Do you think the writers simply forgot about Sarah?  Sarah doesn't get 
enough credit for providing us with important clues.  We keep dismissing 
her (or the writers) as loony.

As I said before, Hank is probably working for Jean now.

He has probably discovered that his wallet is missing.  He has probably
cancelled his credit cards, applied for a new drivers license and
got another federal ID card.  Why should they have to show us all this?
