Breaking Bad's final season opens with a flash

“I never thought for a moment that the show would put Walt and Hank in a room together with the truth between them.”

Indeed. I fully expected a protracted cat-and-mouse game between Hank and Walt, as the writers treaded water for at least a few episodes. But I’d forgotten just how amazing their work actually is, and when Hank closed the garage door… I realized they’re every bit as committed as Walt/Cranston was when he first shaved his head.

One request - even after replaying the scene several times, I just couldn’t make out what Hank said immediately after Walt made his “right hand to God” gesture - to which Walt replied “That’s not going to happen.” Can anyone fill me in?
