Walt’s been such a successful liar that he’s become hubristic, which would be a nice trigger for his downfall. It should be obvious to him that Jesse isn’t buying his bullshit about Mike, but he’s successfully manipulated him so often that he just can’t imagine his usual tricks failing him. Now Jesse knows just how much of a brazen liar his former partner is, and that he doesn’t have a shred of respect for him. He’ll be questioning Walt’s past behavior, especially his theatrics when confronted about Brock’s poisoning, and sooner or later he’ll figure out just how badly he’s been had in this “partnership”. Judging from the first episode, I believe Hank may not be seeking vengeance for the moment, but Jesse is a much more plausible candidate.
