    I'm trying to place the exact scene you're referring to. In S4E04 Hank has a conversation with Walt about Heisenberg, which he believes was Gale's name, who is now as "deader than a Texas salad bar". I can't find a conversation with 'another detective'.

  • Tim Robert is his name. But you solved the question. Probably they're talking about fale.

There is a scene in S4E05 "Shotgun" where Hank is talking to Tim Roberts a detective at the Albuquerque Police Department:

Hank: You know, uh, Tim, look, I appreciate what you're doing, really-- Uh, you know, keeping me involved and all, but, uh, you know, finding this guy Heisenberg dead like this I have to say, it, uh kind of feels like closure to me, you know?

They are talking about the investigation into the murder of Gale Boetticher, who was secretly working for Gus Fring, as assistant to Walter White. The DEA are assuming that Gale is the mysterious Heisenberg .
