I think you misread both the taking of the baby and the vitriol that Walt was spewing on the phone.

He took Holly because he was in agony over the dissolution of his family and Holly was the one person left who was still family and didn't hate his guts. And all the stuff about how Skyler needed to be grateful for everything HE has done and following his directions exactly and not toeing the line was to absolve her of her participation because of course he knew the police were listening. It was the last bit of kindness he could do for her. And his face at the end of the phone conversation... god damn, he knew it was probably the last things he would ever say to her.

Heartbreaking episode. Seriously, I can't even handle it. Most depressing show in the history of forever? I think yes.
