I'm really glad they made Hank good at something. It is time for Hank and Dean to stop blowing. And Dean got a little nod for fixing helper.
That said, the episode was great but I was really looking forward to a Helper and Dean episode like Doc and Jackson joked about back in Season 1 commentary.

I don't know what to think of Hank. One the one hand, he's clearly developed the physical skills to be a real adventurer. He was quite tough as The Bat and--as another commented has pointed out--when auditioning for S.P.H.I.N.X. in "Pomp & Circuitry."
I think it's a stretch to call him "competent," though. In this episode, he jumped out of an airplane wearing what he though was a parachute, only to find out that it was a jetpack. Which he crashed, Rocketeer-style, into a coffee plantation! And a lot of his success as The Bat was due to his being wired on caffeine (it was established early on that he has a very low tolerance) and Venturestein's love of Batman.
I guess only time will tell whether Hank has what it takes to be a real crime-fighter/adventurer. From the Adult Swim sneak-peeks, it appears that he may fall in with 21's new S.P.H.I.N.X. organization.

Exactly. Hank has the individual skills to be a great Boy Adventurer but only under special circumstances can he bring them all together,
You know, Hank's reaction of coffee in some ways resembles the way people with ADD react to stimulants. Feeding their brain with speed actually helps them focus. It sort of makes sense. Hank has always bounced from one thing to another and never paid much attention to what people are saying to him.
