Hank did let buck get beat up by thugs that one time

To me Buck and Hank's relationship was, at one point, was like a mentorship and Buck would have taught Hank everything he knew about propane and about the industry selling propane and its accessories. Over time Buck could get lazier and more spontaneous while Hank got better at his job and rose through the ranks. 20 years of gradual change on Buck's character but Hank still remembers Buck as his old wise mentor, and obviously still wants to respect him. Scenes like Buck remembering what he taught Hank, probably when he started working for him, about polishing tanks, it's touching.

We have to also bear in mind that Buck Strickland is something of a father figure to Hank. Hank suffered under Cotton's constant verbal and emotional abuse and is haunted by the feeling of never measuring up to his father's expectations. For all his other faults, Buck is at least somewhat reinforcing to Hank. He's willing to tell Hank that he's proud of him and show him the approval that Cotton never did. I also see shades of Bill in Hank's relationship with Buck. I think Hank and the gang are friends with Bill because they remember him for the man he was and less for who he is at present. And because they know Bill wouldn't have anybody else without them. It would also explain why Hank is almost unimaginably blind to Buck's downsides and unwilling to leave his employment at Strickland. Hank remembers Buck for the honest and caring businessman that he was rather than the washed-up shadow of his former self that Buck Strickland is at present.

Most shows would get the balancing off, like Buck becomes way too corrupt after being perfectly kind. They got the balancing perfect here. It's very subtle but very well pulled off. This is the show's best Hank-Buck episode. Like you said: Very touching.

Buck used to be very good at his job. He was a young and motivated small time business owner who just let success get to his head once he made bigger and better deals. He's actually kind of like a lot of people I know in West Texas. They start off as ideal, hard workers but once their company gets big enough and they can kick their feet up they kick their feet up /hard/

How very convenient that Buck got to sleep through the hangover for this beautiful moment.

Hank has such a forgiving and understanding personality.

I like to believe the company name changes from Strickland Propane to Strickland - Hill Propane one day. Hank definitely deserves it.

Ideally either when Buck retires, or leaves a will. He’d leave Strickland propane to Hank. His son doesn’t even need it, he has his own place.

Buck probably has one hell of a hangover.

Buck Strickland was drinking cerveza taking out on a joyride then crashed it funny scene 🤣

Remember the secret to getting Rich is having someone else do all the hard work.

Hank's conservative values bleed through here. Buck gave Hank a lot despite being a parasite later down the line. He gave Hank a career which allowed him to afford his home and support his family. For Hank he owes a lot to Buck but also wants that father son relationship he was raised to believe in.
