The "I am the danger" "I am the one who knocks" speech comes from a place of fear- the fear that Gus could easily kill him or his entire family which makes it 10x better imo. The title of the episode is 'Cornered'. If you look at Walt's expression during that scene he looks as if he's trying to protect his fragile ego while also trying to hold on to the role of the protector, the head of the family. Aside from turning into Heisenberg I like to think the dark red shirt he reveals when he takes off the light red shirt is like an opposite trope type thing for the front he puts on.

Holy, yeah that would be a very intimidating first role! I bet Bryan Cranston is a super nice guy though, so he'd make it easier.

Fun fact: The guy who played Bogdan had never acted before and was, ironically, a real local scientist. His wife and kids wanted to be extras, so he drove them down to a casting call to have their pictures taken. While waiting, the extras casting director saw him and asked if he'd also like his picture taken, and he obliged. Later when going through headshots, Vince Gilligan loved his look so much that he offered him the part despite the complete lack of acting experience, and the rest is history. I can't imagine my first role being opposite Bryan Cranston, but he totally killed it imo.
