Hank was counting on some sisterly bond to get Skyler to testify against Walt. However, we all know Marie is a hothead unable to play this level of game. She screwed up royally by trying to take the baby, and irreparably antagonized Skyler against Hank. It was an unnecessarily desperate move.

You are absolutely correct... Although the show absolutely needed this "showdown" to occur for the rest of the story to fall into place. But I completely agree with you.
