methyl structure to the molecules. Walt can then say Gale was grateful for the advice and lifted him a book he keeps in the bathroom. In the end, Gale is the mystery man who only succeeded in making pure meth because he consulted someone smarter than him. Walt is left only guilty of being nieve and not seeing what Game was really doing.
